    the sheikah slate w/Zelda is also extremely powerful since runes recharge faster. she cannot be damaged while controlling the bomb, if you do magnesis followed by a y attack it'll grab the crate she pulls out of the ground, hold it above her head until rune recharges, throw it at an enemy to bring out the weak point guage and freeze them with stasis. her cryonis rune is also extremely powerful. just start a battle with all the rune damage up meals and she is a power house.

    honestly, you just don't know how to use these characters effectively. Yunobo, when fully upgraded, with his enhanced ability can bring out and destroy a weak point guage almost instantly with a boosted yyyyx combo if you cancel it with a dodge right when he slams into the ground. if you tack attack speed boosts he is unstoppable. with the great fairy's enhanced ability, the one that throws the flowers forward is unstoppable. with timely dodge-cancelling you can endlessly throw them.

    Every character is so detailed but revali lacks so much information. You definitely want to stay airborne at all times not just to evade most melee hits, but his basic Y-string hits a very large cone like area, use midair attack seals and watch as the outposts get taken almost immediately. Staying airborne also gives him one of the longest ranges in the game, which helps against strong enemies and bosses who like to move around and gives you more time to counter them with the right Sheika slate

    I highly agree with Mipha's placement definitely one of the best characters

    Honestly tho Impa kinda bad in hard mode against bones she deos shit damage like I used her alot at the start against the hordes but once I got to the bigger boses she was shit, barley did anything took so long to chip away at the heath. I used link and far by I find he is amazing he has a great special his bow is good at hiting the eyes on the guardians and Hinoxs. If you upgrade his range he takes out alote more enemy's than impa and you don't need to charge up, enemy's not always there to.

    They are not that good, not only is there hit box ginormous but all of there moves and combos leave them incredibly open to hits. Also everything this character does gets outclassed by a lot of characters. To give one example the special charge rate is easily outclassed by Impa if they have any symbols at all (which you always have) another is Link with his stasis giving him a perma stun and easily being able to kill any boss with it. They are also terrible if you want to go fast.

    Great Fairies are way stronger than Impa, they are the strongest in the game. It doesn’t matter that they have a big hit box of because their range is massive. Kaysa’s ability recharges the special attack bars faster than Impa and without clones, Tera’s ability is fast and has a lot of range, Mija’s ability gives you a force field that protects you from attacks and it makes everything easier, and finally Cotera’s ability if used correctly can take down Calamity Ganon with only one stasis.

    to be totally honest i despise this list, because i’ve found monk to be impossibly broken. their final combo move, which summons 10 metal balls, forces enemies into the state where they have exposed weak point gauges, even when they’re mid move. furthermore, they have great damage, and using their unique ability alongside the shrine allows them to decimate weak point gauges, and when they dodge they leave behind explosive doubles allowing for damage even on missed dodges. maz deserves credit

    16 Anonymous Anonymous almost 5 yearsReport

    King Rhoam = S+++ tier. You can use slow strong attacks on slow enemies, or quick attacks for chipping weak point gauges, plus every strong attack is doubled with his unique ability. Also Kohga deserves more credit. When used right, he can shred gauges.

    15 Anonymous Anonymous almost 5 yearsReport

    Kohga should probably be higher, due to the fact his special ability can decimate weak-point gauges when done right. His bomb rune can also have the same effect when used against an enemy with a weakness to bombs.

    14 Anonymous Anonymous almost 5 yearsReport

    1: one of the great fairies' unique attack can lower defence and when done 7-8 times they become broken, as well as their fourth combo can force out weak point gauges. 2. Zelda's sheika slate is actually broken. Her magnisis in combination with her first regular attack, when activated, forces out weak point gases, and using stasis, the third combo used quickly and then activating the rune will give you a free weak point smash. Take this with a grain of salt. Most of the characters are misplaced

    13 Anonymous Anonymous almost 5 yearsReport

    Impas the best, but on her own? Not that great. You pretty much need to use those clones to use her, but when you do, I feel like she’s more holy than hylia herself.

    12 Anonymous Anonymous almost 5 yearsReport

    I think Yunobo needs a bit more credit here. While it does take second to use his special ability, every attack boosted does armor damage and can knock enemies out of their attacks.

    I love using Teba! Zipping around helps to avoid enemy attacks like guardian beams. But if you want to stand still while fighting a strong enemy, lock on, hold the unique action button, spam X until he launches a bomb arrow, then release the trigger.

    10 Anonymous Anonymous almost 5 yearsReport

    Hestu is great! With his korok friends, he takes out weakpoint gauges out almost as soon as they appear. Any combo that doesnt bring out the korok leaf will do. His attack speed may seem slow until you realize that each shake of his maracas do damage and he shakes multiple times in his standard Y string. Also, his shaka maracas (the blue ones) have a hidden seal that will help you locate hidden koroks.

    I highly disagree with Kohgas Placement. It only takes one combo to fill the bar and it also takes only 2 combos for him or even less to reduce the weak points completly. His personal ability is just OP, reducing the weak points with it is extremly easy, mostly 3/4 of it is gone completly. For taking out bosses, there is no better character then Kohga. He is hard to handle but if you manage it you can kill Moblins and compareable enemies including every type of guardian except malice ones.

    or it might just be that I don’t use unique abilities very often.
