Saas Ko'sah Shrine Tips and Tricks

★ How to Defeat the Guardian in Saas Ko'sah Shrine ★
Use magnesis on a metal block to block its spinning attack. Parry its spinning attack. Glide during the spinning laser attack. Dodge the lasers and close in on the guardian.

Use Magnesis on a Metal Block to Block Its Spinning Attack

One of the guardian's first attacks that you should look out for is its spinning attack. First, it will jump back and from its position, then it will start spinning and charge at you.

When this happens, use your magnesis to lift the metal block from the floor and use it to block the guardian's spinning attack

Parry Its Spinning Attack

Alternatively, you can parry its spinning attack. It takes some practice though and blocking its attack can quickly lower the durability of your shield. It's best to use a Guardian-type Shield against it as it has higher resistance to attacks from Guardians.

How to Parry (Perfect Guard)

Glide During the Spinning Laser Attack

After the guardian's health drops to about 50%, it will start spinning around while firing a laser. Use the updraft it creates to glide in the air and safely approach the guardian. You can use whatever weapon you have in your arsenal to land a hit on it and stagger it.

Dodge the Lasers and Close In On the Guardian

Once you have whittled the guardian's health down to critical level, it will start charging for several consecutive beams. Dodge these beams while trying to get close to the guardian then quickly attack it while it's recharging. Get back when it's close to firing more beams. Repeat this process until it is defeated.
