How to Climb Cliffs and Scale Walls

Climbing cliffs and walls can be done by using Echoes and Reverse Binding in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (EoW). Read on to learn about the different forms of verticality that you can do using Echoes, as well as the best echoes for climbing in this guide.

How to Climb Cliffs and Walls

Use Echoes or Reverse Bind

Zelda can use different Echoes to overcome obstacles and traverse high places. From reverse-binding on a Crawltula to climb up walls to stacking Soft Beds to build makeshift stairs, Echoes of Wisdom's Hyrule allows players to use their creativity to climb and scale nearly any surface that they can see.

List of All Echoes

Use Any Bed and Tornando to Launch Yourself to the Sky

Summon any bed echo(Old Bed, Soft Bed or Zelda's Bed) and stand at the top of it, go to the edge and then summon a Tornando at the top of the bed to launch it. This is helpful in situations where you want to reach a high ledge, or just wants an option to traverse the field quickly.

Additionally, you can also summon Tornandos consecutively in order to boost the bed higher.

Best Echoes for Climbing and Scaling

Soft Bed

One of the first Echoes that Zelda acquires, you can summon and stack multiple Soft Beds to create makeshift stairs. Perfect for climbing not-so-high ledges as well as crossing medium-to-arge gaps via a makeshift bridge. Plus, you can rest on the bed to restore hearts while in the middle of traversing!

Water Block

Zelda can use Water Blocks to build a tower and scale even higher places and swim through tight spaces in cliffs if laid on top of each other. Can also extinguish fires should you find yourself in a hot situation.

Platboom

An echo obtainable from the Secret Gerudo Dungeon, Platbooms can be used as an elevator to reach high-up places and works almost anywhere. However, due to their large size, Platbooms can be difficult to use in tight spaces. This Echo can also be summoned to attack and crush nearby enemies.

Crawltula

Crawltula can be summoned and Reverse-Bonded to allow Zelda to climb walls and hang on ceilings. While good for vertical movement during the early game, summoning a Crawltula Echo can be costly, so make sure to only use it when you're scaling really high terrain.
