Master Mode Notes - Henceforth will be noted simply as "Master Notes", throughout the guide.



Upon awakening in the shrine there is absolutely no difference in the games mechanics until you get outside. Just a fair warning it gets tough! You will have to use all the knowledge you have acquired and all your combat skills as well as playing the game to it's full potential. Whatever you learned or thought was unnecessary in Normal Mode, will probably apply to Master Mode.



A few examples would be, sneakstrikes, shield parrying, flurry attacks, and perfect dodges. Setting weapons and enemies on fire, using your surroundings to damage enemies. Planning attacks are an integral part of Master Mode and of course cooking and hunting to Survive. Your skills will be tested and if you are truly a fan of not just this game, but the entire Legend of Zelda franchise, this mode is for you. So if you want to "Git Gud" pick up some Hylian Shrooms and head over to your next best friend, The First Blue Bokoblin!

Follow the Sheikah Slate:

Master Notes I mentioned above to prepare for the worst, and your first enemy is just that. A nasty Blue Bokoblin will show us players just how tough Nintendo games can be, and the increase of difficulty in Master Mode. These guys have tons of Hit Points and with little power to even no weapons at this point or runes its tough. You can sneak pass this one and even run directly for the marker. Just watch your Stamina Meter and dodge attacks when necessary. If you want to gear up a bit, which you probably should do, as well as get used to harder combat, use a Sneakstrike on this Blue Bokoblin. You can then run up the Hill near the old man and rinse and repeat. You can even roll the boulder all the way from the top down into the Blue Bokoblin. Like I mentioned before there is always an Option. I feel Nintendo truly planned the game ahead for this mode with the utmost level of integrity.

After Activating the Sheikah Tower, all towers are then activated and you will drop down from the Great Plateau Tower and meet the Old Man again. Heading directly across the small moat, you will encounter your first group of Octo Air Platforms. These are Octo Balloons that hold up enemies on wooden beams in the air. This gives them a huge advantage in combat. For now we want to avoid them. Head for the Oman Au shrine and pick up the EX Treasure Chest, then activate the shrine and enter it. Inside the Shrine Solve the puzzle like normal, ( refer to the above section or shrine section if still lost ). The problem in Master Mode will be the Guardian Scout Enemy. Use the Metal Block with Magnesis from left to right and slam the Metal Block into the Guardian Scout. This will either kill it, or knock it off the ledge into the water. Either way you are safe to complete the puzzle, collecting the Spirit Orb will refill your Heart Meter.

Getting to Ja Baji Shrine can be rather simple to get to from Oman Au Shrine. Just stay along the northern edge of the cliff on the Great Plateau. Use your marker and get to the Stationer Guardian. From that point just climb the wall from behind, enter and activate the shrine. Be sure to see the rest of this guide for details on the puzzles inside. Most importantly be sure to pick up the Traveler's Claymore near the bombable wall inside the tunnel of this Shrine, it's going to be very useful.

Lynel enemies are at the Great Plateau right at the start of Master Mode. We have no chance at killing them efficiently enough at the moment so stay far away, run past them after they turn around and start walking. The next problem is the Blue Bokoblin enemy camp, with two Blue Bokoblins. Be sure not to alert the lynel, and you can shoot the Courser Bee Honeycomb on the tree. If you shoot it with an arrow they will chase into both Bokoblins. The bokoblins will run away and if done correctly you can even acquire their weapons as loot, without having to do battle. Does it get any better, other than having a girlfriend in real life? I wouldn't know thus... Breath of the Wild .... Continue past the Bokoblins and the Lynel. Head towards the Old Man's Cabin. Get the Korok on top of the cabin and collect some Stamina Shrooms. Do some hunting here as well. There are some birds, lizards, and some Summerwing Butterflies. Inspect the cabin and then cook some meals to keep warm for the fourth shrine. * I may have mentioned Keh Namut as the third shrine to progress to. It seems the game has a strange unmentioned Linear Path to playthrough, as I replay the game a second time on Master Mode. There may be a few chronological mistakes in the Original Walkthrough in this case.* When you have done some hunting and cooking, chop down the tree with the Woodcutter Axe and cross the gap. You can defeat the two Bokoblins by knocking them off the cliff with arrows or bombs. You may also climb the rock that leads up the mountain and drop bombs down from below. This may take longer and is a bit cheap, but effective. When the two Blue Bokoblins have met the afterlife, throw a bomb at the breakable wall and loot 5x Fire Arrows. After acquiring the 5x Fire Arrows, we should also have picked up a bow by now. One of the Bokoblins has one at the nearest camp if you missed one. Defeat the first Blue Bokoblin that sounds the horn on top of the short wood watch tower. Kill him before he alarms the others and take his bow and arrows. This spot is tough and I died several times, however the fire arrows are your friend. Use them on the Blue Bokoblins to weaken them a bit. Bomb the wooden barricade with Cube Bombs or Round Bombs to reveal another bee hive. Alternatively you can and should do this before attacking the next three Bokoblins head on. The bees will once again chase the Blue Bokoblins away after shooting the hive with an arrow. Afterward, you can pick up the Treasure Chest for a massive reward in 5x Bomb Arrows! Just one well timed or aimed shot from Even the Traveler's bow will destroy the opposition here. Clean up the little Hit Points they have and head back to where we found the 5x Fire arrows. I mentioned a small rock ledge from before, head to that rock after crossing the log bridge we cut earlier. From there you can Climb all the way to the next shrine. Use the rocks to rest and refill your stamina one at a time. Do not use the jump command, have patience and climb slowly eventually you will reach the shrine. Inside the shrine complete the puzzle and make sure to get the Iron Sledgehammer and the Traveler's Shield.

You should fast travel back to the Shrine of Resurrection from the Owa Daim Shrine. You may also want to use the cooking pot at the Old Man's cabin if you forgot to prepare with some Cold Resistant meals and elixir's. When you are ready to go, were going to head directly for that marker pin, towards the River of the Dead. Do not head into the cold areas just yet or you will have to use an Elixir or Warmth Meal. Instead hook around the warmer mountain until you see the broken bridge that we must use Magnesis on to form a path. There will be a Blue Bokoblin here on an Air Raft. He will be alone so you can shoot regular arrows at him or throw a well timed rolling bomb to knock him off the Air Raft. You can also use an arrow to shoot one of the Octo-Balloons and he will fall into the freezing water. Forget about the chest that drops off the Air-Raft for now and run quickly up the the Keh Namut Shrine, by circling around the mountain. Complete the Shrine and its puzzles, be sure to get the treasure chests here as we will need everything we can get. After completing the shrine you can let your quest update after meeting the Old Man again. We now should fast travel back to the Shrine of Resurrection and then make way to the Temple of Time. There may be a few Bokoblins or Stal Bokoblins here, you can defeat them with the equipment we have or run away. Most importantly get to the back of the Temple and begin a soft climb up the Temple of Time conserving your Stamina Wheel. Talk to the Old Man, get the Paraglider, and open the Treasure Chest for the Soldier's Bow. From this point we can literally do whatever we would like. However for the sake of an interesting and entertaining Walkthrough, I suggest sticking to my Linear Path for Master Mode. We will be going for 100% and that includes collecting Korok Seeds. However, this is really tough to do, as many know. You also only need around 440 seeds to max out your inventory which is very important, especially in Master Mode. In this case feel free to skip some thing that don't interest the player or yourself. Please go to the following sections of this Strategy Guide: Great Plateau Korok Seeds 16/16



Great Plateau Stone Talus When you have completed the above objectives, or feel you want to move on head to the Kakariko Village section of this Walkthrough. Be aware that other sections of this guide will have Master Notes as well, so stay tuned for updates and most importantly enjoy the game and guide!
