How to find it
Head to the island north of the Quarry Ruins and walk to its southern tip. Thorns and a cracked rock block the way: burn the thorns away with fire, then bomb the rock to open the entrance. A bomb arrow lets you hit the rock from a distance.
Solution
Open the way in
Burn away the thorns on the southern tip of the island, then blow up the cracked rock behind them with a bomb or a bomb arrow.
Fight the Guardian Scout
The Scout swings an Ancient Battle Axe. Dodge each swing and counter, using a flurry rush where possible.
Glide over the laser
Around half health it drops down and spins a laser. Back away, ride the updraft and strike down from above.
Claim the rewards
Open the chest for the shield inside and speak to Monk Noya Neha for the Spirit Orb.
Chests and rewards
- Shield: in the chest after the arena (guides disagree on whether it is a Knight’s Shield or a Royal Shield).
- Spirit Orb: from Monk Noya Neha.
