How to find it

Leave Kakariko Village to the north and follow the path up toward the Great Fairy Fountain. The shrine sits in a clearing along the way. Two chests nearby hold an Eightfold Blade and a Shield of the Mind’s Eye if you are short on gear.

Solution

Side hop

Stand near the Guardian Scout and, as it strikes, move left or right and press jump. A correct dodge slows time and lets you start a flurry rush.

Backflip

Do the same, but hold back while jumping as an attack is about to land, which grants another flurry rush.

Perfect guard

Raise your shield just before the blow lands to parry it. The enemy is stunned and often disarmed.

Charged attack

Hold the attack button until your weapon is fully charged, then release a big spin. This finishes the Guardian Scout.

Claim the reward

In the final room open the chest for the Opal and speak to the monk Ta’loh Naeg for the Spirit Orb.

Chests and rewards

  • Eightfold Blade and Shield of the Mind’s Eye: in two chests outside the shrine.
  • Opal: in the chest in the final room.
  • Spirit Orb: from the monk Ta’loh Naeg.
