How to Learn and Use Echoes
Objects: walk up to anything that shimmers and press ZR when the Learn prompt appears. Tri teaches this in the Hyrule Castle cell, where the Table is your first echo. Once you’ve learned something you can summon it with Y as often as you like: pots, beds, signs, statues and the rest.
Monsters: defeat a monster you haven’t learned yet and it leaves a shimmer behind; stand by it and press ZR to Learn it. Tri explains this after your first Zol on Suthorn Beach. Stronger variants count as separate echoes (Boomerang Boarblin Lv. 2, Lizalfos Lv. 3 and so on), so beat the tougher versions too when you meet them.
Summon cost: every echo costs Tri’s ▼ triangles, shown above the echo’s icon. A Table or a Zol costs 1, a Club Boarblin Lv. 2 costs 4, and the Lynel still costs 5 at the end of the game. Tri levels up as rifts are mended. Some level-ups give Tri another ▼ (“Tri gained a ▼!”), and others lower the number of ▼ needed for some echoes, which then show the saved triangles greyed out.
Bind & Reverse Bond: Tri teaches both in Suthorn Ruins. Bind (X) attaches Tri to a monster or object so it follows your movements. Use it to drag boulders, pull chests out from behind bars, or move beds and blocks into place. Reverse Bond, taught a little later in the same dungeon, works the other way round: while you’re bound, hold R to Follow whatever you’re bound to, which lets you ride moving platforms up and across gaps.
Echoes That Are Easy to Miss
Zelda’s Bed; learned from Zelda’s own canopy bed in Zelda’s Room at Hyrule Castle, where she wakes up after the Stilled Hyrule Castle. It’s easy to walk straight out to the throne room without learning it.
Soft Bed; the purple beds inside the Tough Mango Plant Lab, the tent at the Gerudo Desert oasis next to the Smoothie Shop.
Stuffed Toy; sits on a pedestal in a dark cave under a gravestone in a small fenced graveyard in Hyrule Field (light the two braziers to open the passage). Ghosts are drawn to it, and the cave’s puzzles use it to lure them away.
Firework; learned at Basa’s house in Goron City after finishing The Fireworks Artist. It launches a burst that breaks things, and Dampé wants one (plus a creature that spits stones) to build the Tocktorok in Explosions Galore!
Meat / Grilled Fish / Carrot / Rock Roast / Stuffed Toy; the food-and-lure echoes, each learned at one spot. Meat: a house in Suthorn Village (entices certain monsters). Grilled Fish: Anube’s mother on the Seesyde Village pier, for Deliver the Grilled Fish! (also entices monsters). Carrot: the carrot patch northwest of Hyrule Castle (horses come running). Rock Roast: the grill in Rock-Roast Quarry (Gorons love it; Tweelus have a weakness for it). Stuffed Toy: the ghost cave above (ghosts).
Pathblade, Gustmaster, Beamos, Platboom; these are monsters, not objects, and each is learned by defeating one where it lives. Pathblade comes from the side-scrolling cave in Gerudo Desert, Gustmaster from the void walkways of Stilled Hyrule Castle, and Beamos from a side-scrolling ruin in Faron Wetlands. Platboom, the one-eyed crusher you can ride up to high ledges, is learned in a side-view ruin near Gerudo Town.
Lynel; the Eternal Forest’s apex predator, learned by beating one in a forest clearing (Swordfighter Form helps). Get it before the finale: a summoned Lynel hits very hard in the Stilled Ancient Ruins and against Null.
Statue set (Snake / Hawk / Cat / Elephant Statue); all four are learned in Gerudo Sanctum. Snake, Cat and Elephant Statue stand in rooms inside the dungeon. Hawk Statue sits on a tower top in the stilled outdoor part of the Sanctum. The 1F tribute door needs two of them on its pedestals, and the boss arena is ringed by all four.
Ancient Orb; an artifact of the Eternal Forest, learned from one of the floating orbs beside the stone orb monument there. The monument’s slots light up one by one as orbs are brought to it. It is on the main route, but this is the only place to learn it.
