9 Easy Tricks To Defeat BOTW Minibosses

The past 5 years have given players time to come up with complicated glitches to take out Breath of the Wild foes in style, but instead we’re dialing it back a bit, and going with the easiest, simplest tricks to take on minibosses.

Tricks such as lassoing Lynels with your camera, making your weapons have permanent hitboxes, and hypnotizing guardians to stay still can help players out to overcome Breath of the Wild’s tougher foes.

I sympathise with the Hinox. Abruptly woken from a nap and then subjected to a series of elemental attacks. Bet he didn’t expect the day to end so badly.

Love this stuff! As someone who can never do the complex techniques I appreciate these simpler tips and strats

The best technique for Guardians in my book is to just use your shield to Perfect Parry their shots back at them. One bounce kills a stationary Guardian, three for a mobile one, and it doesn't degrade your shield. It works so well you can even use it in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

Wow playing this game right now and still discovering alot of things to replay the game again and again.

I like killing lynels the most (just learned sbr + tcr so it's easier) because their loot is (kind of) the best you can get. That's why i marked every single lynel on the map to find them when i want more savage lynel shields and stuff.

What a coincidence I literally just started replaying BOTW for like the 5th time an hour ago 😅

Nice having a slightly more "normal" video as well as a break from all the stuff that "literally" breaks the game. I also much prefer in-universe cheese to stuff which is only possible by abusing the code.

I'm not great at defeating lynels so this video helped me out tons! This video also made me a mini-boss defeating pro 😎

Probably a bit tricky for new players to pull off until you get the timing down, but the best way to fight the Guardian Stalkers is with a shield for the parry, to reflect their laser back at them.

Another thing I recommend is trying to get the Flamebreaker armor early (and boosting it to Level 2), since the Guardians often set the grass on fire.

Thank you so much for making this video’s! This really helps me a ton!!

Thanks for this video, its a good thing you made it as soon as 5 years after the game released. Can you please explain next where the second Key is in Torvus Bog in Metroid Prime 2?

[Wildicon]

These are some awesome tips! It sure makes the game a lot more fun to cheese the bosses!

[colfaxschuyler]

All right, you've enthused me. I'm going back in!

[novustaIks]

Great video, can you please upload a video explaining what the easiest way is to beat level 3 in Contra 3 for the SNES while you're at it?

[nukerkid]
