Tips

  • Use Wind Sense often to locate hidden paths and clues, especially near the Bell Tower and underground areas.
  • When burning the spiky wooden branches, make sure to have enough Fire Arrows ready.
  • For the yin-yang dial puzzle, rotate the dials so that two face towards the yin-yang wheel and two face away, creating a balanced flow of mist beneath the disc.
  • In the bear boss fight, avoid attacking directly; use the Tai Chi Mystic Art to throw the bear against stone piles to unlock treasure chests and defeat it quickly.
