Tip #1 Buy sword attachment for Joycon
Tip #2 Break

@TheZiiFamily 5 years ago (edited)

Heres a Tip: dont accidentally click leave after 4-5 bosses because your wii remote sensor bar was not reading correctly and everyone in the room was all amped up and now their all upset, not at you but just the game itself

@MidnightBirch 5 years ago

All Of Your Skyward Sword Content Has Been So Entertaining. Loved The 100% Series. Gotta Thank You For The Content.

I always try to fight the third imprisoned battle first. It gets it out of the way since you don’t want to be in the middle of a winning streak only to lose to its bs when it flies up.

@shadowfire_08 5 years ago

who else played all 10 bosses & didn’t quit @ 8?…..pain 😭

@astrid_ad_tacit 5 years ago

Austin once said: bc I’m a little low on health i’m gonna go get some harts (w max harts and only four dp taken aka one hart)

@persechini 5 years ago

Me after 8th fight:
If I lose on the 9th I still get the heart piece and shield, right? Can't hurt... Nope, imprisoned 2 pwns me and I get nothing

Me on the 7th fight for the second time:
Cool, one more and I get the heart piece and the shield, right. Nope, imprisoned 2 pwns me again

Me after the 8th fight for the 3rd time:
Now I get the heart piece and the shield right? Nope, only the shield

Gosh darnit!

I think the Boss Rush is a great idea. But having it the only way to get the Iconic Hylian 🛡 Shield a let down. Much rather get it in a dungeon or have evil corrupt a great Hylian Warrior as a Dungeon Boss have it a reward for freeing the Warrior from said Evil Corruption. What do you all think?

@Radiant_Silverback 4 years ago

For Ghirahim, hold the stick in one direction, let it return to neutral then slash in the opposite direction. You can end that phase very fast.

Thank you for your guides, I struggled a bit in some dungeons and only watched certain parts that helped get through the game, I'm almost at the end of the game, I just got the Hylian Shield and now I'm going back with Leivas so I can learn the song of hero, I'm really enjoying this game a lot. After BotW it was so refreshing to play a traditional Zelda game once again. Dungeons and everything

@darchangel2136 4 years ago

I've been doing this all wrong. Also did you know in the Imprisoned battles, in ANY ONE OF THEM, you can just avoid that mess on the ground altogether and just jump on his head?

@Thieverpedia 1 year ago

I actually found this video while chilling before more Skyward Sword, and I'm actually at the point where I can do this Lightning Round. Did it the first time for all of the rewards. Now it's time to do it again with the knowledge that I don't have to deal with The Imprisoned 2 & 3's EXTREMELY obnoxious shockwaves. The third fight pissed me off so damn much from getting it down the first time.

Thank you for covering this! I’m not going to lie, I made it all the way to the middle of the Sky Keep stage when I realized, ‘wait a minute….when do I get the Hylian Shield’. So of course I looked it up and was slightly disappointed that this was the only way to gain the shield 🥹 SO if someone can please be kind enough to answer, just so I can understand, we have to defeat eight in a ROW correct? I wasn’t paying attention to the dragon talking. If it’s right in the row I’m screwed 💀

For the imprisoned III, I freaked out cus when he ran out of his bomb thing, I didn’t know what to do, so I jumped into the middle and took that big air thing lol

@jinxy1491 5 years ago

Small tip, once you break open the cage of the automaton, drop the big sword and use the master sword.

@JaredGooch-o7b 1 year ago

Just a tip, you can use the middle gust to get on to of the imprisoned.

@Necronomikon22 5 years ago

actually i found the best rupee farming method to be the clean cut minigame since fun fun island can be a bit inconsistent.

@swift_horizon5189 5 years ago

Hey Austin, thanks for putting out this content! I've been re-watching some of your old pokemon sword and shield tips, and I've been using your guides for several games. Your tutorials are the best. HANDS DOWN.
