Sheikah Tower

are recurring objects and locations in. NaN Sheikah Towers go unnamed in.

Sheikah Towers are tall, ancient structures that are found scattered across Hyrule. When activated, the these towers glow with a bright blue and their pronged tips will split open like a satellite. After being awakened from his deep sleep at the Shrine of Resurrection, Link is soon guided by a disembodied voice to a pedestal at a monument in the northeast of the Great Plateau. Upon placing the Sheikah Slate into the pedestal, all of the Sheikah Towers rise from the ground all over Hyrule and await activation. The Great Plateau Tower rises where Link is standing. Upon activating the Great Plateau Tower, all of the Ancient Shrines also begin to glow orange and await activation.

Sheikah Towers may be climbed by gradually scaling their wicker walls with platforms provided in-between elevations so that Link may rest if need be. Sheikah Towers often have obstacles that prevent Link from climbing them directly, such as Malice, spiked vines or various enemies. These can be scaled by using Revali's Gale. At the top of every Sheikah Tower is a pedestal where Link can install data onto his Sheikah Slate, which gives him a detailed map of the surrounding area.

Locations
There are 15 different towers scattered throughout Hyrule. Some regions of Hyrule, such as Necluda and Gerudo, have multiple towers within them.

Great Plateau Tower
The Great Plateau Tower is situated in the northeastern region of the Great Plateau. Initially, it is buried beneath the surface of the Great Plateau, requiring Link to use his Sheikah Slate to reactivate it. Upon reactivation, it causes a chain reaction across Hyrule, raising Sheikah Towers across all of Hyrule and activating all the Ancient Shrines in Hyrule.

Out of all of the towers, it is the only one that doesn't have any major obstacles in the way of ascending it. It is also in direct view of Hyrule Castle being one of the closest towers to the castle.

Central Tower
The Central Tower is found in Hyrule Field in Central Hyrule. The Tower is southwest of Hyrule Castle near Mount Daphnes. Approaching the tower from the east through the Hyrule Garrison Ruins requires avoiding or defeating two Guardian Stalkers while the base of the tower is surrounded by three Decayed Guardians. Scaling the tower involves jumping from platform to platform to avoid the Decayed Guardians below if he has not defeated them.

Ridgeland Tower
The Ridgeland Tower is found in the Hyrule Ridge in Central Hyrule. The Tower is to the west of North Hyrule Plain and southeast from the Thundra Plateau.

The Ridgeland Tower sits in a lake filled with Electric Lizalfos and Electric Wizzrobes. Scaling the tower requires Link to either avoid the enemies below, lest he fall off the tower, or to defeat them before he ascends.

Atop the tower sits BotW:, a Hylian researcher who studies the Rito. He was standing in the middle of the lake as Link activated the Great Plateau Tower and got stuck on the Ridgeland Tower. For 20 Rupees, he will let you play a mini-game where Link jumps off the Ridgeland Tower and uses his Paraglider to glide out as far as he can. If he makes it far enough, BotW: will reward Link with a Silver Rupee.
