Overview

Breath of the Wild



Tears of the Kingdom

While unarmed, Link can charge an attack to launch enemies, though larger foes such as Lynels will not be affected. It deals minor damage and is more useful for its ability to knock foes off their feet, giving Link a chance to disengage and re-equip himself. The attack costs approximately one-quarter of a stamina wheel to perform and will chase an enemy if Link is locked on to it.

To learn this ability, Link must first acquire all three pieces of the Yiga Armor Set to gain entrance to the Yiga Clan Hideout. While inside, he can take on the challenge of defeating multiple Yiga in under one minute. The intermediate level of the challenge, which requires six enemies to be defeated within the time limit, will award him with the Earthwake Manual.
