Sneakstrike is a recurring ability in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2]

Overview

Breath of the Wild

Sneakstrikes can be performed by sneaking behind an enemy and attacking it while it is unaware of Link's presence. Successfully executing a Sneakstrike will deal 8 times the damage by Link's equipped melee weapon.[3]

Tears of the Kingdom

A Sneakstrike can be achieved by Sneaking up on an Enemy without being noticed, or, alternatively, by causing a Puffshroom to be hit and release a cloud of mist that hampers the vision of Enemies. This is most easily achieved by Fusing a Puffshroom onto Link's equipped Shield.

The Eightfold Blade deals additional bonus damage from a successful Sneakstrike.
