Yiga Clan Training is a Mini-Game in Tears of the Kingdom.[1]

Overview

Yiga Clan Training is an exercise conducted by the Yiga Clan to develop their fighting skills.[2][3] Due to Link's presence, members of the Yiga Clan have begun taking their training more seriously.[2] If Link wears the Yiga Clan Attire, he can infiltrate the Yiga Clan Hideout and speak to the Yiga Blademaster inside. The Blademaster mistakes him for a new recruit and offers to let Link participate in their Training at the cost of 100 Rupees per attempt.[2] On Link's first attempt, the Blademaster will waive the fee.[4]

Gameplay and Rules

Yiga Clan Training consists of fighting against an endless wave of Yiga Footsoldiers over the course of one minute.[5][6] There are three stages, which must be completed sequentially in order to challenge the next stage and receive rewards.[7][8] During the Training, the Yiga Clan will attempt to kill Link.[9][10] In the first stage, Link must defeat three Yiga Footsoldiers.[11] The round will end upon doing so, even if there is still time remaining.[12] He will then be given a reward for his accomplishment.[8]

The second stage can only be attempted after clearing the first. In the second stage, Link is challenged to defeat six Yiga Footsoldiers.[13] Upon successfully doing so, Link will be stopped and given a reward.[8][14] In the third stage, Link is challenged to defeat nine Yiga Footsoldiers.[15] Like in previous stages, the Training will end when Link successfully defeats the ninth Footsoldier.[16] Link can continue to take part in the Training even after beating the record of defeating nine opponents, though there is no prize for doing so.[17] Out of respect for Link's ambition, the Yiga Blademaster will waive any future fees.[17]

The Yiga Footsoldiers may be equipped with either Eightfold Blades or Duplex Bows. They will not drop any spoils when defeated, though the Arrows they shoot may be picked up. If Link attempts to leave the area while the Mini-Game is underway, he will be reprimanded by the Yiga Blademaster hosting it.[18] Additionally, it is impossible to Warp away during the Mini-Game.[19] If Link removes his Armor during the Training, he will be taken outside of the Yiga Clan Hideout to fight the Yiga Clan Enforcers.[20]

Rewards

The Yiga Blademaster will compliment Link on his greed if he asks about the prizes for completing the Training.[21] In recognition for passing the second stage, Link will be recognized as a true member of the Yiga Clan.[22]

  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 So you're the newcomer, huh? This is where we train. Zelda's disappearance has robbed Hyrule of its spirit, which gives us the perfect opportunity to bring it to its knees. The only problem is her stubborn little "appointed swordsman," Link. We've received reports that he still lives. I hate to admit it, but he's a formidable foe. We'll all need to hone our skills if we hope to take him down. If you value your life, then you should do some training yourself. Prove you've got what it takes...and you might even earn our precious Lightning Helm. It's our sacred treasure, completely resistant to electricity. But because it's such a powerful piece of armor, it can only be handled by those who have been properly trained. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  3. ↑ The more you train, the more you nourish your mind and body. It's always a good idea to sharpen your skills. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  4. ↑ The training fee is typically 100 rupees...but since you're new to this, I suppose your first round can be free. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  5. ↑ We train by sparring with our fellow Yiga. We set a timer, and the combatants just keep coming. You'll earn better and better prizes based on the number of opponents you defeat. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  6. ↑ [Tell me the rules!] You spar continuously with Yiga members for 1 minute. That's it. The prizes will change depending on how many you beat. Nobody's going to be pulling punches here either. Once training begins, you'll all fight like your lives depend on it. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  7. ↑ Let's see... If we really want to measure your strength... Show me you can defeat three combatants in under 1 minute. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  8. ↑ 8.0 8.1 8.2 Defeat three combatants, and I will give you some Yiga Clan fabric as proof that you trained with us. Defeat six, and I will instruct you in our secret skill—the Earthwake technique! If you somehow manage to defeat nine, then the Yiga Clan's sacred treasure, the Lightning Helm, will be yours. Not that anyone's ever been able to do THAT, of course. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  9. ↑ Know that should you take this challenge, there's no turning back. You must fight until the time limit—or your life—expires. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  10. ↑ [Bring it on!] I like your spirit. Then let's start the training! All hands, prepare for combat! — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  11. ↑ Taking a look at you...let's see if you can defeat three combatants in under 1 minute. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  12. ↑ Enough! ...Hmm. I'm impressed you're still standing. You defeated three of our fighters, just as I hoped you would. ...Not bad for a newcomer, I suppose. Take this. You've earned it. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  13. ↑ Watching you fight, it seems like you could take down six Yiga members next. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  14. ↑ Enough! Ah... Another target smashed. Impressive. Clearly you've got some real promise. Well done. You've shown you are worthy to learn our secret technique. Accept this teaching with an attentive mind and ready heart. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  15. ↑ Will you prove yourself worthy of our sacred treasure, the Lightning Helm? It's a tremendously powerful piece of armor. Only those who have gone through sufficient training can handle it. And it can be yours, if you can defeat an unprecedented nine combatants in time. Think you're up to the task? — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  16. ↑ Enough! Many capable fighters have trained in this arena, but you're the first to defeat nine of your peers. If you're this talented...you might be an even match for that nefarious swordsman Link! You're clearly more gifted than I dared imagine... Come now, and receive our sacred treasure! — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  17. ↑ 17.0 17.1 Even without a prize on the line, your devotion to Master Kohga has you eager to train. I like it! To reward your admirable ambition, I will waive your training fee! But know this—should you enter the arena, there will be no quitting till all is said and done. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  18. ↑ Where are you going, you fool?! You're still in the middle of training! — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  19. ↑ You can't travel from here. — Purah Pad (Tears of the Kingdom)
  20. ↑ Intruder detected! Do not let him leave this place alive! — N/A (Tears of the Kingdom)
  21. ↑ [Tell me the prizes!] You haven't even broken in your outfit, and you're asking about the prizes? Good. Nothing wrong with a little greed. — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
  22. ↑ On the line is our Earthwake technique, capable use of which marks you as a true member of the Yiga Clan. Of course, to prove yourself worthy of such a prize, you would have to defeat six combatants... Think you're up for it? — Yiga Blademaster (Tears of the Kingdom)
