Each one goes down in only two hits, which gives you plenty of time to take out the next leg and extend the stun. In the case of Stalkers, stun them with an arrow or use the terrain as needed to get close and then start in on the legs. Note, however, that unlike fighting Ganon or his incarnations, this does not remove the sword's durability loss so consider wearing out the Master Sword's durability and waiting out its recharge timer beforehand if you know you're going to be fighting a lot of Guardians.ĭecayed Guardians take only a few hits and need no special strategy. With the exception of the Scouts found in shrines, being near Guardians turns the Master Sword into its glowing, massively empowered form, allowing you to dismantle ground-bound Guardians with ease. Once you've gotten it, the Master Sword is also extremely effective against Guardians. These arrows can also be purchased at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, and a lucky few can be found in a treasure chest inside Hyrule Castle. Since these shots are extremely important, using slow motion is best paired with an Ancient Arrow shot - since you'll have a better chance to make sure you land your one hit kill and don't leave yourself open. When fired from a decent bow, a bulls-eye right into the eye of any Guardian will instantly kill it, while a glancing blow will usually deal half of its health in damage. The single best weapon you can use however is an Ancient Arrow. If you're short on Ancient Parts, consider looting chests in Shrines, or scavenging parts from rusted and abandoned Guardians in locations like the Great Plateau, Fort Hateno, and the dump site behind the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab.
Here, you can trade in Ancient Parts and Rupees to get weapons of all types, as well as Ancient Armor that resists the damage they deal. You can also buy said weapons by traveling to the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab up in the far Northeast. You can often find these in Shrines, the harder the shrine, the more likely you are to get better Ancient Weapons. Remember that Guardians are most vulnerable to weapons of their time - meaning Ancient Weapons. Since Guardians have a ton of health - even the Decayed Guardians have 500 HP - you'll need durable and powerful weapons to do the job. However, doing this you'll need to make sure your shot counts - as you'll likely be out of stamina and horseless when you land. If you want to be fancy, you can look for ways to get up in the air - like updrafts caused from fire - or jumping off your horse. The same goes for Guardian Skywatchers - fire explosive arrows at their propellers, and they'll fall from the sky making them an east target. While stunned, you can attack the legs of a Guardian to hack them off - and if you destroy all legs they'll be unable to move. Immobilizing is risky but can pay off in a huge way. You can combat this in two ways - immobilizing them, or slowing down time.
Note that while immobile Guardians are easier to hit, regular Guardian Stalkers and Guardian Skywatchers tend to move around, making things harder. When you have stronger weapons and armor, it can be more advantageous to stun them with a powerful bow shot to the face, and then move in to attack with melee weapons until they start to re-orient, then move back for another bow shot.
