The Closed Door Quest Tips
- Tutorial for creating food
- Use Shield or evade incoming attacks
- Controls for avoiding attacks
You can learn how to make food in a tutorial from the Steward Construct near the campfire. With this, you can create food that has a better effectivity than the common recovery items so create as many as possible.
How To Cook Guide
Before reaching the entrance to the Temple of Time, an enemy with a Shield appears. To defeat it, move sideways or evade incoming attacks before attempting to land a hit.
Your direction when avoiding depends on the direction pressed on the left stick (left & right or bottom) + 'X' button while pressing "ZL" button.
