Clear Each Temple To Get Skills

If you clear the temple, you will be able to use the skills of each Sage. Due to the many distinctive features that are helpful for exploration and combat, we prioritize the exploration elements and determine the order accordingly.

Wise Abilities Summary

Sage	How To Unlock
Tulin	Clear Tulin of Rito Village By creating a tailwind from behind Link, it is possible to increase the speed of travel with the Paraglider.
Yunobo	Clear Yunobo Of Goron City It charges forward while engulfed in flames. It can destroy obstacles and ignite fires.
Sidon	Clear Sidon of the Zora It deploys a barrier. After deploying, swinging a weapon generates a shockwave.
Riju	Clear Riju of Gerudo Town It creates a field of lightning, furthermore using bows and arrows within the field causes lightning to strike the target upon impact.

The First Place To Tackle Is Rito Village

The challenge in Rito Village does not only have low difficulty but you can also benefit greatly from Tulin's Sage Abilities, which is exceptionally outstanding compared to other skills. In this game, there are many ways to fly into the sky and skills that can extend your flight distance are very useful especially for exploration.

▲By using a horizontal gust of wind, you can cover distance with the Paraglider.

Head To Goron City Next

Yunobo's skills are excellent in exploration as well. You can use it to break rocks and ore deposit as well as start fires. It is also possible to target enemies in combat. Although the temple is more difficult, it is worth going for Yunobo's skills.

Visit Zora's Domain After The Second Temple

During the Zora's Domain Main Quest, you can obtain equipment that allows you to swim up waterfalls, making later exploration around water areas easier. Also, the Water Temple, while featuring mid-bosses and other encounters, has relatively fewer challenging elements throughout. However, the skills obtained from Sidon have limited versatility, hence why it is ranked as the third priority.

Unlocking Temples Can Be Postponed Until Later

The Zora Armor, which enables swimming up waterfalls, can be obtained soon after the Main Quests in Zora's Domain. Therefore, it is also possible to tackle the Water Temple after Gerudo Town.

You Can Head To Gerudo Town Last

The skills obtained from Riju are useful for area attacks. They are extremely handy in combat, especially for initiating attacks against groups of enemies. However, since it is inferior to the others in terms of search skills, it should be the last in the order of attack.
