Cia

https://www.reddit.com/r/HyruleWarriors/comments/2pi1u7/cia_character_guide/
  • Fast WPG breaker:
  • C4 as soon as possible, dash cancel after 4th link. C4 again and cancel after 4th. Special attack to finish.
  • If no special, start with a C5 asap, aligning diagonally with boss so that to hit with two wells. Then spam C4 as above.
  • Start C6 asap, dash cancel after portal appearing. Then another weak combo.
  • C1 to cancel stun/knockback, effective against ReDeads! Increase darkness damage. Useful against anything larger than grunt.
  • C2 very effective against keeps.
  • C3 very effective to hit distant WPG of captains, etc; or also against outpost.
  • C4 very effective against boss WPG.
  • C5 very effective when beating a captain / commander in a corner (eg. Darunia).


[GR/Giant Boss WPS]
  • General Method: Lead-In C4 ► Dodge ► C4
  • Alternate Method: Lead-In C6 ► Dodge ► C4

Fi

  • Do C1 regularly to increase damage.
  • Use mostly C4 and C6.


[GR/Giant Boss WPS]
  • VS King Dodongo / Manhandla / Helmaroc King: Lead-In C6 ► Dodge ► Special ► C6
  • VS Gohma / Argorok: C6 ► Dodge ► Special x2

  • VS Ganon: Lead-In C6 ► Dodge ► Special ► C4

Ghirahim

  • C1 (then Dodge): Lock an ennemy (officer...). Make sure to dodge-cancel to skip animation.
  • (locked) C1: Shoot darts.
  • C2:
  • (locked) C2: 2nd strongest individual attack.
  • C3: C3 very good against ennemy that sucker-punch right out of a guarding pose (Volga, Dinolfos, Lizalfos...)
  • (locked) C3:
  • C4
  • (locked) C4: C4-2 is best against WPG, or imprisoner's toes.
  • C5

  • General Method: C1 ► Dodge ► C4-2 ► Dodge ► C4-2 ► R#
  • VS Ganon: C1 ► Dodge ► C4-2 ► Special ► C4-2

Impa

  • C1: very effective against Named Officer (from a distance, because when you're too close, Named Officer will be blocking).
  • C2: (XY[X][Y]) best for 1-on-1 against Officer. C2 with weak then heavy is for Officer WPG.
  • C6: most powerful, but need to be timed correctly (eg. Wizzro preparing laser attack, or Ganondorf's slashing barrier).
  • Boss WPG: C3, dodge cancel then C4, dodge cancel run to front and C4 again.
  • Skill: Water, Water+ (to interrupt ennemy attack), Strength V and Strength II.


  • C3: repeating = best WPG breaker
  • C4: best for area clear
  • C5: some says this is best boss killer (water element good against King Dodongo).


[GR/Giant Boss WPS]
  • General Method: C3 ► Special ► Spam C3
  • VS King Dodongo: Lead-In C6 ► C6

Lana

Lana (Book) Character Guide - Reddit
  • C1 to combine with other. Make sure to aim and hit the walls. It often requires to dash cancel other combos to leave some walls in place.
  • C2 not very effective against officers, but lot of area damage if dash cancel after 3 walls, then C1.
  • C3 can do lot of WPG damage.
  • C4 the WPG killer. On Boss, dash cancel before pushing the walls, and repeat. In maps with lava, water, sky, make sure to push the walls to push ennemies off map.
  • C5 especially in keeps + combo with C1.
  • Skills:
  • Combine with Str. Attack I+ to boost C1 that can be combined with any combo.
  • Use Lightning+, combine well since all attacks are quick.


[GR/Giant Boss WPS] - Book of Sorcery
  • C4-2 ► C4-2

  • 1st Combo (Y X, then Y Y Y X while ennemy in air), very useful because throw ennemy in air where they can't block. Try to block ennemy against wall so that final attack hits. Good against Lizalfos.
  • Bow is good against Lizalfos, esp. when they fly. Most efficient is hookshot though, which trigger WPG.

Sheik

All About Sheik (Harp Guide / Analysis - Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition
  • Note: all attacks do only electric damage, despites the elemental effects they can cause (eg. damage-over-time effect for water tornado).
  • Dodging: Sheik can dodge constantly, without vulnerability period. Constantly dodging is the best way to keep Sheik safe. Very useful to dodge damage, against eg. Imprisoner, but also keep barrier!
  • C2: Water tornado. Useful as defensive move.
  • C2, then C1: Serenade of Water. Water shield, up to 4 hearts, and protect against stunning attacks from Gibdos and Redead Knights. Very useful in challenges that requires to take as little damage as possible. Make sure to always have this shield up.
  • C3: very fast.
  • C3, then C1: Bolero of Fire. Quite slow, but very effective against Boss WPG.
  • C4: Fast, efficient to get rid of small group of monsters.
  • C4, then C1: Song of Storm. Swirling vortex around Sheik, pushing and damaging ennemies. Not very useful.
  • C5: not very useful.
  • C5, then C1: Nocture of Shadow. This attracts ennemies. Some players use it to then attack with C3 + C1.
  • C6: Explosion of light. Excellent crowd clearer.
  • C6, then C1: Prelude of light. Gigantic light square, that can fill up 100% special meter (do not dodge). Can also take this time to recharge water shield.


Sheik Character Guide - Reddit
  • All attack can be dodge-cancelled.
  • Can avoid damage with C2-C1. Very useful to collect Second Skulltulas.
  • C3, then C1: Very efficient against Boss WPG, but also Imprisoned's toes.
  • C2: NOT effective at breaking captain WPG.
  • C3: Can destroy Character Officer WPG in a single reveal.
  • C5: TODO: read this one back.
  • C6: Sheik most powerful combo.


[GR/Giant Boss WPS]

  • Always start with a Bolero of Fire on deck.
  • General Method: Lead-In C1 ► C3 ► C1
  • VS Ganon: Lead-In C1 ► C6 ► R#

Zant

All About Zant (Scimitars Guide/Analysis) - Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition | Secret Genius
  • Attack string: fast start, some area damage in the middle, larger area at the end.
  • Gauge charge: stop filling right before the end or when it starts flashing red. Any press beyond that will cause Zant to stun himself. Note: better aim for 95% full than to overcharge.
  • (gauge full) C1, then LLL': Berserker, Tornado spin, catching ennemies on the way.
  • (gauge full) C1, then HHH': Berserker, stationary, very efficient in 1-on-1, or against Boss WPG (because vulnerable during it).
  • C2, then HHH: Mask popping up, firing all direction, filling the charge bar.
  • C3, then HHH: Pillar, shoot then fall. Quite slow, and Zant vulnerable.
  • C4, then HHH: Jump up, then slam left and right for as long as we can charge him. Very good. Very safe during attack. Most reliable charge method.
  • C5: Grab attack. Zant quite vulnerable, only useful for single combat.
  • C6 then HHH: Best room/keep clearer. Also against Boss WPG: C6 then HHH, then C1 heavy
Zant Character Guide - Reddit
  • C1, then LLL:spin attack. Very good to fill special attack gauge.
  • C1, then HHH:Good against WPG. Note that ennemies are stunned.
  • C2: Good against commander.
  • C3: Best go-to combo. Zant's invicible, except against Manhandla, or big boss attack.
  • C4: Smash the ground, then giant ball (if timing right).
  • C5: Grab attack. Least useful, quite vulnerable.
  • Tips:
  • C1 spin, then special: Spin to gather lot of ennemy, then finsih with special to deal lot of damage.
  • L immediately after C2: ie. LH then quickly L to cancel animation. Optionally Special at combo end to deal extra damage to juggled ennemies.
  • C4, C5, C6 can trigger Darkness-element marks.
  • C1 to C6 cannot be cancelled, so risky in harder mode. Use Boomerang to stun ennemy. Also, if juggling an opponent with C2->regular, it is safe to pull off C4 or C6.
  • Trigger spin attack from a distance to avoid block / spit fireball / dodge.
  • Panic mode: C3 > C1 spin > Special. C1 spin usually fills special, and C3 is pretty safe.
  • Equip Str. Attack I+ because Zant uses it a lot.
[GR/Giant Boss WPS]
  • Full Twilight Gauge: C1 Orbs (from a distance)
Can't make it work.
  • Empty Twilight Gauge: C2 (extend to make Zant dizzy) ► Special ► C2 (extend)
Works against King Dodongo.

Enemy guides

Volga

Links [1]

  • Keep hitting him until he lunges forward (he ALWAYS does when block user attack) and stabs his spear into the ground. This will always show his weak point. Once you know the animation for the move just dodge behind him as soon as he starts so you are ready for the WPG.
  • To piggyback off of QueenCia, If he goes into Dragon Mode (C5), Z-target him, hold shield and alternate dodging left and right. Every character can maintain complete invulnerability this way, and it will help you stay close to him while avoiding the attacks.

Dodongo

  • Block in front of him to avoid damage, and trigger his attack.

Ganon

From reddit and wikihow.

First:

  • Tail sparkling → Argorok-like → hookshot.
  • Throws shit with his horns → Manhandla-like → Get out of range and boomerang (must be done twice).
  • Fireball with left arm → Dodongo-like → Bomb.
  • Beam with ritht arm → Gohma-like → Arrow.

Then:

  • Wait for Ganon to jump at you, doing 180°, then aim and shoot arrow at the sparkling jewel.

Phantom Ganon

From reddit:

Tips to trigger weak point gauge:

  • Throw bombs on his cape (easiest of all tricks).
  • When he is laughing after an attack, walk up close and throw a bomb. The explosion counts as "Hitting him from behind".
  • Use interrupted focus spirit attack.

Tips

  • Bonus / rewards are automatically collected at the end of the battle!
  • Good skills to keep are EXP+, Rupee+ and Material+.
  • Good combo: Slots+ & Stars+ (to max drop of 5 star weapons with more slots), but this lowers your chance of getting materials from bosses (so try to avoid combo with Material+).

Smithy

Some tips [3]:

  • Focus on Materials+ Stars+ Slots+ and Rupees+ EXP+.
  • Typical sword: ELEMENT, SLOTS, STARS, SPECIAL, Attack Dmg, Strength X, vs Soldier, Health.
