Tips and tricks for Zelda: Skyward Sword

Here are some tips and tricks to help you complete Link’s mission in Skyward Sword:

  • Remember to change your shield! Aside from the Hylian Shield, there are three main types of shields you’ll use in Skyward Sword: wooden, iron, and holy. Each has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, so it’s always a good idea to make sure you have the right shield before leaving Skyloft.
  • Repair your shield. Most shields in Skyward Sword have a health meter, which decreases as they take damage. Fortunately, your shield can be repaired at the Scrap Shop in the Skyloft Bazaar.
  • Update your articles! Many of the items you find in Skyward Sword can be upgraded in the scrap shop in the bazaar. Doing this will increase the abilities of said item, from its speed to the amount of damage it deals.
  • Have a variety of potions on hand. Potions will grant health, stamina, and even make Link invincible for a small period of time. You can even enhance their effects by bringing specific bugs to the potion makers in the Skyloft Bazaar.

  • Always remember to pack your adventure bag before leaving Skyloft! You can only carry a certain amount of extra items with you, so make sure you bring at least one potion, a shield, and medals or items like extra bomb bags.
  • Collect every heart piece you see. Collecting four heart pieces will increase Link’s health meter by one heart container, helping you survive the toughest boss battles.
  • Hit each Goddess Cube with a Skyward Strike. Throughout the surface world, you will find gray Goddess Cubes that, when hit with a Skyward Strike, will unlock a chest in the sky. These chests contain a variety of useful items, from heart pieces to rupees, so make sure you get all of them.
  • Catch bugs when you see them! While bugs can be used to upgrade potions, collecting them can involve a bit of backtracking. For this reason, it’s a good idea to catch an error every time you see one.

  • Sell ​​insects and additional materials for rupees. If you need extra rupees, explore Skyloft at night. Strich, who lives in the Knight Academy, will buy three randomly selected insects, while Rupin, who has a shop in the bazaar during the day, will buy four random materials.
  • Carry medals in your adventure bag for bonuses. From an extra heart to increasing the duration of specific potions, medals give you useful bonuses in Skyward Sword. You can find medals in chests or buy them at Beedle’s Airshop.
  • Talk to Fi if you’re really stuck. Fi is always there to point you in the right direction or give you clues about what’s going on in Skyloft.

Have fun in Skyward Sword!
