How do I activate the Divine Beast Vah Medoh in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild?
To activate the Divine Beast Vah Medoh in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you must first complete the quest "Divine Beast Vah Medoh," which is part of the main story. This Divine Beast is located in the Hebra region, specifically in the skies above Rito Village. The process involves several steps, including preparation, combat, puzzle-solving, and a boss fight. HereÔÇÖs a detailed guide to help you through the process.
First, you need to reach Rito Village, which is located in the Tabantha region. To get there, you can follow the road northwest from Hyrule Castle or use the Tabantha Tower as a fast travel point if youÔÇÖve already activated it. Once in Rito Village, speak to the elder, Kaneli, who will inform you about the Divine Beast Vah Medoh and its current state of corruption. He will direct you to Teba, a Rito warrior who is planning to take down the Divine Beast.
Teba is located at the Flight Range, which is northeast of Rito Village. You can reach the Flight Range by gliding from the village or by using a horse. Once you find Teba, he will explain his plan to shoot down the cannons on Vah Medoh. YouÔÇÖll need to assist him by using a bow to destroy the cannons while he distracts the Divine Beast. This part of the quest requires good aim and timing, as the cannons will fire at you. Make sure you have a strong bow and plenty of arrows. The Great Eagle Bow, which you can obtain later, is particularly useful here.
After destroying the cannons, Teba will help you board Vah Medoh. Once inside, youÔÇÖll need to activate the main control unit to gain control of the Divine Beast. This involves solving a series of puzzles and defeating enemies. The puzzles in Vah Medoh revolve around manipulating the Divine BeastÔÇÖs tilt. By using the map on your Sheikah Slate, you can change the orientation of Vah Medoh, which will allow you to access different areas and solve puzzles. For example, tilting the Divine Beast can create pathways or move objects into position.
One of the key puzzles involves using the tilt mechanism to roll a large metal ball through a maze to hit a switch. Another puzzle requires you to tilt the Divine Beast to align a series of propellers, which will create a wind current that you can use to glide to higher areas. Pay close attention to the environment and use your Sheikah SlateÔÇÖs map to experiment with different tilts.
Once youÔÇÖve activated all the terminals inside Vah Medoh, youÔÇÖll face the boss, Windblight Ganon. This boss is a fast and agile enemy that uses wind-based attacks. It will teleport around the arena and fire energy blasts at you. To defeat Windblight Ganon, youÔÇÖll need to use your bow to shoot its eye when itÔÇÖs exposed. The Great Eagle Bow is particularly effective here due to its range and power. You can also use bomb arrows to deal significant damage. Be sure to dodge its attacks and use the environment to your advantage, such as hiding behind pillars to avoid its energy blasts.
After defeating Windblight Ganon, youÔÇÖll regain control of Vah Medoh, and it will become a powerful ally in your fight against Calamity Ganon. YouÔÇÖll also receive RevaliÔÇÖs Gale, a special ability that allows you to create an upward draft, making it easier to reach high places.
Preparation is key for this quest. Make sure you have a good supply of arrows, especially bomb arrows, as they are very effective against both the cannons and Windblight Ganon. ItÔÇÖs also a good idea to have some healing items, such as hearty meals or elixirs, to keep your health up during the battles. Wearing armor that increases your defense or provides cold resistance can also be helpful, as the Hebra region is very cold.
Common mistakes to avoid include not having enough arrows or healing items, which can make the battles much harder. Another mistake is not paying attention to the tilt mechanism, which is crucial for solving the puzzles inside Vah Medoh. Take your time to understand how the tilting works and experiment with different angles.
Advanced techniques include using the Great Eagle Bow for its long range and power, which can make the battles easier. You can also use the environment to your advantage during the boss fight, such as hiding behind pillars to avoid attacks. Additionally, using the tilt mechanism creatively can help you solve puzzles more efficiently.
In summary, activating Divine Beast Vah Medoh involves reaching Rito Village, assisting Teba in destroying the cannons, solving puzzles inside the Divine Beast, and defeating Windblight Ganon. Preparation, good aim, and understanding the tilt mechanism are key to success. With the right strategy and items, you can overcome the challenges and gain control of Vah Medoh, bringing you one step closer to defeating Calamity Ganon.
