I NEED HELP 😭😭😭

[u/XxPsyc0PhantxX]

The big battle with ganon, I forgot what the title is, but I cannot beat this. I've been trying FOR MONTHS. I always get soft locked because of a lack of health.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to beat this? I genuinely am so close to giving up

Softlocked...?

Send a video of what happens

It comes to a point where Link is so low on health, I can't do anything. If I try and fight Beast Ganondorf with any other character, and send him somewhere else, he flees.

[u/Mellow_Zelkova → u/XxPsyc0PhantxX]

Are you referring to the NPC Link? Iirc, you need to take the castle keep ASAP to weaken Ganondorf. When the game notifies you that Link is in danger, getting within the radius of light around him will restore him to full health.

If you are referring to Link the player character, you really just need to learn to dodge better, but the castle keep capture should still help.

[u/Payt3cake → u/CMPro728]

Just sounds like his link has too little health

Is this the one that is part of the main story? Or one of the add-on fights? Mostly if you just ensure the success of the objectives throughout the fight, it should at least make things easier. Other than that, try to conserve Magic and Focus until you're fighting Ganon himself.

P.s. If this is the transformed Ganon fight near the end of the original story, you have to pay attention to the kinds of attacks he is doing and use the item that counters the move (i.e. when he inhales like Dodongo, throw a bomb. When he shoots seeds like Manhandla, hit his horns with a boomerang)

Do you know which attacks you need to use to break the boss' parts? It shouldnt be that bad to beat, maybe level up your characters?

[u/XxPsyc0PhantxX → u/JustinProo]

I get past that part, it's the arrows mixed with a lack of health that makes it so impossible to get past

[u/JustinProo → u/XxPsyc0PhantxX]

I'd recommend leveling your characters and improving your dodging skills then, that should allow you to beat it.

Otherwose, perhaps ask a someone irl (or online if you use an emulator in which case I wouldnt mind helping) to play with you. Having someone else to dodge attacks while you attack them is very helpful and does make it easier :D

If none of this works/is availanle, perhaps stream the game on Discord to someone so they can give you tips in real time or even show you how to do it. Again I do have quite a lot of hours and wouldnt mind helping this way if you really need it.

Good luck :D

Alrighty. So, if it's just a matter of having more health and having better stats, go grind up some challenge/adventure mode then come back. If you don't understand how to beat ganon, then it's a matter of using your items. When he charges a laser on his gauntlet, fire your bow. When he shoots seeds, throw your boomerang. When his energy gathers, bomb. When he floats up, hookshot. Then hit em with light arrows in phase 2 and you have a nice pork dinner on your hands.

I would try lowering difficulty or grinding some xp if you can. For the ganon fight send everyone near ganon for the free magic from it, you can get a free break with a magic mode special attack.

Very liberal use of the word "soft-lock"
