How To Defeat Divine Beast Vah Medoh

Okay, let's talk about Vah Medoh. Some people say it's the easiest Divine Beast. I'm not so sure, and I'm here to tell you why, and how I deal with it.

Getting There is Half the Battle (Maybe More)

First, you gotta actually reach it. That involves dealing with Teba. He's cool, I guess, but that flight challenge? A little stressful.

I've definitely crashed into a few mountains trying to keep up. My Link looks like he's been through a blender sometimes.

Mastering the Flight Range

The wind currents are your friend. Mostly. Sometimes they're just jerks pushing you in the wrong direction.

I stock up on stamina elixirs. Lots of them. Seriously, I might have single-handedly depleted Hyrule's frog population.

And don't forget the arrows! You'll need a good supply. Trust me, you'll be firing like a machine gun.

Inside the Birdhouse

Once you're inside, it's puzzle time! And I, uh, love puzzles. (That's a lie.)

Tilting the Divine Beast is key. But honestly, it makes me a little dizzy. Link probably needs Dramamine.

The terminals are pretty straightforward, though. Even I can manage them without too much screaming.

Dealing with the Scourge

Then comes the boss: Windblight Ganon. Now, some people call him a pushover.

I think they're lying. Or maybe they're just that good at video games. I am... not.

His tornadoes are annoying. Really annoying. And his wind blasts can send you flying off the edge. Not fun.

My (Unconventional) Strategies

Here's where I get a little... creative. Forget fancy parries and perfect dodges (too hard!).

I like to spam arrows. Lots and lots of arrows. Ancient arrows are great, if you have them. Otherwise, just unleash a flurry of regular ones. Aim for the glowing bits!

Explosive barrels are your friend. I like to set them near Windblight Ganon and detonate them for extra damage.

And don't be afraid to use your special abilities! Urbosa's Fury is a lifesaver. Seriously, use it.

If all else fails, just run around like a chicken with its head cut off and hope for the best. Hey, it's worked for me before!

Cheese It if Needed

Alright, I'm going to admit it. Sometimes I "cheese" the fight. What's cheese? Using strategies that exploit the game's mechanics, which are often unintended.

Specifically, a well-aimed arrow from a safe distance. The idea is to hit him where it hurts without him being able to retaliate effectively.

Look, no shame in winning, right? Sometimes, the only way to defeat a divine beast is to fight dirty!
