Hyrule now confronts an unprecedented crisis as Ganondorf harnesses dark power through Sonia’s bloodline. The quest Striking North in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment demands decisive action against overwhelming forces. Rauru’s strategy involves advancing northward to Tanagar Canyon’s temple, a mission fraught with relentless foes and complex skirmishes. While the path appears direct, mastering this chaotic clash requires tactical awareness of hidden threats. Below we outline optimized tactics to conquer this trial.

Winning Strategies for the Striking North Quest

Begin by navigating northward through the initial battleground. Engage hordes of enemies while ascending the staircase to a sprawling field. Eliminate the Moblin guarding this area, then assist the besieged Hylian Captain battling nearby. Prioritize defeating all Moblins encountered to gather essential resources.

A Boss Bokoblin soon charges into the fray, heralded by a thunderous horn blast. Vanquish it to unlock the gate blocking progress. Push through the revealed passage, dismantling enemy fortifications until reaching an outpost guarded by a towering Hinox. Exploit its weak points to claim victory, then advance toward the canyon’s apex.

At the final stretch, a Blue Moblin commands the last defensive line. Dispatch it swiftly, clearing the way to confront the apex predator: Lynel. This relentless foe telegraphs its explosive roar—retreat to avoid devastating area damage. Capitalize on post-explosion openings to unleash relentless assaults, depleting its health bar methodically. Successfully toppling Lynel concludes the mission.
