Fight Master Kohga in Southwestern Abandoned Mine

Defeating Master Kohga in the Southwestern Abandoned Mine requires a strategic approach. Players must first aim and hit the enemy with precise arrow shots to knock him from his glider. Once he is on the ground, players can unleash a series of powerful melee attacks. However, landing the arrow shots can be challenging, but players can use the spring in the arena to their advantage. By launching TotK's Link from the spring, players can temporarily slow down time, glide towards Master Kohga, and draw a bow while airborne, making it easier to hit him with arrows.

Prepare to face off against Master Kohga once again, but this time he has a formidable construct to aid him. To defeat him, you'll need to knock him off his machine just like in previous battles. There are two effective ways to do this. The first is to target Kohga with a well-placed arrow before he can activate his shield. Alternatively, use a hammer to slam the construct into the barbed wire lining the arena. Choose your strategy wisely and emerge victorious.
