The Ultimate Zelda Strategy: Unleashing Fear and Chaos on Yiga Clan with Clever Disguises

In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, a clever player scared off a patrolling member of the Yiga Clan in the Depths by using a disguise. Despite the Yiga Clan's relentless efforts against Link, players can prepare themselves for infiltrating the clan by exploring Hyrule and uncovering the locations of their hideouts.

During their quest to acquire the Autobuild ability, players in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will come face to face with the leader of the Yiga Clan, Master Kohga. Intent on using this ability and the power of Zonai technology against Link, Master Kohga hopes to win the favor of the "Magnificent One" and bring about the end of the world. After confronting Master Kohga in the Depths, Link is entrusted with the task of putting an end to the Yiga Clan's plots once again by the Ancient Zonai Constructs.

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player, BrickRush171, successfully boarded a wing glider operated by the Yiga Clan, causing the pilot to panic when Link's Yiga Armor set was removed. In the Depths, Yiga Clan members patrol the areas surrounding their hideouts in search of Link, reacting to the news of Master Kohga's encounter. The Yiga Clan utilizes Zonai wing gliders for reconnaissance, but players can seize the opportunity to hijack the gliders by timing their actions carefully and being aware of their surroundings. BrickRush171 managed to infiltrate a nearby hideout by donning a convincing disguise, gaining access to the wing glider, and startling the Yiga Clan member by exposing Link's true identity.

To carry out this prank against a Yiga Clan member in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, players must first possess a complete set of Yiga Armor. Defeating clan members near Mount Hylia, the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab, and Aldor Foothills allows players to acquire three pieces of the Yiga Armor set. Once the set is complete, Link can successfully masquerade as a member of the clan, enabling him to gain entry into the primary Yiga Clan hideout located in the Gerudo Desert.

The Yiga Armor in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom functions as a clever disguise that allows players to exploit unsuspecting enemies. Additionally, there is a new trick revealed by BrickRush171 that could be advantageous for navigating the Depths. Utilizing Zonai wing gliders, Link can swiftly cover considerable distances.

While certain weapons from the Yiga Clan make a return in Zelda: Breath of the Wild, there are some notable omissions in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This latest Zelda installment encourages players to combine their own formidable weapons; however, enthusiasts of Breath of the Wild may feel a loss without unique weapons like the Demon Carver and Vicious Sickle. Fortunately, players in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom can acquire an abundance of dependable Eightfold Blade weapons, a common drop from Yiga Clan members.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now for Nintendo Switch.
