In the beginning ofZelda: Echoes of Wisdom, the Princess will end up in the underground prison of Hyrule Castle. This is where your friend, Tri, gives you thepower of the Tri Rod. Interacting with the wooden table in the jail cell will grant Zelda the use of theTableecho.
After leaving the prison cell, Zelda will start to encounter some of the most attentiveHyrule guards. You’ll need to make your way along the path (all the way left) without alerting the guards of Zelda’s presence. Keep reading to find out the best way to get around security and progress throughEchoes of Wisdom.
During this sequence, Zelda can learn theHyrule-castle-potandWooden-boxEchoes. These will be very useful for distracting the guards.
How to Get Past the Guards and Stealth Your Way Out of the Prison in Echoes of Wisdom
First Guard by Himself
For the first guard in the room, we stacked two tables on top of each other against the shelf and then put another table in front of the stack to climb on top.
Guard 2 & 3
For the next two guards circling the storage junk, we summoned a box echo in front of the path on the lower end, blocking the guards. We made the two guards get stuck in the bottom section so we could sneak past them from behind.
The next two guards facing the wall can be passed easily, without needing to distract them or anything. On to the next one…
Guard 6
Just climb the wooden ladder to the right of the guard and walk across the three barrels in the back. You can get the Hyrule castle pot Echo up on this platform. You can throw them to distract guards and you can even jump inside it and move around slowly.
Guard 7
For the guy left of the Hyrule pots, just go ahead and toss a pot in the northern corner. It’ll make him investigate the location of where you threw the pot. Use that time to run behind him to get to the next (and last guard) of thisEchoes of Wisdomstealth section.
Last Guard
For the last guard (guard #8), we summoned the Pot Echo and tossed it towards the south. you’re able to probably throw the pot anywhere, as long as you have time (and the space) to get to the left side without the guard noticing you.
After you escape, you willrun into Impa, and you’ll finally be able to change into Link’s hooded outfit.
