The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a plethora of mini-bosses to beat, but Phantom Ganon is one of the hardest. However, with the proper preparation and by following this guide, you’ll easily defeat this shadowy apparition.
How to defeat all types of Phantom Ganon in Tears of the Kingdom
The best way to defeat Phantom Ganon is by preparing Link with Gloom-resistant armor and sundelion dishes. Phantom Ganon can deal lots of Gloom damage, and when coupled with its high damage output, you can find yourself in trouble very quickly.
Once you’ve prepared appropriately, make sure you equip a shield for combat. You’ll be relying on a lot of blocking and dodging to get through this fight, but you may want to rely on regular shield blocking due to Phantom Ganon’s high damage output.
How to find Phantom Ganon’s location in Tears of the Kingdom
Phantom Ganon will spawn once you’ve defeated a group of Gloom Hands. These dangerous enemies will grab you and inflict Gloom damage in the process. Defeat these creatures by shaking your analogic sticks when you’re grabbed. If you’re fast enough, you won’t lose any hearts to Gloom.
Of course, to defeat Phantom Ganon, you must ensure you’re equipped with the most powerful weapons on hand. If you’ve acquired it, here’s how to fix the Master Sword.
