Defeat the Zephyr Guardian

Defeat the Zephyr Guardian in Sword of the Sea by exposing its core after specific attacks. Maintain high speed and use Gust Dash to dodge wind attacks.

Upon entering the Shrine of the Zephyr, you'll be confronted by the Zephyr Guardian, your first major enemy. This guardian is a large, ethereal construct that attacks with gusts of wind and projectile orbs. Its primary weakness is its core, which is only exposed after it performs certain attacks. The strategy is to maintain high speed, dodging its wind attacks by boosting and jumping. When it charges up a large wind blast, it will briefly expose its core. Boost towards it and use your basic attack (R1/RB) to deal damage. Repeat this process, being mindful of its area-of-effect attacks. After a few successful hits, the guardian will dissipate, leaving behind the Wind Relic. Collect it to unlock the 'Gust Dash' ability, allowing for quick aerial maneuvers.
