If you’re looking for how to use your Sage abilities in Tears of the Kingdom, this guide will tell you how to obtain them, as well as use them. These abilities are particularly useful and are similar to those of Champion abilities from Breath of the Wild. Here is how you can get them in the game.
How to get Sage Abilities in Tears of the Kingdom
Obtaining the Sage Abilities in Tears of the Kingdom is incredibly easy. All you have to do is complete the main quest for each specific character in order to unlock their Sage abilities. Here are the quests you need to complete:
- Yunobo (Sage of Fire): Complete the “Yunobo of Goron City” questline
- Tulin (Sage of Wind): Complete the “Tulin of Rito Village” questline
- Sidon (Sage of Water): Complete the “Sidon of Zora” questline
- Riju (Sage of Lightning): Complete the “Riju of Gerudo Town” questline
When you have obtained multiple Sages, you can toggle between them from the Key Items tab in your Inventory. There is a 10-second cooldown on each one.
How to use Sage Abilities in Tears of the Kingdom
Yunobo is great for clearing blocked entrances. Those caves you see that have boulders in the way? Yunobo can take care of that for you. Alternatively, in combat, he can use a charged attack that has fire damage.
Sidon can protect you from strong bosses that you are in combat with. He forms a temporary water shield around you that guards you from on-hit attacks. You can also aim at an enemy and swing your weapon to send a wave at them.
Tulin sends a Gust your way so that you can travel further whilst Paragliding. This ability can also be very useful in combat, as you can use it to blow away small enemies.
Riju’s ability conjures up a lightning field. If you hit an enemy with an arrow within this field, lightning will strike them and do immense damage to them.
Equally, you can upgrade your Sage abilities over time with Sage’s Wills. To upgrade them, you need four Sage’s Wills, and then offer them to the Goddess statues. This will make them more powerful over time.
