Starting Location: Seeking the Pirate Hideout
Clear out Monster Stronghold 1
It doesn’t matter which Monster Stronghold you clear first as you will need to clear all three.
- Head to the closest stronghold near you:
- Locate the archer in the lowest tower and shoot him with arrows:
- Climb up on his perch and look to the southwest and you will see another Bokoblin, glide over and take it out:
- Climb up the ladder and take out the third Bokoblin on this floor but be careful of the ice arrows from the archer to the south:
- Once you take out the third Bokoblin look to the south and shoot the Bokoblin shooting at you:
- Head up the ladder located on the opposite side of the wall. At the top you will find the last Bokoblin in this stronghold. Attack it or push it off the edge to make it die of fall damage. Once you have cleared out all 5 enemies this step will be complete:
Clear out Monster Stronghold 2
It doesn’t matter which Monster Stronghold you clear first as you will need to clear all three.
- Head to the second Monster Stronghold located on the Southeastern side of the island:
- Climb on top of the skull in the center of the camp without being noticed. Take aim at the archer on the platform closest to you and shoot it with your bow:
- Crouch quickly after taking out the archer so you aren’t seen. Another Bokoblin will go over to investigate what happened. Use your bow to take out this one too:
- The Blue Lizarlfos and other Bokoblin below will become aware of your presence. Use bomb arrows (Bombs can be found in a chest at the previous stronghold at the top level) to make short work of these two enemies:
- Finally off overlooking the cliffs is another archer. Hop down and get close and melee this last enemy to secure this stronghold:
Clear out Monster Stronghold 3
Head to the final Monster Stronghold.
- This one is the most difficult of the three:
- Head up the hill but be careful, the Bokoblin at the top of the hill will try to catch you with a boobytrap using a giant spike ball. Avoid it and head up the hill to melee this Bokoblin:
- At the top of the area you will see two archers and a Black Bokoblin and Black Moblin by a campfire. Shoot the archer on the right taking it out:
- The Moblin and Bokoblin will notice you, let them chase you down the hill. The Bokoblin is faster and easier to take out, let the Moblin swing at you so you have time to take out the Bokoblin. Once the Bokoblin is defeated turn your attention to the Moblin and bait out its attacks while counterattacking:
- Head back up the hill and dispatch of the final enemy to secure this camp:
Inform Sesami
Head back to Sesami to let him know that the strongholds have been defeated:
Upon informing him the strongholds are defeated he will inform you that there was a pirate ship sighting but it disappeared around the south side of the island.
Find the Secret Hideout
Head to the South side of the island and glide off the edge and look back at the mountain to see a hole in the side of the cliff with a pirate ship in it:
Glide on top of the skull and use bomb arrows to defeat the two Black Bokoblins and the Black Boss Bokoblin in the center of the ship:
There are 3 archers, two on the right side of the ship and one on the left. There is a Bokoblin on the dock to the left. Either take them out with your bow or glide over to them and melee them.
Once those four enemies are defeated look to the Crow’s Nest of the ship and you will see an archer shooting electric arrows. Head up to where that Bokoblin is and melee it or shoot it with your arrows:
Return to Sesami
Once you have defeated all eight enemies in the cave around the pirate’s ship head back to Sesami to complete the quest and collect your reward:
