The Still World path is fairly straightforward to the dungeon, though do not forget to hit the checkpoint and bind a treasure chest containing seven Radiant Butter from the ground along the way. Hit the next checkpoint at the Hyrule Castle entrance, then move forward and defeat the Darknut quickly with Echoes and Swordfighter Form to learn the Darknut Lv. 2 Echo.

Continue forward to meet the suspended King of Hyrule and bind the throne chair to move it out of the way to reveal a ladder. Hit the next checkpoint and bind the northeast wall to open a passage. The next area has guards that will send you a shadow realm if they see you.

If you get caught by the guards, defeat the enemies in the shadow room and try sneaking through again. Place obstacles to block their line of vision and run when they turn the other direction. Use the Crawltila and Water Block Echoes earned for the Jabul Ruins dungeon to get to higher ground and make your way to the eastern door.

Climb over the cell wall, hit the checkpoint, and go down the ladder. Defeat all the Darknuts and move on. The next room has three treasure chests with three Twisted Pumpkins, five Floral Nectar, and a Monster Stone.

The next room has four torches to light with two just out of reach, though you can hold the Echo button to launch them further. Use the Brazier or Ignizol Echoes to light each of the torches. You can summon Echoes through chain-link gates, which will be necessary for two of the four torches. The Echo can reach the left most torch easily, while the right most torch will require you to summon the Echo on the lone platform and then bind it across the gap into the torch.

Take out the Gustmasters in the next room with Flying Tile Echoes or Peahat Echoes as you will be blown away once too close. Then use a row of Water Block Echoes as a bridge to get across the chasm. Take the right door and blow away the sand dunes to uncover a chest with the Dungeon Map. Go back and get to the northern door with either a Flying Tile or Water Block bridge. Just make sure to use the Flying Tile while standing on the blue symbol square to easily fly across the gap before the north door.

Hit the checkpoint and go through the left door. Jump or Flying Tile across the downward current and take the ladder. Use a Tangler Lv. 2 Echo to light your way through the dark underwater passage. You will also need the Swordfighter Form to clear away the purple goo web with your sword. There are two treasure chests with Rupees. Make your way northwest to the ladder.

Sneak past the shadow guards and take the ladder all the way to the right. Send a Boulder Echo to the button on the lone pillar to spawn a treasure chest in the middle of the room. Use a Flying Tile to soar above the guard to the chest containing a Small Key, then warp back to the main room with the boss door in it.

Take the right path. Make a little staircase and use the Bombfish Echo on the crack in the wall to discover a treasure chest with 50 Rupees. The east door in the sand room will be locked, so take the southern door that needs the Small Key.

Defeat the Gustmaster and use a Flying Tile Echo to easily clear the two gaps and pillar. Otherwise, you will have to go around and climb spider stands over a bottomless pit. The next room will contain two Darknuts and a Ball-and-Chain Trooper.

Use your Swordfighter Form to quickly take out all three enemies, being especially careful with the long range ball and chain. The sword is the easiest, though summoning Echoes can distract while getting a few hits in. Learn the new Ball-and-Chain Trooper Echo and move on to the next room containing three treasure chests with a Golden Egg, the Frog Ring accessory that enables players to jump one more space higher, and the Big Key.

Warp back to the main room and use the Big Key on the boss door to fight Ganon. While this is far from the end of the adventure, be sure to pick up a full Heart Container to increase your health and carry on with the further dangers in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.
