Watch out! All attacks are devastating!

Limited Warrior: Midna (Recommended Level: Any)

Watch Out! Scenarios can get pretty hairy if you don’t, well, watch out! Any enemy in these battles—even the basic soldier—can take you down to a quarter heart in a single hit. Basically, you can take two hits before you fail the Scenario. Luckily, these are incredibly straightforward fights, working similarly to the Defeat all enemies! Scenarios. Your goal is to defeat a certain number of Captains. Your best bet is to stick to ranged weapons and use your Bow and Arrow frequently. Carve your way into groups of enemies, instead of running through them, and don’t linger. You’ve got this!

Defeat 20 enemy Captains

The Hylian Captains are your main opponents. Luckily, they are probably the easiest Captains to face in the game, since they have a very simple move set that exclusively involves the use of their swords at short range. Keep your distance, use your Bow and Arrow, and don’t stay still for long and you’ll have this Scenarios in the bag. Just make sure to take out the Beamos as soon as possible; they’ll cause you a good bit of trouble if you leave them to their own devices.

Capture the enemy Keep!

Limited Warrior: Link and his Fire Rod (Recommended Level: 30)

Adventure Battle Scenarios are almost identical to the Scenarios in Legend Mode. You have the full battlefield at your disposal, an enemy Captain/Warrior to defeat to win the Scenario, and teammates to assist you. The key difference is that you typically have only a single mission that appears at the start of the battle, which makes up the bulk of the entire fight. Once that mission is completed, you need only to defeat the enemy Commander to win the Scenario.

Sealed Grounds

Capture all Keeps to weaken the enemy

You need to capture the East, West, East Temple, and Southwest Keeps to complete this mission. Go first to the East Keep directly to the north of your starting point. You can grab the Fairy of Water while you’re there to make capturing the East Keep more manageable.

Defeat the Fortifier Captains

Shortly after the Scenario begins, Fortifier Captains will enter the battlefield. Take them out immediately or else they fortify any Keeps they come across, which makes it a royal pain to capture them.

After defeating the Fortifier Captains, head to the West Keep next. Use your Fairy of Water to break the Barrier of Water, then capture the keep to get your hands on a Fairy of Fire.

Defeat the Manhandla Stalks

After capturing your second marked Keep, Manhandla Stalks will appear on the map and begin pelting the Allied Base with seeds. Don’t delay: Look for their location on the Battlefield Info screen and take them out immediately.

Defeat the enemy Commander

You’ll find Wizzro in the Enemy Base Keep.

Defeat 20 enemy Captains

The Captains in this fight are actually miniature versions of The Imprisoned. These creatures can be a really problem in a Scenario like this, but they do have one very big flaw that makes them manageable: their slow speed. They have a big warm-up period for any attacks they launch and that period won’t start until you’re fairly close to them. Use this to your advantage and blitz everyone of The Imprisoned; if you don’t let them finish their warm-up, they can’t hurt you. Be fast and accurate to make short work of this Scenario.

F-4

Defeat all Giant Bosses within 10 minutes!

Defeat all Giant Bosses! Scenarios require you to do just that: defeat all giant bosses on the map within the time limit. These Scenarios almost always consist of two or three of the same boss attacking different corners of a confined map at once. Pick your strongest Warrior and challenge the Giant Bosses one at a time and you’ll be fine. Just try to divide up your time evenly for each of the bosses. If you notice that fighting any monster is taking more than half of your time for any monster, quit the Scenario, level up your character, and try again. If that still doesn’t cut it, unlock some of the stronger Weapons in Adventure Mode and come back at a later time.

Two King Dodongos

If you’ve ever played a Legend of Zelda title before, you know exactly what to do with these fellows. Wait for their mouth to open, then start shoveling Bombs into it.

One thing to note: Ghirahim will turn traitorous almost immediately after the Scenario begins. If your Warrior is strong enough, feel free to take him out, otherwise do your best to avoid him.

F-5

A Warrior of Darkness!

Limited Warrior: Fi (Recommended Level: 30)

Adventure Battle Scenarios are almost identical to the Scenarios in Legend Mode. You have the full battlefield at your disposal, an enemy Captain/Warrior to defeat to win the Scenario, and teammates to assist you. The key difference is that you typically have only a single mission that appears at the start of the battle, which makes up the bulk of the entire fight. Once that mission is completed, you need only to defeat the enemy Commander to win the Scenario.

Skyloft

Defend allied Keeps and defeat enemy forces

Your job is to stop the enemy forces from taking any of your Keeps. If they do, they’ll gain a morale boost, making the battle that much harder, and you’ll then be tasked with recapturing that Keep.

An allied Cucco appears shortly after the start of the Scenario. Keep it safe and it’ll continuously call more Cucco fighters to fight for your army as you defeat more enemies.

There are three Bombchus on the map that will begin going after your Keeps one at a time. The north Bombchu will move first, followed by the western, then the southeastern. Take them out in that order and waste no time doing so; if one of them blows up in a Keep, you will instantly lose it. Once you’ve finished defeating all of the Bombchus, you will have completed the mission and the enemy Commander’s gates will open up.

Defeat the enemy Commander

Zelda can be found in the Enemy Base Keep.

Fight through the Twilight Princess quiz!

Limited Warrior: Midna (Recommended Level: 25)

Quizzes are Scenarios where you have to answer three questions about a specific Zelda title or element in Hyrule Warriors. The questions will always be answered by defeating the enemy that matches the description. For example: a question could say, “Defeat the enemy that holds a shield.” Two enemies will appear: a Big Poe and a Shield Moblin. Just defeat the enemy holding the shield and you’ll have successfully answered the question. It’s that easy. Just be careful not to defeat the wrong enemy while fighting the right one and you’ll have no issues with these challenges.

F-11

Defeat 400 enemies within 10 minutes!

This is one of the more straightforward Scenario types in Adventure Mode. Defeat the listed number of enemies in the given amount of time to win. Don’t linger on individual enemies and do your best to ignore enemy Warriors, Captains, and Bosses; they are only there to distract you from your goal. Enemy Warriors and Captains will boost the morale of the enemy troops currently in the battlefield, but unless you’re struggling to survive, you can feel free to carry on defeating enemies as usual.

Avoid taking too much damage and defeat the enemies swiftly and you’ll walk out of these battles with an A-Rank.

Two Big Poes

Big Poes teleport around the area they are in, which is their best form of defense. They will almost always attack immediately after teleporting and the attack they perform will usually reveal their Weak Point Mark. Put pressure on them with vigorous attacks to force them to teleport, then deplete their Mark by hitting them with a Weak Point Smash.

ReDead Knight and Two Lizalfos

The ReDead Knight is only a nuisance in this fight, so don’t worry too much about it. Instead, focus on defeating the Lizalfos by attacking them until they knock you back with a Force Blast. They almost always follow up a Force Blast with an attack that reveals their Weak Point Mark.
