Sheik is one of the fastest Warriors in the game. Her running speed is very fast and her ability to dodge is incredible. But speed is not the only thing to come to Sheik for, no sir and/or ma’am! Her Harp allows her to command the elements! On top of that, she has the ability to create a shield around herself that will protect her from a fixed amount of damage, making her invaluable to anyone trying to get A-Ranks in Adventure Mode. She is, without a doubt, one of the best Warriors in the game.
How to Unlock
Sheik becomes available after completing Scenario 2, “The Sheikah Tribesman,” in Legend Mode.
Sheik’s Weapons
Harp
As mentioned above, the Harp has the ability to control the elements. By using any one of the Harp’s five Combo Attacks, the Harp will become imbued with the power of an element. Which element depends on which Combo Attack you use. Pressing
(

(
in Zelda Style) at this point, Sheik would play her Harp and create a water shield around her, which protects her from damage and effects like Deku Baba poison and Gibdo stunning breath—incredibly useful! Pressing
