Hyrule Warriors Legends eGuide Warriors & Weapons

Darunia

Darunia is the perfect alternative to Ganondorf, for those of you who prefer to use, well, someone not quite so evil and bent on the destruction of all things. Darunia is sluggish, same as Ganondorf, but he is also similarly powerful. There is a pretty big difference between the two characters, however: Darunia’s Combo Attacks are far and away more useful than Ganondorf’s. In fact, they’re pretty great compared to all other Warriors, too. Darunia’s Regular Attacks are also really solid, but a bit lacking in range. All in all, Darunia’s a quality Warrior that fans of slow, but monstrously powerful characters will get a lot out of.

How to unlock

Darunia becomes available after completing “Land of Myth” in Legend Mode.

Darunia’s Weapons

Hammer

The Hammer is a heavy hitter with great Combo Attacks and reliable Regular Attacks. There aren’t any special mechanics for making this thing what it is; it’s just a straightforward monster masher and fence builder. If you’ve used any other Warrior, then you know exactly how this thing functions and you can expect it to pack a punch.

Magic Hammer

This is Darunia’s starting weapon.

Igneous Hammer
