Zelda has a unique power inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. A fairy named Tri gives her the Tri Rod, which allows her to copy data from certain objects. A table, for example, can be copied and summoned from a menu at will.
Zelda can also copy monster data after defeating them once inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. Every piece of furniture or monster uses a certain amount of Tri’s powers, so players can’t summon an army of them on mass, like wheels of cheese in manyThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimmemes. Out of the many monsters Zelda can encounter in the game, these are the most useful.
8Strandtula
Sling Webs Like Spider-Man
Strandtulas can be found all over the game, but players will encounter them inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom’sSuthorn Ruinsfor sure. They’re not great combat Echoes, but they can make traversing early dungeons easy. They are outstanding in 2D sections as they will spin vertical lines for players to climb.
There will be moments even in the late game wherein tight crevices call for these creepy crawlers. Another great spider is called Crawltula, which can climb any surface; however, controlling it via binding can be awkward at times for non-patient players.
7Crow
Get Rupees Fast And Soar Through Hyrule
Crows can also be found all over Hyrule, but if players make their way to the Gerudo Desert, they will find them lining the border between grass and sand for sure. For players unaware, any type of flying enemy can be summoned and then grabbed. If players jump off of a cliff, that flying monster will carry them until they get tired.
Crows are a good early monster for navigating heights, but there is another reason they are worthwhile. Players can get rich withRupees fast inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdomif they spawn Crows as their initial attacks will steal Rupees from enemies.
6ReDead
Stun Enemies With A Wailing Scream
ReDead is not related to theRed Dead Redemptionseries in the slightest besides its location being in a sandy location like the Old West. They can be found lumbering around southern Gerudo Desert ruins and, in the early game, they may kill players for two reasons.
First, their main attack is a scream that will stun all enemies onscreen. They are slow, but if they touch an enemy, chances are they will take a large chunk of life out. The stun scream alone is worth the risk of recruiting a ReDead Echo onto the team though.
5Chompfin
Destroy Competition In The Water
Chompfin can be found in one of the most mysterious locations on the map in the waters of Zora Cove. Southwest of theSea Zora location inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, players will find a sunken ship. Swimming around the ship will be a Chompfin which looks like a shark.
Chompfin is the strongest aquatic monster in the game without a doubt and it can even be helpful in the final boss fight. Killing it may be hard, but a good way to try is to shoot it with arrows from the ship using the Swordfighter form’s bow.
4Peahat
Spin Through Enemy Defenses
The Peahat should be one of the first monsters that players should recruit inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. East of Suthorn Village is a series of caves and a Peahat resides in the third one, which is furthest from the town. It’s a giant plant that takes a bit to get going, but once it starts spinning it will not stop.
If players summon it in a cramped location full of monsters, it can plow through them easily. The only downside is that it is very weak to fire, but players should knowfromPokemongamesthat plant-based things hate fire anyway.
3Bombfish
A More Versatile Bomb For The Series
Instead of giving players bombs like Link in mostZeldagames, Zelda will find a Bombfish. It looks like a derpy fish with a bomb in its mouth, and it is versatile for both exploration and combat purposes. Players can activate the bomb and then feed it to monsters like Deku Baba to kill them instantly.
The Bombfish can also explode walls that have cracks in them. Eventually, players will get a bomb as part of theSwordfighter form, but even when that unlocks inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, the Bombfish will be better to keep on rotation.
2Buzz Blob
Spam These Little Guys Like Fireballs
The Buzz Blob should be familiar to manyZeldafans as it looks like a walking pickle. If players try swiping it, they can get shocked. Periodically, as it waddles along the Faron Wetlands, this version will release a cloud of electricity. All those who dare walk into it will be stunned momentarily.
The stun part in particular is better than the ReDead as the dome does additional damage. Players can shoot these things out like electric bolts at enemies, and it’s really great once players unlock Tri’s long-reach attack inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.
1Darknut 3
Null’s Weakness Incarnate
The Darknut 3 is the third and final version of the Darknut enemy in the game. It’s bigger, has denser armor and more HP, and its swinging axe attack is both strong and reaches a wide area. Players can find it guarding anaccessory inThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdomcalled the Spin Brace.
The cave’s location is east of Scrubton in the Faron Wetlands and the Spin Brace isn’t that great but this new Darknut is. The final boss has a large mass of limbs that need to be chopped and Darknut is just the monster for that, easily making him thestrongest offensive echo inEchoes of Wisdom.
