Sometimes, brute force is all you need to accomplish a task in Zelda: TotK. The second main tower in the game, but the first one that offers a challenge, is Hyrule Field Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, which is located inside an enemy base.
To scan the area’s map and locate the shrines, Link needs to access a proper vantage point. This is only possible by activating the Hyrule Field Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
In this guide, we will help you locate this tower and complete it in both ways, going gun blazing or by becoming a ninja.
Hyrule Field Skyview Tower Location in Zelda: TotK
As the name shows, Hyrule Field Skyview Tower is in Hyrule Field to the Southwest of Lookout Landing. It is near the Mayachin shrine, right below Exchange Ruins.
The exact coordinates of the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are (-0749, -1018, 0064). This Skyview Tower is inside a Blue Bokoblin base, so we recommend carrying some good, fused weapons and health recovery items.
How to activate the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower
Hyrule Field Tower requires Link to clear a settlement of Blue Bokoblins to activate its console. This Skyview Tower is on a cliff and is surrounded by wooden logs, preventing the entry of outsiders. The only way to reach the tower is by traversing the bridge leading to the door of the Bokoblin Settlement.
Hyrule Field Skyview Tower is the second tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom you will come across. At this point, you probably won’t have enough resources to take down a mob of enemies. To make things worse, this mob is led by a Blue Boss Bokoblin with massive HP and attack power. The boss can kill Link with one hit quite easily.
1. There are various ways to approach the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. You can simply run through the enemy mob and activate the tower. This is the easiest method with an extremely high success rate.
2. You can use a bow to take out the enemies outside the encampment, like Blue Moblin and the one with the alarm. Then wait till nightfall. Simply sneak into the settlement and activate the tower.
3. Or you can do it in the way of true Hylian hero Link is. Defeating all the enemies in the camp and taking the settlement for yourself and the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower as your spoil of war.
4. Collect a few arrows and Fire Plants from the surroundings. Fuse some fast weapons, including spears. Approach the settlement and kill the early enemies by throwing Fire Fruit on explosive canisters. Use Dodge to activate Flurry Rush as much as you can.
5. Bokoblins will throw a spiked ball at you on the bridge. Use the Recall ability on the ball to reverse its direction. Use fire arrows to take down the smaller enemies. 6. Take out your best weapon and start chipping away at Blue Boss Bokoblin’s health bar.
7. After defeating all the enemies in the area, go like a boss and interact with the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower’s console to activate it.
8. Step on the tower’s launch pad to get airborne. Use your glider to come back down safely after acquiring the map of the Hyrule Field.
9. This will complete the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and now you are free to explore Hyrule Field Sky anytime you want.
