Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is about avoiding distractions and focusing on the main task at hand. A massive structure blocks the opening of the Skyview Tower, and you must devise a way to remove it.
Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom requires manipulating the ancient structures around it using Ascend and Ultrahand abilities. The only challenges come from a few weak construct enemies and Billson, who always tries to make the puzzles more difficult with her ambiguous dialogue.
But fret not—as always, we will help you activate this Skyview Tower as easily as possible.
Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower Location in Zelda: TotK
Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower is in the Great Hyrule Forest region, within Thyphlo Ruins in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. These ruins are found North of Lake Mekar. The tower’s coordinates are (0344, 3133, 0180), and it is to the North of Central Hyrule.
Thyphlo Ruins is the calmest region in all of Hyrule. You don’t need any additional gear to access this Skyview Tower. However, the only places from where you can access the tower are either Tabantha Tundra (coldest region) or Eldin (hottest region), so prepare accordingly by increasing your heat and cold resistance.
How to Activate the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower
Upon reaching the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you will once again encounter the Rito engineer, Billson. She was there to fix the Skyview Tower but could not identify the main problem.
According to Billson, the console is in working order, so there must be something wrong with the tower itself. She is the same ambiguous, irritating Rito, who never helps.
1. To find the actual problem with the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower, go outside and locate some zonai hover platforms. These are placed at regular intervals from each other and can be moved using Ultrahand ability.
2. You can climb the lowest platform by using Ascend ability. Or simply climb a ruined building nearby and make your way to the top of that platform.
3. You will find a couple of zonai rockets lying on the top of the platform. Pick up a rocket, attach it to the top of the hover platform, and hit it.
4. This will activate the rocket and it will pull the platform way above the top of the tower.
5. Jump from the platform and use your paraglider to reach the top of the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower.
6. You will find another platform placed on the top of the Skyview tower, blocking the opening of its launchpad. To activate the tower, you need to remove the hover platform with the help of Ultrahand.
7. Once again, you can achieve this task in a variety of ways, but let us guide you in the simplest manner possible. Remember, you can’t move an object on which you are standing. From the platform stopping the opening of the tower, drop down to the top of the tower. This is a very small area where you can barely fit.
8. Now move the platform using Ultrahand and remove it from the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower’s top.
9. Drop down with the help of your glider and talk to Billson again. She will tell you that the console is fixed. Interact with the console to activate the Thyphlo Ruins Skyview Tower in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and unlock a fast travel point.
10. You can now visit this Skyview Tower anytime you want and use it to access the Hyrule Forest skies.
