How Do You Beat Yiga Clan Base?

Quick Fix: Toss Mighty Bananas to distract Yiga Clan members, then slip past while they’re distracted. Avoid combat unless necessary—stealth is your best ally.

What's Happening

Yiga Clan members are rogue Sheikah sworn to Master Kohga, and their hideout is packed with traps, ambush points, and Blademasters who’ll swarm you if alerted.

Unlike regular enemies, Yiga Blademasters trigger reinforcements when spotted, so stealth is critical. (Honestly, this is the best way to survive their base.)

How do you get into the Yiga Clan Hideout?

Enter through the main entrance after completing the "Seeking Out Impa" main quest.

Once you’ve got the Sheikah Slate, you’ll unlock the hideout’s location on your map. Head there, and you’ll find the entrance guarded—but that’s where the Mighty Bananas come in handy.

How do you sneak past the Yiga Clan?

Use Mighty Bananas to distract guards, then slip past while they’re eating.

Timing matters here. Wait for patrols to turn their backs, drop a banana, and move before they finish. (Trust me, this works way better than running blindly.)

How do you get the Mighty Bananas?

Grab them from the chest at the top of the stairs when you first enter the hideout.

That chest sits right at the entrance—no tricks involved. Stock up before you even think about going deeper. (You’ll thank me later.)

How do you get past the first guard in the Yiga Hideout?

Paraglide past him without landing, using the guard’s movement to time your drop.

Stand at the top of the stairs, wait for him to move left, then glide down just past him. No combat, no noise—just clean movement. (This trick saves so much time.)

How do you get past the second guard in the Yiga Hideout?

Drop Mighty Bananas on the path beyond the barrier to distract him.

Walk to the far side, toss a few bananas, and slip by while he’s busy. Repeat this pattern at every choke point. (It’s repetitive, but it’s the safest way.)

How do you get past the third guard in the Yiga Hideout?

Use the same banana distraction method, but watch for Blademasters who spawn when alarms trigger.

If you hear the alert sound, freeze everything with Stasis, then pick off stragglers before they call for backup. (This is where stealth gear really helps.)

How do you get past the fourth guard in the Yiga Hideout?

Combine bomb arrows with stealth to clear multiple enemies at once.

Shoot a bomb arrow into a group, then sprint past while they’re stunned. Just be ready for the explosion radius—don’t stand too close. (A little risky, but it’s effective.)

What happens if you get caught?

Blademasters spawn, and reinforcements keep coming until you either escape or clear the area.

Once the alarm’s raised, stealth is almost impossible. Your best bet? Run for the nearest exit and try again later. (Don’t waste your time fighting—it’s not worth it.)

How do you avoid triggering the Yiga Clan alarm?

Stay crouched, avoid loud weapons, and use distractions like Mighty Bananas.

Even your footsteps matter. Upgrade to Stealth Armor if you can—it reduces detection range significantly. (Small changes make a big difference here.)

How do you clear the Yiga Blademaster fight?

Use Stasis to freeze them, then approach for a Sneakstrike or hit them with a critical arrow.

Blademasters hit hard, so don’t let them surround you. Freeze, strike, and repeat. (This fight is way easier than it looks.)

How do you get the Yiga Mask from the Hideout?

Complete the "Destroy Gohma" side quest inside the hideout to earn the mask.

You’ll need to fight (or sneak past) your way to the boss chamber. Once Gohma’s defeated, the mask is yours. (A nice reward for all that stealth work.)

How do you get the Yiga Spear from the Hideout?

Find the spear in a chest after clearing the hideout’s main chamber.

It’s usually tucked away in a side room or on a high shelf. Keep an eye out during your loot runs. (You’ll want this weapon—it’s pretty strong.)

How do you get the Yiga Tunic from the Hideout?

Loot the tunic from a dead Yiga member or find it in a chest.

It’s often dropped by Blademasters or hidden in supply crates. Equip it for a stealth bonus. (Dress for the job you want, right?)

How do you get the Yiga Diagram from the Hideout?

Pick up the diagram from a table or bookshelf in the hideout’s upper floors.

It’s usually near the boss chamber or in a study area. Scan it with your Sheikah Slate to learn new abilities. (Knowledge is power—and in this case, free upgrades.)

How do you get the Yiga Secret Medallion?

Complete all Yiga Clan side quests to earn the medallion as a reward.

It’s not hidden in the base itself, but finishing their quests unlocks it. Use it to fast-travel to Yiga Clan locations. (Finally, some convenience for all that trouble.)
