Gameplay Hints
Destroying dark cages: Use Nuva Blasts to destroy dark cages. Charge
your elemental energy, then immediately press Y.
Defeating the Brown Rakhshi: To defeat the Brown Rakhshi, corner him on one of the floating wood raft-like objects. Then, shoot that one with elemental energy and you will win the level. Note: This is sometimes difficult to do.
Defeating Makuta: When you are at the end of the game and are battling Makuta. press A(2), Y. You should be gliding and dodging all attacks except for the flying bees.
In Makuta's first phase, you cannot do anything to him except make him angry. He will teleport to a location around the arena (in front of the metal plates) and summon Rahi. Defeat the Rahi (you have infinite elemental energy) and Makuta with jump, sending out a shockwave and cracking the ground. Then, teleport to another spot. Repeat this four more times.
On the fifth time you do this, he will break the ground and fall in. Takanuva will follow him down. You are in a perpetual fall with the broken ground as your platform. If you fall, you will die At the beginning of the phase, Makuta will "electrify" the metal plates with dark energy. You must run to each plate and pass through to purify it.
This will cause it to turn over, and Makuta's shield to weaken. Do this to all four and Makuta's shield will be gone. Wait for him to shoot an energy ball at you and bounce it back with your shield. He will "electrify" the plates again and four pieces of the ground will fall away. Repeat the process (this time he will be shoot two blasts), and the plates will fall away and you can hurt him. When hit with his energy balls, he will bend over and you can shoot his head. Do this three times to win. Be careful, as the piece of ground you are standing on will flip after about five seconds.
Dodging attacks and refilling your Mana: When getting attacked (this works well when facing more than one opponent), jump and use your shield rapidly. The attack will completely miss and you will refill your Mana. Note: Do not do this with dragonflies and other flying enemies. It may work, but there is less chance of it working. For extra effect, while in the air press Attack. Since enemies are vulnerable when they attack you, they will get serious damage.
