The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom offers players the freedom to choose the order in which they tackle the game’s temples, also known as dungeons. However, the order in which they are completed can affect the difficulty of the gameplay for other parts of the adventure. Each temple is themed by a particular element and provides unique abilities for Link to traverse the challenges. The temples feature creative puzzles, difficult enemies, and an ultimate big boss for each location.
Choosing the order of temples in TOTK is a personal choice, as each player will have a different preferred order. Every temple introduces a Sage companion for Link who can be summoned to join him whenever their ability is needed. This article suggests tackling the Lightning Temple first, as the ability that Link earns is very useful throughout the rest of the game.
Completing the Lightning Temple in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom gives Link the standard Heart Container and unlocks Riju as a companion throughout the rest of TOTK. This allows players to have access to Riju’s Lightning Strike ability, which is a strong ranged attack. Being able to snipe enemies from far away can make things much easier, particularly while Link does not have many heart containers early on in his adventure.
To access the Lightning Temple, players must first complete the quests for Riju within Gerudo Canyon and learn how to work with Riju to effectively use her Lightning Strike ability in tandem with Link. Players go through several quests with Riju before ultimately discovering the Lightning Temple after solving the red pillars puzzle. Riju’s lightning is a key power throughout the temple and particularly in the Tears of the Kingdom boss fight to beat Queen Gibdo.
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom features four temples as a call back to previous Zelda games and to introduce players to each of the Sage’s abilities and camaraderie. The game teaches players how to combine Link and these companions’ skills together to be most effective. The game is unique in its ability to let Link call these friends to his aid whenever they are needed, but they are only available after completing the temples.
