'''Calamity Ganon''' is one of the final bosses in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. [[Ganon]] has taken a grotesque form, appearing in a centipede-like figure, with a large head surrounded by Ganondorf's signature long flowing red hair. The beast fights with a combination of the attacks used by the blights he created long ago and puts up a considerable fight even against the [[Master Sword]]'s power. | '''Calamity Ganon''' is one of the final bosses in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.

Calamity Ganon is basically a | Calamity Ganon is basically a "greatest hits" of the four Ganon's that we fought in the various dungeons and he mimics many of their attacks. He will shoot ice blocks at you like Waterblight Ganon, at which you can use [[Cryonis]] to melt them away. He will create a field of thunder spikes like Thunderblight Ganon, at which you should just run away. He will create tornado gusts like Windblight Ganon and you should just sprint away. He'll also use a slow laser shot attack. He'll also take one of Fireblight Ganon's attacks, launching a ball of fire at the battlefield. If you see this, shoot it with an ice arrow before it can ignite the battlefield, or just run away. | ||
Calamity Ganon also has a few melee attacks where he'll swing his flaming sword horizontally or vertically. He'll also swing his smaller blue swords as well. Lastly, like all of the Ganons we fought, Calamity Ganon will shoot a giant laser at you. Your best is to target Calamity Ganon and when the laser is shot, jump to the side to avoid the attack, or, you can perform a [[Perfect Guard]], which, if successful, will stun him for an extended period of time. During this phase, you can launch [[Bomb Arrow]]s or [[Ancient Arrow]]s at him. While these won't deal serious damage, they will slowly but surely chip away at him. The more effective way is to perform either a Perfect Guard or a Perfect Dodge. The Perfect Guard can be used during his melee attacks, however, it is risky, as one mistake will leave you unguarded and you'll take serious damage. | Calamity Ganon also has a few melee attacks where he'll swing his flaming sword horizontally or vertically.

In this phase, he will create an impenetrable orange shield around himself. Arrows, melee weapons, and elemental rods will no longer deal any damage and Calamity Ganon will start getting more aggressive with his laser shots. He'll also have another attack where he launches his spear at Link. | |||
When Calamity Ganon comes crashing to the ground, he'll create a blue circle around him and if you are within it, you will take damage. After he's hit, he'll take a few seconds to recover, and then recreate his impenetrable shield. | When Calamity Ganon comes crashing to the ground, he'll create a blue circle around him and if you are within it, you will take damage. You can perform a Perfect Guard or a Perfect Dodge to most of his attacks, and if you time it right you will be able to perform a Flurry Rush. While doing a Flurry Rush, you will be able to damage him with melee weapons. Also, if you perform a Perfect Guard, he will be damaged by the attack. If you have it, you can also use Urbossas Fury on him at any time to destroy his shield. You can also use Daruk's Protection instead of a Perfect Guard. After he's hit, he'll take a few seconds to recover, and then recreate his impenetrable shield. | ||
Stay close, but not too close to Calamity Ganon. We want to be just close enough so that he will trigger his melee attacks. Time it right and do a Perfect Dodge. Just keep at it with sword slashes until Calamity Ganon has been defeated. | Stay close, but not too close to Calamity Ganon.
