The Trial of the Sword is a special challenge offered to Link after he obtains the Master Sword. It consists of many floors, each containing a series of enemies for Link to defeat. This is akin to previous enemy gauntlets in the series, such as the Cave of Ordeals.

There are three stages to the trial, the Beginning Trials, Middle Trials, and Final Trials, each progressing in difficulty. In each section, Link faces a range of enemies, from the simple Bokoblins, all the way up to the fearful Lynels and Guardians.

At the end of each stage, the Master Sword will be augmented, and its base power will increase by 10 points. After all three sections are completed, the sword will be restored to have its full splendor at all times, with a base power of 60.

Trials

Link begins the trials with no armor or equipment save for the Sheikah Slate; however he can use neither the Amiibo nor the DLC-exclusive Master Cycle Zero runes. As such, Link must slay his enemies and collect equipment and food where available. Every 5 or 6 floors there's a Rest Floor with weapons, food, armor (from the Middle Trials onward) and fairies, as well as a cooking pot. Slain enemies do not drop loot other than weapons, and as such, it's not possible to cook potions from monster parts.

Please note, if playing on Master Mode, all major enemies (Bokoblins, Lizalfos etc.) will be a tier higher than listed here.
