Walkthrough:Lightning Temple (Tears of the Kingdom)

The Lightning Temple Walkthrough is a full guide to completing the Lightning Temple in Tears of the Kingdom. It includes a guide for the dungeon, including activating all four batteries, and defeating the dungeon boss, Queen Gibdo. The four batteries can be done in any order.

Entrance

• In the first room of the temple, drop a Fan on the ground. Use it to clear the sand that is in the room. In particular, clear the sand in the center of the room and then step on the switch that appears to open the nearby door.
• Pickup a nearby Torch and light it to make it easier to see. Climb down the steps and walk ahead a series of rooms.
• Turn to the right and be careful of the false floor that will drop when Link steps on it. Defeat the Gibdos here by using the flames and the torch. Up ahead, Link will find some horizontal flames. Wait for them to settle and then run through. On the other side of the flames, step on the floor switch to allow Riju to catch back up.
• In the next area there are massive boulders that are flowing down, preventing Link from making it by. Use Recall to cause the boulder to move backward. It's best to use Recall when the boulder is off in the distance. You can use recall multiple times. Once you get by, step on the switch and head through the opening.
• Walk down the hallway and defeat the series of Gibdos. In the next room, Link can drop down and use Ultrahand to pull the cover to find a Gerudo Bow. In this room, defeat the Gibdo, and then use a lightning attack to destroy the Gibdo Hive to prevent more from spawning.
• Continue onward to enter the Room of Hopeful Light. Defeat the Soldier Construct and then pull the Mirror from the sand. Hold the mirror in the light so that it reflects at the orange circle. This will cause it to turn green and open the door.
• Run up the stairs to arrive at the Room of Ascension, the main chamber of the temple. Run forward and examine the pedestal.

Battery - 1F - Northeast

• The first battery is found straight ahead from the podium, behind a door to the northeast. Just to the right of the door, at the east side of the room, Link can use Ultrahand to move the blocks that are here, creating a path for him and Riju to walk.
• On the other side of the wall, charge a lightning attack and shoot the battery with an arrow. This will charge the battery and send the charge to the large elevator in the Room of Ascension.
