They are a part of the [[Yiga Clan]], and occasionally teleport close to [[Link#Breath of the Wild|Link]] after he has defeated [[Master Kohga]] in the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]]. They have an affinity for [[Mighty Bananas]], so Link can use this to his advantage during combat, but this is mainly used as a way of distracting the Blademasters inside of the Hideout. | They are a part of the [[Yiga Clan]], and occasionally teleport close to [[Link#Breath of the Wild|Link]] after he has defeated [[Master Kohga]] in the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]].

The Blademasters at the Hideout during the infiltrations of the [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris (Main Quest)|Divine Beast Vah Naboris quest]] and the [[Kihiro Moh Shrine]] discovery in ''The Champions' Ballad'' [[Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass|DLC]] can kill Link with a single strike, though those encountered in the overworld afterwards are less powerful. | The Blademasters at the Hideout during the infiltrations of the [[Divine Beast Vah Naboris (Main Quest)|Divine Beast Vah Naboris quest]] and the [[Kihiro Moh Shrine]] discovery in ''The Champions' Ballad'' [[Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass|DLC]] can kill Link with a single strike, though those encountered in the overworld afterwards are less powerful. Just as much as these Blademasters can single-strike Link, they can be single-hit killed with basically any weapon when performing successful [[sneakstrike]]s. | ||
Unlike the [[Yiga Footsoldier]]s, they carry a [[Windcleaver]] and are very passive and methodical fighters that make Link keep his distance from them. They can also alter the ground to attack [[Link]], which creates an updraft that, by using the [[Paraglider]], and is a way to get into the air and get in an attack on the Blademaster. | Unlike the [[Yiga Footsoldier]]s, they carry a [[Windcleaver]] and are very passive and methodical fighters that make Link keep his distance from them.

It's assumed that Yiga Blademasters don't die once defeated, but rather, teleport away to flee. However, shooting them with [[Ancient Arrow]]s effectively vaporizes them, implying that they indeed die if this weapon is used against them. | It's assumed that Yiga Blademasters don't die once defeated, but rather, teleport away to flee.

===The Stolen Heirloom=== | |||
A Yiga Blademaster is the main antagonist of ''[[The Stolen Heirloom]]'' [[Shrine Quest]] to unlock the [[Lakna Rokee Shrine]]. He is shown to have stolen the [[Sheikah Heirloom]] from [[Impa#Breath of the Wild|Impa's]] house, as Dorian, one of Impa's guards, is a former Yiga Clansman who defected to the [[Sheikah|Sheikah Tribe]] thanks to his wife, who was previously assassinated by the Yiga Clan when Dorian was sniffed out by the Clan. Recovering the Heirloom involves fighting and defeating said Blademaster. | |||
Given the possibility that the player hasn't gone to the Yiga Clan Hideout as part of the quest to board [[Vah Naboris]], the extorting Blademaster is likely to be the first encounter the player would have with one of these towering shrouded warriors. | |||

*The Yiga Blademasters are the largest Sheikah shown in both games, standing at twice Link's height and with a width similar to a Goron. | |||

*The Blademasters are given to pick up melee weapons that they find lying on the ground in a similar fashion as they do with bananas. However, they don't use these weapons, and once it happens, the picked-up weapon is effectively unrecoverable even if the Blademaster is slain. | |||
