Botw Combat Guide

Ok for all of those botw players out there, here is some good combat instructions for people who need help/are struggling in battle

-Locking on: lock on to a opponent with ZL! This will pull up your shield if you have one also!
-Do NOT scatter attack monsters: focus on one at a time! You're getting nowhere if you try to attack them scatter fashion! Focus on one, and kill him, then go to work on another
-Flurry rushes: doing flurry rushes is a must. Hold down ZL, then move the top left toggle backwards or to the sides, then press X, and you will execute a backflip or side hop, respectively. If you do it a fraction of a second before a attack, you will activate a flurry rush. You then just spam Y until the rush stops. You probably want to master this before you get of the Great Plateau
-Perfect guard: Even this I haven't mastered. So you hold ZL, then you press A just before a attack to do a perfect guard. If you time this right, your opponent will be vulnerable to a full attack combo. With guardians, if you do this at the right time, you can deflect their laser beams back at them.

  We should all know how to use a bow, so I won't put that in, but a bow can be useful in some combat situations. Hope you use my advice well!
