Woodlands Guide

The Woodlands is the first area of the Drablands. Like every area, it has four levels, each split into four stages, and the last stage of each level is a mini-boss or boss fight. Each level gives your team the items it needs at the start. Here's how to get through all four Woodlands levels.

Level 1: Deku Forest

  1. Stage 1: press three floor switches at the same time. Two are up on high platforms, so make a totem and throw a hero up to each one.
  2. Stage 2: defeat the Chuchus. Throw heroes up to the higher ground to reach them.
  3. Stage 3: ride the moving platforms, and hit the three crystal switches. Shoot them with arrows from a distance.
  4. Stage 4 (mini-boss): Deku Scrubs. Four Deku Scrubs dive underground when you get close, so shoot them with arrows from a distance. Two of them can only be hit from a two-hero totem, and the one at the far north needs a three-hero totem.

Level 2: Buzz Blob Cave

  1. Hit the crystal switches from a distance; some can only be reached from a three-hero totem.
  2. Mini-boss: Electric Blob King. Its weak point is a red orb, and only arrows can hurt it. Hit the orb four times with all three heroes on the ground, then four times from a two-hero totem as it grows, then four times from a three-hero totem.

Level 3: Moblin Base

  1. Use two-hero totems to hit the crystal switches, and carry the key across the river.
  2. Mini-boss: Moblins. A single hero can defeat the Moblins on the ground. The ones riding invulnerable Armos need a totem to reach. The two on the raised platforms at the sides need a three-hero totem and bombs.

Level 4: Forest Temple

  1. Boss: Margoma. Wait for Margoma to crash into a wall and stun itself, then make a three-hero totem and drop a bomb onto its center. When its eye is exposed, have a hero stand on it and attack with the sword. Repeat until its shell is destroyed. Then the eye bounces around the arena; shoot it with arrows to stun it and finish it off with your swords.

Riverside: Level 1, Secret Fortress

The first level of the next area hands your team Water Rods. Use them to raise pillars and paths of water. Defeat the Moblins with your swords, and use a two-hero totem to hit the bomb-spitting Keeleon.
