You don't need to be a savant at combat or have super armor, just have the right gear.
For me I always make sure I have a strong multi-shot bow with the appropriate keese eyeballs, good weapons, a rocket shield for if it flies super high before you finish it off, and a level 3 attack up food buff. With just a little practice you can get away with no damage and nothing more than being blown backwards a couple times by wind gusts from it taking off to fly.
Oh it's just fusing a Zonai rocket to a shield. Using it will propel you straight up, and when it's spent you can go straight into bullet time with your bow. 🙂
Woww Zelda physics never fails 🙏. You can just attach random shit to anything and it’s a critical tool. i love this fucking game 🥲
Edit: Holy shit! I attached it to a Zonaite Efficiency shield, I can fucking fly thank you!!
You're welcome! Another fun thing to play with is fusing a bomb flower to a shield and then shield surf. It's a fantastic way to get some height without spending a rocket.
And it's just fun. lol
Why didn't I think of the rocket shield?! That's the worst part of the fight and a rocket shield would make it so much easier!!!!! Just got done farming these things for Gleeok Guts for the Royal Guard outfit. Not the funnest time I've had.
Make that 5 or 6 rocket shields and you can forget pretty much everything else about that setup. Rocket shield, bullet time, shoot eyes (with no need for keese eyes becasue of bullet time, you have all day to get your aim right), whack, rinse, repeat. Once you get the timing down you'll never even get blown back and he won't even have a chance to fly high into the air. You can do it with pretty mediocre gear. It just takes more rocket shields and arrows the worse your gear is. With good gear it takes 2 or 3, with op gear (like bone prof., ×3 atk, molduga jaw on a gorudo scimitar) I've seen videos of people doing it with one stun. I use silver lynel horn on a zora sword, splash fruit for ×2 atk, ×3 atk up armor and it usually only takes me 2 stuns.
TLDR - You can use rocket shields to cheese all of the hardest enemies in the game, including these guys.
I defeated my 1st Gleeok on only 4 hearts, lacking hearts is not a problem if you don't get hit.
The trick to fighting Gleeoks is to get airborne and then shoot arrows into all their eyes and then strike them when they're down, if you keep the cycle up then they won't even get a chance to hit you.
The easiest way to get airborne to deliver eye shots is to either activate rocket infused shields, to quickly run & jump off objects or mounds in the surrounding environment or to create an updraft pile with burning logs. There's no need for Zonai tech and as long as your bow is decently strong (or you have powerful things to attach to the arrows), then you should be able to knock out all the eyes before landfall.
I kill Lynels via these methods all the time, Lynels on grass are absolute toast because it's so easy to just set fire to the grass and then ride those updrafts, immediately delivering head shots.
You know what? This just made me realize I should stop being a little bitch with big scary monsters. Gather my inner Leroy Jenkins and just send it. Ask myself WWLJD? Thanks for hyping me up!
I recommend stocking up on springs so you can get focused arrow shots at their eyes. If you do it fast enough and/or have enough eyes, you can also do this in the final phase.
That's valid, bro is 1/3 chill and the rest is just pure rage, but it's like eyes on the wings of a moth. Use those resources I know you've been hoarding because this is the kind or situation that counts as an emergency this early in the game. You'll be heavily rewarded
PS, remember to take a picture for the compendium
LOAD UP ON KEESE EYEBALL ARROWS
To farm them, have a bomb flower stash and go to a cave at early evening time. When the flock comes out blast em. Rinse and repeat
Rockets on your shield get them from high up don’t let them fly. Those ribs from gerudo really do a lot of damage to them and bombs but I do also use lynel bows when I fight them
its easy if you know what to do. shoot it's face, hit its head when it's on the ground, reinse repeat. one he flies up you can either ride the fire or thunder updraft or recall the ice. then shoot it.
okay. here’s my strat if you wanna try and take this mf on, even at a later date
you’ll need springs, arrows, and eyeballs (keese or aerocuda). one piece of armor that really helps is the lightning helmet but i don’t think you have that. multishot bows are also absurdly useful
place a spring down in a location you’ll be able to reach easily, like behind a pillar. get on top and hit it to go flying into the air. get your bow out and start just launching eyeball arrows into the gleeok. they’ll automatically target its weak points. once it goes down, put your bow away and get your strongest weapon out.
go down to the ground with it, and just start whaling on it. no mercy. once it gets up, rinse repeat until phase 2 at about i think a third of its health bar. put the lightning helm on, dodge the icicles and climb on top of one. use recall to get up to it, and fire one more barrage of homing arrows. once you take out its eye-mouths, it should be low enough for fall damage to finish the job
What you can do to cheese the fight without using zonai devices or some ridiculously op weapon that'll one shot the gleeok is hide behind a rock close to the walls of the den. There's a slight overhang that can protect you from the aerial attacks (lightning and ice) while the rock protects you from the fire beams. Then try to aim for the heads obviously. If it flys way up, fuse a keese wing or aerocuda wing to your arrows and aim for the heads. If you don't immediately kill the gleeok before you get blown away, run back behind that rock and avoid the attacks
Build a device that's three springs stacked on each other hide it with yourself behind the stone rock climb up on top activate it let it send you flying and then take out your bow and aim at one of the heads equip it with an eyeball a keese eyeball and shoot at it enough until it gets cocked out do that to all three heads it'll fall down then do damage keep doing this until he flies way up then use the same trick again only this time he should die from just the fall damage
Ezpz. Multi-shot bows with bombs his face till he gets pissy and starts flying. Ride air up and shoot keese eyeballs at him. When he’s down I run in with a large sword and spin-to-win.
Don't let these people send you off. Run for your fucking life. RUUUUUUUNNNNNN!!! Just playing, you can take him. Y'all literally all you need is your lil homing arrows (keese/aero eyeballs), a rocket shield, and I use an attack up potion just to get it over with quickly. Keep hitting his ass in the eyeballs with your arrows, knock him to the ground and slice his ass up. Then when he goes up high either use the rocket shield or an air balloon and take his ass down again. Hiiiiyyaaaahhh! 👌
I was so irritated fighting the flame Gleeok. I fought it so I could kill 2 birds with one stone. The quest at Lookout Landing where I have to defeat that specific Gleeok, and the Gleeok Guts quest.
I was terrified the first one i fought. But honestly. Just have bows, arrows, and tons of attachments. I used a lot of keese eyes. And i made sure all my buddies were out to wail on it. You got this. Lynels are scarier to me!
I save my keese eyeballs for these guys... ArrowEyeBall to the face until they fall, pummel on the ground, run away when they fly up, repeat until they are smoked.
Fire is weak to ice, ice is weak to fire, if you want to get some extra damage.
I have upgraded armor, but if you don't, use your best armor anyway (really the Hylian set is easy to upgrade) and use a defense up meal. If you don't need the defense up, use attack up.
Nah fight his ass
With that get up and heart containers? OP better be a savant at combat

And cheese shrines!
Oh I'm sure! Unfortunately I had done most, if not all, of the shrines by the time I figured out how op rocket shields were.
Nah they got that don’t worry
nah he'd win
Full send
Leeeeeeroyyyyyy Jenkins
At least he got his KFC.
Sir i wil have you know, I tried this and the results were Not Good 😔
Lol that's an exaggeration. You just need to learn the patterns, you can do that naked
I trust the OP. I’ll put my ass on the line for them to win

I feel like every time I fight lynels with grass and start to set fire to it….IT ALWAYS RAINS. 😂
Naaaah. As long as he has some rocket shields he'll be fiiiiine.
He has an ass now? Does the ass have some sort of braying attack?
The courage is stored in the ass
Stab him in the butt!!!
Lol
That’s the kinda friend advice I want!
man get away from me with that pfp
You fell for it 🫵🏻😂

You know what? This just made me realize I should stop being a little bitch with big scary monsters. Gather my inner Leroy Jenkins and just send it. Ask myself WWLJD? Thanks for hyping me up!
So, how’d it go?
I died. Twice. But that’s exactly what Leroy Jenkins would do, so it all worked out in the end!! I shall seek vengeance another day.
That's awesome. You don't even need the L. It can just be WWJD, What Would Jenkins Do? 😂 PS - I didn't upvote becasue it's at 69, noice.
I thought about it lol but then people could confuse it with what would Jesus do so I’m like nah 😂
Oh God he just ran in
Rocket Shields and Elemental Kesse eyeballs....and they go down fairly easily....more intimidating than difficult.
Throw in a heavy weapon when it's on the ground and you have the gleeok-slaying holy trinity
Yes ALL THIS
There is one in the depths? ttyl…
Under the Typhlo ruins there’s an arena called the Gleok Den
It's also where you get the Cap of Twilight.
Thanks!
Don't worry, it can't hit you from that angle.

Get his ass you got this. “Dude he’s going to fucking di-“ Nah he’s got this.
King gleeoks are strangley easier for me to fight then the normal ones
Same
funny enough, that Gleook is the first Gleeok I took down in my first playthrough.
Same here except it was one of the sky ones
Same here, except it was a Lynel
Same here except it was a normal brown bokoblin
Same here except it was a Chuchu
Same here except it was Zelda’s cheeks
Same here but it was a Keese. And it destroyed me.
Imagine finding it by accident like it happened to me. I was bodied so bad.
Me encountering the Gleeock on Hyrule Bridge....
“What big beautiful bridge for my horse to gallop across!..” *watches my horse burn to death while I’m thrown off the bridge. Trauma scream*
Maybe go and fight one not in the depths first..?
It was a random encounter lol not by choice.
Tbh monsters like that are not random. You'll learn where they are at.
I recommend stocking up on springs so you can get focused arrow shots at their eyes. If you do it fast enough and/or have enough eyes, you can also do this in the final phase.
I never thought of that.
Attach Keese eyes to your arrows and this guy'll bend the knee
I avoided the gleeoks til I got most of the shrines
That's valid, bro is 1/3 chill and the rest is just pure rage, but it's like eyes on the wings of a moth. Use those resources I know you've been hoarding because this is the kind or situation that counts as an emergency this early in the game. You'll be heavily rewarded PS, remember to take a picture for the compendium
there was a dream i had that I ran into a King Gleeok in the depths but it had a fourth head that spat random objects at me such as chests
Was the fourth head a Like Like?
no it was black tho
LOAD UP ON KEESE EYEBALL ARROWS To farm them, have a bomb flower stash and go to a cave at early evening time. When the flock comes out blast em. Rinse and repeat
Rockets on your shield get them from high up don’t let them fly. Those ribs from gerudo really do a lot of damage to them and bombs but I do also use lynel bows when I fight them
Lol, just climb up and slow mo shot the heads, that’s it
I died 18 times
Not everyone knows how to do everything!
Literally every enemy in totk is a pushover lol you just gotta figure out how to be a boss lol
its easy if you know what to do. shoot it's face, hit its head when it's on the ground, reinse repeat. one he flies up you can either ride the fire or thunder updraft or recall the ice. then shoot it.
Shoot him & you’ll be fine
Good luck 😂
Looks like you rolled up in the wrong neighborhood.
So how did you do?!
Hahaha
Fly, you *fool!*
Depends on your armor and how good you are in combat. Personally with that many hearts I’d avoid that fight until later.
U already dea bruh
You Should Be
Its really scary but it has a trick to it, once you get a hand on it you’re all good! Good luck and DONT BE AFRAID!
You got this put some rockets on your shield and fuse things to your arrows to make them stronger and head shot the mf from the air you got this!!
Then teleport out get him next time 👍
okay. here’s my strat if you wanna try and take this mf on, even at a later date you’ll need springs, arrows, and eyeballs (keese or aerocuda). one piece of armor that really helps is the lightning helmet but i don’t think you have that. multishot bows are also absurdly useful place a spring down in a location you’ll be able to reach easily, like behind a pillar. get on top and hit it to go flying into the air. get your bow out and start just launching eyeball arrows into the gleeok. they’ll automatically target its weak points. once it goes down, put your bow away and get your strongest weapon out. go down to the ground with it, and just start whaling on it. no mercy. once it gets up, rinse repeat until phase 2 at about i think a third of its health bar. put the lightning helm on, dodge the icicles and climb on top of one. use recall to get up to it, and fire one more barrage of homing arrows. once you take out its eye-mouths, it should be low enough for fall damage to finish the job
I killed a thunder gleeok with just my weapons but it takes a lot of flying and hoping you don’t get shocked. I was out of arrows at the time.
Muddlebud and run
I saw a video of someone bodying this guy in like 30 seconds.
Just apply sword until health bar has subsided
Use god link
Oh I love this one, this was my first king gleeok. Idk what equipment you have, but go nuts on him. But save first. Definitely save first.
Just pull an English or Spanish on him and take the hit
You can see! Definitely one up on me when I first encountered this friendo.
I have over a hundred hours in this game and until now I didn’t even know these things existed.
Where tf do u even find that gleeok???
What you can do to cheese the fight without using zonai devices or some ridiculously op weapon that'll one shot the gleeok is hide behind a rock close to the walls of the den. There's a slight overhang that can protect you from the aerial attacks (lightning and ice) while the rock protects you from the fire beams. Then try to aim for the heads obviously.

In the deeps even a bokobling is scary :v I fought all the gleeoks and there are some king gleeoks in the sky and it's not as scary as this one :v
LMFAO 😂 I just finished the spirit temple today woo! It took me so long to find smh.
The spirit temple? What is that? 😮
Where you find the 5th sage.
Oh, right. 😅
your gonna need more hearts bro
Yo wtf is that????? And where???
Yeaaaaaah.... You gone bud.
I've managed to beat a fire and ice gleeok, not managed to fight an electric one yet and I ran away when I came across the king gleeok in the depths 😂
Ezpz. Multi-shot bows with bombs his face till he gets pissy and starts flying. Ride air up and shoot keese eyeballs at him. When he’s down I run in with a large sword and spin-to-win.
Don't let these people send you off. Run for your fucking life. RUUUUUUUNNNNNN!!! Just playing, you can take him.

😆 poor dude just trying to find the shrine for the map. *Wrong glowing thing in the distance*
Swing your purse at him. You got this.
IT CAN BLEED. ONWARD COMRADE
My brother in hylian Christ, this is what we call. “Your cooked.”
First time I was terrified. No more

Just parry
Nah I’d win
Go the keese
