Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom: Slumber Dojo - All Challenges And Rewards

Would it really be a video game if there wasn't a combat challenge? Echoes of Wisdom transforms the battle arena format and turns it into a dream — literally.

The Slumber Dojo is where you'll test your sleeping, dreaming, and battle skills, utilising everything you've learned throughout Echoes of Wisdom. And the rewards are absolutely worth it, including two Heart Pieces, a lovely callback Outfit, and an item for Dampé's Automatons.

In this guide, we've listed every single reward you can get from the Slumber Dojo and the types of challenges you'll face.

Where to find the Slumber Dojo

The Slumber Dojo can be found in Kakariko Village on the west side of the ground level — no need to go up to the windmills. We've circled the location in the map above in red.

Inside, you'll speak to the dojo master, who wants you to become a Slumber Master. No, you're not becoming an expert in sleep — simply, you'll be dreaming of battles and you must win those dream battles.

All Slumber Dojo Challenges & Rewards

Every single challenge in the Slumber Dojo will reward Zelda with some very useful items for Smoothie making, rupees, and even Outfits. There are two ways you can beat a challenge — Clear or Fast Clear.

A Clear means you've completed the challenge under the time limit, while a Fast Clear means you've completed the challenge in an extra fast time. A Clear will be marked with a tick, while a Fast Clear will be marked with a face.

We've listed all of the rewards for both kinds of clear below. These stages unlock over the course of the game, depending on what region and what bosses you've defeated. The final challenge will unlock after you've beaten all 14 other challenges.

Slumber Dojo Milestone Rewards

For every few Slumber Dojo challenges you clear for the first time, you'll be given an extra reward. Below, we've listed all six additional rewards you get for clearing the Slumber Dojo.

Types of Slumber Dojo Challenge

Most Slumber Dojo Challenges allow you to use all of your Echoes and skills, but there are a few variants that either change up the situation or the enemy types.

Blank-Slate Battle

Blank-Slate Battles are battles where you're stripped of everything — all of your equipment, accessories, items, and Echoes. You must use the Echoes and Enemies in the challenge provided.

As such, these can take a lot of practice, particularly Blank-Slate Battle: Ice and Blank-Slate Battle: Final. In particular, don't forget about Bind — it's extremely useful for pulling things towards you or blocking enemy view.

To start with, you'll want to grab an Echo of an object such as a Rock or Wooden Box, and then work from there. Wooden Boxes can block enemy views, and Rocks can be thrown at weak enemies to kill.

Revenge

The Revenge challenges usually throw a bunch of the same enemy type at you, along with one or two other curveballs like a Darknut or something stronger.

Like most other challenges, though, you have all of your echoes, so these are pretty easy.

Titan's Gathering

Titan's Gathering are essentially boss rushes — in these, you'll find a handful of bosses in a row, back to back. You will have access to all of your Echoes and equipment for these, so just throw everything you have at them.

Titan's Gathering focuses on the first three bosses of the game from Suthorn Ruins, Gerudo Sanctum, and Jabul Ruins. The Titans Gather Again looks at the last three bosses from Eldin Temple, Lanayru Temple, and Faron Temple. And The Titans' Final Gathering features all six bosses from the first two stages, plus the final boss of Hyrule Castle.
