How to Beat Glinthawks

Glinthawks Boss Guide:

Once the cutscene ends, you'll be approached by the 3 Glinthawks. They are not incredibly though. Be mindful of their ice attacks and remember to use Fire Arrows for a lot of elemental damage. Try to target their Freeze Sacs, destroying this component will bring the Glinthawk down to the floor, leaving it open for a melee critical hit.

After they are down, a second flock of three Glinthawks will arrive. Repeat the same process as before and after the Glinthawks fall, you'll be treated to another cutscene.

 

Tips

  • Try to focus on one Glinthawk at a time.
  • If you are having trouble, run in the opposite direction and try to single out one of the Glinthawks and start focusing.
