How to clear Sinatanika Shrine (Combat Training: Sneakstrike) in TOTK (Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

Metal Gear Solid players would be good at this shrine.

Aside from being mini tutorials, some of the shrines in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are great opportunities to brush up on skills. A perfect example is Sinatanika Shrine, which has players practice the Sneakstrike. When it comes to trying to take on camps of higher-level enemies, the Sneakstrike is one of the best tools to use. Here's how you can use it.

Sinatanika Shrine is found in the Akkala region in Tears of the Kingdom. It lies just east of the Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower and west of the chasm that Dinraal flies out of. The specific coordinates for this shrine are 3842, 2300, 0048.

Solution for Sinatanika Shrine in TOTK (Zelda Tears of the Kingdom)

This shrine basically has two phases: one where Link needs to fight a stationary construct, and another where he fights a patrolling construct. None of Link's other attacks work here, so he needs to land a Sneakstrike on both enemies.

To beat the stationary construct, players should start off by crouching below the window.

Then, pick a side (left or right) and hide behind that corner.

When the construct isn't looking in Link's direction, crouch walk to the back corner. From there, Link should have a direct path to walk and Sneakstrike without being noticed.

As for the patrolling construct, players will have to be a bit more patient here. Camp a corner again, but this time, wait for the patrolling construct to walk by.

It patrols in a square path going counterclockwise. When the construct has their back toward Link, walk up to them and strike.

For an easy way to beat this shrine, I personally just used the Sheikah Armor. This set of armor boosts Link's stealth, so I could just walk up to enemies instead of crouching and still get my Sneakstrikes off.
