The Sinatanika Shrine in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom can be tricky for those who are not patient. Also referred to as Combat Training: Sneakstrike, this tutorial shrine shows you how to do a powerful surprise attack on enemies. The requirements here are not complicated; it just can be difficult to find the right level of stealth to get close to the enemy before it spots you. Here is how to complete the Sinatanika Shrine in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
How to Complete Combat Training: Sneakstrike
The Sinatanika Shrine in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is located in Akkala Highlands, just to the west of East Akkala Plains Chasm. When you enter, you will see a short-walled arena with a Zonai enemy in the middle. Your goal is to sneak up behind them without them being alerted to your presence.
Before trying to hit the Zonai, we recommend grabbing one of the swords against the wall to save a couple of hits on your precious melee inventory. You can do this with any melee weapon, but you might as well use what they give you. If the enemy notices you at any point, you will be teleported back to the beginning and have to start over.

To start, the enemy will be stationary and only surveying the area directly in front of them. Move around the side of the walls. When you get to the inner area, press the left stick to crouch and walk towards the back of the Zonai. Donโt press the left stick too far forward, or you will alert it as you get close. Go about halfway on the stick as you approach, and it shouldnโt hear you. You can also eat something to increase your stealth to help in this area if you have problems. Press Y when you get the prompt for Sneakstrike.
After you get the hit off, you will be teleported back to the front, and now the Zonai will patrol its area. It moves counterclockwise, so we recommend approaching from the right side. Do the same halfway crouch approach as before, and you should get the hit easily.
Upon completion, the door to the Light of Blessing will open up. Open up the chest in here to get a Sneaky Elixir, which will increase your stealth for over nine minutes. With this, you donโt have to worry about making too much noise when sneaking around. That is all you need to know about how to complete the Sinatanika Shrine โ Combat Training: Sneakstrike in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
