How to complete the Tornado Ghost quest in Zelda Echoes of Wisdom

Use the handy Sea Urchin Echo

As if the ghastly ReDeads weren’t horrifying enough, it seems like there are more horrors lurking in the sands near Gerudo Town. A Gerudo in town claims she saw a ghost shrouded by a tornado and wants to see it again. Here’s how to complete the Tornado Ghost quest in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.

The Gerudo wants to see the ghost she believes she saw in the desert. To find the ghost, head directly east of Gerudo Town to reach the Oasis.

Once there, go north of the purple tent and the ghost will appear. The ghosts only appear in these areas where the sandstorm kicks up.

The ghosts the Gerudo was referring to are actually monsters called Tornadoes. If they run into you, they will send you flying into the air. Tornadoes can also knock back a majority of your monster Echoes, so melee attacks won’t be effective. While these attacks are disorienting, Tornadoes can’t actually do damage to you or your Echoes.

One of the easiest ways to deal with Tornadoes is with the Sea Urchin Echo. The Sea Urchins can’t be pushed around and will deal damage to any Tornado that charges into them.

Once you’ve bested a Tornado, collect the Echo and head back to Gerudo Town. Summon a Tornado in front of the curious Gerudo and she’ll reward you with ten bottles of Fresh Milk.
