Uses

Allows Link to gain significant height and speed

A Stasis Launch is a technique used in Breath of the Wild. Performing this technique can allow Link to gain significant height and/or speed and maintain that speed while using the Paraglider, allowing him to glide a great distance very quickly.

How-To Perform

  • Stasis the object (usually a cut tree or large boulder) and hit it repeatedly to build up momentum.
  • Use a two-handed weapon spin attack and face away from the object to get multiple hits in. After building up plenty of momentum, you may need to shoot the object with an arrow or use a bomb blast to aim it the direction you would like it to launch.
  • Climb on top of the object and position Link near the front of the object.
  • Jump just before the Stasis timer wears off. The timing depends on the object, position, etc.
  • After getting launched, pull out the Paraglider.

Uses

  • Getting to high places without using a lot of stamina or Revali's Gale.
  • Traveling great distances quickly.
  • In speedruns, Stasis Launches are not allowed in Bug-Limit categories.
