How To Get President Hudson Shield In Tears of the Kingdom (TOTK)

No matter if you’re jumping into the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom as a new player, or someone that has put countless hours into Breath of the Wild before it, there is something so mesmerizing about Hudson. You may have had your first experience with Addison, who is scattered across the lands of Hyrule, holding signs up for his boss to praise his glory. Well, now you can also sport Hudson wherever you go with the President Hudson Shield, which can only be obtained in a very special way. Let's become the man himself and wear his visage wherever we may go!

Once you have landed safely inside, you’ll just need to keep pushing forward. This cardboard cutout of President Hudson isn't going to wait forever.

Once you have stepped onto the rock (3938, 1580m, 0120), you’ll want to open your power menu and select Ascend. This will put you right into the storage shed, letting you finally unblock the door and claim the greatest prize of all. The Master Sword can't even compare to the pure power of President Hudson.
