Thunderblight Ganon
Thunderblight Ganon is the boss of Divine Beast Vah Naboris, and it is the fastest of the four blights. It dashes in a zigzag and hits with a short sword and shield. Rubber armor, or a shock-resistant meal, keeps the lightning from disarming you. Phase two is a Magnesis puzzle with the pillars it plants.
The dash is a flurry rush
The zigzag ends in a thrust. Backflip if the cut is horizontal, side hop if it is a stab. Most of the damage in this phase is that hop, done late rather than early. A perfect guard on the shield rush also breaks its guard and lets you hit the eye. Panic-swinging while it blinks around the room will not land.
Take off metal weapons and a metal shield before the fight if you have no shock resistance. A wooden or ancient weapon stays in your hand when the spark hits. The rubber set from the Faron side quests is the dedicated answer. If you don't have it, the meal is enough for this one room.
Pillars and the lightning strike
In the second phase it drops metal pillars around the floor and starts to call lightning down on you. Grab a pillar with Magnesis and move it next to the blight. The bolt prefers the metal. If the pillar is beside it, the strike stuns Thunderblight instead of you. Then run in and hit it until it stands up.
Do not hold the pillar over your own head. That is how the bolt finds you. Drop it beside the boss and let go before the flash. Repeat the dash punishment and the pillar trick. Urbosa's Fury comes from winning here, so you cannot use her lightning to skip her own fight. An ancient arrow can still delete the blight if the timing never clicks.
