BotW | Arrow Farming - Best Way To Get Arrows & Locations | Zelda Breath Of The Wild

Arrow farming guide for Zelda Breath of the Wild (BotW). Learn how to farm normal arrows fast and how to collect elemental arrows efficiently including where to buy them.

How To Get Normal Arrow

Under The Great Plateau Tower In The Early Stage

Steps

• 1. Get found by the Bokoblins with bows.
• 2. Move away from the enemy until they cannot reach you.
• 3. Collect the arrows stuck in the ground.
• 4. Save and load when the arrows no longer stick to the ground.
• 5. Return to Step 3.

Go southwest of the Great Plateau Tower, move away from the two red Bokoblins with Bows until you are out of arrow's reach. They will continue to shoot arrows at you, so you just need to collect the arrows stuck in the ground.

Arrows Are Also Falling Around Bokoblin

These two red Bokoblins may have been practicing shooting, and there are many arrows lying around the area, you could pick them up while you are at it.

Collect At The Hill North Of Illumeni Plateau

Near Tabantha Bridge Stable, there are 6 Horse-Riding Bokoblin on the hill southwest of the Shae Loya Shrine. Highly recommended as it is close to the shrine and easy to collect.

Collect From Horse-Riding Bokoblin In Kasaime Plain

There are several horse-riding Bokoblins with bows in the area between the Kasime Plain and the Tehota Marsh, east of the Ishto Soh Shrine. Since they are not very accurate in shooting, collect the arrows that they missed while using Link as a practice target.

Opening Treasure Chest On Saihateno Island Are Also Efficient

Steps

• 1.Pull up the treasure chest.
• 2.Get the items inside, then save.
• 3.Load and return to Step 1.

A treasure chest containing Arrow x 10 is sunk in a small rocky area east of the Korgu Chideh Shrine on the Eventide Island. You can save and load to respawn the treasure chest and collect as much as you like.

Need To Complete The Trial

The first time you visit the Eventide Island, you will be forced to start the Stranded on Eventide, so you have to complete the Trial first.

How To Get Fire Arrows

Dropped By Lizalfos At The Abandoned North Mine

Fire Arrows drop when you defeat the Lizalfos with bows at the lookout and hideout of the Abandoned North Mine in Goron City. You can get about 20 Fire Arrows at once. Visit there whenever the Red Moon comes.

Easier With Ice Weapons

Fire-Breath Lizalfos are vulnerable to ice, so a Frostblade or similar weapon can defeat them with a single blow.

How To Get Ice Arrows

Dropped By The Enemy At The Northernmost Tip of Mt. Hebra

A Bokoblin and a Moblin in the hideout north of Mt. Hebra and on the north peak of Hebra will drop Ice Arrow x 5. It is recommended to head there from the Shada Naw Shrine.

Convenient To Buy In Stores

There are few places where you can get Ice Arrow in large quantities, so it is better to buy them at Zora's Domain, which will cost you more money but will ensure that you can get them quickly.

How To Get Shock Arrows

Mostly Dropped By Lynel

Many Lynel, including the Lynel in the Ploymus Mountain, are equipped with Shock Arrows. Therefore, if you hunt Lynel in each area, you will naturally have plenty of Shock Arrows.

▲ The Lynel in the Ploymus Mountain, east of Zora's Domain, drops 10 Shock Arrows. It's an easy place to fight as it doesn't turn into silver even near the end of the game.

Better To Buy In Stores

Same as the Ice Arrows, there are few places where you can get a large quantity of them, so it is better to buy them in Gerudo Town or other places, which will cost you more money but will ensure that you can get them quickly.

How To Get Bomb Arrows

Collect From Bocoblins On The Watchtower North Of Skull Lake

Steps

• 1.Light a bonfire repeatedly and wait for rain.
• 2.When it rains, whistle at the position where arrows can't reach.
• 3.Collect the unexploded Bomb Arrows.
• 4.Save and load when you can no longer collect.
• 5.Repeat until you collect enough.

There are several Bokoblins on the watchtower north of Skull Lake, where the Zuna Kai Shrine is located. Three of them are equipped with Bomb Arrows, so it is recommended to collect here.

How To Get Ancient Arrows

Better To Buy At Akkala Ancient Tech Lab

Since there is no place to get them respawned in the Red Moon, it's best to get them at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab. Defeat all the Guardians in the Hyrule Castle and exchange the materials you earn for the Ancient Arrows.

The Arrows Available In Stores

Where To Buy Arrows

No More Arrows Available If You Own More Than 100

Arrows will disappear from stores if you own arrows around 60 to 120. No matter how many days pass, they will no longer be available in stores unless your arrows are reduced.
