You can climb up to a waterfall from the Shoda Sah Shrine, and Farosh will appear at its end. By performing the above method, you can repeatedly make it appear. Depending on where you hit it with your bow, you can obtain different materials, and the Shard of Farosh's Horn obtained from its horns can be sold for 300 Rupees. Shoot arrows at Farosh's horns when it appears to defeat it and earn a lot of Rupees quickly.

Recommended Bow And Arrows

When aiming for Farosh's horn with a bow and arrow, distance is very important. Prepare a long-range bow and arrow like the ones mentioned above, as they make it easier to aim at the horn.

Thunderous orbs are whirling around Farosh, and coming into contact with them inflicts damage. If you possess an ample amount of Hearts, it might not pose a significant threat. Nevertheless, you can still ensure that you don't get damaged by equipping yourself with anti shock rubber gears.

Ores Are Relatively Expensive And Recommended

Ores are recommended for earning Rupees in the early stages as they can be sold at a relatively high price. Although they are needed later for things like armor upgrades, they can be obtained when necessary, so if you're short on Rupees in the early stages, it's best to sell them. Among the ores, Luminous Stones are easy to gather and particularly recommended.

Main Quests Guides List

Also, although it may be difficult in the early stages, it's possible to defeat Stone Talus and collect ores after making some progress. However, if your equipment is in order, remember that hunting Farosh can be an efficient means of acquiring resources.

Selling Cooked Dishes And Materials Is Also An Option

If you have a large quantity of Monster Parts, food, and other items obtained along the way, you can also sell them. It's best not to sell hard-to-find materials, but if you have materials that you have unknowingly accumulated a lot of, it's okay to sell them. When it comes to food, you can earn more by cooking it.

Play Mini Games

Earn Rupees by clearing mini-games that can be played in various locations. You may encounter some mini-games that don't require any preparation, so it's worth giving them a try when you find them.

Snowball Bowling Is Especially Recommended!
