How To Get The Best Horse

You Can Create The Best Horse Yourself

In Tears of the Kingdom, you can enhance your Horse's stat, so you can make the upgrade and create the best Horse yourself with the exception of some of them.

It Is A Little Easier If The Initial Stats Are High

If the Horse's initial stats are high, the upgrade costs will be less. It is also possible to reroll and get a high-stats horse of your prefered color.

Special/Unique Horses Cannot Be Upgraded

Special or unique Horses, such as Epona and the Giant White Stallion, cannot be enhanced because they seek to remain as they are. However, the Golden Horse can be upgraded as an exception.

How To Upgrade Your Horse

Free Malanya

To strengthen your Horse, Malanya must be unlocked first. Malanya can be found in a large plant north of the East Akkala Stable, northwest of Akkala. Malanya will ask for an Endura Carrot, so it will be easier if you prepare one in advance.
