If you’ve stumbled upon a rusty sword or shield while adventuring and aren’t sure what to do with it, let’s dive into the straightforward steps to fix up those rusty weapons in ‘Tears of the Kingdom’.

Reviving Your Rusty Gear: A Simple Guide

The secret to fixing rusty weapons in ‘Tears of the Kingdom’ lies in finding one of the many Octoroks scattered across Hyrule. These aren’t just any creatures; they have a unique ability to clean up and restore your rusty equipment to its former glory.

First off, you need to locate an Octorok, which are often found near bodies of water. Once you’ve spotted one, simply equip your rusty weapon and wait for the Octorok to ‘inhale’ it. Be ready, as you’ll need to dodge their attack right after. If done correctly, the Octorok will spit out a completely restored, often even upgraded version of your weapon!
