Tired of building flamethrower scooters or over-armed SUVs with Zelda Tears of the Kingdom builds? Then it’s time to go back to basics and capture a horse to explore Hyrule at a more leisurely pace. In this guide, We will see everything there is to know about horses, without going into detail about certain elements that could spoil you.
The horse, the horse is great
You might think that Emprise-based vehicle constructions would completely crush any point in having a 4-legged mount, but that’s not the case. Horses, when at a good level, allow you to cover a lot of ground in no time. Unlike your crafted Soneau artifacts, your faithful horse will not disappear as soon as you leave for a shrine or other. It is even noted on the map when you have successfully tamed it. To find good specimens quite easily, we recommend the Hyrule Field in the southwest of the map. In these large green expanses, many horses gallop in groups.
