The difficulty of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom compared to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has increased considerably, mainly due to the fact that the enemies are smarter when attacking, are more numerous and also hit harder. This could mean that in one fell swoop they could take away most of your hearts.
However, there is a method to Improve the defense of your team’s pieces so that Link becomes more resistant to any impact, as we will explain in the following guide.
How to improve the defense of equipment pieces
On the different pieces of equipment that you will find during the adventure, whether they are those given to you for completing missions, those found in hidden chests or those purchased directly from shops, you will see a number that can be seen in the inventory.
This figure corresponds to the defense provided by the article in question.so the higher it is, the less life the enemies will take from you. And you can be sure that towards the end of the game it becomes something very necessary to take into account.
That said, in order to improve the team’s defense you will have to locate the Great Fairy Fountains. In total there are four of them that are located in these places:
- In western Necluda, south of Twin Peaks Post Office
- In the Eldin Valley, northwest of the Forest Post
- In Hyrule Plain, east of the Plain Post
- In the Great Tabanta Steppe, northeast of the Steppe Post
In order for the Fairies to emerge from the flower buds in which they remain hidden, you must complete a series of prior missions. Each of these will be given to you at the post closest to each Great Fairy Fountain and consists of helping a group of musicians reach the places where the Fairies remain hidden, in order for them to play a melody that encourages them to return to their normal state.
Once you have completed this objective, the Fairies will upgrade your pieces of equipment. in exchange for a certain amount of rupees and itemsdepending on which one you want to make more durable. Also, the more Fairies you restore, the better your items will be, so it’s best to unlock all four as soon as possible.
