Topaz Locations and Sources

Drops from the Talus Monsters

Talus Name	Talus Hidden	Talus Revealed
Stone Talus
Frost Talus
Igneo Talus

The most efficient way, albeit a time-consuming one, to farm for Opal is to defeat the Frost Talus and Igneo Talus. Not only do they drop Opal when defeated, but hitting their weak spot will also drop them occasionally. The other Talus Monsters, which are Stone Talus, Stone Talus (Luminous), and Stone Talus (Rare) also drop Opal but not as much as the Frost Talus and Igneo Talus. Their locations are described in the table below.

Drops from Stone Pebblits and Ore Deposits

Stone Pebblits are the baby version of Stone Talus. They are usually found in groups so if you ever encounter one alone, chances are you'll find the others lying around the same area.

Ore Deposits are found all over Hyrule but are commonly found in the mines in the Eldin Region. Destroy them with ideally a Hammer-type weapon and you may get Opal.

Their locations are in the table below.
