Tips for Locating Dragon's Tears | |
---|---|
1 | See Full-Size Image |
Look for Full Tears All Geoglyphs have tear shapes included in their designs, with multiple tears being hollow, and only one being full. The Dragon's Tear is always found within the Full Tear. |
|
2 | Increase Your Stamina or Bring Stamina Food Some Geoglyphs are located on the faces of mountains, or require you to glide long distances in order to reach them. Make sure you're prepared to make the trek towards each Dragon's Tear by having a lot of stamina, or by having stamina replenishing items handy. |
The Impa and the Geoglyphs quest can be started by speaking to Impa in New Serenne Stable, northwest of Lookout Landing. Impa can be found standing above a small platform just across the road from the New Serenne Stable.
The Dragon's Tears Main Quest will start immediately once you complete the Impa and the Geoglyphs quest.
Players may also speak to Cado to begin the Impa and the Geoglyphs quest. Cado can be located by following the road east of Tabantha Bridge Stable until you hit a fork in the road, and then going down into the ravine where you'll find him on the lookout.
The exact coordinates for this quest on the map are -1615, 0558, 0032.
There doesn't seem to be any reward for this quest... *sad Korok noises* |
The Dragon's Tear Walkthrough |

Travel north of Hyrule Ridge after talking to Impa and go to the Forgotten Temple. Make sure to land on the entrance above the ground or it will be hard to climb up.
Upon reaching the entrance talk to Cado and head down inside the temple. Connect the wooden planks using your Ultrahand to create a bridge and get to the other side.
There will be a few Bokoblins camping in the area. You can take them out first so you can make the bridge easier and faster.
Go to the furthest side of the room using the platform on the right side to reach the next room. You can find the entrance to the next room up above the wall.
You can climb up using your Ascend to save up Stamina and get to the next room faster.
You'll see Impa right in front of the Mayausiy Shrine in the temple. You can talk to her and continue exploring the area.
Proceed to the next room with the fallen statue. You can find the entrance to the following room near it's foot.
You'll get to a room with a flower-like sculpture in the middle. You can ignore that and head to the final room.
Once you reached the last room, jump down on the Stone Map to investigate it. You can now start collecting all the Dragon's Tear after this. You can choose to collect all the memories from the Dragon's Tears first or resume your search for the Fifth Sage right away.
Finding all the Dragon's Tears is optional for the story's completion but is recommended as the entire quest is lore-rich.

Once you complete the final tear, 12 Silent Princess flowers will grow around the Tear in Rist Peninsula. This area has the most Silent Princesses in the game, and getting here is simple as it is within vicinity of the Gemimik Shrine which you can just fast travel to if you have it unlocked.
Finishing this quest will make gathering upgrade materials for armor pieces like the Champion's Tunic and the Stealth Set a lot easier since they require a lot of Silent Princesses.
After seeing all Dragon's Tears and Geoglyphs, you will find out where the Master Sword is. Always be on the lookout for the Light Dragon!
