How to Farm Arrows

Equip a Wooden Shield and block an enemy's arrow to farm them in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (TotK). Read on to learn more ways to farm Arrows, where to find Arrows, and more!

How to Farm Arrows

Often Found in Large Boxes

As you progress through the game, you will find many arrows by breaking large boxes, and sometimes barrels. Use a two-handed weapon or a Stone Axe to quickly break them open when you encounter them to constantly have a supply of arrows.

Pick Up Arrows from Enemies

A gameplay mechanic in Tears of the Kingdom prevents you from getting hit by arrows if the bow-wielding enemy is outside your line of sight. You can use this to go near a bow-wielding enemy, point the camera on the ground, and pick up the arrows on the ground.

Use a Wooden Shield to Pick Up Arrows

You can use a Wooden Shield to farm arrows from enemies. Find a bow-wielding enemy and hold the ZL Button to target them and raise your shield.

Wait for the enemy to fire the arrow and block it with the shield. Release the ZL button to place the arrows stuck on the shield in your inventory.

Obtain from Amiibos

If you happen to have any amiibo lying around, they can sometimes be used to farm arrows. Even non Zelda-themed amiibo can drop random materials, as well as arrows and rupees, so scan them daily to get the free rewards!

Buy from Merchants

You can also purchase arrows from Beedle at the Stables or the shop at Lookout Landing. Be sure to buy these once you see them available since these are frequently on sale!
