How to Get Sword of the Hero



Go to Dalite Grove, Hyrule Ridge Depths

Sword of the Hero

Jump down the Great Plateau West Chasm and go a bit Northwest specifically at coordinates: -2044, -1129, -0546 to get to Dalite Grove. Make sure to activate the Lightroots on the way.

If you have the Muzasu Lightroot on your map, you can also fast travel to that so you are closer to Dalite Grove. This lightroot is located specifically at -2137, -0874, -0542. Use the Usazum Shrine as an indicator as it is directly above this lightroot.

On Dalite Grove, there will be a lot of trees and some of them are Evermeans so be careful as you go through the grove. Go to the giant tree hollow which will have an Evermean and a chest containing the Sword of the Hero.

Exchange 100 Poes to Bargainer Statues in the Depths

Zelda TotK - Bargainer Statue 6 Overworld

The Sword of the Hero will be available at any Bargainer Statues in the Depths for 100 Poes once you've received the weapon after getting the sword from Dalite Grove or by scanning the amiibo.

You need to have interacted with at least one Bargainer Statue in the Depths for it to be available. The Bargainer Statue is unavailable for exchange at the Lookout Landing's statue.

Having the option to buy another copy of this weapon is extremely helpful especially since weapons in Tears of the Kingdom have weapon durability and can break.
