'Breath of the Wild' Gemstones Guide: Where to Look and How to Find Them

Gamers who are deep in the world of Zelda in Nintendo's newest action-adventure video game "Breath of Wild" must not take for granted the gemstones they find in their many adventures.

According to Nintendo Life, surviving what is being tagged as the most difficult installment in the "Legend of Zelda" series does not only depend on the weapons the protagonist use to take down numerous enemies. Other articles will come handy to a player when worse comes to worst. For example, hoarding on restorative items will help one tide over when hearts are running low. Food and resources must be prioritized, just like armaments and shields.

Gemstones that are found scattered around in the Hyrule land will also be of huge help in the future. Some of these valuable rocks may be used to forge a powerful armor or weapon. They may also be sold for a good price. The money a player procures may be used in building his very own town.

According to RPG Site, gemstones are usually found in the lower areas of Hyrule Castle and Death Mountain. A black sparkling rock protruding from a hillside usually contains a valuable rock. For those who have hearts to spare, they may consider fighting the Stone Talus bosses. Once killed, players may collect the gemstones the adversaries have dropped.

In starting one's Tarrey Town, rupees are needed. An old house in the southwestern side of Hateno Village may cost 3000 rupees. Players can expect that Bolson Construction, Hyrule's premier construction company, will demand for a huge amount of money. To get rupees and other material needed in the construction, the fastest way is to sell gemstones. The other way to earn money may be a little harder to do. One may cook meals and sell them for profit. If a player already has a huge collection of the valuable items in the first place, paying the exorbitant price will not be a problem.
