Uncover the Power of the Sages in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Quick Links

Players of Tears of the Kingdom will come across Sage's Wills, a unique upgrade material that Link can use to strengthen the bond with the Sages he recruits while exploring the Sky Islands above Hyrule. With this guide, players can collect all 20 Sage's Wills and upgrade each Sage that assists Link in his quest. However, finding every Sage's Will requires the player to navigate the skies above Hyrule, facing terrifying beasts along the way. To help players, this Sage's Will locations guide has been updated with additional tips and tricks for upgrading all Tears of the Kingdom Sages before completing the game.

Sage's Will 1: Eldin Sky Archipelago

Sage's Will 2: South Eldin Sky Archipelago

Throughout Hyrule's Sky Islands, Tears of the Kingdom players can discover a total of 20 Sage's Wills. While most are easily accessible, Sage's Will 8 is perched high on a platform above Eventide Island. On the other hand, Sage's Wills 19 and 20 are located on the Thunderhead Isles, which are often battered by storms. It is advisable to save these for last.

Sage's Will 3: Sokkala Sky Archipelago

The first TotK Sage's Will can be found in the Eldin Sky Archipelago, starting at the top of the map of Hyrule. To reach it, Link can visit the low island from multiple nearby locations such as Typhlo Ruins in the Eldin Mountains or Ulri Mountains in the Akkala Highlands through Skyview Towers. Moreover, he can also use various shrines on the surrounding archipelagos, including Simosiwak Shrine and Mayam Shrine in North Hyrule and Kadaunar Shrine in South Eldin.

The chest is found in a small building in the center of the island.

Sage's Will 1 Chest Coordinates: 1765, 2267, 0827

Sage's Will 4: Wellspring Island - Flux Construct II

Players can use the Eldin Canyon Skyview Tower to launch themselves into the air and land on the southernmost island in the chain. To locate the chest, Link must head towards the northern edge of the island and drop down to the second level. The area behind the gate covered in vines contains the chest, and players will need to clear the vines to gain access. One section of the gate is not barred, making it easier to find.

Sage's Will 5 & 6: Lanayru Sky Archipelago - Flux Construct II

cannot be used as they do not exist in the original fragment.

Rewritten fragment: The chest is located inside the enormous floating orb situated in Sokkala Sky Islands. Accessible via the Water Temple or Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower, Link can reach the area even if he hasn't completed the nearby shrine.

To access the chest within the orb, players have two options - either climb the sides or glide/fly in. The chest itself is situated on a lower level which is only accessible when the orb's opening is positioned correctly for Link to enter. To achieve this, players will need to use Ultrahand to align the opening with the equator or the ground that Link is standing on. Once the opening is in place, Link can drop down to the lower level where the chest awaits in the center of the chamber.

Sage's Will 3 Chest Coordinates: 3811, 1582, 1144

Sage's Will 7: North Necluda Sky Archipelago

Players can easily reach the fourth Sage's Will in TotK by taking advantage of Link's journey through the "Sidon of the Zora" main quest on his way to the Water Temple. This is the perfect opportunity to unlock fast-travel points at two locations, namely the Water Temple and Igoshon Shrine.

Once you've located the Flux Construct II miniboss on the shoulder, you'll find the Sage's Will 4 Chest. The battle arena can be found beneath the water temple and players can easily locate the exact spot on the map where Link should be positioned to locate the construct. Upon defeating the enemy, players can retrieve the Sage's Will.

Sage's Will 8: Over Eventide Island - King Gleeok

Sage's Will 5: Near Jirutagumac Shrine

Unfortunately, I am an AI language model and cannot see the competitor article or its fragments. Can you please provide me with the fragment 26 that needs to be rewritten?

Inside the orb, Link will come across a wheel that is being rotated by a fan, causing the outer shell to rotate constantly. Using Ultrahand, Link can manipulate the turn-wheel and then use the right stick to release the fan. Once the fan is released, players must align the large opening of the wheel with the ground to reach the lower chamber. In the lower chamber, Link will discover a chest situated in the center of the room.

Sage's Will 5 Chest Coordinates:

Sage's Will 6: Floating Construct Arena

South of the orb where Link discovers Sage's Will 5 lies TotK Sage's Will 6, located on a separate Flux Construct. To reach it, Link can utilize the Upland Zorana Skyview Tower (2866, 0581, 0379) once again. The battle for the Flux Construct II will ensue, with the chest initially positioned on the enemy's shoulder. The coordinates for the chest are 2987, -0235, 0894.

Sage's Will 9: South Necluda Sky Archipelago - Flux Construct III

To reach the eastern edge of the North Necluda Archipelago, where a small circular platform awaits, Link needs to navigate through a chain of islands. In case the player doesn't have access to the Josiu shrine for fast travel, using the Great Sky Island as a starting point for a gliding or flying journey is recommended.

Link will come across a useful device in the middle section of the archipelago that can propel him into the air. This will lead him straight to the small island he needs to reach, which is easily identifiable at night due to its luminous ore covering. The chest containing Sage's Will 7 is situated on the back side of the island.

Sage's Will 10: Faron Sky Archipelago - Flux Construct III

Reaching the island can prove to be quite challenging, with the closest shrine being the Kumamayn Shrine located in the Necluda Sky Archipelago. In the event that Link has not yet unlocked the shrine on these islands, he can make use of the Rabella Wetlands Skyview Tower (2419, -2762, 0222) to get there. To successfully make the journey, it is recommended to stock up on stamina-replenishing meals and elixirs, construct a flying machine and venture out as far as possible before gliding the remaining distance if necessary. Possessing the Vow of Tulin, which is granted upon completing the "Tulin of Rito Village" mission, can greatly aid in this undertaking.

In order to reach the island, Link must confront the formidable King Gleeok, a three-headed dragon that uses three different elements instead of the usual one. To defeat the King Gleeok, Link will need a powerful bow, such as the multi-shot bows obtained from a Lynel. The key to this battle is to aim for the dragon's eyes, which are still its primary weak point. Using a bow that fires multiple arrows at once can significantly increase Link's chances of victory. If Link does not possess a bow of this nature, it is recommended that he wait until he does before attempting to claim the Sage's Will. However, defeating King Gleeok is a necessary step to obtain the coveted treasure, as the chest's opening is tied to the monster's death.

It is worth completing the "East Necluda Sky Crystal" mission to unlock the Kumamayn Shrine fast-travel point on the Necluda Sky Archipelago.

Sage's Will 8 Chest Coordinates: 4652, -3828, 1065

Sage's Will 11: South Hyrule Sky Archipelago

Link can easily reach the next Sage's Will by returning to the base platform he used to access Eventide Island. This time, the location is on a closer island in the South Necluda Sky Archipelago. With the help of the launching mechanism located on the central island, Link can smoothly glide to the desired spot,

After defeating the slightly tougher Flux Construct III, Link can claim his reward by opening the chest. Inside, players will find the coveted Sage's Will 9. The coordinates for the chest are 2559, -3601, 0894.

Sage's Will 12: East Gerudo Sky Archipelago

Link can access this island by heading towards the western edge of the Great Sky Island and reaching the In-isa Shrine. The island is situated right above Lake Hylia, making it easily accessible. Upon arrival, Link will encounter Flux Construct III, which he must defeat in order to acquire TotK Sage's Will 10. The chest containing the Sage's Will 10 can be found at coordinates -0326, -2591, 0894.

Sage's Will 13: Western Edge Battle Platform - King Gleeok

Upon reaching the island depicted in the image, Link can choose to glide from either the western edge of the Great Sky Island or the East Gerudo Sky Archipelago. Upon arrival, two small pools will be visible, with a tricky puzzle waiting to be solved in the lower one.

Link must figure out how to keep the stone gate open long enough to reach the chest at the bottom of the pool. If he goes to the upper pool, he'll find a log leaning against the gate. Link must bring the log down to the lower pool, stand it up behind the gate, and use Ultrahand to raise the gate as high as possible before securing it to the log. This will give Link enough time to open the chest without the gate closing on him.

Sage's Will 14: West Hyrule Sky Archipelago - Flux Construct III

Link has two options for getting to this island. The first is to use the launch mechanism on the central island, which can be accessed through the Rakashog Shrine fast-travel marker. Alternatively, if Link has not completed that quest, he can glide to the island from the Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower (-2438, -2182, 0307).

Link will come across three levels as he nears the island. The chest containing the treasure is situated in a chamber on the lowest level, but it is secured with a mechanism that requires a beam of sunlight to unlock it. On the second level, Link will come across a number of mirrors and other useful items that will help him accomplish this task. While there may be several approaches to this challenge, this guide recommends using a single mirror to acquire Sage's Will 12.

In order to successfully complete this task, it is imperative that the deed is done during the day. In the event that it is nighttime, players must build a fire by striking flint and a bundle of wood, and wait until morning. Once daylight hits, players can utilize Ultrahand to reflect the sun's rays onto the mirror. It is recommended to first check the height of the lock located above the door. By reflecting the light from the mirror onto the door, it will unlock and grant access to the chest that holds Sage's Will 12.

Sage's Will 12 Chest Coordinates: -1952, -1802, 1140

Sage's Will 15: Starview Island/North Gerudo Sky Archipelago

The platform in question is quite similar to the one located over at the Eventide Islands. To reach it, Link will require the use of a flying machine to traverse the vast distance. To make the journey easier, it is recommended that Link departs from the East Gerudo Sky Archipelago and unlocks the fast-travel point at the Rakashog Shrine. While not mandatory, having this option available can prove to be incredibly helpful should Link need to make multiple trips to the island.

See Sage's Will 8 for a brief description of the King Gleeok.

Sage's Will 13 Chest Coordinates: -4447, -2370, 1419

Sage's Will 16: North Tabantha Sky Archipelago

Sage's Will 14 is a battle in Flux Construct II, which takes place on a battle platform located to the east of the North Gerudo Sky Archipelago. Although Tears of the Kingdom technically refers to this island as the West Hyrule Sky Archipelago, it appears to be the only island in the area. There are multiple shrines in the vicinity that can serve as fast-travel points, with the Ganos Shrine on the Tabantha Sky Archipelago being the most convenient. If Link hasn't completed the Tabantha Sky Crystal shrine quest to unlock Ganos Shrine, he can use Lindor's Brow Skyview Tower (-1908, 1244, 0297) to get to the platform.

Sage's Will 14 Chest Coordinates: -2306, -0402, 0894

Sage's Will 17: South Hebra Sky Archipelago

In order to obtain Sage's Will 15, Link must reach the large orb located in the center of the North Gerudo chain. This particular location is situated at a considerable height, therefore, the primary objective is to create a flying machine that can transport Link to the desired location. The basic flying machine, as previously mentioned in this guide, is suitable for this purpose. It is advisable, however, to avoid using the Wing as it has a time limit of one minute, which is insufficient. Instead, players should concentrate on constructing a small and easily maneuverable device.

Reaching the orb is just the first step, as Link will find a complex light/mirror puzzle once inside. Follow these steps to complete the puzzle:

2 Images

Head towards the central platform with three beams of light and a smaller platform on top. The smaller platform has turning arms that control the movement of the beams and the mirror. Link needs to determine the right beam of light that aligns the mirror in the correct position. A yellow lock mechanism located above can be seen when looking up, which appears to be the solution.

Players must align the mirror on top with the yellow device to ensure that one of the three beams of light below will align with a mirror. To progress, players must follow the beam of light from mirror to mirror until they reach a section that is not connecting to the next mirror. This section will be coming from a mirror high up in the chamber, which Link can access by utilizing the gusts of wind. Once he reaches the top, he'll find another turning mechanism and a clear chain of mirrors that must be connected to the light beam.

At the final turning mechanism, Link will notice that he can redirect the light towards the original mirror on the central platform. This will reflect the light up to the yellow lock, unveiling a shrine. However, for those seeking the Sage's Will, they must use the same mechanism to target a hidden yellow lock in front of a small chamber on the right side. Doing so will open a gate, granting access to the chest containing the Sage's Will at coordinates -3457, -0264, 1938.

Sage's Will 18: West Hebra Sky Archipelago - King Gleeok

Players in search of Sage's Will 16 in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will have to navigate their way to a small chain of islands located above Rito Village. The chest containing the coveted item can be found on the westernmost island of the chain. Link can use his Zora Armor to climb a waterfall coming down from the eastern island to reach the area. Alternatively, if Link has not obtained the Zora Armor yet, he can fly to the island from Lightcast Island to the south or the Ijo-o Shrine to the north.

The chest is found in the center of the island, on display in the middle of a small ruin.

Sage's Will 16 Chest Coordinates: -3780, 1572, 1238.

Sage's Will 19 & 20: Thunderhead Isles

The setup of this Sage's Will is reminiscent of Sage's Will 16, as it is situated on an open and unguarded small island. Although the map suggests that Link should use rails to access the island, he can effortlessly fly or glide from the Wind Temple entrance.

To reach the Wind Temple, Link can utilize the Rosparo Pass Skyview Tower (-3686, 2342, 0233) if he doesn't have access yet. However, he may need to land on the lower island to the west and use the rail system to get to the island with the Sage's Will. Fortunately, all the necessary tools for navigating the rails can be found on the island. The Sage's Will can be located at the chest coordinates of -3705, 2150, 0648.

{{h1_placeholder_18}}

To obtain This Sage's Will, one must ascend to a battle platform situated high in the sky. The most convenient mode of transportation is a basic flying machine, which can be used to travel upward from the Ijo-o Shrine. This particular shrine is not linked to a sky crystal, so locating it should not pose a challenge for Link. From this vantage point, the platform can be viewed in the western sky.

After another encounter with King Gleeok, Link must rely on a top-quality bow to come out victorious. Once the battle is won, a chest will appear, revealing the coveted Sage's Will. Its location can be found at coordinates -4471, 2172, 1253.

{{h1_placeholder_19}}

Players can obtain the final two Sage's Wills in the Thunderhead Isles, which are constantly engulfed in a violent storm throughout Tears of the Kingdom. However, as the game progresses, Link gains easier access to this area through a series of events. Obtaining these items before the storm dissipates is relatively easy, and this guide will present the images in that context. Nevertheless, the corresponding coordinates will remain valid even after the storm has subsided, allowing players who have already reached that point to utilize them.

In order to avoid the danger of lightning strikes while flying into a storm, it is crucial for players to ensure that they are not equipped with any metal objects. However, they can still use items made of wood or Zonai technology without any risk.

Sage's Will 19: Above Guchini Plain

To successfully navigate through the storm and reach the desired island, players must carefully place a marker at the precise location depicted in the above image. It is essential to maintain a high altitude, as there are smaller islands below that may deceive Link into believing he has arrived at the correct destination when in reality, he may be too low.

To ensure accuracy in marking a location, it is best to place the marker on the surface level. This will allow for easy visibility when Link switches back to air level and prevent the marker from disappearing. Additionally, if there is a storm in the area, using the surface map will enable precise placement of the marker. However, if Link is at a high elevation, he may have a better view and may be able to mark the location from above.

Link can discover a hidden section of the ground by following the marker to a breakable spot. To break through, he can use either bomb flowers or a rock/boulder hammer. The location of this spot is at coordinates 0957, -3310, 0857. After breaking through, players are advised to be cautious as there are two large metal blocks and a Shock Like on the wall. The moment Link drops into the corridor, lightning will strike the blocks.

The chest Link must find is sitting at the end of the corridor, between two Zonai lamps.

Sage's Will 19 Chest Coordinates: 0966, -3306, 0846

Sage's Will 20: Dragonhead Island

After finding the previous chest, Link can discover the final Sage's Will nearby. He needs to locate a specific mark and land accurately on it to reach the surface of the island where the chest is located. The chest might still be challenging to spot, so players should ensure that they place the marker as precisely as possible to avoid any difficulties.

Sage's Will 20 Chest Coordinates: 1308, -3211, 0459

{{h1_placeholder_20}}

After gathering four Sage's Wills, Link gains the ability to enhance the attack power of each Sage he recruits by using any of Tears of the Kingdom's Goddess Statues. The process is similar to using Lights of Blessing, but instead of boosting Health and Stamina, it focuses solely on attack power. It's important to note that this upgrade does not affect cooldown times or any other aspect of a Sage's ability. The game can be enjoyed on Nintendo Switch.
