Tips
  • The Lightscale Trident has the special ability Water Warrior, which doubles its attack power when Link is wet (e.g., during rain, standing in water, in moist caves, or using Vow of Sidon).

Repairing the Lightscale Trident:

The Lightscale Trident cannot be repaired by Rock Octoroks directly. To repair it:

  1. Fuse the Lightscale Trident to another repairable weapon (e.g., a sword, Tree Branch), ensuring the trident is the base weapon.
  2. Feed the fused weapon to a Rock Octorok.
  3. Retrieve the weapon after the Rock Octorok spits it out.
  4. Take the weapon to Tarrey Town and use the Break-a-Part Shop to separate the trident from the base weapon. This will restore the trident's durability.
