The world of Cadence of Hyrule is randomly generated so it is difficult to determine the exact location of each key item. However, most of the key items and important weapons are discovered in the same way every time. This Cadence of Hyrule Weapons Guide will help you determine the locations of best weapons in the game and highlight how the Infuse System works.
Cadence of Hyrule Weapons
Unlike the previous Zelda games, you can infuse weapons with a benefit so the previous benefit is merged with the new one. In order to get started, you have to first locate fairy sources. Since the world is randomly generated, it might be difficult to spot one. However, once you have located it, it will be marked on the map. Merging will cost you a few Diamonds each time you attempt it.
The list below shows the different mergers you can find in the game:
- Titanium: Increases weapon damage by +1.
- Emerald: This causes poison damage with each attack.
- Ruby: It has the ability to drain the lives of enemies with each attack.
- Obsidian: This increases the damage based on the multiplier of the hit score.
