The Zora Spear is a unique and storied weapon in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It is part of the Zora equipment set in the game and is often used by the Zora tribe to guard their lands against invaders.
The spear itself is crafted with a special metal that grants it a special effect called “Water Warrior.” This effect enhances the spear’s offensive capabilities once it is submerged in water.
It doesn’t apply any status effects to enemies, but its superior range and decent damage more than make up for this.
Zora Spear Locations
There are at least four locations where you can get your hands on the Zora Spear in Tears of the Kingdom. It all depends on how far off you are in your progression or how far you are willing to go to add the weapon to your inventory.
Below are all the locations where you can find Zora Spear, complete with maps and coordinates.
Eastern Coast of Tabahl Woods (Zora River)
Follow the Zora River along the Tabahl Woods until you reach the point marked on the map above. There, you will find a Black Lizalfos wielding a Zora Spear. On defeat, it will drop the same Zora Spear.
The exact coordinates for this enemy correspond to (2700, 0240, 0100). The Black Lizalfos is a Lizard-like monster that has high stamina and agility. Avoid fighting more than one of them, as they can easily overwhelm you if you happen to be surrounded by them.
Western Coast of Bone Pond
Another spot where you are guaranteed to find a Zora Spear lies in the Lanayru Wetlands. It can be found in the hands of Black Lizalfos just by the western coast of Bone Pond. Killing the Lizard will drop the Zora spear.
You can easily reach this location by fast traveling to the Jonsau Shrine and then going to the coordinates (2031, 0025, 0010).
Completing “Mired in Muck” side quest
Completing the Mired in Muck quest grants you a Zora Spear in Zelda: TotK. To complete this quest, reach the Skyview Tower in Upland Zorana.
Near the entrance to this tower, you will find a Zora that is completely stuck in Muck. You must clear the Muck using items that can produce water splashes (Splash Fruit or Opal Weapons).
Once you clear all the Muck, you will find Bazz, a Zora Solider who was trapped behind the Muck. If you talk to him, he will reward you with a Zora spear for freeing him. Just make sure you have one free slot in your inventory for the weapon.
South Akkala Plains Chasm
Enter the Depths through the South Akkala Plains Chasm and glide to the location marked on the map. There, you will find a shadowy figure holding a Zora Spear. A Zora Spear will be added to your inventory upon interacting with it.
The distance between this spear location and the South Akkala Plains Chasm is quite large, as you won’t be able to glide all the way to the spear.
Try recovering your stamina by landing at a high spot. Only then can you avoid walking through the hostile depths’ environment.
Bonus Method: Mipha’s Amiibo
Scanning Mipha’s Amiibo from Breath of the Wild will give you Zora’s Spear as a free drop. However, you can only use this method once in 24 hours.
