Frequently Asked Questions

General Information

1. What is Farosh’s path and location in TotK?: Farosh can be found emerging from the large East Gerudo Chasm on the southeast side of the Gerudo Desert, just south of the Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower, and it travels southeast, following the canyon before straightening its course to head east towards Lake Hylia.
2. Where are all the places Farosh spawns?: Farosh appears on the western edge of the Gerudo Highlands and travels east across the mountain range, coming out of the waters of Lake Hylia in the Lake Region, or Lake Floria in the Faron Region.
3. Where is the easiest place to find Farosh?: The easiest way to get to ‘electric‘ Farosh is at the end of its route, on the southern coast at Rassala Lake in the Faron region, where Farosh will fly in from the north and up into the air, with a waterfall overlooking the dragon as the perfect position to shoot.

Spawn Timing and Location

4. How often does Farosh appear?: Farosh actually spawns around the clock in the Gerudo Highlands, which might be considered a bug since other dragons and Farosh at other locations only spawn between 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM.
5. How to free Farosh?: Sit by the fire until morning while looking at Riola spring, and when morning comes, Farosh instantly spawns from the spring, creating an updraft that allows for easy access.
6. What time of day does Farosh spawn?: Farosh spawns at 5 AM, similar to Dinraal, giving players an early morning opportunity to encounter the Lightning Dragon.

Interaction and Combat

7. Can Farosh be killed?: While it cannot be defeated, Farosh does not actively try to harm Link, but getting too close can damage him due to the electricity surrounding its body, unless he has a full set of Rubber Armor or the Thunder Helm.
8. How do you get Fang from Farosh?: Shards of Farosh’s Fang are acquired by shooting the dragon in the face, at which point it will glow and fall on the ground, and can be found flying through Lake Hylia, Lake Floria, and the Gerudo Highlands.
9. Why is Farosh not spawning?: Note that Farosh may not spawn if you wait at the same location too many times in a row or during certain weather conditions.

Path and Movement

10. How long does Farosh’s path take?: Farosh’s full path will take about thirty-five minutes to complete, with almost half of its total path underground in the Depths.
11. Where are Farosh’s horns?: You can get Farosh’s Horn by striking the horns of the large sky dragon that flies above the southwestern skies of Hyrule.
12. Is Farosh the light dragon?: Farosh the Lightning Dragon is indeed distinct and can be identified by its path and the regions it frequents.

Related Creatures and Lore

13. Is Farosh a Zonai?: There are context clues suggesting that Naydra, Farosh, and Dinraal were once Zonai.
14. Where can I find Naydra?: Naydra is first found at the Spring of Wisdom at the peak of Mount Lanayru, corrupted by Malice, and later can be found just north of Mount Lanayru in Lanayru Bay.
15. Did Farosh swallow a Secret Stone?: It stands to reason that Dinraal, Naydra, and Farosh must be the ones who originally swallowed their Stones, and have now been roaming for eons, similar to the Light Dragon in Zelda: TOTK.
