Upgrade Paths

You get plenty of equipment in Twilight Princess, but figuring out how to upgrade it isn’t always easy. Where’s the bigger bomb bag? Where’s my fancy sword? Where’s my magical armor? If these questions keep you up at night, here’s the section for you.

Swords

The sequence of progression here is: Wooden Sword, Sword, Master Sword, Light Sword. Each of these swords is a requirement to proceed in the game, so you’ll automatically pick all of them up.

Armor

The armor you get proceeds as such: Hero’s Clothes, Zoran Armor, Magic Armor. The first two are obtained during the course of the game, whereas the Magic Armor will require a lot of cash. Give 1,000 Rupees to the Goran in Malo’s Mart in Kakariko to repair the bridge, then donate a furthern 2,000 Rupees to allow them to buy a shop in Castle Town’s main square. (You can reduce this latter cost to 200 rupees if you complete the hot springwater run from the shop in Kakariko to Castle Town, though.) Find the shop, and Malo will sell you the Magic Armor for 598 Rupees. Fitting that it costs so much, since it will constantly drain your Rupees while you wear it.

Bottles

You can obtain a total of four bottles throughout the game. The first is obtained automatically in Ordon, while the second is found not too long after that when you buy it from the lantern-selling hippy in the Faron Woods. The third and fourth bottles can be found later in the game.

If you hand in 20 Poe’s Souls to Jovani, you’ll obtain another bottle. Lastly, if you head to Hena’s Fishing Hole in Zora’s Domain, you can stand on a bridge near a sign warning about trash. Use your fishing pole off the western side of the bridge, and you’ll start collecting junk, among which will be a bottle.

Quivers

To collect more arrows, you have to head to the STAR game in Castle Town. Winning it for the first time will net you the 60-arrow quiver. This is technically possible as soon as you’re able to play it, but will get much easier when you have the clawshot. When you get the double clawshot, another course will open up; beating that will net you the 100-arrow quiver. You’ll probably never run through even 30 arrows in a row, since you can find them in jars, but the bigger, the better.

Bomb Bags

You get your first bomb bag when you buy the bombs from Barnes. The second can be found by helping out Iza at Iza’s Rapid Ride minigame; you can upgrade the bomb bag to make it bigger by completing another mini-game she offers. The third can be found by destroying a large rock in the underground portion of Zora’s Domain with a water bomb.

Wallets

Both of the wallet upgrades are available via Agitha in Castle Town. Deliver one bug to her for a 600-Rupee wallet; deliver all 24 for a 1,000-Rupee wallet.
