One of the newer mechanics in the new The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom introduced is the fusion mechanic. So, to help the players out on how they can have the best fusions in the game for a smooth gaming experience, here is a Tears of the Kingdom Best Fusion guide. With that said, let’s get right into it.
Key Takeaways
- The players are first introduced to the ability/mechanic of fusion initially. When the players visit In-Isa Shrine, one of the four shrines you visit on the Great Sky Island.
- The players can throw Bombs, and they will explode, but with the addition of fusion mechanics, it is better to use them with arrows. Fusing your arrows with the Bomb Fruit can turn them into bomb arrows.
- Shock Fruit fusion allows the players to have shocking or electrocuting tendencies in their arrows, which is a massive help as it increases the damage to the enemies.
- The Fire Fruit fusion will create fire arrows. The tip of the arrows will be lit up. These arrows are a huge help if the players want to deal extra damage while conserving ammo.
- Chuchu Jelly are the low-level enemies located in the game’s Hyrule region. It is the best fusion possible as they are not rare, and players can find them easily.
- Gibdos are the enemies located in the game in the Gerudo Desert. Gibdos are hard and tough to beat, but the time and effort are all worth it. Because they drop their guts and bones, the players can use these guts and bones to fuse them with their weapons.
- Puffshrooms can produce smoke by making a cloud of spores of some kind. The players can use these mushrooms and fuse them with their arrows to make smoke arrows.
- Players can kill Aerocuda, and they will drop many valuable items like the eyeball and wing, etc. Aerocuda Eyeballs are very useful because they chase or home the target and deal damage to them.
- The Zonai Canons can make a lethal upgrade when fused with the shields.
- The players can select the Rockets they found in the game’s open world and use the fusion ability to fuse them to the shields. This fusion is helpful if the players want to increase their movement speed.
- Octo Balloon, like a rocket, is another item that, when fused with the shield, can help players move from one place to another.
- Players can fuse Puffshroom with their shield and make a Puffshroom shield.
- Time Bombs are well bombs that explode after some time when the player or anyone else hits them. Due to this, if the players fuse the Time Bomb with their shield, then they have a Time Bomb Shield.
- It is handy to have the Beam Emitter fusion with the shield because whenever the player uses it or aims at the enemies with the shield, it damages the enemies with a beam of light.
- Carts are objects already used for making vehicles and many other mechanisms. But if the players don’t know, they should note that they can also fuse carts with their shields and make a Shield Cart or a Shield Skateboard.
It is a new mechanic in the game that gives more creative freedom to the players by allowing them to fuse any two objects. This mechanic is mainly used for fusing random objects with arrows, swords, and shields.
How To Fuse In Tears Of Kingdom
The players are first introduced to the ability/mechanic of fusion in the beginning. When the players visit In-Isa Shrine, one of the four shrines you visit on the Great Sky Island. Here, the game explains and tells the players how to use the fusion ability. A description opens up by saying, “Attach something to an equipped weapon or shield to enhance it.”
Then, the game tells players the buttons they need to press to use the ability. Players are asked to hold the L bumper/trigger to move the items. If you can fuse any nearby item then it will be highlighted in blue.
After that, players are told to press Y to fuse the item with the weapon or ZL to fuse with a shield. The players are also told that they can also remove the fusion if they want to, but it will destroy whatever item was fused with the weapon or shield. So, it is up to the players to decide whether they want to fuse.
There are many good fusions that include fusing items with spears and swords etc. But, we will be discussing two of the most efficient fusions which include the arrows and shields fused with different items.
Best Fusions With Arrows
You can fuse arrows with many items like for example Bomb Flowers etc. Some of the best fusions possible in Tears Of The Kingdom with the arrows are:
Bomb Fruit Fusion
Bomb Fruits are one of the most iconic items in The Legend of Zelda games as they have been in the past instalments of the game. These as the name suggests are bombs. The players can throw them and they will explode but with the addition of fusion mechanics, it is better to use them with arrows. Fusing your arrows with the Bomb fruit can turn them into a bomb.
Shock Fruit Fusion
Shock Fruit fusion allows the players to have shocking or electrocuting tendencies, which is a massive help as it increases the damage dealt to the enemies.
Fire Fruit Fusion
The Fire Fruit fusion will create fire arrows. The tip of the arrows will be lit up. These arrows are a huge help if the players want to deal some extra damage while conserving ammo.
Chuchu Jelly Fusion
Chuchu Jelly are the low-level enemies that are located in the Hyrule region of the game. It is the best fusion possible as they are not rare and players can find them easily. The blue variant of the Chuchu Jelly isn’t much of a help as it is just water.
It’s the other color variants that come in handy. For example, the white variant makes ice arrows, the red variant creates fire arrows and the yellow variant creates shock arrows.
Gibdo Fusion
Gibdos are the enemies located in the game in the Gerudo Desert. These are hard and tough to beat, but the time and effort are all worth it. Because they drop their guts and bones, the players can use these guts and bones to fuse them with their weapons, which greatly increases their damage.
But, their biggest con is that they also easily break your weapons. That’s why the best way to utilize them is by fusing them with arrows.
Puffshrooms Fusions
Nintendo went a bit creative in this installment of the game and made an underground world called Depths. Here the players can find a type of mushroom called the Puffshrooms. These mushrooms have the ability to produce smoke by making a cloud of spores of some kind. The players can use these mushrooms and fuse them with their arrows to make smoke arrows.
Moreover, these smoke arrows can be used to create smokes which can be really helpful in fights or if you want to heal or run from a fight. Thus, this fusion can be considered one of the best fusions in Tears of the Kingdom.
Aerocuda Eyeball Fusion
In this installment of the game, Nintendo also added a new enemy called the Aerocuda. Players can kill them, and they drop many useful items like the eyeball and wing, etc. Aerocuda Eyeballs are very useful because they chase or home the target and deal damage to them. So obviously, it makes sense to use them by fusing them with the arrows.
This fusion will create what you can call the Aerocuda Eyeball Arrows or Homing Arrows. The arrows after being shot chase the enemy target and hit them dealing a high amount of damage. This can be really handy against fast or agile enemies as they are harder to aim than shot at.
Best Fusions With Shields
Like arrows, players can also use the items they found in the game to fuse them with their shield. Some of the best fusions the players can do with their shields are mentioned below:
Canon Fusion
Canons are the Zonai devices that fire in the direction where the player is pointing at. These canons utilize Zonai capsules as ammunition which can be found around the in-game world in Treasure Chests and Zonai Dispensers, or they can be also found just lying around randomly.
These canons can make a lethal upgrade when fused with the shields. The canon fused shield can then be used in battles and boss fights. But there is a huge cone to this fusion that the fusion can also destroy your shield if it is used too much. Because, of course, it would be too overpowered if you get to have the fused shield for the whole game.
Rocket Fusion
Another one of the best fusions that the players can make in tears of the kingdom with shields is the Rocket Fusion. The players can select the rockets they found in the game’s open world and use the fusion ability to fuse them to the shields. This fusion is most helpful if the players want to increase their movement speed and thus, reach their desired location in a shorter time period.
But, this fusion only helps the players once. Once the players used it then it is gone and you have to find another rocket and again fuse it with the shield.
Octo Balloon Fusion
Octo Balloon, like a rocket, is another item that when fused with the shield can help players move from one place to another. Honestly, it is easier to say this is a budget version of the Rocket Fusion.
Puffshrooms Fusion
Puffshrooms are the type of mushrooms located in the game’s darker regions. As mentioned earlier, these are used to produce smoke or a cloudy wall that can hinder the vision of the enemies. This can help the players run from the battle or restrategize.
So, if the players fuse the Puffshrooms with the shield, it makes a Puffshroom shield. When the enemies hit the shield, the Puffshroom explodes and creates a smoke cloud that blinds the enemies.
Time Bomb Fusion
Another one of the Zonait devices is the Time Bomb. Time Bombs are well bombs, that explode after some time when the player or anyone else hits them. Due to this, if the players fuse the Time Bomb with their shield, then they have a Time Bomb Shield.
When an enemy hits the shield fused with the Time Bomb, a timer starts in the form of blinks. Then after a few blinks, the bomb explodes, either dealing a high amount of damage to the enemies or completely killing them.
Beam Emitter Fusion
Beam Emitter is another Zonait device that emits a beam when used that damages the enemies. Players can fuse the Beam Emitter with the shield they have to make Beam Emitter Shield. This is a great but also weird fusion because the way it handles it shows that it is not meant to be used like that.
But still, it is handy to have this fusion because whenever the player uses the shield or aims at the enemies with the shield, it damages the enemies with the beam. So again, not an ideal fusion but a fusion that can work if done.
Cart Fusion
Carts are objects already used for making vehicles and many other mechanisms. But if the players don’t know, they should note down this idea that they can also fuse carts with their shields and make a Shield Cart or a Shield Skateboard.
This is an instrumental fusion when it comes to movement. This can, like the Octo Balloon and Rockets, also help players move from one place on the map to another very easily.
Cart and Shield Fusion
Conclusion
In the end, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a beautiful game with many different environments and objects to interact with. This game truly allows the players to take a creative approach to their goals with many new mechanics, including the fusion mechanic. And as gamers, we should all praise Nintendo for delivering us more than we expected.
