How to Get the Best Gear from Merchants – The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Recommended Videos

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, like its predecessors, has some interesting features for those who really pay attention. One of those features helps players obtain the best possible gear from Wandering Merchants out in the world. It turns out that their wares are affected by the weather.

If you encounter a Wandering Merchant, they each tend to have a set of gear and other items that you can always find on them. However, if you find them while it’s raining, they’ll have advanced and rare versions of some of their items and equipment. Think of it as a rainy day sale, one that you can take advantage of as soon as you start to see storm clouds gathering. Just hurry to locate a merchant and once it starts raining, it’s time to do business. This is when they’ll have their best gear and items for sale.

This is a great way to get the best cooking ingredients so that you can heal better and utilize better buffs while traversing Hyrule and all its dangerous areas. They’ll also have rare gear for you to browse, and other high-end items to enjoy.

Now that you know how to get the best gear from merchants, if you need help with any other aspect of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – such as guides, tips, tricks, and general information – be sure to check out our wiki.
