How to get Epona in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. If you want to ride Epona, Link’s iconic steed in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, it is important that you know that there are two methods to achieve it.: one using your Breath of the Wild save file and one using amiibo.
Keep in mind that Epona is an extraordinary horse. Upon obtaining it, she will start out with a maximum bond (so no taming will be required), a docile temperament, and a four-star strength, speed, and stamina rating. Epona lacks a pull stat and cannot be equipped with a drag harness. Also, the god of horses cannot improve or customize it in the same way as other equines.
How to get Epona in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
1. How to get Epona using your Breath of the Wild save file
In case you have a save file of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on the same Switch console that you are playing Tears of the Kingdom on, Epona will be automatically registered once you have visited your first stable. You will only have to start a conversation with the individual located behind the counter in any stable and gain access to your valuable steed.
2. How to get Epona using amiibo
Epona can be summoned by using two different amiibo: the Super Smash Bros. Link amiibo and the Twilight Princess Link amiibo.. These two amiibo generate a particular set of prizes that are randomly awarded when scanned, one of which could be Epona. (Epona cannot be summoned with other Link amiibo variants.)
To take advantage of the amiibo, first, it is necessary to complete the initial zone. This will unlock the ability to use amiibo from the skill wheel.
To scan an amiibo, select the “amiibo” option on the skill wheel, position the white circle where you want the rewards to appear, then spawn the treasures by tapping the amiibo on the corresponding spot (either the center of a Pro Controller or the right Joy-Con stick).
Once you’ve spawned Epona with your amiibo, make sure to register her with the nearest stable to prevent her from disappearing..
Epona can be found in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Regrettably, no means have currently been discovered to unlock Epona in-game through a quest or chance encounter. The only confirmed ways to obtain Epona are through the Breath of the Wild save file or by using amiibo.
