The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is packed with plenty of side quests to explore along the way. One of which is the “The Flute Player’s Plan,” which requires you to locate ten Sunset Fireflies to hand over to Pyper while unlocking Great Fairies in Zelda TotK. Although it may seem straightforward, it can be difficult to locate the neon green creatures scattered throughout the game. This handy guide will help you find Sunset Fireflies in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom with ease.
Tips for Finding Sunset Fireflies in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
The first thing you should know when searching for Sunset Fireflies in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is that they are nocturnal creatures and are most commonly found in areas containing water bodies or forests such as the Hyrule Castle town. However, there are several other locations where you can find them:
- Hyrule Ridge: These can be found on the east side of the ridge, towards the swamp
- Great Hyrule Forest: They can be found near the Central Tower
- West Necluda: Located just south of Kakariko Village and near Dueling Peaks
- Faron Grasslands: Fleeting Firefly can be found during the night and is located on the pathway to Zora’s Domain
In addition to locating Sunset Fireflies in nature, you can purchase them from Beedle at Highland Stable for just 10 Rupees each. However, he only has three in stock at a time, so you will have to wait for the stock to refresh 24 hours later to purchase more.
The activity of approaching the Sunset Fireflies can be quite challenging. You must approach them stealthily while crouching to avoid spooking them. Moving too quickly or making sudden movements will scare them off. The crouch position provides the best chance of catching Sunset Fireflies in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, so be sure to utilize this technique when approaching them.
Now that you know where to find the Sunset Fireflies and how to catch them, you’re ready to complete the “The Flute Player’s Plan” side quest.
