The Weapon Connoisseur Side Quest

This page explains how to start and complete the The Weapon Connoisseur side quest.

How to Start the Quest

Talk to a boy named Nebb in Hateno Village, which is east of Hateno Tower, to start the quest. Nebb runs around in front of the shops during the day.

How to Complete the Quest

Traveler's Sword

Nebb's first request is to see a Traveler's Sword. There is a Traveler's Sword in a broken wagon in the eastern part of the water around Woodland Tower. You can use Magnesis to pull it away from the swamp. When you have one, go back to Hateno Village, equip the sword, and talk to Nebb.

Fire Rod

Next, he asks to see a Fire Rod. These are wielded by Fire Wizzrobes. One place to find a Fire Wizzrobe is between Crenel Hills and Crenel Peak, which are north of Dueling Peaks Tower. Once you have a Fire Rod, go back to Hateno Village, equip it, and talk to Nebb.

Moblin Club

Afterward, he asks to see a Moblin Club. The Moblins northeast of the Great Plateau wield them. Once you have a Moblin Club, go back to Hateno Village, equip it, and talk to Nebb.

Duplex Bow

Then he asks to see a Duplex Bow. You can obtain one if you approach the Yiga Hideout by going to Karusa Valley, which is northwest of Gerudo Town and west of Gerudo Tower, and make your way through the valley to the area with frog statues. A Yiga will appear as you continue going northeast. Defeat them to get a Duplex Bow. You can also keep going northeast to reach the Yiga Hideout, where you can defeat a large Yiga to get a Windcleaver. See Yiga Clan Hideout for a walkthrough for the Yiga Hideout. Once you have one, go back to Hateno Village, equip it, and talk to Nebb.

Windcleaver

Next, he wants to see a Windcleaver. See the previous paragraph for how to reach the Yiga Hideout, where you can defeat Yiga who have Windcleavers. Once you have one, go back to Hateno Village, equip it, and talk to Nebb.

Ancient Battle Axe+

Then he wants an Ancient Battle Axe+. These can be obtained by defeating Guardians in Modest Test of Strength shrines. These Guardians are revived every Blood Moon. See below for a list.

Frostspear

Next, he wants to see a Frostspear. The Namika Ozz Shrine has a Frostspear in the treasure chest, as well as the Jitan Sami Shrine. Also, there is a Black Bokoblin with a Frostspear in the big skull in the hills west of Rito Village, which is north of Tabantha Tower. Once you have a Frostspear, go back to Hateno Village, equip it, and talk to Nebb.

Ancient Short Sword

Finally, Nebb asks for an Ancient Short Sword. This can only be obtained from Cherry at Akkala Ancient Tech Lab after you complete the quest Robbie's Research. Once you have it, equip it and talk to Nebb to complete the quest.

Quest Reward

After you show all the weapons, Nebb gives you a Diamond.
