Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild): Difference between revisions

'''Gerudo Desert''' is a location found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. It is part of the larger [[Gerudo Region]], which is located in the southwesternmost part of [[Hyrule]], and is home to the Gerudo, who live primarily in [[Gerudo Town]]. It is also home to the [[Great Fairy Tera]], who can be found in the southwest corner of the Gerudo Desert by the [[Gerudo Great Skeleton]]. The Gerudo Desert is the only place in Hyrule where the [[Molduga]] and the [[Molduking]] can be found living.

Travelling through the Gerudo Desert during the day requires Heat Resistance Level 2 otherwise [[Link]] will lose health. To boost heat resistance, Link can wear the Desert Voe set (purchased at the [[Gerudo Secret Club]] or in [[Tarrey Town]] once the [[From the Ground Up]] side quest has been completed). The [[Sapphire Circlet]], purchased at the [[Starlight Memories]] jewelry store in Gerudo Town, also provides heat resistance. Link can also consume Heat Resistance elixirs or foods for a temporary boost to his heat resistance. A variety of [[Breath of the Wild Recipes|recipes]] are available for creating heat-resistant foods or elixirs.  

In addition to extreme temperatures, travel through the Gerudo Desert is complicated by sandstorms which can cause a loss of visibility. Deep sand also slows down travel. Wearing [[Sand Boots]] can help improvement movement through sand, and travelling by [[Sand Seal]] is the preferred method for travelling long distances.  Trained Sand Seals can be rented in Gerudo Town and untrained Sand Seals can be caught in various places throughout the Gerudo Desert.  A shield is required in order to travel by Sand Seal. If Link tries to travel to far in the desert, a large sandstorm blocks his path and he is not able to go further.
