In ''Oracle of Seasons'', the Noble Sword is again the reward for completing the [[Oracle of Seasons Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]] of the game. It is found deep within the [[Lost Woods]], and the directions to get to its location can be acquired from a [[Deku Scrub]] that is found in a cave in the southwest area of the woods. The Deku Scrub is found humming to a song,{{Ref|OoS|431|Deku Scrub}} but starts to stare at Link's [[Phonograph]].{{Ref|OoS|432|Deku Scrub}} If Link plays it, the scrub loves the tune, and teaches Link the directions to his "Secret Spot": "If temperatures rise as you go far to the west, you'll find it!".{{Ref|OoS|433|Deku Scrub}} Following these directions leads Link right to the Noble Sword.

Similarly to ''Oracle of Ages'', the Noble Sword in ''Oracle of Seasons'' deals more damage than the Wooden Sword, but less damage than the Master Sword and Biggoron's Sword. Additionally, the Noble Sword can perform a [[Sword Beam]] at full health, allowing Link to be able to defeat enemies from afar.  

 

==''Oracle of Ages''==

In ''Oracle of Ages'', the Noble Sword is the reward for completing the [[Oracle of Ages Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]], and is acquired from [[Patch]], the self-proclaimed restoration guru{{Ref|OoA|2181|Patch}} who can be found in a small cave atop [[Restoration Wall]].{{Ref|OoA|1326|Girl in the [[Middle House]]}} Patch takes the [[Broken Sword]], which [[Link (Oracle Series)|Link]] acquired from the [[Old Zora]] in exchange for the [[Sea Ukulele]], and offers to use his Restoration Ceremony to fix it.{{Ref|OoA|2184|Patch}} If Link successfully completes the game, Patch gives Link the Noble Sword, saying it is perfect.{{Ref|OoA|2193|Patch}}

 

The Noble Sword deals more damage than the [[Wooden Sword]], but less damage than the Master Sword and Biggoron's Sword. Additionally, the Noble Sword can perform a [[Sword Beam]] at full health, allowing Link to be able to defeat enemies from afar.

 

In a [[Linked Game]], the Noble Sword can also be acquired via the [[Clock Shop Secret]]. After Link has completed the [[Skull Dungeon]], an old woman appears beside the [[Ember Tree]] in [[South Lynna]], the area just south of [[Lynna City]] in the [[Present]]. She asks if Link knows about the [[Clock Shop]] found in [[Holodrum]], and then tells Link to dig around the back of it and tell a secret to a friend of hers there.{{Ref|OoA|1980|Old Woman in South Lynna}} If Link digs behind the shop with the [[Shovel]], he reveals an underground room, where the [[Old Man]] can be found. The Old Man acknowledges the "old hag"'s message, and tells Link that if he can pass his test, he will give Link's sword new power.{{Ref|OoS|1460|Old Man}} The test involves Link slaying 12 beasts in 30 seconds, without being slain himself.{{Ref|OoS|1462|Old Man}} If Link successfully completes the test, the Old Man observes that the old hag has chosen well,{{Ref|OoS|1467|Old Man}} and gives Link's sword new power.{{Ref|OoS|1468|Old Man}} The Old Man then gives Link a secret so he can give his sword new power in Labrynna, as well.{{Ref|OoS|1469|Old Man}} If Link tells this secret to [[Farore (Oracle)|Farore]] within the [[Hall of Secrets]], his sword will be upgraded; either from the Wooden Sword to the Noble Sword, or the Noble Sword to the Master Sword, depending on whether Link has completing the Trading Sequence yet.
