Where to find all the Great Fairies in Ocarina of Time
Ocarina of Time has six optional Great Fairies, each offering a unique power or upgrade that can make the adventure easier. Finding them requires reaching different areas as a child or adult and breaking or lifting the obstacles sealing their fountains.
The rewards include three spells, a stronger spin attack, doubled magic capacity and permanently halved damage. The fountains are in Death Mountain Trail, Hyrule Castle, Zora’s Fountain, Death Mountain Crater, Desert Colossus and Ganondorf’s Castle; access needs Bombs, the Megaton Hammer or Golden Gauntlets, depending on the location. Each Fairy charges rupees, with the final upgrade costing 500, so larger wallets from the Gold Skulltula quest may be needed.
In short
- Six optional Fairies offer unique powers and upgrades.
- Access requires explosives, the Megaton Hammer or Golden Gauntlets.
- The final Fairy charges 500 rupees for half damage.
