  • Optimizing the Obsidian Frox Fang for fusion and armor upgrades

In the world of Tears of the Kingdom, the Frox creatures present a unique challenge, lurking in The Depths rather than the familiar lands of Hyrule. These massive beasts, while imposing, can be overcome with the right approach. Each type of Frox in the game drops distinct monster parts upon defeat, necessitating the acquisition of Obsidian Frox Fangs for armor upgrades.

Locating Obsidian Frox

Fixed Spawns in The Depths

Obsidian Frox can be found at specific locations in The Depths. Look for them at coordinates like (4133, 1034, -0649) near Kawikatisar Lightroot and (2502, 0900, -0501) close to Anonisik Light Root. Refer to the marked spots on the images for precise guidance.

Conquering Obsidian Frox

Breaking the Ore Deposits

To defeat an Obsidian Frox, target and shatter the ore deposits on its back. These creatures boast higher resilience compared to other Frox variants and exhibit swiftness in their attacks. When facing an Obsidian Frox, evade its inhalation attempts by sprinting away or using explosive tactics. Utilize bomb flowers to stun the Frox momentarily, allowing you to assault its vulnerable ore deposits.

During combat, be prepared for the Frox to launch you into the air. Safeguard your landing using a paraglider or seize the opportunity to strike its exposed weak points. Employ a blunt weapon like a hammer for enhanced damage against the Frox's ore deposits.

Harnessing Obsidian Frox Fang

Fusion and Armor Enhancement

The Obsidian Frox Fangs possess a Fuse Power of 24, ideal for augmenting weapons with a blunt attribute, perfect for breaching enemy armor or battling formidable foes. While these fangs can enhance weaponry, they are especially valuable for upgrading armor sets. The Depths Armor Set necessitates Obsidian Frox Fangs for its level 3 enhancement, obtained by locating specific Poe Statues.

Enhancing each armor piece to level 2 unveils the Depths Armor Set Bonus, granting 'gloom attack resistance.' For a substantial boost in defense, including a maximum defense of 20 points per piece at level 4, consider fortifying the Depths Armor with Obsidian Frox Fangs and other essential materials.
