Here’s the list of dragon scales in Tears of the Kingdom and what they do when Fused with a weapon: If that isn’t an option - or if the part simply falls off - a light trail will follow the dragon part, making it easy to find and retrieve it. Using a close-range weapon will make it simpler to get the part while still riding the dragon. There may also be times when you have to leave the dragon’s back to retrieve the part you farmed. But if you can, let Link rest for a while on top of the creature, and you’ll be getting six materials an hour or so. Dragons move fairly slow, which should make this easier. Note the dragon’s location on your map and after the 10 minutes have passed, head over to the nearest Skyview Tower and jump on the dragon again. If you don’t have the proper resistance to counter them, your best chance is to approach the dragon, grab the part you need, and make a swift escape. Remember, Farosh, Naydra, and Dinraal all have hazardous conditions around them based on their signature element. The risk of doing so is a surprise attack from an Aerocuda or passing through an electric storm, which can leave you vulnerable to lightning if you have any metal weapons, shields, or bows equipped. If you want to farm a multiple dragon parts in one encounter, you can just stay on top of a dragon and leave the game idle for 10 minutes. If you pause the game in any capacity, you’ll also pause this hidden timer, so be mindful of those bathroom breaks.

This is indicated by the dragon losing its colorful glow. After you get a dragon part - excluding shards of spikes - it takes 10 minutes for parts to drop again. There is a timer in place for farming dragon parts. The Glide Armor set can also be of help to get closer to the dragons when you’re skydiving, since you’ll want to be as nimble in the air as possible. However, for dragon fangs and claws, the accuracy of a regular arrow will work best, as homing arrows are guaranteed to hit the dragon, but their area of impact is random. Fusing these to your arrows give them a homing effect, increasing the accuracy of your shot and helping you hit the flying dragons easier. Before you set out to farm dragon parts, you’ll have an easier time if you’re stocked up on Keese, Aerocuda, or Octorok eyeballs.
