Mighty Bananas, the Yiga Clan's favorite. As in every other Zelda game, Yiga Clan members in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom love this fruit to the point of obsession, even shirking their duties and straying from their main mission (taking down Link) in order to get a taste.
Of course, Link can enjoy Mighty Bananas too, especially since they can increase Attack when cooked into a dish. Players looking to get their hands on this illustrious fruit themselves can follow this guide for the best places to find Mighty Bananas in Tears of the Kingdom.
Where to Find Mighty Bananas in Tears of the Kingdom
Mighty Bananas are a fairly common item in Tears of the Kingdom. Players on the hunt for them should set their Sensor+ to Mighty Bananas to be alerted when they're nearby.
Enemy Drops
Mighty Bananas are dropped by the following enemies:
- Yiga Footsoldier
- Yiga Blademaster
- Hinox
Mighty Banana Trees
By far the best place to farm Mighty Bananas is in the Faron Region and on Eventide Island. Mighty Banana Trees are all over this area, so make sure to activate Joju-u-u Shrine for an easy travel point to collect lots of Mighty Bananas.
What to Do With Mighty Bananas in Tears of the Kingdom
Mighty Bananas can be sold for five Rupees each and eaten raw to restore half a heart in a pinch. But to bring out their full potential, players can do the following.
Upgrade the Yiga Clan Armor Set
The Yiga Clan Armor Set requires thirty total Mighty Bananas to upgrade all pieces to the highest level.
Cook For Attack Boost
Potentially the most useful thing to do with Mighty Bananas is to cook them to bring out their attack-boosting abilities. One to two Mighty Bananas will result in a level one attack boost, three will give a level two attack boost, and four or five will give a level three attack boost, as shown in the picture above.
Mighty Bananas can also be combined with other attack-boosting ingredients like Mighty Thistle or Mighty Carp to produce a more potent dish.
Dye Link's Armor
Mighty Bananas can be used at the Kochi Dye Shop in Hateno Village to dye Link's armor yellow. This doesn't work for all armor, but most armor sets can be dyed this way.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now on Nintendo Switch.
