Properties | |
Swallow Bows are Bows favored among Rito warriors.[1] They belong to the Rito Gear equipment archetype, which consists of Weapons that are made and used by the Rito.[3] Engineered for aerial combat, the bowstring is able to be drawn faster than those of normal Bows.[1] They can be found most commonly in Rito Village, but some are scattered around the Tabantha Frontier and Hebra Mountains, either in Treasure Chests or being used by Enemies. Scanning the Breath of the Wild Series Revali amiibo with the amiibo Rune has a chance to spawn a Treasure Chest containing a Swallow Bow.
If the Great Eagle Bow is ever broken, Harth can remake it with five bundles of Wood, one Diamond, and a Swallow Bow.[4][5] A Swallow Bow can be found on the table next to Harth. If Link tries to take it, Harth will start to scold him.[6] When Link apologizes, Harth decides to let him keep it.[7][8]
Swallow Bows are made of wood, and they will therefore burn if they are exposed to Fire or equipped in a Scorching Climate. They will also float if they are dropped in Water, and they will not conduct Electricity or attract Lightning during Thunderstorms. Finally, Swallow Bows cannot be picked up with the Magnesis Rune.
