How to Increase Weapon Durability in Tears Of The Kingdom (TOTK)

Repair Weapons in Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

To increase weapon durability you should use a strong base weapon and fuse it with any gem. The rarer and more valuable the gem the higher its durability will be. So typically you should try fusing Zonai weapons with Diamonds. Any weapon made of these should last a long time before breaking.

But if you don’t happen to have the above gems then you should still follow the rule of having a strong base weapon. Another thing to keep in mind is that the second weapon that you fuse it with also matters because your base weapon will take in its attributes. So if you choose to add a decayed weapon to a good base weapon. Then while its damage may increase its durability will reduce. Similarly, if your base weapon is weak but the one that you add is stronger then it will improve its durability a bit.

A quick tip to use your weapons for longer is to not fuse them until they flash red. When they start flashing red it means they are about to break. Now fuse them with another weapon or a gem and it will improve its durability.
