"A gear used in ancient machinery. Despite being incredibly old, its build quality is leaps and bounds above anything built using current technology."
The Ancient Gear is a material found in Breath of the Wild. It can be obtained by defeating almost all types of Guardians, with the exception being the Guardian Scout I. Additionally, Link can find an Ancient Gear by examining a decaying guardian, as well as by lifting legless guardians that are in the water, using Cryonis. Additionally, Link can purchase an Ancient Gear from the traveling merchant Teli for 120 Rupees. While Teli normally only sells an Ancient Screw, Ancient Spring, and Ancient Gear, he has a rainy day special, where Link can purchase two Ancient Gears for the same price of 120 rupees.
Use
This material can be used in creating ancient equipment at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab. Ancient Gears are used in the manufacturing of an Ancient Shield, Ancient Spear, and Ancient Bow. It is also used to purchase all items from the Ancient Armor set, such as the Ancient Helm, Ancient Cuirass, and Ancient Greaves. When Link upgrades the Ancient Armor at the Great Fairy, he will need at least 10 Ancient Gears for the second upgrade. Link can also trade an Ancient Gear with Kilton at his shop, the Fang and Bone, for 10 Mon each.
