After you complete Tulin of Rito Village, it’s time to move on to bigger and better things in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, like completing The Hunt for Bubbul Gems for Koltin. The quest may not be necessary to complete, but it provides some very nice rewards, and the completion keeps giving! With this quest completion, you will gain a new avenue for collecting gear that doesn’t have to be purchased, which can be very valuable. Let’s look at how to complete The Hunt for Bubbul Gems in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom below.
Completing The Hunt for Bubbul Gems
Since one of your in-game goals is to find and visit as many stables as possible, you will inevitably come across the Woodland Stable. There are a few things to do surrounding the stable, including The Hunt for Bubbul Gems. While this may not seem like an important focus, it proves to be the opposite. Not only can you rid yourself of the many Bubbul Gems that you have been collecting in your inventory, but you can also get rewards for them.
Before you head out of the Woodland Stable area, go behind the building to where a man is sitting by a well. Upon speaking to the man, he will direct you to an area near the back of the Pico Pond with a brightly colored hot-air balloon.
Head back to the balloon, where you will meet a new NPC who warns you not to go inside the cave behind him. However, as he is in the process of explaining it to you, you hear a loud noise coming from the cave just before Koltin appears.
Koltin explains that he’s been searching for Bubbul Gems to eat. Koltin also explains that you can find Bubbul Gems as a drop from Bubbulfrogs, which inhabit caves everywhere. Before you can complete The Hunt for Bubbul Gems quest in Tears of the Kingdom, you must approach Koltin to trade a Bubbul Gem to him.
However, when Koltin eats the Bubbul Gem, he won’t be satisfied and will want more. Luckily, the quest will be complete after the first Bubbul Gem. Once Koltin eats the gem, he will give you a Bokoblin Mask, a variation of the Moblin Mask, which provides you with 3 Armor.
When all is said and done, Koltin’s brother will let you know that you can find him in Torrey Town whenever you are ready to look for Koltin again.
