You will have to spend a lot of time in the sky to get this excellent material because you’ll be looking for a dragon called Light Dragon. We’ll walk you through how to get the Light Dragon’s Scale in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom as quickly as possible.
Where To Find Light Dragon Scales in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
To get Light Dragon Scales, you’ll first need to find the Light Dragon, one of the mighty dragons that dominate the sky in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The Light Dragon cannot be seen from the surface, and you must be as high as possible to spot it. This magnificent dragon patrols the outer areas of the map throughout the day and always proceeds on the same route. The Light Dragon travels Hyrule on this route:
- Starting point – Hyrule Fields
- Then north to Hebra Mountains
- Passes by Death Mountain
- Then heads central into Lanayru Wetlands
- Then heads towards East Necluse, edge of the map
- Passes by Lake Hylia
- Then crosses Gerudo Highlands and goes back to Hyrule Fields
- It resets its route
Crossing the Light Dragon’s route will be highly challenging as it is constantly on the move. However, since the route the Light Dragon flies is the same, you can wait for the dragon to pass in one of these regions or follow this route quickly. Every ten minutes, the Dragons are said to reset their path, at which time they may be impossible to locate. But you can find the Light Dragon by following this route at certain times of the day or by waiting at a specific place. You can use a hot air balloon or your kite to fly to it.

Once you find the Light Dragon, it’s time to get your Light Dragon Scale. Get on top of the dragon using your Paraglider or a hot air balloon. Landing on it may be tricky and take time, but it is possible by gliding from one of the surrounding high areas.
Upon landing on it, attack its scales with your weapon and loot your Light Dragon Scale. Please note that you can only get one Light Dragon Scale from the dragon at one time. If you need more, you have to wait for the dragon to reset, and you can do it on the second flight.
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is now available on Nintendo Switch.
