The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom’s Robbie stands in a slight squat looking straight ahead, with his left hand touches his face.

In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom , the Purah Pad replaces the Sheikah Slate from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild — a key tool with several upgrades helpful for your journey through Hyrule.

To start upgrading the Purah Pad — which includes the Travel Medallion , Hero’s Path , and Shrine Sensor — you need to complete the “ A Mystery in the Depths ” questline. This will unlock the Hateno Village Research Lab, which is where the (upgrade) magic happens. This quest begins and ends in Hyrule Field’s Lookout Landing with researcher Josha.

How to start the Hateno Village Research Lab quest

Once you’ve finished up with Josha in Lookout Landing during the “ A Mystery in the Depths ” quest, Robbie will appear near the balloon you just fixed and instruct you to head over to East Necluda, where the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab is located. You can teleport to Zanmik Shrine to reach the village quickly. The lab is just east of Hateno Village .

How to get the Shrine Sensor

The Shrine Sensor is a tool used to find Shrines of Light in Hyrule. The sensor will react with beeping noise when you’re heading toward a shrine — following that means locating a shrine. The Sensor emblem is located on the right-hand side of the Tears of the Kingdom user interface. It’ll blink (and make the sound) more rapidly as you approach a shrine. It can be toggled on through the map screen with the Y button .

Robbie will have you test out the Sensor by running around in his home and, later, outside in Hateno Village. Follow the Sensor to get a feel for how it works.

It’ll lead you to the Mayahisik Shrine , which is hidden inside a cave with its entrance blocked. You’ll need to blow up the rocks to get in. The entrance to the cave is at coordinates (3741, -2085, 0208) . We used a bomb flower to get it — stand back!

There’s a shrine behind the rocks featured here in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Head into the cave and glide down the hole to the right, then follow the cave system to reach the Mayahisik Shrine at coordinates (3730, -2058, 0189) . Head back to Robbie and the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab .

How to get the Travel Medallion

Once you’ve got the Sensor installed, Robbie will offer to help with another upgrade for the Purah Pad; you can choose the order, but for ease of explanation, we’ll go in order they’re listed.

Robbie will send you off to the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab in Akkala to seek out prototypes for the Travel Medallion , which lets you set up fast travel gates anywhere. Using it is as easy as opening your inventory and marking the current location to place the medallion and make a gate. In total, the Travel Medallion can make three gates, but it needs to be upgraded to max it out. Let’s start, first, with just unlocking the feature.

The Akkala Ancient Tech Lab is located at the top right-hand side of Hyrule. You’ll probably want to fast travel as close as you can get before making your way from there. The Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower is a good spot, and you can cover a lot of distance with your paraglider from there. Though it’s a long journey, you can use that travel time to seek out shrines or monsters to meet Robbie’s other upgrade requirements.

Once you find the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab , located at coordinates (4510, 3153, 0247) , be ready for battle. Trying to enter through the door will kick off a fight against Yiga Clan enemies who shoot red projectiles, which you’ll need to dodge, then hit away with a sword.

Once you’ve dispatched them, enter the lab to meet Konba , a fashion designer, who will give you Yiga Armor . He’ll leave, then search for a chest that holds the Travel Medallion prototype.

If you’re up for exploring, the Rasiwak Shrine is nearby. Once you’re ready, head back to Robbie at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab . He’ll unlock the medallion and start offering you upgrades — 10 map-data locations for a second gate and 15 for a third. Now you’ll be able to drop three gates, and delete and reuse the medallions as needed.

How to get the Hero’s Path

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom screenshot showing the green line of the Hero’s Path

The Hero’s Path gives the ability to see the exact path of your journey through Hyrule, up to 256 hours of gameplay. On the map screen, push the X button to switch on Hero’s Path mode. Do the same to switch it off. The button on the bottom of the screen lets you simple toggle Hero’s Path on and off, but also lets you watch the path unravel from the start — it’s a very cool feature, and it tracks deaths, too.

Robbie will ask you for data from 15 shrines. If you’ve already got that, you’re all set — he’ll immediately take the Purah Pad and start setting things up. Otherwise, head out and find more shrines before proceeding. Our list of shrine locations can help point you toward some shrines close by.

How to get Sensor +

Sensor + is like an upgraded version of the Shrine Sensor you unlocked earlier — it can detect more than just shrines.

To unlock it, Robbie wants you to fill the compendium with five different types of monsters. You add monsters to the compendium by grabbing their attention and taking a photo. Once you’ve got five different monsters in there, head back to Robbie in the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab.

You can set the Sensor + to search for anything available in the Hyrule Compendium .

Filling out the Compendium quest

After finishing with Purah Pad upgrades, Robbie will brag about his own completed compendium. He’s willing to sell pictures from his to help fill out yours — you can choose a category (Fauna, Enemy, Material, Weapon, or Other) for 100 rupees, and he’ll choose what specific photo to give you.

Totk Travel Medallion Talking To Robbie At Hateno Tech Lab

How to get and use the Travel Medallion in Tears of the Kingdom (TotK)

Image of Jason Venter

Hyrule as seen in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is an enormous place. Often, you can warp quickly around it by using activated shrines and towers to fast travel. However, there sometimes are remote locations you have reason to visit regularly. That’s when a particular upgrade comes in handy. Here is our guide explaining how to get and use the Travel Medallion in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom .

Tears of the Kingdom – how to get and use the Travel Medallion

The Travel Medallion is a handy item you can use to warp directly to the location of your choosing, even if you haven’t found a nearby shrine or skytower to activate. Normally, you might have to hike a long distance, which can be tedious or dangerous. If you have the medallion, however, you can save yourself that hassle. To get the Travel Medallion, complete a task for Robbie at the Hateno Research Lab.

To use the Travel Medallion, access it from the Key Items menu and place one at your current location. You can then warp to that point whenever you like.

When you first meet Robbie , he shares a room with Josha in Lookout Landing . The two researchers present quests early in the game, as you discover how to get the Autobuild ability . After you complete that objective and deal with Robbie a bit more, he takes off to his research center.

Find Robbie at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab on the hill outside Hateno Village , which is north of the Necluda Sea in the southeast (check our guide telling where to find Hateno Village if you need further assistance).

When you talk to Robbie at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, ask him about the Travel Medallion. He sends you to clear out the Ancient Tech Lab in the Deep Akkala region (it’s located a short distance south of the world map’s northeastern corner). Once you defeat the Yiga Clan members that have taken over the lab, open the treasure chest they guarded to find the Travel Medallion Prototype . Take it back to Robbie, who gets it working for you.

Totk Travel Medallion Possible Placement Location

By default, you can use the Travel Medallion to set one convenient fast travel point. As you activate skytowers and review more of the world map, Robbie upgrades the Travel Medallion. This grants you as many as three uses. By the time I met him, I had already activated every skytower, so I didn’t have to wait.

I suggest placing a Travel Medallion north of Death Mountain , near where you can find four Rock Octoroks . They offer you a way to repair weapons and shields . Once you venture into the Depths to meet Ganondorf , you might also set a medallion near the point of no return, so you can conveniently return once you have supplies. A third use might be to set one somewhere near a remote location where you like to farm rare items. If you ever decide you don’t like where one is placed, visit its location and retrieve it to use it elsewhere. Travel Medallions can prove quite handy.

Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - How To Get The Travel Medallion

Use Travel Medallions as instant teleporters in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

By Jason Rodriguez on May 11, 2023 at 9:00PM PDT

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Travel Medallions are highly important items that you can obtain during the course of your adventure. While you'll encounter the usual fast travel methods, these items will let you create your own teleportation circles on the world map. Here's our guide to help you with get Travel Medallions in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

How to get Travel Medallions in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

To get the Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Travel Medallions, you'll have to proceed further with Robbie the Researcher's side quests. You can learn about these in our Purah Pad Camera and Sensor guide .

Once you're done with those steps, Robbie will tell you about his old lab in Akkala Highlands all the way to the northeast. Upon arriving there, you'll battle two Yiga Ninja enemies. After clearing the encounter, you should be able to enter the lab.

Robbie's old lab in Akkala Highlands is all the way at the northeastern tip of the map.

Inside, you'll find an NPC named Konba, who'll hand over the Ninja Armor, a chestpiece that increases your stealth capabilities. As for the Travel Medallion, you can pick it up from the chest next to the wooden board with a map. Return to Robbie in Hateno Village, and he'll hand over three Travel Medallions.

The Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Travel Medallions can be found under the key items tab of your inventory screen. When selected, you can choose to place one on the exact spot where Link is standing.

The Travel Medallion is in the key items tab.

This will create a blue circle with glyphs, essentially creating an instant, customized fast travel point. This nifty function is quite important, as there are some hard-to-reach locations in the game world, further away from most Shrines and Skyview Towers. It's going to be a hassle in case you want to go back to those locations on foot or by gliding.

Now, even though you only have three Travel Medallions, you don't need to worry about wasting any of them. You can regain them by opening the world map and selecting the makeshift teleportation circle that you've created. Click on the "Collect Medallion" option and it will be returned back to your inventory.

There are numerous mechanics and facets to learn in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. For more information, you can visit our guides hub .

We recommend placing your Travel Medallions in one of these places so you can farm loot of some creatures better.

The Floating Coliseum in the Depths is a great place to put your Travel Medallion in because it allows you to farm Lynels. Their loot are great for Fusing with weapons so you'll be more effective in combat.

Sky Island Above a Dragon's Path

It's also ideal to place your Travel Medallion on a sky island that's directly above a dragon's path. This will save you time trying to glide to a dragon to farm their loot.

Placing a Travel Medallion in the Imprisoning Chamber before you head for the final boss battle is also recommended. Doing so will shorten your journey to the Demon King if you want to battle him again.

If you're looking to upgrade your Ancient Hero Aspect and Royal Guard armor, we recommend placing your Travel Medallion in places where there is a King Gleeok. This will help you farm their loot faster.

Zelda TOTK Satori Mountain.png

Satori Mountain is also a great place to put your Travel Medallion in because of the resources this mountain offers. There are plenty of Apples in one area of the mountain and a few Endura Carrots in the area where the Cherry Blossom Tree is.

Apples, when cooked, can restore your health while Endura Carrots can restore your stamina plus give you a bit extra.

Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtree Map Fits In The Middle Of The Lands Between

Elden ring: shadow of the erdtree - every cookbook location, riven (2024): jungle island, part 2 walkthrough, quick links, how to start the travel medallion quest line, where to find the travel medallion, how to upgrade the travel medallion.

The Travel Medallion returns in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom , but it's not a DLC-locked item this time around. There is a quest chain involving Robbie that lets you access this Key Item, allowing you to create your own fast travel spots.

Related: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - Satori Cherry Blossom Trees Guide

You can grab the Travel Medallion from Robbie after you complete his first quest and unlock the Photo mode on your Purah Pad. When you first unlock the Travel Medallion, it can create one fast travel point. This can be further upgraded by Robbie two more times, giving you a total of three custom fast-travel points that can be placed wherever you want.

When you first get to Lookout Landing, you want to continue along the main quest until you unlock the one called Regional Phenomena.

With this unlocked, you should be able to talk to Robbie and Josha. Upon talking to them, you should begin a quest called Camera Work in the Depths.

This quest requires you to dive into a chasm and explore the depths, unlocking the Photo mode in the Purah Pad in the process. Complete Josha and Robbie's request to photograph statues in the Depths and return to them.

With that done, you must complete the follow-up quest called A Mystery in the Depths, which unlocks the Autobuild function. With Autobuild unlocked, return to Lookout Landing and repair the makeshift balloon transporter.

Robbie will mention he is moving back to Hateno Village, taking up residence in the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, and that you should look for him there.

To continue his quest, this should be your next destination. Take your time, or beeline directly there.

When Robbie moves to Hateno Village, make your way over there and visit the lab on the top of the hill. Here Robbie will talk to you about upgrading your Purah Pad as well as unlocking the Shrine Locator for you.

One such upgrade Robbie provides is the Travel Medallion, which he explains is currently elsewhere. After you ask him about it, he will tell you to go to the Akkala Region north of Hateno Village, specifically to the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab.

Travel to the Akkala Region and go to the Ancient Tech Lab, just up the road from the East Akkala Stables. When you arrive, knock on the door to trigger a Yiga Clan ambush.

Defeat these knuckleheads, and you'll be able to go inside the lab. When you enter, head for the chest to the right that holds the Travel Medallion.

You should talk to the man on the left side of the room to obtain a piece of the Yiga Clan armour set , the Yiga Armour.

With the prototype in hand, travel back to Robbie in Hateno Ancient Tech Lab . Talk to him about the Travel Medallion Prototype, and he will reward you with a functioning Travel Medallion.

Now you can use the Travel Medallion to place custom fast-travel points . To do this, select it from your Key Items and use it wherever you want. This will create a gate you can now return to or replace at any time.

You can upgrade the Travel Medallion two more times, giving you a total of three custom fast-travel points. These fast-travel points can be placed anywhere in the overworld, even in the Depths.

When you place the Travel Medallion, you can remove your previously-set fast-travel point by selecting it in the Key Items menu and clicking Collect.

This will bring up your Map and you can choose which ones to remove.

To upgrade the medallion, Robbie asks you to give him ten map-data locations and return to him. When Robbie says map-data locations, he's referring to activating Skyview Towers.

This means each time you reveal an area on the map will count towards it. Revealing and using all 15 Skyview Towers will let you upgrade the Travel Medallion again, giving it three charges.

How to get the Travel Medallion in Tears of the Kingdom (TotK)

Kick things off with Robbie

If there’s one thing you should aim to pick up early in your Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom playthrough, it’s the Travel Medallion. Simply put, it’s a portable fast travel spot that you can place nearly anywhere on the map (useful for upgrading or shop hotspots) and return to pretty much anytime you want. It’s like a completely free unlimited-use recall spell! Here’s how to unlock the Travel Medallion and zip around the map.

the travel medallion totk

Step 1: Start the Robbie questline at Lookout Landing

To kick off the Travel Medallion questline, you’ll want to speak to Robbie in Lookout Landing . They are directly below where Purah stands, near the Poe Statue . The exact coordinates for Robbie can be found above.

We have a full guide on getting that questline started here .

Hateno Village in Tears of the Kingdom location

Step 2: Get the Shrine Sensor

Robbie will ask to meet you in Hateno Village , where you’ll continue the questline at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab on the hill.

We have a full guide on how to get the Shrine Sensor here . We also have detailed directions for getting to Hateno here .

the travel medallion totk

Step 3: Head to the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab (due northeast) to unlock the Travel Medallion

Here’s where the Travel Medallion quest actually starts . Robbie tasks you with going to the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab (the exact location can be found on the map above) to pick up the “prototype” for the Medallion, which will unlock the mechanic.

After attempting the enter the lab, Yiga Clan members will immediately attack you. Go after the smaller archer enemy first, then focus on the larger brute: dodging its attacks and using the flurry rush ability to take it down quickly. Enter the lab and acquire the Yiga Armor, then open the chest to acquire the Travel Medallion prototype.

Go back to Robbie in Hateno and turn the quest in. Ding! You’ll get a Travel Medallion.

the travel medallion totk

How to use the Travel Medallion, and how to remove it

To use the Travel Medallion, all you need to do is open your inventory (+) and select “key items.” Move the cursor so you’re pointing at the blue Travel Medalion icon (pictured above), then select it. Select “place” to put it directly on the ground. It’ll look just like the icon. Congrats!

To return to that spot, you just need to open up the map, find your Travel Medallion, and select “travel” to teleport there. If you want to remove it, select it on the map and press “collect Medallion.” Note that Medallions can be placed basically anywhere in the game, even in the skies and in the depths. Of course, you can upgrade it two more times to add more maximum portal slots.

How to upgrade the Travel Medallion

To upgrade the Travel Medallion, you just need to record Skyview Tower data: which is found at the Skyview Towers themselves after you unlock them. Robbie will provide upgrades for 10 towers (two charges of the MedallIon) and  15 towers (three charges). Speak to Robbie at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab after you hit each milestone to acquire the upgrade.

Luckily for you, we have a full tower location guide here !

Clash Royale: Best Decks For Goblin Party Hut Event

Days gone dev apologizes to fans for "continuously getting fed false hope," confirms new ip in development, i hope elden ring is fromsoftware's last open-world soulsborne title for a while, quick links, how to obtain the travel medallion, how to unlock the other two travel medallions, how to use the travel medallion.

The Kingdom of Hyrule is massive. With the new addition of the Sky Islands and The Depths within The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom , it can take forever to cross long distances on the map. Even with fast travel locations, sometimes, there is somewhere you wish you could get to quicker.

RELATED: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - How To Exchange Heart Containers For Stamina Vessels

One way that you can solve this dilemma is by unlocking the Travel Medallions. These will allow you to place them down anywhere (the surface, The Depths, or the Sky Islands) and fast travel to them at any time.

If you want to obtain the Travel Medallion, first, you will need to obtain the quest "Hateno Village Research Lab" from Robbie at Lookout Landing . He will ask you to meet him at his old lab in Hateno Village.

Once there, speak to Robbie, and he will tell you about the Travel Medallion. It allows you to place it anywhere and fast travel to it later. However, he cannot help you. His prototype for the Travel Medallion is back at the Akkala Research Lab . The only problem is that it has been taken over by the Yiga Clan.

Traveling to the area and walking up the path to the Akkala Research Lab can be dangerous. There are a lot of Monsters that you will cross along your journey.

Once you reach the research lab, you will see signs everywhere saying it is now a Yiga Clan hideout. Once you walk up to the front door and interact with it, you will be ambushed by two Yiga Clan members . Remember, if they disappear, look for the red glowing area. This indicates where they will appear next.

After defeating them, you will find a chest inside the research lab; open it up to obtain the Travel Medallion Prototype. You can also find the Yiga Clan Armor in this location.

With the Travel Medallion Prototype in hand, you're ready to head back to the Hateno Village Research Lab and report back to Robbie.

RELATED: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom – How To Get The Dark Armor Set & The Depths Armor Set

Once you return to Robbie, he will mention that he believes he can upgrade your Travel Medallion to feature two more. However, he needs you to do him a favor first.

In order to obtain your second Travel Medallion, you must visit 10 of the Skyview Towers around Hyrule . These are the large towers that act as fast-travel locations and allow you to fill in your map. If you want your third Travel Medallion, you must find all of these Skyview Towers.

Once you have completed that, Robbie will be surprised. He will go ahead and upgrade your Travel Medallion.

After you have obtained your Travel Medallion, you can use it right away to mark any place as a fast travel location.

All you need to do is go to the Key Items portion of your inventory . Once there, find the Travel Medallions and select them. It will then ask you if you would like to place them. Once they are placed, you'll have a new fast-travel location!

Since its introduction in The Master Trials DLC in Breath Of The Wild players have found Travel Medallion to be a lot more useful in exploring the vast lands of Hyrule.

How to Get Travel Medallion Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

Home » Zelda Tears of the Kingdom » How to Get Travel Medallion Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

The Travel Medallion was one of the more popular items in Zelda Breath of the Wild. Using this item, you could create a fast travel point that Link could instantaneously warp to at any time. And, good news, the Travel Medallion is also available in Zelda TotK as well. Also, unlike in the previous game – in which you could only obtain this item through a DLC – this isn’t the case in Tears of the Kingdom. That said, you’re no doubt wondering how to get the Travel Medallion in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom . Here’s how you will be able to get this fast travel item.

How to Get Travel Medallion Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

How to Get Travel Medallion in Zelda TotK

The Travel Medallion won’t be available right from the start. In fact, it will be a long time before you get it. Also, needless to say, there will be spoilers for some of the game’s plot and quests (though we will try our best to keep it as vague as possible), so if you want to go into the game as spoiler-free as possible, suffice to say that – you will unlock it later on in the game. From this point on, there will be spoilers.

The first thing that you will need to do is to complete one of the four main story quests. After that you will also need to finish the initial depths investigation for Josha – the one where you will take a picture of a statue. This will lead you to the Great Abandoned Central Mine in the Depths, where you will unlock the Autobuild ability . Josha will ask that you use this new ability to make a balloon for Robbie. Now go to Lookout Landing and talk to Robbie there. He is going to go back to the Hateno Village Ancient Lab. Make your way to that lab to unlock the Sheikah Pad’s Shrine Senor ability.

Robbie will offer to upgrade your pad, and one of these upgrades is the Travel Medallion itself. To do this, he needs you to go to his home in the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab and get the Travel Medallion Prototype from there. This will begin the “Presenting: The Travel Medallion!” side adventure. Travel there, and get ready for a fight against two tough mobs. Head inside, and you will find a chest with the Travel Medallion Prototype. Return to Robbie, who will give you the real, working Travel Medallion.

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Shouldn't Be the End for Some Fan-Favorite Characters

Gears of war youtube channel has been 'purged', pokemon studio releases new game that's not pokemon, quick links, how to begin robbie's questline in tears of the kingdom, where to find the travel medallion prototype in tears of the kingdom, how to use and upgrade the travel medallion.

Originally added through Breath of the Wild's expansion pass, the Travel Medallion allowed players to place a single fast-travel waypoint anywhere on the map, which Link could return to anytime. In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom , the medallion has been worked into one of the main side plots.

In order to get the improved Travel Medallion, Link will first have to locate the Travel Medallion Prototype and return it to Robbie, Breath of the Wild 's wacky ancient tech aficionado. This guide will explain how Link can find the prototype and get his hands on one of Tears of the Kingdom 's most useful tools.

RELATED: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - Great Vehicles You Can Make From Scratch

Before he can get his hands on the Travel Medallion Prototype, Link must complete the previous steps in Robbie's questline. To find Robbie, Link must have access to Lookout Landing, available as soon as he descends from the Great Sky Island. Here he will meet Josha, one of Purah's researchers. Working with Josha will eventually lead Link to Robbie's questline.

Robbie's first quest will find Link descending to the Depths, where he will unlock Tears of the Kingdom 's Camera feature . Once that is complete, Robbie will head to the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab (3779, -2123, 0251), just north of Hateno Village.

Here he will offer Link three upgrades to the Purah Pad: Sensor+, Hero's Path Mode, and the Travel Medallion . The first two tasks can be done quickly, especially if players fill their compendium on their own. The Travel Medallion, however, will require Link to complete a slightly bigger quest.

If Robbie does not leave Lookout Landing, Link may need to complete at least one of the four main temples to trigger his exit. The Rito Village quest from "Regional Phenomena" is the most common starting place.

Robbie tells Link he cannot upgrade the Purah Pad until he gets the Travel Medallion Prototype from the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab . The lab is found in the northeastern corner of the map, and Robbie explains that dangerous trespassers have taken it over.

The Akkala Ancient Tech Lab is found at the following coordinates: 4505, 3144, 0245. Technically, Link can head to the lab any time after receiving the "Presenting: The Travel Medallion!" mission. There are several Skyview Towers between Hateno and Akkala, and though it will make it easier for Link to know where he is going, it is not required.

When Link arrives at the tower and attempts to open the door, he'll be met with a Yiga Blademaster and a Yiga Foot Soldier. Once they are dealt with, Link can head inside. Here he'll find a man in Cece apparel , who is startled by Link's approach. His name is Konba, and he has apparently been making the Yiga's outfits, of which he gives Link his own Yiga Amor chest piece.

In the corner of the room, Link will find a stone chest. Open the chest to receive the Travel Medallion Prototype. Return the prototype to Robbie and let him upgrade the Purah Pad.

RELATED: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Proves Why Delays Are A Necessary Evil

To use the Travel Medallion, Link simply needs to choose the place he'd like to travel to, and enter the Key Items menu. Look for the Travel Medallion in the menu, hover over it, and select 'Place.' A blue travel gate will show up below Link, as well as on the map. Link will now be able to fast-travel to this location like any other waypoint.

How to Upgrade the Travel Medallion

When Link first acquires the Travel Medallion, Robbie tells Link that he'll be able to increase the number of travel gates that he can use. He informs Link the upgrade can be performed twice, once when Link acquires ten map data points and again when he acquires 15. This will bring the total number of gates to three.

Map data is acquired each time Link brings a Skyview Tower on . Once he has completed the required amount, simply return to Robbie and he'll perform the upgrade.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now for the Nintendo Switch.

History of stary oskol.

In 1300, there was a village called Ugly on the the territory of the present city. Today, it is one of the districts of Stary Oskol. At that time, the village was part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and was a border crossing point on the border with the Golden Horde.

The settlement of Oskol was founded by Russian Tsar Fyodor Ioanovich’s order (Ivan’s the Terrible son) to protect the southern borders of the Russian kingdom in 1593. The bulk of the population were peasants and the military.

In 1617, the town was burned by the Poles. In 1625, 1642 and 1677, the Crimean Tatars approached Stary Oskol, but could not capture it. The town was renamed Stary Oskol (meaning Old Oskol) in 1655, when the town of Tsaryov-Alexeyev, located down the river, was renamed Novy Oskol (New Oskol). Fortifications of the town existed until the 18th century.

More Historical Facts…

Gradually, Stary Oskol turned into peaceful, commercial and merchant town - the center of an agricultural district. Industrial production was represented mainly by enterprises on processing agricultural products.

In 1780, the town got its coat of arms. In 1784, Stary Oskol like most Russian towns of that time was rebuilt according to a new plan signed by Empress Catherine II. A large number of brick houses were built, mostly two-story buildings. The historic center of Stary Oskol has been preserved to our time.

In the second half of the 19th century, the town had a wide network of schools, libraries, reading rooms, printing, secondary schools. In 1894, construction of the railway began, trade and industry began to develop rapidly.

Until the 1930s, there were eleven Orthodox churches in Stary Oskol. During the Second World War, Stary Oskol was occupied by the Germans from July 2, 1942 to February 5, 1943. In 1954, the city became part of the newly formed Belgorod region.

In the late 1960s - early 1970s, in connection with the active development of the Kursk Magnetic Anomaly (the most powerful iron ore basin in the world), Stary Oskol became a major center of iron and steel industry.

Stary Oskol was declared a city of three top-priority Komsomol construction projects. The largest enterprises: Lebedinsky Mining and Processing Plant, Stoilensky Mining and Processing Plant, Oskolsky Electrometallurgical Plant became not only the city-forming enterprises, but also the largest industrial enterprises of the country. Stary Oskol experienced a new birth.

Today, Stary Oskol is a rapidly developing city, one of the leading mining and metallurgical centers of Russia.
