In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake there are presently 10 Big Poes in Hyrule Field. Accumulating all these will give you various rewards in rupees, an Empty Bottle, and lastly, a Gold Rupee reward. But firstly, you need to acquire the Fairy Bow and Epona to be able to hunt down all of them.
Requirements for Finding Big Poes
Make sure that you complete the following steps before you start this side quest:
- Be in Adult Link form when starting the side quest.
- Make the completion of the Forest Temple so that you will get the Fairy Bow.
- Acquire Epona who will help you jump through the lighted patches on the way.
- Prepare empty jars for gathering the Big Poes.
For those who are in need of a quiver for 40 arrows, visiting the Kakariko Village could be an option.
How to Find and Collect Big Poes
Go to Hyrule Field where you will find some glowing spots on land while riding Epona. Jump over the glowing spots using Epona to create a Big Poe.
Take out your Fairy Bow and shoot the Big Poe twice. Once you have killed it, get close to it with an empty bottle to collect it.
When you fill the bottles you have, go to the Big Poe collector found in the guard tower near Castle Town to sell the collected Poes for 30 rupees and 100 points for every Big Poe sold.
The 10 Big Poes can be collected in any order. Having more bottles makes it easier since you won’t have to visit the collector frequently.
