What is the easiest way to get Dinraal scale? ›

Dinraal's Scales can be obtained by shooting the red spirit Dinraal with an arrow in any location on its body, besides the mouth, horn or claws.

Dinraal generally appears between 11:00 PM and 5:00 AM.

Dinraal's Scale is essential for upgrading the Fierce Deity Armor Set at Great Fairy Fountains and is useful for weapon fusions. When fused with weapons and shields, Dinraal's Scale increases attack power and burns monsters with fiery attacks and shield parries.

Dinraal spawns 9:00 AM, 1:00 PM, or 11:00 PM from the Eastern sky and is best attacked from the southern cliffs above the skeleton.

I picked this specific patch of the upper Eldin mountain range, the East Deplian Badlands, and chose that as my campfire point. At 5 AM, Dinraal appears in the east, around the Eldin Great Skeleton, and heads west.

Go to the Maag No'rah Shrine (Accross the canyon from Hebra Tower), camp out until night. Wait at the canyon until around 11 or midnight - Dinraal will show up and be low enough to glide over and snipe any part of him.

Best to aim for the long body of Dinraal below the Spikes on its back. The attack/arrow specifically needs to hit either of Dinraal's Horns. These Horns will glow brightly if a Material is available to be grabbed and it will be very easy to see. Hitting any of Dinraal's Talons, Claws, or Feet.

Dinraal, the Great Fire Spirit Dragon, patrols the skies on the north side of Death Mountain, and coasts along the upper edge of Hyrule past the Akkala Tech Lab all the way to the Thyphlo Ruins in the Great Hyrule Forest.

Dinraal is fairly routine in how it appears. To find Dinraal, you'll need to fast travel to Shae Loya Shrine, just South of Tabantha Bridge Stable. Once you've reached the shrine, head over to the stable and rest in a bed or outside at the camp fire. You'll want to rest until morning.

Dinraal's Scales are mostly found in the locations: Near Drenan Highlands Chasm, Ulri Mountain Skyview Tower, Typhlo Ruins Skyview Tower. Look around these locations to farm for Dinraal's Scales.

Where is the easiest place to find Dinraal? ›

Location. Climb on the cliffs just south of the Eldin Great Skeleton for a good starting point. Wait for the updraft then fly north and aim at the dragon part you are after with your bow and arrow. An alternative is to wait on the Tabantha Great Bridge at 5:00 (morning).

Dinraal, the red Dragon, can initially be found to the north of Eldin Mountains, around the Eldin Great Skeleton early in the morning (8-9am). It might not spawn if you're waiting directly in its flight path, mind, so move to the side a little if you're not seeing Dinraal at the times mentioned above.

Dinraal's Scales can be collected from the Dragon, Dinraal, who typically flies around the Eldin Mountains or Tabantha Frontier. Link can shoot anywhere along the main body that is not the horns, teeth, or claws to receive the Scales.

Dinraal's Claws can be collected from the Dragon, Dinraal, who typically flies around the Eldin Mountains and the Tabantha Frontier. Link must shoot its hands with an Arrow. The Claws in question will fall onto the land in the form of light. Dinraal's Claws that are used in a Cooking Pot will make Dubious Food.

Dinraal takes around 2 in-game days to complete its flight path, both on the surface and in the Depths, and it spends about a day in each, which is why sometimes it can feel like Dinraal is mysteriously absent from the overworld.
