Poes are one of the most abundant collectibles in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and they can come in handy if players only know what to do with them. Poes can be found scattered throughout the Depths, the underground area of TOTK’s map. The Depths are a harsh, unwelcoming place, requiring ample preparation and clever use of light sources to explore, but finding Poes is the easiest part. They’re depicted as glowing, blue, teardrop-shaped wisps, so they stand out in the dark underground.
If they’re already trekking through the Depths using one of TOTK’s sage abilities to make exploration easier, many players will gather hundreds of these strange wisps without even an inkling as to what they’re good for. The answer for what to do with poes is actually relatively simple but requires players to have interacted with some very unassuming NPCs they might not otherwise have noticed.
Poes can be exchanged for many useful items in TOTK, and most of them aim to make it easier to explore the Depths. Each time Link finds a new Bargainer Statue, a further item will be added to the menu; however, once the new item is added, all Bargainer Statues will offer it. Link can also pay the Bargainer Statue at Lookout Landing 100 Poes to mark one of its brethren’s locations in the Depths, which makes finding the remaining six much easier, if much more expensive. The following is a complete list of the Bargainer Statues’ inventory once all items are unlocked.
*This is a unique item.
Of these, the most worthwhile rewards are certainly the three pieces that make up the Depths armor set: the Hood, the Tunic, and the Gaiters. Wearing even one piece of this set increases Link’s resistance to Gloom, which otherwise decreases his maximum Heart Containers. As with many of TOTK’s armor sets, it can be upgraded with the Great Faries, and wearing the full, upgraded set confers an additional bonus against Gloom elemental attacks. The Dark Armor set gives Link a cool, edgy look, but provides a less practical movement speed boost at night. The Tunic of Memories is a callback to Breath of the Wild, resembling Link’s getup from that game, however, it’s not the most effective piece of armor.
