Tears of the Kingdom: How to fuse weapons and increase durability

One method you can use to increase weapon durability in Tears of the Kingdom is fusing. You’ll unlock the ability to fuse when you progress through the shrines on Great Sky Island at the start of the game.

If you fuse something with your melee weapons, it will increase the weapon’s durability. For example, adding a stone to your weapon will increase how long you can use it, and also allow you to smash through heavy rocks.

When you combine two weapons together with Fuse, you’re essentially combining their stats into one weapon. If you fuse a wooden stick to a spear you’ll increase its damage and durability. The same goes for all kinds of combinations of weapons.

You can also destroy fused materials once your weapon goes into the red, which means it’s about to break. Destroying the attached material and fusing something new will give it brand-new durability.
