Catching Poes can be tricky and deadly, so make sure you know what
you're doing.
1) Poes will only appear at night (unless they are in a dungeon or
cave).
2) Poes can only be seen when in wolf form and using your "sense"
ability. You can spot a Poes lantern when in human form, but you cant
fight him.
3) POES ARE DEADLY! They carry scythes and take away one heart per
hit.
4) Poes can fly, giving them an advantage. Use jump attacks for the
best effect.
5) Poes can be found at any point in the game, even before talking to
Jovai... provided you have the items to reach them, which you wont
except for a few.
6) After hitting the Poe a couple of times, it will fall to the ground
and a black orb will rise out of its chest. Z-target the orb and hit
A. You will leap into the air, land on the Poe, and rip out its soul
(the black orb). If you don't, the Poe will come back to life after a
few seconds and the battle will begin anew.
Ok, I think that covers it. Now lets kill some Poes!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------- 2)- Poe Soul locations -----------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
REMINDER: IT MUST BE NIGHT TIME FOR A POE TO APPEAR (UNLESS IN A
DUNGEON OR CAVE). KAKARIKO VILLAGE AND CASTLE TOWN ARE NO EXCEPTION.
--------------------- 2.1)- Ordona Province --------------------------
P.1: Faron Woods: In the swamp area, transform into a wolf and follow
Mindas lead to a big hollow stump. The Poe is right there, cant miss
it.
--------------------- 2.2)- Faron Province ---------------------------
P.2: Hyrule Field (Faron): This Poe floats over a cliff just north of
a shallow body of water.
P.3: Sacred Woods: This Poe floats over one of the skull kids hiding
places: on the large stump. You have to pass under a water fall and
climb over some roots to get him.
P.4: Temple of Time: After optioning the Doman Rod, in the room with
the giant scale, use the small statues to lift you up high enough to
reach the grapple point in the middle of the ceiling. From there, use
your spinner to reach the ledge above the scale. The Poe should be
right in front of you.
P.5: Temple of Time: On the east side of the third floor there is a
Poe behind a gold gate. Use the Domain Rod to guide a small statue on
the wall behind the gate to the switch on the floor. Attack the Poe
once the gate opens.
P.6: Temple of Time: Use the Domain Rod to move the statue in the
opening chamber. A Poe lantern will fly out from behind the wall.
P.7: Sacred Grove: Go east from the main temple ground to where you
first fought the Skull Kid. Destroy the rock in the middle of the room
to reveal a Poe.
P.8: Sacred Grove: After completing the Temple of Time, return to
where you found the Master Sword. There is a Poe floating near the
pedestal.
--------------------- 2.3)- Eldin Province ---------------------------
P.9: Hyrule Field (Eldin): There is a Poe near a tree on the hill just
east (of the south side) of the Kakariko Gorge Bridge.
P.10: Lantern Cave (1): The Lantern Cave is south-west from the
Kakariko Gorge warp point in Eldin. You should see a bombable wall
along the cliff. The Poe is in the northwest section of the cave.
P.11: Kakariko Village: This Poe is at the West end of Kakariko
Village Graveyard.
P.12: Kakariko Village: go to Kakariko Village Graveyard, transform
into a wolf, then push the gravestone in the southeast corner of the
graveyard.
P.13: Kakariko Village: Remember that building you blew up when
looking for the Tears of Light? Yeah, go back there (from inside Barns
Bomb Shop, climb to the top and exit through the door in the roof,
then follow the cliff south) and you'll see a Poe.
P.14: Kakariko Village: From the blown up building (see above), turn
about and follow the zig-zaging path to the very top of the cliff.
There is a Poe waiting for you there (careful not to fall off!).
P.15: Death Mountain: After obtaining the Clawshot, return to the
Howling Stone on Death Mountain. From there, look north to see some
moss hanging from a ledge. Clawshot onto it and follow the high ground
south. Eventually, you will see a Poe (careful not to fall off
again!).
P.16: Hidden Village: This Poe is on a balcony (what's with Poes and
high places?) on a house in the villages northeast corner. There is a
net you can clawshot onto on the west side of the house. Follow the
ledge around and claim another Poe.
--------------------- 2.4)- Lanayru Province -------------------------
P.17: Castle Town: This Poe is in Jovani's house. Simple enough,
right?
P.18: Hyrule Field (Lanyru): Use the Castle Town portal. From there go
south. You'll find the Poe in the ancient amphitheater.
P.19: Zora's Waterfall: Warp to Zora's domain and ride the waterfall
down. Now turn west and swim over to the small patch of land. Follow
the incline around until you spot the Poe.
P.20: Zora's Domain: From the lake at Zora's waterfall, transform into
a wolf and travel to the east embankment. With Mindas help travel up
the side of the cliff. Somewhere along the way you will met up with a
Poe.
P.21: Zora's River: Warp to Upper Zora's River. There is a small patch
of land at the south end. Swim there to claim another soul.
P.22: Hyrule Field (Lanayru): There is a haunted bridge at the north
end of Hyrule Field. De-haunt it.
P.23: Hyrule Field (Lanayru): From the haunted bridge (above) travel
east. There should be a ring of tall grass near some trees. Use your
senses and dig there. The Poe is inside the cave.
P.24: Hyrule Field (Lanayru): Same as P.23
P.25: Hyrule Field (Lanayru): Take Castle Towns south exit. Continue
heading south to confront another Poe.
P.26: Hyrule Field (Lanayru): Take Castle Towns east exit. The Poe
hovers over the bridge before you.
--------------------- 2.4.1)- Lake Hylia -----------------------------
P.27: From hyrule Field (Faron), take the North entrance into lake
hylia. From there, follow the winding path and keep an eye on the
western cliff. Eventually, you should see some bombalbe rocks. Destroy
them with bomb arrows to reveal clawshot targets. Clawshot around
until you come to a chest, and a Poe.
P.28: Lake Hylia: This Poe is at the south-west end of lake hylia.
You'll see his lantern floating over a small patch of land just south
of the waterfall.
P.29: Lake Hylia: warp to the Lake Hylia Warp point. Now go west along
the path, then turn and look south. You should see a Poe lantern
floating over one of the ledges. Carefully navigate the series of
jumps and claim your prize.
P.30: Lake Hylia: In the southeast corner of Lake Hylia is a tall
tower on a ledge. At the top of the tower (again with the high
places!) is your next target.
P.31: Lake Hylia: This Poe is on a cliff on Lake Hylia's north wall
just below the cabin. Take a ride in the cannon up to the cabin, then
ride by Cucco to the ledge (take a sharp U-turn just after clearing
the cabin).
P.32: Take Fabi's Flight-by-Fowl challenge and try to land on the
prize platform with the Poe (you should be able to see his lantern).
P.33: Lantern Cave (2): South of the Howling Stone in Lake Hylia is
another Lantern Cave. This one is much longer then the first. As such,
make sure you stock up on bombs, lantern oil, arrows, and a bottled
fairy never hurt. But because its bigger, it can house more Poes;
three to be exact. Follow the cave from start to finish and bomb
everything in your way to claim all three souls that are scattered
throughout the cave.
P.34: Lantern Cave (2): Same as P.33
P.35: Lantern Cave (2): Same as P.33
--------------------- 2.5)- Desert Province --------------------------
P.36: Gerudo Desert: After landing Gerudo Desert (from the cannon in
Lake Hylia), go south until you see a large rock. A Poe is waiting
there.
P.37: Gerudo Desert: This Poe is located at the middle-southeast side
of the Desert. You should see a mound of sand with a large stone
structure on top. The stone structure is the West Eldin Bridge, so
warp it to its proper location. Afterwards, return to the same spot.
There is a Poe waiting for you there.
P.38: Cave of Ordeals: The creator you created (see above) opens the
passage to the Cave of Ordeals. The first Poe is located on the 17th
floor.
P.39: Cave of Ordeals: (see above) 31st floor.
P.40: Cave of Ordeals: (see above) 44th floor.
P.41: Gerudo Desert: There is a tree on a sand bluff at the middle-
northeast side of the Desert (it should appear as a small outlined
figure on the warp map). Grapple to the tree with the clawshot. You
should now see a Poe hovering over three skulls nearby.
P.42: Gerudo Desert: In the exact same spot as P.41 was located, use
your senses to spot a place to dig. Dig to uncover an underground cave
where your next mark lays in wait.
P.43: Gerudo Desert: Same as P.42.
P.44: Gerudo Desert: There are narrow, sandy paths between the main
Desert and the enemy encampment in the northeast. Follow the path to
the east to find a Poe.
P.45: Gerudo Desert: After you defeat King Bulblin (the axe wielding
goblin thing), return to the scene of the battle to fight your next
soul carrying Poe.
P.46: Gerudo Desert: When you're walking up the step toward the
Arbiter's Grounds entrance, go east at the mezzanine. Just ahead
should be another Poe.
P.47: Arbiter's Grounds: The next four souls are key to the story line
and function as mini-bosses. Capturing them means completing the
Arbiter's Grounds Temple. Hence, if you want to know there location,
see a game guide not a Poe guide.
P.48: Arbiter's Grounds: Same as P.47
P.49: Arbiter's Grounds: Same as P.47
P.50: Arbiter's Grounds: Same as P.47
----------------------- 2.6)- Peak Province---------------------------
P.51: Snowpeak Area: A Poe hovers near a tree in the southern-central
area between the frozen lake and the warp point (near the bend on the
map)
P.52: Snowpeak Area: A little farther up the road from P.51 is another
Poe near a large rock.
P.53: Explore the Reekfish-scent area between P.51 and the cave at the
top. Like P.51, this Poe haunts a tree.
P.54: Snowpeak Cave: In the cave between the Snowpeak Area and
Snowpeak Summit, there is a Poe behind a wall of ice. Use the ball and
chain to set it "free."
P.55: Snowpeak Area: Go south after exiting the Snowpeak Ruins to find
a large mound of snow... You guessed it, the Poe is on top. There
should be a winding path along the edge of the mound... and try not to
fall off.
P.56: Snowpeak Ruins: Right as you enter you should see a lantern
floating in the foyer. Make it less floaty.
P.57: Snowpeak Ruins: Just inside the entrance, you will see 6 suits
of armor (three on each side). One of them hides a Poe. Time to play
hide-and-seek with a ball-and-chain.
P.58: Snowpeak Ruins: In the southwestern room on the second floor use
your ball and chain to break the ice barrier on the west wall. A Poe
is in the now-exposed alcove.
------------------------ 7)- City in the Sky -------------------------
P.59: City in the Sky: A Poe is hiding on the east wing of the third
floor in the City in the Sky. From the northern entrance, se the
flying plants to hover over two walls, then grab onto a south-flying
plant. Wile flying, grab onto one more plant and drop to face the Poe.
P.60: City in the Sky: There's a Poe near the room with the Big Key.
Climb ivy as a human and walk ropes as a wolf to reach the east side
of the fourth floors central room. You'll find the Poe near a treasure
chest on a precarious platform.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------- 3)- Jovai --------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jovai. The reason you go through the trouble of tracking down 60 dead
guys.
Jovai's house is located in West Castle Town, down the ally just
before the one that leads to Telma's Bar. You first encounter Jovai on
your way out of Hyrule Castle after completing the Lakebed Temple
(you'll see). After this first encounter, you can enter his house by
going to his front door, transforming into a wolf, then digging near
the wall to the right of the door.
Now, down to business. After you collect 20 Poe souls, visit Jovai and
he will give you a bottle with Fairy Tears inside. If you collect 60
Poe souls, he gives you 200 rupees then leaves his house. Go to
Telma's bar to find him sulking in the corner. Talk to him, then
return to his house and talk to his cat. His cat will give you another
200 rupees. Leave Castle Town, come back, talk to his cat, earn 200
rupees. Rinse and repeat as much as you like.
