The Locations of All The Triforce Shards In Wind Waker HD

In The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD, Nintendo has made numerous changes to the Triforce quest. In the original Wind Waker, the triforce quest was mundane and tedious – forcing the players to collect 8 triforce charts then pay a fortune to get them deciphered by tingle. After all that, using the charts, Link must travel across the ocean to retrieve the shards.

In Wind Waker HD, Aonuma has streamlined the quest reducing the chore of collecting the shards and easily shedding 2 hours of boredom.

After beating, Forsaken Fortress the second time you will be sent the incredible chart through the post box (note: You will need to pay 201 rupees for postage fee). In the original Wind Waker, the Incredible Chart ONLY revealed the location of the Triforce Charts.

Now, the incredible chart reveals the location of 5 shards without the need of deciphering of Triforce charts. Essentially, Nintendo replaced 5 of the charts with Triforce shards. However, players are still required to collect 3 Triforce charts and as well as the ghost ship chart to retrieve the Triforce shard in the ghost ship
