What do you need the Mayoi signum for? Where to exchange the Mayoi Signum in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom? In the new Zelda TotK you’ll often find items and other objects that you can’t immediately do anything with. In addition to the will-o’-the-wisps, this probably also includes the Mayoi Signum for some players. In this short guide we show where you can get the item and what exactly you can do with it.
Finding Mayoi in Zelda TotK
Anyone who has already explored one or two caves in the new Zelda Tears of the Kingdom will certainly have already met a Mayoi. The Mayois can be found in pretty much every cave and are easy to kill. If you are looking for the locations of the caves where you can find a Mayoi and thereby also get the Mayoi signa, we recommend taking a look at the linked interactive map from mapgenie.io. Search for Bubblefrog and you will be shown the locations of the caves where you can find the cave creature.
The frog-like creature can be killed relatively easily and thereby receives a so-called Mayoi signum. The description says “This faint blue shimmering object was left behind by the mysterious cave creature Mayoi. The sight of it entices you to collect more.” Unfortunately, the description doesn’t really say what the Mayoi Signum can be used for or exchanged for. Since it is not an ingredient for a dish or cooking, you have to be able to exchange it somewhere.
Exchange and hand in Mayoi Signum
The Mayoi Signum can be exchanged with a specific NPC and they are Kilton and Koltin. The two can be found along with their balloon northeast of the Forest Stable across Lake Minsh. You then have to talk to them in front of the entrance to the cave at Lake Minsh and this starts the “Find the Mayoi Signum” quest. Next you have to get the Mayoi Signum from the cave and receive a Bokblin Mask from Kilton.
This completes the quest and starts the follow-up quest “Where is Koltin”. Like Maronus with the Krog seeds, Kilton also changes his position. After you have handed in the first Mayoi Signum to him, you can find him south of the scout post, where you can then exchange the other Mayoi Signa you have collected for various items. It is important that you can only find Koltin at night at the location shown in the screenshot.
The following items can be obtained from Koltin in exchange for the Mayoi Signa
| Object | Mayoi Signa |
|---|---|
| Bokoblin mask | 1 |
| Moblin mask | 2 |
| Hinox toenail (3x) | 2 |
| Ghost robe | 3 |
