Falcon Bows are highly refined Bows made by master Rito craftsmen.[1] These Bows belong to the Rito Gear equipment archetype.[4] They have a quick rate of fire, which Rito warriors favor for use in aerial combat.[1]

Falcon Bows are found both in Treasure Chests and in the hands of Enemies on the Tabantha Frontier and in the Hebra Mountains. During the "Divine Beast Vah Medoh" Main Quest, Teba will allow Link to take a Swallow Bow he has modified from a nearby Treasure Chest for their fight against Divine Beast Vah Medoh.[5]

The following amiibo have a chance to spawn a Treasure Chest containing a Falcon Bow when they are scanned with the amiibo Rune

Being made of wood, Falcon Bows will burn if they are exposed to Fire or equipped in a Scorching Climate. In addition, they will float if they are dropped in Water, and they will not conduct Electricity or attract Lightning during Thunderstorms. Finally, they cannot be picked up with the Magnesis Rune.
