Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Sticky Frogs are a type of frog that can be found in Tears of the Kingdom, one of the three types of frogs that Link can collect. However, unlike the Hot-Footed Frog and Tireless Frog, cooking a Sticky Frog won’t generate a Hasty Elixir or Enduring Elixir. Instead, it will make it easier for Link to climb during the rain. Players can find Sticky Frogs in the eastern region of Hyrule in Tears of the Kingdom. The blue color and orange legs of the Sticky Frog make them stand out more than the other frogs, but unfortunately, they’ll flee just like any other critter. If players intend on farming them, they’ll want to enhance Link’s stealth.
According to the Sticky Frogs entry in the Hyrule Compendium, they can be found in the West Necluda and the Lanayru Great Spring. However, players will have better luck farming Sticky Frogs at Green Village, Outskirt Stable, and south of East Reservoir Lake. Sticky Frogs aren’t triggered by weather conditions, so they can be found at any time. Before farming them, players will want to make sure they have Sneaky Elixirs or stealth-enhancing armor, like the Stealth Set from Kakariko Village.
Sticky Frogs, as their name indicates, like to stick to walls. They will normally be found on the sides of cliffs and usually out of reach, too. It might not be a bad idea for players to have more than one stamina wheel so that Link doesn’t tire out too quickly while climbing. Another thing players will want to do is register the Sticky Frog to the Hyrule Compendium and the Sensor+. Both of these are unlocked after getting the Camera and the Auto-Build Ability, and then helping Robbie at Hateno Ancient Tech Lab. As long as the compendium registers the Sticky Frog, it can be tracked on the map screen with Y-button.
Kakariko Village is the best place to farm Sticky Frogs. They’ll appear on the mountain sides along the Green Village East Road. Other Sticky Frog spawns are on the mountains behind the Kakariko Village general store. Players that head west may stumble upon the Outskirt Stable. Each Stable in Tears of the Kingdom has a well that Link can explore. The Outskirt Stable Well is home to three Sticky Frogs. Lastly, players can find Sticky Frogs in the Lanayru Great Spring area. There’s a Sticky Frog by the East Reservoir Lake’s waterfall at coordinates. However, farming Sticky Frogs at the Lanayru Great Spring may be trickier because of the nearby monsters.
Sticky Frogs can be cooked with a Monster Part to create a Sticky Elixir. This will give Link slip-resistance when climbing wet or icy surfaces. Sticky Elixirs can be crafted from Sticky Frogs or Sticky Lizards. Between the two of them, the Sticky Frogs have the stronger effects. Another way to use Sticky Frogs is to save them for armor upgrades. Players will need x5 Sticky Frogs for each piece of the Froggy Set. They’re required from leveling up the Froggy Set to level 3.
In conclusion, Sticky Frogs can be extremely useful in Tears of the Kingdom. With their unique properties and benefits, players should make sure to farm them and use them wisely.

Green Village
Kakariko Village is the best place to farm Sticky Frogs. They’ll appear on the mountain sides along the Green Village East Road (1953, -1115, 0132).

Outskirt Stable Well
Players that head west may stumble upon the Outskirt Stable. Each Stable in Tears of the Kingdom has a well that Link can explore. The Outskirt Stable Well (-1429, -1293, 0012) is home to three Sticky Frogs. These frogs won’t be stuck to walls, so walk slowly (crouch if necessary) or shoot them down.
Lanayru Great Spring
Lastly, players can find Sticky Frogs in the Lanayru Great Spring area. There’s a Sticky Frog by the East Reservoir Lake’s waterfall (south) at coordinates 3329, -0305, 0022.

Where to Use Sticky Frogs?
Sticky Frogs can be cooked with a Monster Part to create a Sticky Elixir. This will give Link slip-resistance when climbing wet or icy surfaces. Sticky Elixirs can be crafted from Sticky Frogs or Sticky Lizards. Between the two of them, the Sticky Frogs have the stronger effects.
Another way to use Sticky Frogs is to save them for armor upgrades. Players will need x5 Sticky Frogs for each piece of the Froggy Set. They’re required from leveling up the Froggy Set to level 3. Since the Set Bonus is granted to Link when an armor set reaches level 2, players may not feel the need to expand on the Froggy Set. However, those that intend on maxing out all their armor will want to reserve some of the Sticky Frogs for upgrading this particular set.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available for Nintendo Switch.
