Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom: Dampé's Automatons - Complete List And How To Build

Dampé is one of a handful of returning characters appearing in Echoes of Wisdom. Instead of tending to the graveyards or building dungeons, he's got a very different function here.

In this guide, we've got a list of all Automatons and how to unlock them, how to complete all of Dampé's Side Quests, and how to access Dampé Studio.

For a list of all Side Quests available in Echoes of Wisdom, make sure to consult our complete list.

All Automatons & How to Unlock

To unlock all six Automatons, you'll need to complete a series of Side Quests which require you to find either one or two pieces of inspiration for Dampé. These are usually an item that you can only get through another Side Quest and a Monster Echo.

Below, we'll be listing all of the Side Quests you get from Dampé, along with what you need to create each Automaton.

Automaton Engineer Dampé

Automaton Unlock: Techtite

Required items & Echoes:

• Tektite Echo (any kind) - Hyrule Field, specifically to the west of Hyrule Castle Town, in a canyon-like area.
• Mothula Echo - You'll find the Mothula either in the Gerudo Desert or inside the Gerudo Sanctum Dungeon.

Explosions Galore

Automaton Unlock: Toktorok

Required items & Echoes:

• Octorok Echo - Octoroks are everywhere in Hyrule, but the first place you'll find them is Suthorn Prairie, in a pond in the northwest area, close to some ruins. You will also find some Octoroks in Hyrule Field, Lake Hylia, and Jabul Waters — anywhere where there's a lot of water.
• Firework Echo - Finish The Rift on Eldin Volcano Main Quest, then complete The Fireworks Artist Side Quest to get the Firework Echo

Performance Artist

Automaton Unlock: Gizmol

Required items & Echoes:

• Zol Echo (any kind) - Zols are everywhere in the early game, but the basic green Zol is one of the first Echoes you should get, on Suthorn Beach
• Prismatic Music Box - After completing Impa's Gift, ride your white horse to Hyrule Ranch and compete in the Horse Races. You need to beat the Middle Course in under 25 seconds.

Endless Stomach

Automaton Unlock: High-Teku Baba

Required items & Echoes:

• Deku Baba Echo (any kind) - The first place you'll find the Deku Baba is in the Suthorn Ruins, but you'll encounter them in the Jabul Ruins and Faron Temple as well.
• Steel Trap - Speak to Acorn Guy west of Kakariko Village in Hyrule Field — beat his record and you'll get the Steel Trap

Chop 'Em In Two

Automaton Unlock: Roboblin

Required items & Echoes:

• Sword Moblin Echo (any kind) - Sword Moblins are very common foes, and you'll find them at almost every single Moblin camp in Hyrule. You'll get a Lv. 1 Echo very early, though, in Suthorn Forest.
• Heirloom Katana - Beat Six Slumber Dojo challenges at Kakariko Village

Get Rich Quick

Automaton Unlock: Goldfinch

Required items & Echoes:

• Crow Echo - The Crows are guarding the entrance to the Gerudo Desert. They're in the canyon opening before you hit the desert proper. You'll also find one right at the start of the Automaton Engineer Dampé Side Quest
• Golden Fan - Beat the Radiant Seed stage of the Mango Rush challenge at the Oasis

Where is Dampé?

The first time you encounter Dampé will be in the second half of the game — that's after you've (unsurprising spoiler!) saved Hyrule Castle Town from the giant rift and found the King of Hyrule.

Dampé will be found just north of Hyrule Ranch, arguing with a crow. After getting close, you'll activate the Automaton Engineer Dampé Side Quest.

Defeat the crow and Dampé will thank you and tell you to swing by his house later. He'll mark it on the map for you.

Where is Dampé Studio?

Dampé's house is found in Eastern Hyrule Field, right below Hebra Mountain.

To get there, head east from Hyrule Castle Town and follow the path to the northeast past the field of boulders. Keep heading north from here, then when you reach the Moblin camp, go east. Follow the grassy area down and around and eventually, you'll reach Dampé's house — known as Dampé Studio.

What are Automatons?

Automatons are basically mechanical monsters in Echoes of Wisdom that function a bit like Echoes. They're essentially a free body that you can send out.

They can fight other enemies, or you can use them to get around, just like all your other Echoes. Think of them as a free Echo. To call them out, press 'Left' on the d-pad and cycle through them in a menu similar to your Echoes.

How many Automaton are there?

In total, there are six different Automaton to unlock.

You'll need to bring Dampé the different components before you can use them, but once he's built one, you'll never need to rebuild it again.

How do I fix a broken Automaton?

If your Automaton breaks out in the field, then you'll need to bring it back to Dampé to fix.

To fix an Automaton, Dampé will need you to pay with either Rupees or Monster Stones.
