Weapons are recurring Items in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2][name reference needed]

Location and Uses[]

Breath of the Wild[]

Weapons are a type of Item in Breath of the Wild. Weapons are Link's main way of defeating Enemies by dealing damage to them directly. Weapons have a set amount of durability and will break when this value reaches zero, dealing twice as much damage as they do so. Many of these follow a simple series of archetypes that often coincide with the names of Bows and Shields. For instance, Traveler's Claymores, Traveler's Spears, and Traveler's Swords compose the Traveler's Gear archetype, alongside Traveler's Bows and Traveler's Shields. Each archetype possesses its own traits, such as boasting high offense at the cost of Durability as is the case with the Royal Guard's Series, or possessing special properties that react to Guardians, such as Guardian Gear which can reflect lasers from Guardians or easily pierce through their defenses.

Separately from these archetypes, Weapons also follow behavioral patterns. There are several main types of weapons, with very few exceptions leaving these groups:

  • One-handed Weapons, such as Swords or simple clubs, which have a medium attack rate and damage stat, can be charged at the cost of Stamina to release a spinning charge attack and can be used in tandem with Shields. One-handed weapons also include two subtypes:
    • Boomerangs, which will fly in a straight line and then return to Link after flying a set distance whenever they're thrown, dealing extra damage. They otherwise perform as regular one-handed Weapons. Link can pick up the Boomerang on its way back, but if he fails to catch it or if it crashes into something, the Boomerang will fall to the floor normally.
    • Rods, which do very little melee damage but are instead mostly used at range. When Link performs an attack or throw with them, an elemental effect will happen in a straight line. They come in three varieties, fire, ice and electric. The Korok Leaf has very similar behavior to Weapons in this category and uses wind, but is strangely considered a two-handed Weapon instead. Charge attacks become a bigger elemental blast instead of a spin.
  • Spears, which boast very high attack speeds and low damage but are mostly notable for their good range, and do a flurry of rapid stabs when Link performs a charge attack.

Apart from a weapon's type, bladed Weapons can cut through Trees while spears and blunt Weapons will not. Heavy two-handed Weapons can disrupt an opponent's balance if they brandish a Shield, allowing for Link to knock their Shield out of their hand and bypass their defenses.

Apart from their melee uses, Link can throw his Weapons at his enemies. When thrown, if a Weapon makes direct contact with an enemy, it will immediately break, guaranteeing that it will deal double damage due to a critical hit. Some Weapon types and exceptions do not follow these rules.

Additionally, all Weapons are made of different materials such as wood, bone, stone, metal, and Ancient Technology. Wood can be burned when exposed to open flames and allows for the user to light it on fire and use it. Wood also burns in Scorching Temperature. Weapons made of wood, bone, or Ancient Technology will float in water. Weapons made from stone or metal will sink in water and the latter can be manipulated with Magnesis and will conduct electricity, drawing Lightning during a Thunderstorm. If Link is electrocuted while wielding any Weapon except for the Master Sword or the One-Hit Obliterator, it will fly from his hands and land on the ground nearby.

Initially, Link can carry up to eight Weapons at a time in his Inventory; however, he can obtain additional slots by giving Korok Seeds to Hestu. Hestu will upgrade Link's Weapon Stash up to 11 times.[3] Link's Weapon Stash will also be upgraded once upon pulling the Master Sword from its Pedestal, allowing Link to carry a maximum of 20 Weapons. If Link takes another Weapon while his Inventory is full, he will drop the Weapon or put it back if it came from a Treasure Chest. Although he does not actually take the Weapon, it will still be identified if it was the first time Link had taken that Weapon. Each Weapon, including duplicates, occupies its own slot in the Inventory.

Weapons can also randomly have modifiers when obtained from Treasure Chests or dropped by enemies, with descriptors such as "Durability Up" and "Long Throw" which denote effects such as increased durability or throwing distance. These Weapons exhibit a shimmering sound and have a golden sparkle when laying on the ground.

Hyrule Warriors[]

For a list of all Weapons, see Weapons in Hyrule Warriors.

In Hyrule Warriors, Weapons are used by all Warriors to defeat Enemies. Weapons can be found in Weapon Bags dropped by Enemies while in-battle, or in Treasure Chests. A Warrior can find new Weapons to use in Treasure Chests after capturing Keeps. Upon finding a new Weapon, it will be known as a Sealed Weapon, which denotes that the Warrior has never found a Weapon of that kind before.[4] If a Warrior has already obtained that kind of Weapon, the Sealed Weapon will appear as a normal Weapon. Once a Weapon Bag is dropped by an Enemy, it can be picked up by Warriors and used in later battles or sold for Rupees in the Smithy (Hyrule Warriors). Weapons that Warriors have picked up will only be kept if the Warrior wins the battle.[5]

Weapon Information[]

Each Weapon has a certain tier that can determine the range of Attack Strength, skill limit, and element the Weapon holds. Most Weapons and their higher tiers can be unlocked in Adventure Mode, mainly after obtaining A Rank in certain battles.[6] The higher the tier of Weapon, the higher base attack strength the Weapon will have, the higher the amount of Skills the Weapon can hold, and the higher amount of Elements the Weapon attains.[6]

Weapons will also have a Star Rating associated with them. This star rating can range from 1 to 5 stars, with 5 being the rarest and 1 being the most common. The star rating determines how high or low the Attack Strength of the Weapon is boosted.[6] Each star rating will boost the Weapons's base Attack Power by 10 percent.[6] The tier determines the general range of Attack Strength, while the star rating determines the exact value.[7] The chance of obtaining higher star rated Weapons can be raised by both using a Weapon with the skill "Stars+" or by making a "Weapon Star 1", "Weapon Star 2", or "Weapon Star 3" Potion in the Apothecary.[8][6]

All Weapons will have an Attack Strength based on the weapons star rating and tier. This value will never change, but can be added on to by adding Skills and leveling up the Warrior in the Training Dojo.[9] The higher the value of the attack strength, the more damage the Weapon will be able to inflict.[7]

Each Weapon a Warrior obtains can hold from 1 to 6 Skills to help the Warrior in battle. Skills can boost the Weapon with Attack Strength, increase Enemy Drops, increase Item power-up duration, and more. Some Skills on Weapons are sealed, or locked, and can only be unlocked after defeating a certain number of Enemies with said Weapon.[10] Sealed Skills are hidden and will only be revealed after either unlocking the Skill or appraising it in the Smithy (Hyrule Warriors). Sealed Skills can be appraised to reveal the Skill effect at the cost of Rupees. The price to appraise the Skill will scale depending on how many KO's needed to unlock the Skill at 10 Rupees per KO.[11] Some Weapons will have a slot for a Skill, but no Skill will be inside. This open slot can be filled by fusing Weapons in the Smithy (Hyrule Warriors). If one Weapon has a Skill while another does not, the Skills can be transferred from one Weapon to another. Doing so will destroy the Weapon that originally had the Skill, and fill in the open slot on the other.[12]

All Weapons will also have an Element assigned to them. Depending on the tier, Weapons may have more than one Element which the Weapon will automatically switch between depending on which Element has a greater effect.[13] The Weapons' Element can cause the Weapon to have different effects when used on the right enemy, or right battle.[14][15] If the Weapons' Element is Fire and used in the correct situation, hitting an Enemy will cause it to explode when it hits the ground, dealing damage to Enemies around it.[16] If the Weapons' Element is Water and used in the correct situation, an Enemy will continue to take damage for a short amount of time after being struck.[17] If the Weapons' Element is Lightning and used in the correct situation, Enemies will take more damage when attacked in the air.[18] If the Weapons' Element is Light and used in the correct situation, the Weapons' Attack Strength will become stronger when the Warrior consecutively hits a group of Enemies but will return to base attack when the Warrior stops attacking.[19] If the Weapons' Element is Darkness and used in the correct situation, the Weapons' Attack Strength will become stronger when the Warrior consecutively hits a single Enemy but will return to base attack when the Warrior stops attacking.[20]

Weapon Usage[]

Weapons can be used to defeat Enemies, cut Grass, and destroy Jars. Weapons can be used by Warriors in different combinations of moves to inflict damage upon Enemies. Depending on what buttons the player presses, the Warrior will do a different set of moves. Warriors will use regular attacks if the player presses the Y button, (Or the B button if the player chose the Zelda Style controls) or will use Combo Attacks if the player presses the X button. (Or the Y button if the player chose the Zelda Style controls)[21] If the player presses the A button (Or the X button if the player chose the Zelda Style controls) the Warrior will use a Special Attack.[21] Special Attacks are powerful attacks that Warriors can use once their Special Attack Gauge is filled. Warriors can raise their Special Attack Gauge by defeating many Enemies.[22] Warriors can use different combinations after the player presses the Combo Attack button after pressing the Regular Attack button any number of times. If the player presses X alone, the Warrior will use a Strong Attack. Some combinations for Warriors' Weapons can only be unlocked after crafting a Badge in the Badge Market.[23][24] Some Skills on Weapons will also improve the Attack Strength of certain combinations of moves.[25][26][27][28][29]

Throughout battles, Warriors can find patches of Grass growing in many places. A Warrior can cut the Grass by using any attack, which can reveal Rupees, Force Fragment, Magic Jars and Hearts. Each Grass cluster will only give the Warrior one Green Rupee, and the Force Fragment, Magic Jars and Hearts will be at their smallest form, with the Hearts only refilling one of the Hearts in the Warriors' Life Gauge, the Force Fragment only filling 33 percent of the Special Attack Gauge, and the Magic Jars only filling 20 percent of the Magic Gauge.

In Keeps, Warriors can find multiple Jars lining the walls of the Keep which the Warriors can destroy with their Weapons. Tan colored Jars will reveal Rupees or Power-Up for the Warriors Items when destroyed. Yellow colored Jars will reveal Force Fragment when destroyed. Green colored Jars will reveal Magic Jars when destroyed, and finally, red colored Jars will reveal Hearts when destroyed.

Cadence of Hyrule[]

Cadence, Link, and Zelda can use a variety of Weapons in Cadence of Hyrule. Broadswords, Spears, and Flails can be used by any of the three. Daggers are only used by Cadence and Zelda, though Link can use Short Sword, which are functionally identical. In addition, each character except for Yves has at least one special Weapon that only they can use.

Most Weapons can be infused by a Great Fairy in exchange for Diamonds. Glass and legendary Weapons cannot be infused. When a Weapon is infused, it will gain a new attribute.

Glass Weapons boast 3 points of damage, but will shatter and disappear if the owner takes damage while wielding them. Legendary Weapons have powerful properties such as multiple infusion effects, different special moves, or even armor-piercing capabilities. There is at least one legendary Weapon for each type of Weapon.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity[]

For a list of all Weapons, see Weapons in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

In Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, as in Hyrule Warriors, playable Warriors can use different weapons. These can be found in-battle and can only be used by a certain Warrior. Each weapon can be upgraded seveal times to increase its attack power until it reaches Level 20.
