The ball and chain is first discovered in Twilight Princess ' Snowpeak Ruins in the hands of a mini-boss. Once collected, Twilight Princess ' suddenly right-handed Link could use it as a tool to smash obstacles, as well as a weapon against enemies. The ball and chain's great weight gave it a lot of power, dealing heavy damage to enemies with its swings. However, it also weighed Link down, making him move considerably slower compared to when he wields his sword. Its size also enabled him to use it as a shield, making it something of a multipurpose tool in his arsenal. Although not as efficient as the sword in combat, the ball and chain can hold its

The main antagonist of the Zelda series needs no introduction. Fans everywhere have thrown controllers and joycons in frustration over the terrifying threat that is Ganon, from A Link to the Past all the way to breath Of the wild sequel of the W

When the Goddess was reincarnated as Zelda in Skyward Sword , she cleansed herself in two sacred springs to recover her divine memories and power. Notably, the Skyview Spring and Earth Spring tucked away in the Faron and Eldin regions have been theorized to be BOTW ’s Spring of Courage and Spring of Power, respectively. Instead of a Spring of Wisdom to complete the "Triforce," however, Skyward Sword’s Lanayru Desert housed the Temple of Time instead, which allowed Zelda and Impa to pass back in time to the Era of the Goddess so Zelda could recall her divin

Pebblits are smaller versions of one of BOTW 's miniboss monsters, the Talus. Pebblits come in a few different varieties depending on where they're located; Igneo Pebblits can be found in volcanic regions such as Eldin, Frost Pebblits reside in snowy areas such as the Hebra Mountains, and Stone Pebblits are found throughout Hyrule. Each one will drop one piece of ore when defeated, with each variety providing different kinds. Although it might seem like defeating BOTW 's Pebblits is hard work given only a few select weapons can do any damage to them, players can kill them very easily by simply picking them up and throwing them, or by using a Remote Bomb or Bomb Ar

The story of The Legend of Zelda begins long before the events of Skyward Sword , which serves as a prequel to the entire Zelda series. This ancient time was known as the Era of the Goddess Hylia, during which an ancient battle against the demon Demise took place. Hylia nearly fell to Demise and, as such, chose to give up her divinity and be reincarnated as a mortal. While she lost her sacred power, her mortality granted her the ability to wield the Triforce against Demise and seal him away, thus saving her king

Epona is one of the most likely inclusions since the lovable horse appears in most Zelda games, but it's still vital for many fans. The level of importance that Zelda games give Epona also varies. Epona was an optional legendary mount in the original Breath of the Wild and felt like a major part of the game in Ocar

While Mipha is gone for good in the normal Breath of the Wild timeline, it's proven by Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity and Ocarina of Time that timelines in the Zelda series are incredibly flexible. If any of the champions could come back in Tears of Calamity , Mipha would be the best choice. After all, she and Link deserve some sort of happy moment toget

Treasure Octoroks may be BOTW 's most annoying enemy, and for good reason. If players aren't careful when approaching a buried chest, then they might end up fighting an enemy instead of getting treasure. This is irksome enough by itself, but the initial attack by the Octorok also sends them flying backwards, which is severely annoying and can even spell doom if they're near a high ledge, leaving BOTW players regretting their decision to not do a quick check with the Magnesis rune. In addition, the Treasure Octorok is very fast and hard to hit, making it not a challenging foe but certainly a difficult and obnoxious one. They might not be as bad if they were at least good way to farm Rupees, but the amount they drop is negligible and not worth the effort of seeking them out repeate

Once the sequel to Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild _ - tentatively called _Breath of the Wild 2 - comes out, characters from another Zelda game, Twilight Princess , could make an appearance. Which ones, if any, can't be said for certain since there's still so much of the game still shrouded in mystery, however. Breath of the Wild 2 is set to release some time in 2023, so it will be some time before players see whether any characters will ret

There are many different kinds of enemies in BOTW , almost all of which serve Calamity Ganon. The main ones are Bokoblins, Moblins, Chuchus, Octoroks, Lizalfos, Wizzrobes, and Pebblits, in addition to some humanoid enemies like the members of the Yiga Clan. There are also stronger enemies that act as minibosses, such as Lynels, Hinox, Talus, and Molduga. All of them vary in strength and rarity, and BOTW 's Master Mode DLC added a few new variants that can't be found in the main game. When Link vanquishes them, they drop useful items and materials that he can use to upgrade his armor, but once the Blood Moon rises they will return to menace him once ag
