Hyrule Warriors: Difference between revisions

===Weak Point Smashes===

After certain attacks, some enemies will become vulnerable to counterattacks, signified by a Weak Point gauge that appears before their heads. Attack while the gauge is visible to reduce it. Once it is empty, the warrior will perform a powerful Weak Point Smash.

===Special Attacks===

{{main|Special Attack}}

Defeating enemies, picking up Force Fragments, levelling up, or using potions fills the [[Special Attack]] gauge. When the gauge is full, press {{HW Button|special}} to perform a powerful Special Attack. This triggers a brief cutscene-like sequence during which nearby enemies are frozen in place while the warrior attacks them. Certain badges add to the Special Attack gauge, allowing up to three consecutive Special Attacks. Defeating enemies with a Special Attack does not fill the Special Attack gauge.

===Focus Spirit===

The Magic gauge is filled using Magic Jars. Press {{Wii U|R}} when the gauge is full to use the Focus Spirit technique. This will temporarily increase the warrior's speed and attack power. At the end of its duration, the warrior will perform a powerful attack. One can press {{HW Button|special}} to end the effect early and perform a different attack which forces enemies' weak point gauges to show.

===Items===

Press {{Wii U|ZR}} to use the currently equipped item. To switch items, use Left and Right on the D-Pad or use the GamePad's touch screen.

===Item Power-Ups===

Sometimes defeated enemies drop item power-ups which enable the use of enhanced versions of Link's items. For example, the player may throw a giant bomb with a larger blast radius. The power-up lasts a certain amount of time, after which items return to normal.

===Badge Market===

{{Main|Badge Market}}

The Badge Market allows you to improve warriors by creating Attack, Defense, or Assist badges. Creating a badge requires certain materials gained by defeating certain enemies alongside a small fee in rupees. While the badges are mostly the same for each character, they require different materials.

===Training Dojo===

{{main|Training Dojo}}

The Training Dojo allows you to level up characters by paying rupees. The max level you may choose is from the highest level character you already have.

===Apothecary===

{{Main|Apothecary}}

Such as more stars(damage), more slots on found weapons, more weapons in general, more rank to weapons dropped, weapons with empty slots, more attack (ATK) skills or Element (ELE) skills or Versus (VS) skills or Bonus (BON) skills or KO skills or Special (SP) skills.

===Smithy===

{{Main|Smithy}}

You chose one weapon with at least one vacant slot in it; as a base weapon. Then you pick one skill from another weapon to put on the base weapon.

You may only chose one skill; and it may not be a vacant slot or a skill that has not been unlocked yet. Also you destroy the weapon you chose the skill, not skills, from.
