'''Ropes''' are nimble snake enemies that only cause minimal damage when you touch them. They usually attack by dashing forward when you're in sight. Use the sword on them and they'll disappear. They have the honor of being in every 2D Zelda title as well as ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''. Although Ropes don't appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', despite appearing in the prequel, the [[Whip]] resembles them.
'''Ropes''' are recurring enemies in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They usually attack by dashing forward when [[Link]] is in sight. A [[sword]] is an effective weapon to use on them, which in turn causes them to disappear. They only cause minimal damage when touched. Although Ropes do not appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'', despite appearing in the prequel, the [[Whip]] resembles them.


==Appearances==
==''The Legend of Zelda''==
===The Legend of Zelda===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', there are two types of ropes: Red and Flashing, and they can be found in various dungeons. When ropes see Link they rush towards him quite quickly in an effort to injure him. They can easily be defeated with the Sword, but Flashing ropes found in the [[Second Quest]] are four times as strong as the red variation.

===The Adventure of Link===
==''The Adventure of Link''==
In ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'', Ropes act in a similar fashion to [[Octorok|Blue Octoroks]], often spitting [[Boulder|rocks]] at [[Link]]. Some slither along the ground and shoot projectiles both high and low. Red Ropes, only found in the [[Great Palace]], spit fireballs that can only be blocked by the [[Reflect Spell]].
{{main|Aneru}}
In ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'' a similar looking enemy appears known as [[Aneru]]. These are snake like monsters that will shoot either rocks or fireballs out towards Link.


====Game Data====
==''A Link to the Past''==
{| class="wikitable" style="float:left; text-align:center; width:500px;"
Unlike in ''The Legend of Zelda'' and ''The Adventure of Link'', there is only one type of Rope, and they are usually found within various dungeons. When a rope catches sight of Link, it rushes towards him very fast in an effort to injure him. They take approximately two hits to defeat with the regular sword, and they can easily deplete Link's hearts quickly in the beginning of the game as they move very quickly. One of their most iconic appearances takes place early in the game when Link is given two switches to choose between. One will open the door to the Sanctuary, the other will cause Ropes to fall from the ceiling.

==''Link's Awakening''==
These snake-like enemies are constantly moving around the room looking for their enemy. When they see Link, they will dart at him in a straight line. Ropes may be frustrating at first, but they are very easy to predict once used to them. Wait in one spot in the room, near the edge of the wall, or in the corner of the room. When a Rope is darting at Link, face towards it and be ready to give it a single slice with the sword.

==''Four Swords''==
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords|Four Swords]]'', Ropes are snake-like enemies that will charge at Link once they spot him.


===A Link to the Past===
==''The Minish Cap''==
Unlike [[The Legend of Zelda]] and [[The Adventure of Link]] there is only one type of Rope. When a rope see [[Link]] it rushes towards him very fast in an effort to injure him. They can be quite annoying as they take two hits to kill with the regular sword and they can easily deplete your hearts quickly in the beginning in the game as they move very quickly.
Ropes are first encountered within caves in [[Castor Wilds]]. They will move around the room and once they spot Link, they'll charge at him. With the White Sword, it will take two slashes to defeat them. A tougher version called [[Golden Rope]] also exists in [[Hyrule]].


===Link's Awakening===
{{Figurine| id=96 | Rope | Figurine_Rope_(TMC).gif | Appears in various areas. They'll come straight for you if they spot you. Just swing your sword when they charge at you. }}


===Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages===
==''Phantom Hourglass''==
In ''Phantom Hourglass'', Ropes are a very simple enemy to defeat. They are normally found within dungeons and caves, and even outside [[Molida Island]] where the [[Old Wayfarer]] lives. When they see Link, they rush towards him in an attempt to hurt him. In this game, ropes seem to be easier to defeat as they appear to not move as fast as they do in previous installments, and they only take one swipe from Link's sword to be slain.


===The Minish Cap===
