The Magic Rod is an obtainable piece of equipment from Link's Awakening. It can create fireballs, which Link can use to shoot at enemies that are far away. It can also be used to light torches from a distance. Link obtains this item in Turtle Rock, the eighth dungeon, after defeating Blaino. He uses it to defeat Hot Head.

In the original game and Link's Awakening DX, the Magic Rod's fireballs are twice as strong as the Koholint Sword. In the Nintendo Switch remake, they deal as much damage as Link's standard sword, with some additional effects, such as killing red Zols without them turning into Gels.

The Magic Rod can be used to defeat several enemies who have few other weaknesses, like Goponga Flowers. In the original game and DX, it is also one of the few items that can kill Cuccos and Mutts by setting them on fire. However, they can no longer be set on fire on the Switch.
