The Ice Rod is an optional permanent item in ''[[Cadence of Hyrule]]''. It can be used to freeze water or enemies in a straight line at the cost of stamina. Unlike the [[Ice Arrow]]s, the Ice Rod does not have a finite amount of ammo, making its usage solely dependent on the character's remaining stamina. The effects of the Ice Rod last the same amount of time as the Ice Arrows and the [[Scroll of Freezing]]. | |||

"Ice Rod
After Sahasrahla gives Link the Pegasus Shoes, he tells him to get a strange and mystical weapon called the Ice Rod which is located to the east of Lake Hylia. Link must travel south of the lake and then up and around to the lake's northeast corner. Link will be able to see a cave entrance, but just to the left of that entrance is a pile of loose rocks. Bomb through the rocks to reveal another entrance."
"An icy blast flies out from the Ice Rod. It freezes enemies solid. Once frozen, Link can pick up an enemy and throw it to destroy it."
When Link uses this weapon, it shoots out a blue beam to freeze the enemy, but it consumes some of Link's Magic Power. It is found on Lake Hylia's shore inside a cave to the east. Despite Link being able to acquire the Ice Rod before even entering the Eastern Palace, the item isn't required until near the very end of the game. Link needs the Ice Rod in Turtle Rock when battling against the dungeon boss, Trinexx.
