The '''Fire Arrow''' is a type of [[Arrow]] in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They do more damage than regular Arrows, melt ice, and light enemies on fire. In many games where they appear, Fire Arrows require [[Magic Power]] from the [[Magic Meter]] to use.
'''Fire Arrows''' are recurring [[Item]]s in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They are [[Arrow]]s imbued with the elemental power of fire, and can be used as an alternative ammunition for the [[Bow]] at the cost of [[Magic Power]] (in games with such a mechanic).


==Appearances==
==Location and uses==
===Ocarina of Time===
===''Ocarina of Time''===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', Fire Arrows are found in the future at [[Lake Hylia]] after completing the [[Water Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Water Temple]]. They are on the tip of a small island with two small pillars. On the central island, there is a stone tablet with the following inscribed,''"When water fills the lake, shoot for the morning light"''. Shooting an arrow at the rising sun causes the Fire Arrows to appear on the small island. They take two points of Magic Power each. The Fire Arrows do as much damage as a jump attack with the [[Master Sword]] or one slash with [[Biggoron's Sword]].
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the Fire Arrows are located at [[Lake Hylia (Ocarina of Time)|Lake Hylia]] in the adult era. To obtain them, [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] must stand on the plaque atop the entrance to the [[Water Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Water Temple]] and fire an Arrow at the sunrise. If Link does so correctly, the Arrow freezes mid-air, a red crystal surrounding the tip, and falls onto an island in the lake, which Link can then obtain to unlock the Fire Arrows. The Water Temple does not need to be completed beforehand, as the island can be accessed by playing the [[Scarecrow's Song]] and using the [[Longshot]], or with a [[Magic Bean]] plant.


===Majora's Mask===
Fire Arrows deal double damage compared to regular Arrows, and can light [[Brazier|Torch]]es that are too far away to be lit with [[Din's Fire]]. However, each one costs 2 Magic Power to fire. They are optional, since using Din's Fire and shooting a regular Arrow through a lit Torch also works, but are required in the [[Master Quest]], in order to burn webs on the ceiling of the Spirit Barrier in [[Ganon's Castle]].
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', Fire Arrows are the dungeon item of the [[Snowhead Temple]]. To acquire them, Link must defeat a [[Wizzrobe]]. The Fire Arrows work the same as they did in ''Ocarina of Time'', but if they are shot at a [[Gibdo]], instead of doing the regular damage, it turns them into [[ReDead]]s. Fire Arrows in ''Majora's Mask'' are required to complete the game.


===The Wind Waker===
===''Majora's Mask''===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', Fire Arrows are not acquired until Link learns the [[Ballad of Gales]] for teleportation. Once the song is learned, Link must warp to the [[Mother and Child Isles]]. When Link arrives there, he falls into the "Mother" island and has a conversation with the [[Queen of Fairies]]. She gives the Fire Arrows to Link, along with the [[Ice Arrow]]s. The primary purpose of the Fire Arrows is to gain access to [[Ice Ring Isle]] to obtain the [[Iron Boots]], an item required to enter the [[Wind Temple]].
{{Quote|You got the Fire Arrow! Set it to {{Button N64 Text|C}} to power up your Arrows. Things will heat up when they hit!|N/A, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''}}
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', the Fire Arrows are the dungeon item of the [[Snowhead Temple]], guarded by a [[Wizzrobe]]. Once again, they cost 2 Magic Power to fire; If Link runs out of Magic Power, he will fire a regular Arrow instead. Fire Arrows function similarly to their previous appearance, but are required to solve various puzzles around [[Snowhead]], and burn the curtains blocking sunlight during the fight against [[Igos du Ikana]] and [[King's Lackeys|his servants]] in the [[Ancient Castle of Ikana]]. Fire Arrows will also transform [[Gibdo]]s into [[ReDead]]s, and cause any [[Enemies]] they defeat to drop a bundle of Arrows.


===Breath of the Wild===

Fire Arrows can be found in chests, bought in shops, and looted from enemies. These arrows can light most enemies on fire, and are very powerful against ice-elemental enemies, such as [[Ice Wizzrobe]]s.  
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', the Fire Arrows are located alongside the [[Ice Arrow]]s at the [[Mother and Child Isles]]. To obtain them, [[Link (The Wind Waker)|Link]] must use the [[Ballad of Gales]] to warp inside the large rock structure, where he will meet the [[Fairy Queen]]; However, the Fairy Queen will not give Link the Arrows until he has saved [[Aryll]] from the [[Forsaken Fortress]].

They also emit heat and light while drawn, enabling them to keep [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]] warm in cold climates, melt [[Ice]], and illuminate dark areas.

Fire Arrow

Fire Arrows are recurring Items in The Legend of Zelda series. They are Arrows imbued with the elemental power of fire, and can be used as an alternative ammunition for the Bow at the cost of Magic Power (in games with such a mechanic).

Location and uses

Ocarina of Time

In Ocarina of Time, the Fire Arrows are located at Lake Hylia in the adult era. To obtain them, Link must stand on the plaque atop the entrance to the Water Temple and fire an Arrow at the sunrise. If Link does so correctly, the Arrow freezes mid-air, a red crystal surrounding the tip, and falls onto an island in the lake, which Link can then obtain to unlock the Fire Arrows. The Water Temple does not need to be completed beforehand, as the island can be accessed by playing the Scarecrow's Song and using the Longshot, or with a Magic Bean plant.

Fire Arrows deal double damage compared to regular Arrows, and can light Torches that are too far away to be lit with Din's Fire. However, each one costs 2 Magic Power to fire. They are optional, since using Din's Fire and shooting a regular Arrow through a lit Torch also works, but are required in the Master Quest, in order to burn webs on the ceiling of the Spirit Barrier in Ganon's Castle.

Majora's Mask

"You got the Fire Arrow! Set it to Ⓒ to power up your Arrows. Things will heat up when they hit!"

— N/A, Majora's Mask

In Majora's Mask, the Fire Arrows are the dungeon item of the Snowhead Temple, guarded by a Wizzrobe. Once again, they cost 2 Magic Power to fire; If Link runs out of Magic Power, he will fire a regular Arrow instead. Fire Arrows function similarly to their previous appearance, but are required to solve various puzzles around Snowhead, and burn the curtains blocking sunlight during the fight against Igos du Ikana and his servants in the Ancient Castle of Ikana. Fire Arrows will also transform Gibdos into ReDeads, and cause any Enemies they defeat to drop a bundle of Arrows.

The Wind Waker

In The Wind Waker, the Fire Arrows are located alongside the Ice Arrows at the Mother and Child Isles. To obtain them, Link must use the Ballad of Gales to warp inside the large rock structure, where he will meet the Fairy Queen; However, the Fairy Queen will not give Link the Arrows until he has saved Aryll from the Forsaken Fortress.

Fire Arrows deal double damage compared to regular Arrows. They are required to obtain the Iron Boots by melting the ice around Ice Ring Isle, and in the Earth Temple to burn curtains.

Breath of the Wild

"An arrow imbued with the power of fire. It breaks apart on impact, igniting objects in the immediate area. It's incredibly effective against cold things."

In Breath of the Wild, Fire Arrows are a type of Arrow that can be used with any Bow. They can be dropped by archer enemies, found inside Treasure Chests, or purchased from the following vendors:

When shot from a Bow, Fire Arrows deal +10 damage and set the target on fire, instantly defeating Ice Wizzrobes, Blizzrobes, and Ice-Breath Lizalfos. They also emit heat and light while drawn, enabling them to keep Link warm in cold climates, melt Ice, and illuminate dark areas. However, Fire Arrows will not set targets on fire when exposed to rain, as the flames will be extinguished almost immediately.

Super Smash Bros.

Cadence of Hyrule

In Cadence of Hyrule, Fire Arrows can be found randomly after obtaining the Bow. When equipped, they imbue the Bow's shots with a fire effect at the cost of 1 Stamina Unit per shot, able to burn enemies and Tree Stumps, light Braziers, and melt ice.
