The Legend Of Zelda's Top Ten Items

Destroying bosses, exploring dungeons, and solving puzzles are all crucial elements of the Zelda series, but finding new items might be the most exciting of them all.

Destroying bosses, exploring dungeons, and solving puzzles are all crucial elements of the Zelda series, but finding new items might be the most exciting of them all. Considering that a new item could be the key to destroying that boss, exploring that dungeon, or solving that puzzle, collecting them is the most important part of any Zelda game. Whether they're an awesome weapon to add to your arsenal, a way to cross a seemingly uncrossable gap, or just a container for that crucial fairy, these items are the best in the long-running franchise.

10. The Spinner

Most of Link's items are either weapons to attack enemies or tunics and shields to defend himself. While the Spinner does minimal damage to enemies, it's primarily useful as a navigation tool. In the Arbiter's Grounds dungeon, Link can ride it like a skateboard through various grooves in the walls. Not only does it help you get around the dungeon, but it's also utilized in the awesome boss fight against the skeleton Stallord.

9. Bottles

No item in the Zelda franchise is more versatile than a simple bottle. It can save you from death if a fairy is enclosed, house a useful killer bee in A Link to the Past, trap Poes, and even reflect magic back at several of the series' bosses. Collecting all four of these in any Zelda game isn't a requirement, but they'll make your journey much easier.

8. Blast Mask

Bombs are one of the trademarks of the Zelda series, appearing in virtually every entry. In most of the games, you have to spend time cutting grass and looking under pots if you run out of bombs. Majora's Mask features the Blast Mask, however, which essentially gives you infinite bombs any time you want. Hitting the B button with this mask on literally makes your face explode , but there's a way to escape taking damage. Simply hold up Link's shield before hitting B, and you've got yourself a harmless face bomb at the press of a button.
