The '''Power Bracelet''' is a strength-increasing item in {{LZS|Series}} that bolsters [[Link]]'s kinetic power to that of a superhuman.<ref>{{cite manual|quote=This bracelet gives Link amazing inner strength. He can even lift giant rocks.|game=The Legend of Zelda|page=23}}</ref> Depending on the iteration, Power Bracelets may either come singularly or in pairs, though there is no discernible difference on their efficacy.

In {{TLoZ}}, the Power Bracelet is obtained by activating an [[Armos]] in the northwestern region of [[Hyrule]], either destroying it or tricking it to move from on top of it. Through the Power Bracelet, it is possible to push rocks on the overworld aside, revealing secrets. The Power Bracelet's location and method of obtention are the same in the [[Second Quest]].

The Power Bracelet is located in the [[Bottle Grotto]] of {{LA}}, where it is necessary to lift heavy [[Jar]]s to travel through the dungeon. The boss of the Bottle Grotto, [[Genie]], resides within a heavy Jar, which must be picked up and thrown in order to defeat him. Later, it is possible to upgrade the Power Bracelet into the '''L-2 Power Bracelet''' in the [[Face Shrine (Dungeon)|Face Shrine]]. The newly-upgraded Bracelet allows Link to lift heavier objects,<ref>{{Cite|You've got a more Powerful Bracelet! Now you can almost lift a whale!|N/A|LA}}</ref> such as elephant statues. The Power Bracelet can also be used to disrupt [[Spiny Beetle]]s, which hide under objects such as skulls.

The Power Bracelet is present in both games of the {{OoX}}, behaving functionally similar to the iteration in ''Link's Awakening''. In the ''Oracle'' series, there are heavy, cylindrical objects that cannot be moved without the Power Bracelet.<ref>{{Cite|Oof! It's too heavy to move!|N/A|OoS}}</ref> In {{OoS}}, it is found in the [[Snake's Remains]], where it is necessary to traverse the dungeon and defeat the boss, [[Dodongo]], by throwing it onto Floor Spikes while incapacitated. In {{OoA}}, the Power Bracelet is located in the [[Spirit's Grave]]. It is required for defeating the boss of the dungeon, [[Pumpkin Head]], by separating the pumpkin from the spectral inhabitant inside. Later in ''Oracle of Ages'', Link can find the [[Power Glove]] in the [[Ancient Tomb]], which effectively functions as the L-2 Power Bracelet. Despite Link possessing the Power Bracelet, it must be equipped in order to utilize its power.

In {{TWW}}, the Power Bracelets are housed within [[Fire Mountain]], which can only be entered after Link obtains the [[Ice Arrow]]s following his second venture into the [[Forsaken Fortress]]. To access them, Link must ascend the Mountain and enter its vent, leading to a chamber containing [[Fire Keese]] and [[Magtail]]s. The Magtails must be defeated within a set time limit (initiated after freezing the lava spout from outside), and will cause a Treasure Chest that contains the Power Bracelets to appear. With the Power Bracelets, Link can lift the [[Stone Head]] that obstructs the exit.

The Power Bracelets are necessary to lift other Stone Heads, such as above the [[Savage Labyrinth]] on [[Outset Island]] as well as the entrance to the [[Earth Temple (The Wind Waker)|Earth Temple]] on [[Headstone Island]]. Link may also return to Outset Island to carry the single [[Pig]] owned by [[Rose]] across the island in order to coax it into digging a hard patch of soil and uncover a [[Piece of Heart]].

The Power Bracelet in {{FSA}} is the only iteration of the item that can be used, lost and regained between levels. One Power Bracelet appears in a chest inside [[Dampé]]'s house in [[The Swamp]]'s cemetery. It functions similarly to the [[Blue Bracelet]] in that its power becomes a passive skill, rather than consuming space as a versatile item. With its power, one of the [[Links]] can lift objects, such as [[Tree]]s.

The only means to access the chest containing it is to show a [[Cucco]] to the elderly man, who is mourning his late wife's death.<ref>{{Cite|... ... ... ... ...

The Power Bracelets are vital to moving bookcases within [[Dr. Left]]'s house in order to reach [[Librari]] and obtain the [[Flippers]] in {{TMC}}. A [[Minish]] in his house indicates the general location of the Power Bracelets,<ref>{{Cite|Hey, do you know the clues that reveal the location of the treasure? Cross the bridge that spans the rapid flow... Through the land of the fearsome beast... Until you reach the misty falls... The treasure sleeps on the other side of the secret entrance there...

According to the legend, you're supposed to start from this house!|Town Minish|TMC}}</ref> guiding Link to the [[Town Fountain]], which is only accessible while the hero is in [[Minish Link|Minish form]]. The Power Bracelets ostensibly can only be worn while in Minish form as well, as there are no discernible effects on Link's strength while he is regularly sized. In addition to bookcases, Link is able to push normal-sized boxes around.

  +
In the [[The Legend of Zelda (TV series)|''Zelda'' animated series]], the '''Magic Bracelets''' function and look much like in the original ''The Legend of Zelda''. The bracelets appear in the episode "[[That Sinking Feeling]]" and give its wearer one minute of super strength.<ref>{{cite episode|quote=The bracelet, of course! These magic bracelets give one minute of super strength.|name=Link|show=The Legend of Zelda|episode=6}}</ref> Link obtains the Magic Bracelets after he defeats a [[Darknut]],<ref>{{cite episode|quote=Look! It dropped a magic bracelet!|name=Princess Zelda|show=The Legend of Zelda|episode=6}}</ref> and he uses them later on in the episode to break free from the chains that [[Ganon]] tied around him. After breaking free, Link lifts Ganon and throws him far away, eventually defeating him.

===''Hyrule Warriors'' Series===

In {{HW}} and {{HWL}}, the '''8-Bit Power Bracelet''' from ''The Legend of Zelda'' appears as a Weapon used by Link.

Revision as of 01:16, 21 March 2017

[[File:File:Pbracelet.png.png|20x20px]] [[|]] The Power Bracelet is a strength-increasing item in Template:LZS that bolsters Link's kinetic power to that of a superhuman.[1] Depending on the iteration, Power Bracelets may either come singularly or in pairs, though there is no discernible difference on their efficacy.

Location and Uses

The Legend of Zelda

TLoZ Power Bracelet Sprite

In The Legend of Zelda, the Power Bracelet is obtained by activating an Armos in the northwestern region of Hyrule, either destroying it or tricking it to move from on top of it. Through the Power Bracelet, it is possible to push rocks on the overworld aside, revealing secrets. The Power Bracelet's location and method of obtention are the same in the Second Quest.

Link's Awakening

File:Link's Awakening - Power Bracelet.png
Power Bracelet artwork from Link's Awakening

The Power Bracelet is located in the Bottle Grotto of Link's Awakening, where it is necessary to lift heavy Jars to travel through the dungeon. The boss of the Bottle Grotto, Genie, resides within a heavy Jar, which must be picked up and thrown in order to defeat him. Later, it is possible to upgrade the Power Bracelet into the L-2 Power Bracelet in the Face Shrine. The newly-upgraded Bracelet allows Link to lift heavier objects,[2] such as elephant statues. The Power Bracelet can also be used to disrupt Spiny Beetles, which hide under objects such as skulls.

Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons

The Power Bracelet is present in both games of the Template:OoX, behaving functionally similar to the iteration in Link's Awakening. In the Oracle series, there are heavy, cylindrical objects that cannot be moved without the Power Bracelet.[3] In Oracle of Seasons, it is found in the Snake's Remains, where it is necessary to traverse the dungeon and defeat the boss, Dodongo, by throwing it onto Floor Spikes while incapacitated. In Oracle of Ages, the Power Bracelet is located in the Spirit's Grave. It is required for defeating the boss of the dungeon, Pumpkin Head, by separating the pumpkin from the spectral inhabitant inside. Later in Oracle of Ages, Link can find the Power Glove in the Ancient Tomb, which effectively functions as the L-2 Power Bracelet. Despite Link possessing the Power Bracelet, it must be equipped in order to utilize its power.

The Wind Waker

Power Bracelets TWW
The Power Bracelets from The Wind Waker

In The Wind Waker, the Power Bracelets are housed within Fire Mountain, which can only be entered after Link obtains the Ice Arrows following his second venture into the Forsaken Fortress. To access them, Link must ascend the Mountain and enter its vent, leading to a chamber containing Fire Keese and Magtails. The Magtails must be defeated within a set time limit (initiated after freezing the lava spout from outside), and will cause a Treasure Chest that contains the Power Bracelets to appear. With the Power Bracelets, Link can lift the Stone Head that obstructs the exit.

The Power Bracelets are necessary to lift other Stone Heads, such as above the Savage Labyrinth on Outset Island as well as the entrance to the Earth Temple on Headstone Island. Link may also return to Outset Island to carry the single Pig owned by Rose across the island in order to coax it into digging a hard patch of soil and uncover a Piece of Heart.

Four Swords Adventures

Power Bracelet

The Power Bracelet in Four Swords Adventures is the only iteration of the item that can be used, lost and regained between levels. One Power Bracelet appears in a chest inside Dampé's house in The Swamp's cemetery. It functions similarly to the Blue Bracelet in that its power becomes a passive skill, rather than consuming space as a versatile item. With its power, one of the Links can lift objects, such as Trees.

Another Power Bracelet appears in the Lost Woods, given to one of the Links by Dekki in return for helping him.[4] The Power Bracelet in Kakariko Village is located in the southern part of the village, accessible behind a locked block in a house occupied by the Old Timer. The only means to access the chest containing it is to show a Cucco to the elderly man, who is mourning his late wife's death.[5] Upon giving the Cucco to him, he grants the Links a Key that leads to a back room in his house containing two Chests,[6] one containing 150 Force Gems and the Power Bracelet. Frozen Hyrule also contains a Power Bracelet.

The Minish Cap

The Power Bracelets are vital to moving bookcases within Dr. Left's house in order to reach Librari and obtain the Flippers in The Minish Cap. A Minish in his house indicates the general location of the Power Bracelets,[7] guiding Link to the Town Fountain, which is only accessible while the hero is in Minish form. The Power Bracelets ostensibly can only be worn while in Minish form as well, as there are no discernible effects on Link's strength while he is regularly sized. In addition to bookcases, Link is able to push normal-sized boxes around.

Non-Canon Appearances

Animated Series

Magic Bracelet (That Sinking Feeling)

The Magic Bracelet

In the Zelda animated series, the Magic Bracelets function and look much like in the original The Legend of Zelda. The bracelets appear in the episode "That Sinking Feeling" and give its wearer one minute of super strength.[8] Link obtains the Magic Bracelets after he defeats a Darknut,[9] and he uses them later on in the episode to break free from the chains that Ganon tied around him. After breaking free, Link lifts Ganon and throws him far away, eventually defeating him.

Hyrule Warriors Series

In Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends, the 8-Bit Power Bracelet from The Legend of Zelda appears as a Weapon used by Link. It is the Lv.★ form of the Gauntlet, and is statistically-identical to the Lv.3 Power Gloves. The Weapon appears as a pair of dark 8-bit gloves wearing a Power Bracelet on each wrist. The Ball and Chain used as part of the Gauntlet Weapon is instead replaced with the 8-bit Raft, also from The Legend of Zelda.

The 8-bit Power Bracelet also appears as an Item Card in the Adventure, Master Quest, and Hyrule Warriors Legends-exclusive Koholint Island Maps of Adventure Mode, using the same sprite. It allows Warriors to move boulders and tombstones or destroy Armos statues to find hidden rewards. In Hyrule Warriors Legends, the Power Bracelets from The Wind Waker appear in 8-bit form as an Item Card in the Great Sea and Master Wind Waker Maps, also allowing Warriors to move boulders to reveal hidden rewards.
