Meteor Rods are one-handed Weapons. They are superior counterparts to Fire Rods. Meteor Rods are not made of flammable materials and can safely be used around Fire or Scorching Climates. They also are not made of magnetic materials and cannot be manipulated with Magnesis. Meteor Rods do not attract Lightning during Thunderstorms or conduct Electricity, and they will float in sufficiently deep bodies of Water.

Meteor Rods are imbued with Fire elemental energy, generating three balls of Fire that bounce around when swung. However, Meteor Rods are fragile and will break easily if they make direct contact with Objects or Enemies. They will also break simply from extended use. If Link executes a Spin Attack while wielding a Meteor Rod, he will loose eight blasts at once in different directions. Any attack from a Meteor Rod will instantly defeat Ice-related Enemies, such as Ice-Breath Lizalfos and Ice Wizzrobes. Finally, they will provide one level of Cold Resistance when equipped.

When thrown with the R button, Meteor Rods will not leave Link's hand, and they will instead produce three balls of Fire that will bounce around in the direction they are thrown. Meteor Rods will temporarily lose their magical properties if used excessively, requiring a brief cooldown period before they can be used again. Whilst they are primarily used by Meteo Wizzrobes, other Enemies like Fire Wizzrobes or Blue Bokoblins may also wield them.
