'''Bombs''' are recurring items in {{LZS|Series}}, debuting in {{TLoZ}} and appearing in every game since, excluding {{TAoL}}. People like [[Bomb-Master Cannon|Cannon]] and [[Barnes]] consider Bomb-making an art and sell the explosives at their [[Bomb Shop]]s. Bombs are usually obtained early in each game, and they are commonly carried in [[Bomb Bag]]s. Since their first appearance, they have kept a consistent design until {{TP}}, in which they were given a more realistic appearance.
 
 
==Location==
 
[[File:MM3D Bomb Icon.png|left|Bomb sprite from ''Majora's Mask 3D'']]
 
Bombs are often available in the quest if [[Link]] happens upon them. Like most items in the series that come in quantities, they can often be found in [[pot]]s, [[bush]]es, [[Bomb Shop]]s, and on defeated enemies. In {{LA}}, Link can only buy Bombs from the [[Town Tool Shop]] in [[Mabe Village]] after having bought the [[Shovel]]. To receive Bombs in {{OoA}}, Link must first give [[Queen Ambi]] [[Mystery Seeds]], for which she will award him with Bombs.<ref>{{Cite|Mystery Seeds! Nayru desires Mystery Seeds more than anything else! She will be most pleased! By what name do you go, boy? ...Link? I offer a reward, Link. Bring it here... Link, this is your reward. Take it with great thanks.|Queen Ambi|OoA}}</ref> In 3D ''Zelda'' games and {{TMC}}, Link is required to own a [[Bomb Bag]] before he can even use Bombs.
 
 
==Uses==
 
===Main Functions===
 
[[File:ALBW Bomb Icon.png|left|50px|Bomb sprite from ''A Link Between Worlds'']]
 
[[File:SS Link Bomb.png|150px|right|Link about to roll a Bomb in ''Skyward Sword'']]
 
Bombs are used to create explosions. Only seconds after they are set, they will flash red and then explode in a puff of smoke and fire. Bombs can be used in a variety of ways, such as for blowing up rocks or walls, defeating [[Dodongo]]s and other enemies, and solving puzzles. In some games, Link can find out which walls can be bombed by hitting or tapping them with his sword. Since {{ALttP}}, Link can pick up, carry, and throw Bombs. In {{SS}}, Link can also throw bombs like bowling balls via an underarm swing of the [[Wii]] Remote, with even being capable of giving the bomb a spin. The {{it|Beetle}} can also pick up and fly with a Bomb to a new location, adding depth to the Bomb's usage. The number of Bombs Link can set varies from title to title. Though very useful, they have a double-edged sword quality, as they can harm Link if he is caught in the explosion,<ref>{{Cite manual|quote=A bomb blast will damage enemies and knock holes in some walls, but it will also damage your character if he is too close to the blast. The bomb's fuse will burn for about two seconds, and up to two bombs can be set at a time. You can also pick up a bomb you have placed and throw it before it explodes (be careful!).|game=ALttP|page=37}}</ref> except in {{TLoZ}} and {{LA}}. Given these functions, the Bomb is one of the most essential items in the series.
 
 
When Link wears certain [[Magic Ring]]s in the {{OoX}}, they affect the function of Bombs.
 
 
*'''Blast Ring''' – Bombs cause 25% more damage
 
*'''Bomber's Ring''' – Allows Link to set two Bombs consecutively
 
*'''Bombproof Ring''' – Link becomes invulnerable to his Bombs' blasts
 
*'''Peace Ring''' – Bombs will not explode as Link holds them
 
 
===Quantity===
 
The quantity of Link's Bombs is limited, except in {{FS}}, {{FSA}}, and {{ALBW}}. Link can increase these limits depending on his actions. In ''The Legend of Zelda'', an [[Old Man]] in the [[Lizard]] and [[Demon (Dungeon)|Demon]] Labyrinths (in the [[Snake]] and [[Lion]] Labyrinths in the [[Second Quest]]), will increase the number of Bombs Link can carry at the cost of 100 [[Rupee]]s.<ref>{{Cite|I BET YOU'D LIKE TO HAVE MORE BOMBS|Old Man|TLoZ}}</ref> If Link tosses 100 Rupees into the [[Pond of Happiness]] in ''A Link to the Past'', [[Venus]] will increase the carrying capacity of his Bombs if he so chooses. He may continue giving Rupees to reach a maximum of 50 Bombs. [[Mad Batter]] in ''Link's Awakening'' will give Link more Bombs if he sprinkles [[Magic Powder]] on an underground alter and awakens the creature. There are always ways to increase a Bomb Bag's capacity by finding larger Bomb Bags through mini-games or [[Great Fairy|Great Fairies]].
 
 
==Variations==
 
===Super Bomb===
 
[[File:Super Bomb Sprite LttP.gif|left|50px]]
 
The '''Super Bomb''' is a red, larger version of the Bomb. Its only appearance is in ''A Link to the Past''. It can only be obtained from the [[Dark World]]'s Bomb Shop, but it doesn't become available until after clearing both the [[Ice Palace]] and [[Misery Mire (A Link to the Past)|Misery Mire]]. It is priced at 100 Rupees.<ref>{{Cite|I also have a new Super Bomb in stock for only 100 Rupees!|Bomb Shop Owner|ALttP}}</ref> The Super Bomb cannot be placed in Link's inventory, he has to drag it behind him until he needs to use it. It cannot be taken over cliff edges, and Link cannot run with it, but its explosion cannot harm Link. After Link sets the Bomb, a three-second countdown will appear, after which the Bomb will create a large explosion. The Super Bomb is required to break through the cracked wall on the second level of the [[Pyramid of Power]], where the [[Great Fairy#Fat Fairy|Fat Fairy]] resides.
 
 
===Bomb Flower===
 
{{Main|Bomb Flower}}
 
[[File:BombFlower OoTMM.png‎|right|120px]]
 
Bomb flowers, which debuted in ''Ocarina of Time'', are a special exploding fruit that are set to explode when plucked and will soon after regrow. They are necessary when Link does not have his own Bombs.<ref>{{Cite|Those plants growing over there are Bomb Flowers. They are mining plants that grow only on this mountain. The flower's fruit is the raw material for bombs.|Goron|OoT}}</ref> A Bomb Flower can be lighted without being plucked if hit with an [[Arrow]], touched with a burning [[Deku Stick]], or if hit by a nearby explosion. In ''Ocarina of Time'', they are too heavy for [[Young Link]] to lift without aid of the [[Goron Bracelets]].<ref>{{Cite|You got the Goron's Bracelet! Now you can pull up Bomb Flowers. Stand next to one and use A to pull it up!|N/A|OoT}}</ref>
 
 
===Bombchu===
 
{{Main|Bombchu}}
 
[[File:Bombchu2.png|left|100px]]
 
Bombchu are special Bombs that resemble [[Real Bombchu]]. Link requires a Bomb Bag to carry them, but in {{PH}}, he must have a separate Bombchu Bag. In their appearances in ''Ocarina of Time'' and {{MM}}, these Bombs, when set, will go forward on their own, even crawling up walls and ceilings if they encounter one. The Bombchu will continue to run until it collides with an object that cannot be climbed or an enemy or until its fuse runs out and it explodes on its own.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote=Pick up a Bombchu and set it at you feet. It will start running by itself. If it hits an object, or runs for a while without hitting anything, it will explode. Once it starts running, you have no control over it.|game=OoT|page=23}}</ref> In the [[Oracle Series|''Oracle'' Series]], Bombchu home in on nearby enemies and blow up. In ''Phantom Hourglass'', a Bombchu can be controlled manually by creating a set path for them.<ref>{{Cite|You got a Bombchu! You can carry up to 10 Bombchus in your bag! They will follow the path that you draw on your map!|N/A|PH}}</ref>
 
 
===Blast Mask===
 
[[File:Blastmask.png|95px|right]]
 
{{Main|Blast Mask}}
 
The Blast Mask allows Link to instantly cause an explosion when he wears it, although he cannot use his [[Sword]] while wearing it. He must wait a few seconds after a blast to use it again. Its explosion can harm Link unless the uses his [[Shield]] at the same time the explosion occurs.<ref>{{Cite|You got the Blast Mask! Wear it with C. You can have a blast with B, but you'll lose life energy in the process.|N/A|MM}}</ref>
 
 
===Powder Keg===
 
{{Main|Powder Keg}}
 
[[File:MM PowderKeg2.png|85px|left]]
 
Powder Kegs, appearing only in ''Majora's Mask'', have a bigger and more powerful blast than regular Bombs.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote=These special bombs used only by Gorons are much more powerful than standard bombs. After you set them, they will explode when the fuse burns up.|game=MM|page=30}}</ref> They can only be used by [[Goron Link]]. Link can only buy Powder Kegs when he is certified to use them.<ref>{{Cite|Powder Kegs are extremely powerful and dangerous, so those who haven't been approved by the instructor can't carry them.|Goron at Clock Town's Bomb Shop|MM}}</ref> Powder Kegs main uses are to clear the path to the [[Goron Race]]track and [[Romani Ranch]], and to destroy the cracked ceiling of the [[Ancient Castle of Ikana]].<ref>{{Cite|If you can destroy the boulder that blocks the entrance to the Goron Racetrack near here using the Powder Keg I'm about to give you, then I'll approve you to carry them.|Medigoron|MM}}</ref> Powder Kegs can be purchased in two places in [[Termina]], namely in the [[Goron Powder Keg Shop]] in [[Goron Village (Majora's Mask)|Goron Village]] and in the Bomb Shop in [[Clock Town]]. After Link deploys a Powder Keg, its fuse will slowly burn down until it explodes. However, the process can be speeded up by shooting an Arrow at it, making the keg explode immediately.
 
 
===Cannon===
 
{{Main|Cannon}}
 
[[File:Practical Cannon.png|right|65px]]
 
As soon Link receives Bombs in ''The Wind Waker'', he can use the Cannon on the [[King of Red Lions]] by simply using the Bomb item while on the boat.<ref>{{Cite|Using bombs while on your boat gives you a mighty cannon you can use to fight off seagoing enemies.|N/A|TWW}}</ref> The Cannon in ''Phantom Hourglass'' and ''Spirit Tracks'' have an unlimited supply of shots, although they have to be obtained.
 
 
In the [[Snowpeak Ruins]] in ''Twilight Princess'', there are many cannons that require the insertion of a cannonball and then a Bomb for them to activate. These cannons can blast through thick ice and any enemy in their way.
 
 
In {{FPTRR}}, the [[Stalfos Pirates]]' cannon is used to destroy the boulder on [[Mount Desma]].
 
 
===Tingle Bomb===
 
[[File:WW Link Tuner.png|90px|left]]
 
A '''Tingle Bomb''' is an item provided by the [[Tingle Tuner]] at a cost of ten Rupees per use. It can be set wherever the [[Tingle]] icon goes onscreen. It is almost like a normal Bomb, but it is invisible, cannot be thrown, and can reveal certain hidden pots and [[Treasure Chest]]s containing [[Tingle Statue]]s.<ref>{{Cite|Huh? Hmmm? There seems to be something hidden here! Use a Tingle Bomb to search for it!|Tingle|TWW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Here it is!!!!!! Medli was hiding the vase. Who knew she was so sneaky?|Tingle|TWW}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|Let's solve a puzzle! Yesss! A Tingle Statue is hidden in this dungeon... It seems you can uncover it with a Tingle Bomb...|Tingle|TWW}}</ref> Tingle Bombs can be detonated immediately if the cursor is not on Link, or rooted into place with a three second countdown, which will cause Tingle to warn Link to run. Tingle Bombs are only half as [[Weapon Strength#The Wind Waker|strong]] as normal Bombs are. A successful hit on an enemy will drop a yellow Rupee, covering the cost of using the Bomb. More successful hits on enemies within the same room will increase the value of the dropped Rupees, from a red Rupee to a purple Rupee. Tingle Bombs can also blow away piles of leaves.
 
{{Clear}}
 
===Level 2 Bomb===
 
The '''Level 2 Bomb''', which is exclusive to ''Four Swords Adventures'', is an item upgrade Link can obtain by tossing the Bomb item into a [[Great Fairy Fountain#Four Swords Adventures|Great Fairy Fountain]]. These Bombs are larger and have a larger blast radius.<ref>{{Cite|You got level 2 bombs! They're...huge! I can't wait to see 'em blow up!|N/A|FSA}}</ref>
 
 
===Big Bomb===
 
[[File:Big Bomb.png|right]]
 
The '''Big Bomb''', often referred to as a '''Giant Bomb''', makes its first and only appearance in ''Four Swords Adventures''. It is not a helpful item, except in [[Shadow Battle]], as its blast can kill a [[Links|Link]] instantly if he is in range. Big Bombs are usually dropped by [[Shadow Link]], but they will also appear in chests.<ref>{{Cite|You got a Big Bomb! This will blow everything to smithereens! Uh-oh...RUN!!|N/A|FSA}}</ref> It has a 10-second fuse and its explosion affects the entire area. Link can avoid its blast by escaping into a hole,<ref>{{Cite|A giant bomb! Escape to your Game Boy Advance!|N/A|FSA}}</ref> walking into a cave, diving underwater,<ref>{{Cite|A giant bomb! Quickly! Dive underwater!|N/A|FSA}}</ref> or leaving the area altogether.<ref>{{Cite|A giant bomb! Run away!|N/A|FSA}}</ref>
 
 
===Remote Bomb===
 
[[File:Remotebomb.gif|left|40px]]
 
Only appearing in ''The Minish Cap'', Link can get '''Remote Bombs''' from [[Belari]] in exchange for his regular Bombs. This can be done after getting the regular Bombs and [[Kinstone Fusion|fusing]] [[Kinstone]]s with [[Gentari]], the [[Minish]] elder. After being set, these Bombs will explode only when the button to which they are assigned is pressed again. Because of this, it is impossible to set two Remote Bombs at a time. Belari can trade the Remote Bombs back for regular Bombs whenever Link talks to him again.<ref>{{Cite|At last, it's complete! The Remote Bomb! It blows up whenever you want! If you ever need normal bombs again, just trade me back for them.|Belari|TMC}}</ref> When Link has the Remote Bombs, he will obtain these items the same way as the normal Bombs. Even though Remote Bombs are the first to be referred as such, Bombs in ''Four Swords'' can be activated in a similar manner.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote=You can press the A Button again after bombs land to set them off quickly.|page=42|game=FS}}</ref>
 
 
===Bomb Arrows===
 
[[File:BombArrow.png|right|140px]]
 
{{Main|Bomb Arrow}}
 
Bomb Arrows are a combination of both Bombs and Arrows. First appearing in ''Link's Awakening'', Link can shoot them by dropping a Bomb and then shooting it with an Arrow. In ''Twilight Princess'', they can simply be attached to Arrows. They can be fired to create distant blasts in high and low places.<ref>{{Cite|Oh...And you can combine bombs and arrows to make bomb arrows for when you need ranged explosives!|Barnes|TP}}</ref>
 
 
===Water Bomb===
 
[[File:Water Bomb.png|left|80px]]
 
'''Water Bombs''' are special Bombs found only in ''Twilight Princess'' that are able to explode underwater, while other Bombs become duds once they make contact with water. They appear to be [[Bombfish]], but [[Barnes]] claims his are handmade.<ref>{{Cite|I finished my water bombs! These little fellas are so advanced, you can even use 'em in the water! Oh, they'll come in handy, guaranteed.|Barnes|TP}}</ref> Link can catch Bombfish with the [[Fishing Rod]] and add them to his Water Bomb inventory. Water Bombs are essential items needed for gaining access to and completing the [[Lakebed Temple]]. To use them while underwater, Link has to be wearing [[Iron Boots]]. When thrown on land, they act as regular Bombs. However, they are more expensive and Link can only carry half as many regular Bombs.
 
 
===Bombling===
 
{{Main|Bombling}}
 
[[File:Bombling.png|right|100px]]
 
Bomblings are explosive creatures found in ''Twilight Princess''. While they are just useful enemies at first, they can be added to Link's Bomb inventory later on. As items, they are similar to the Bombchu, except they will not crawl up walls but rather will explode whenever they crash into something.<ref>{{Cite|You got bomblings (10)! Release them and they'll travel forward and explode if they hit something or after some time.|N/A|TP}}</ref> Wild Bomblings, necessary to complete the [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]], spawn from small holes in the ground and will attack Link after taking a brief stance, but will not explode until Link attacks them back. They can be carried around and thrown afar by using the [[Gale Boomerang]].
 
 
===Nice Bombs===
 
[[File:ALBW Nice Bomb Icon.png|left|50px]]
 
'''Nice Bombs''' are an upgrade of the regular Bombs in {{ALBW}}. The upgrade can be obtained after collecting at least 10 lost [[Maiamai]]s and then returning them to [[Mother Maiamai]]. The Bombs must be bought from [[Ravio]] first in order to upgrade them. Nice Bombs have a larger blast radius and cause more damage than regular Bombs.

==Other Appearances==
 
{{Ambig|start}}
 
===''Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland''===
 
In ''Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland'', two types of Bombs appear. The first type, Tingle Bombs, can be concocted by using two Bomb Fruits, two Gelatine, and two Explosive Claws. They are stored in [[Bottle|empty jars]]. Cauldrons of the concoction exist in [[Desma's Labyrinth]]. The second type, '''Nitro Bombs''', are also stored in empty jars, and are a more powerful version of Tingle Bombs. The recipe for Nitro Bombs (Bomb Fruits, three Gelatine, three Explosive Claws, and three Multi-Bomb Fruits) is obtained from the [[Stalfos Pirates]]' Engineer when their pirate ship is being attacked by insects. They can shatter large [[boulder]]s.

{{Noncanon|start}}
 
===Philips CD-i Games===
 
In {{TFoE}} and {{TWoG}}, Bombs are used to damage stronger enemies and to destroy breakable rocks and small walls. They are purchased from [[Morshu]]'s shop in ''The Faces of Evil'', and [[Merchant#Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon|The Merchant]]'s shop in ''The Wand of Gamelon''. In both games, Bombs are purchased in packs of three for 20 [[Rupee#Philips CD-i Games|Rubies]]. Link and [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] can carry up to 99 of them.
 
 
===''Hyrule Warriors''===
 
[[File:HW Water Bomb Sprite.svg|right]]
 
In {{HW}}, Bombs are items kept in the inventory. They are first obtained in "[[Hyrule Field (Hyrule Warriors)|The Armies of Ruin]]" Scenario, after Link finds them in the field's Mine Entrance. Bombs are thrown in small spurts. They are primarily used to destroy cracked walls and boulders, but can also be used to damage enemies. Some giant bosses, such as [[King Dodongo]], are particularly weak to them and can be used to make their [[Weak Point Gauge]] expose. The Bombs can be temporarily upgraded to a giant Bomb by collecting Bomb power ups, which will throw one giant Bomb that clears a large area. [[Goron's Bracelet]] [[Badge]]s in the [[Bazaar (Hyrule Warriors)|Bazaar]] can be crafted to increase the duration of the upgrade.
 
 
In [[Adventure Mode]], normal and Water Bombs appear as [[Item Card]]s. Normal Bombs are used to open cave entrances in mountain walls and to destroy boulders on land, whereas Water Bombs are used to destroy boulders on bodies of water.
 
{{Noncanon|end}}
 
 
==Trivia==
 
*Unusually among ''Zelda'' games, it is possible to complete the main quest in {{ST}} without ever acquiring Bombs. This is due to all bombable obstacles that are necessary to traverse to finish the game can be destroyed with Bomb Flowers or [[Wrecker Phantom]]s in the surrounding area. Bombs are still necessary to access many optional treasures and hidden areas, though, and they provide easier solutions to many puzzles in the main quest.
