Defense

Enhanced Defense is a magical skill featured in Legend of Zelda series. The various ways to acquire enhanced defense utilize differing methods in each game.

Ocarina of Time
In Ocarina of Time, enhanced defense is awarded to Link by a Great Fairy who lives in a hidden cave by Ganon's Castle in Link's Adult time. The entrance is blocked by a black rock which can only be removed by the use of the Golden Gauntlets.

Majora's Mask
In Majora's Mask, if Link is able to collect all 15 Stray Fairies in the Great Bay Temple and return them to the Great Fairy Fountain, he is rewarded with enhanced defense.

Phantom Hourglass
In Phantom Hourglass, if Link collects 10 or 20 Wisdom Gems, he can use them to power up the Spirit of Wisdom which when equipped increases his defense.
