The '''Magic Armor''' is an item in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' that [[Link]] can use to make himself invincible. With the lack of a [[Magic Meter|magic bar]] in ''Twilight Princess'', the Magic Armor drains rupees very quickly (about two per second). When attacked, it will drain 12 [[rupee]]s. When you run out of rupees, the armor becomes very heavy, causing Link to move as if he has the [[Iron Boots]] equipped. If Link is out of rupees when he equips this, Link can not get on [[Epona]], and if Link equips it while riding [[Epona]], Epona will stop, and Link will be sent flying off of Epona. He also sinks in water if he runs out of rupees while swimming, forcing him to take the armor off or drown. The Magic Armour's design is similar to that of the crown and armour Princess Zelda wears, suggesting that the Royal Family had something to do with the making of the armour.

The Magic Armor appears as jewel or crystal in {{TWW}}. It is an optional item that can be obtained from [[Zunari]] after completing part of the [[Island Trading Sequence]].


First, finish the [[Lakebed Temple]] and go to the [[Malo Mart]] shop in [[Kakariko Village]], talk to the [[Gor Liggs|Goron elder]] standing outside the shop.

Link can also activate the armor while sailing to protect himself from attacks during sea battles.


Then go inside the shop and donate 1000 rupees (it doesn't have to be all at once) to the [[Gor Ebizo|Goron]] there to repair the bridge at the Eastern Gate of Hyrule Town. (Wii version: the Western Gate)
==={{TP|-}}===
In {{TP}}, the Magic Armor drains 2 Rupees for every second it is equipped, or 12 Rupees when attacked. Once Link runs out of Rupees, the armor loses its color and becomes very heavy. This causes Link to move as if equipped with the [[Iron Boots]], having the same effect of sinking in water.<ref>{{Cite|You got the magic armor! You bought it! You are smart!

If Link runs out of Rupees while riding Epona, she will send Link flying off of her.


The Goron will say it is a glorious day and the bridge will be repaired.
The quest for the Magic Armor can be started after completing the [[Lakebed Temple]], and is completely optional.  


Talk to the Goron outside to do a small minigame, which will reduce the price for a shop in Hyrule Town by 1800 rupees. (It would cost 2000 rupees without minigame, and 200 with, it is recommended to do this minigame)
[[File:Buying the magic armor.png|thumb|right|Link purchasing the the Magic Armor at Malo Mart]]


You will start north of Kakariko Village, you'll have a big barrel of hot springwater on top of your head which you need to bring to the Goron at the Western gate of Hyrule Town.
Upon visiting [[Kakariko Village]], Link will find that the [[Goron]]s wish to sell their [[Hot Spring Water]] in the [[Castle Town]]. Therefore, [[Gor Ebizo]] starts raising funds at [[Malo Mart]] in order to repair a bridge in {{Exp|GCN version; East in the Wii version|western}} [[Hyrule Field]], and with the help of [[Malo]] himself, wants to purchase [[Chudley's Fine Goods and Fancy Trinkets Emporium]].
Just walk all the way there, without stopping to kill something, monsters aren't able to hit you if you keep the barrel on your head.
Just try to evade everything on the ground, just walking further is the best thing to do.
You can avoid all monsters by running along the East (West for the Wii version) edge of Hyrule Field to the bridge.
When you are at the Goron at the Western gate, walk to him and he will tell you that he needs hot springwater.
Lock him with L and throw it on him.
If you hit him correctly, he will go to Kakariko Village at high speed and bring back a barrel of [[Hot Spring Water|hot springwater]], leaving a [[Heart Piece]] at the repaired bridge when he got back, take it and go back to Kakariko Village.


Pay the Goron inside of Malo Mart a small 200 rupees, or if you didn't do the minigame 2000 rupees. A shop is now opened in [[Hyrule Castle Town|Hyrule Town]], visit it and buy the Magic Armor for 598 rupees.
After donating 1,000 Rupees, the bridge will be repaired. However, the Goron who fixed it, Gor Liggs' son, becomes fatigued, and therefore cannot move in order to import Hot Spring Water to town. After speaking to him, Link must return to Kakariko Village, where Gor Liggs gives him a [[Barrel]] of Hot Spring Water to revitalize his son. Link must then cross the {{Exp|GCN version; East in the Wii version|western}} field with the Barrel while avoiding enemy attacks. If Link is successfully attacked, the Barrel will burst. Once Link reaches the bridge, he must throw the Barrel onto the Goron, who will regain his strength, leaving a [[Piece of Heart]] behind.


The Magic Armor is similar in appearance to the [[Red Mail]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past|A Link to the Past]]''.
Afterwards, Link must go back to Malo Mart in Kakariko Village to find out that another monetary collection has been initiated; this time to buy Chudley’s Fine Goods and Fancy Trinkets Emporium. After donating 2000 Rupees, the emporium will be purchased. Link is then able to go to the Castle Town to find a branch of Malo Mart where the emporium used to be. Inside, he can find various goods at reasonable prices, including the Magic Armor for 598 Rupees instead of the original 100,000.

Magic Armors are recurring Items in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2]

Location and Uses

The Wind Waker

The Magic Armor appears as jewel or crystal in The Wind Waker. It is an optional item that can be obtained from Zunari after completing part of the Island Trading Sequence.

When activated, a magical barrier covers Link, protecting him from any damage. The Magic Armor slowly drains Link's Magic Meter while active.[3] In The Wind Waker HD, it consumes Rupees when Link is hit.[4] The Magic Armor will stop working once Link's Magic Meter is depleted or he runs out of Rupees. Link can also activate the armor while sailing to protect himself from attacks during sea battles.

Twilight Princess

In Twilight Princess, the Magic Armor drains 2 Rupees for every second it is equipped, or 12 Rupees when attacked. Once Link runs out of Rupees, the armor loses its color and becomes very heavy. This causes Link to move as if equipped with the Iron Boots, having the same effect of sinking in water.[5] If Link has the Magic Armor equipped and no Rupees, he will be unable to ride Epona. If Link runs out of Rupees while riding Epona, she will send Link flying off of her.

The quest for the Magic Armor can be started after completing the Lakebed Temple, and is completely optional.

Link purchasing the the Magic Armor at Malo Mart

Upon visiting Kakariko Village, Link will find that the Gorons wish to sell their Hot Spring Water in the Castle Town. Therefore, Gor Ebizo starts raising funds at Malo Mart in order to repair a bridge in western Hyrule Field, and with the help of Malo himself, wants to purchase Chudley's Fine Goods and Fancy Trinkets Emporium.

After donating 1,000 Rupees, the bridge will be repaired. However, the Goron who fixed it, Gor Liggs' son, becomes fatigued, and therefore cannot move in order to import Hot Spring Water to town. After speaking to him, Link must return to Kakariko Village, where Gor Liggs gives him a Barrel of Hot Spring Water to revitalize his son. Link must then cross the western field with the Barrel while avoiding enemy attacks. If Link is successfully attacked, the Barrel will burst. Once Link reaches the bridge, he must throw the Barrel onto the Goron, who will regain his strength, leaving a Piece of Heart behind.

Afterwards, Link must go back to Malo Mart in Kakariko Village to find out that another monetary collection has been initiated; this time to buy Chudley’s Fine Goods and Fancy Trinkets Emporium. After donating 2000 Rupees, the emporium will be purchased. Link is then able to go to the Castle Town to find a branch of Malo Mart where the emporium used to be. Inside, he can find various goods at reasonable prices, including the Magic Armor for 598 Rupees instead of the original 100,000.

Trivia

  • In The Wind Waker, when Link is wearing the Hero's New Clothes during the Second Quest, the Magic Armor, when equipped, will still show the outline of Link's hat, indicating that the clothes are indeed real, yet invisible.
