In {{ALttP}}, [[Link]] obtains the Fire Rod in the [[Skull Woods (A Link to the Past)|Skull Woods]]. It can be used as a weapon to burn enemies or light unreachable [[Torch]]es. The Fire Rod drains magic from the [[Magic Meter]] when used. It is especially effective against [[Gibdo]]s, whose bandages can be burned away to reveal [[Stalfos]].

In {{FSA}}, the Fire Rod can only be found in certain areas. It can be used to defeat enemies and burn grass to reveal hidden items such as [[Power Gem]]s. This Fire Rod can either shoot fireballs or a continuous cascade of flames.<ref>{{Cite manual| quote= Shoot fireballs or light braziers. Hold down the A Button to shoot a continuous cascade of flames.| game= FSA| page= 31}}</ref> If Link gives the Fire Rod to a [[Great Fairy]] to upgrade it, the Fire Rod will act like the [[Cane of Somaria]], creating blocks that can be used as platforms. If Link uses the Fire Rod again, the block will explode, sending fire in four directions.<ref>{{Cite manual| quote= The level 2 Fire Rod can create blocks. If you wave the rod one more time, the block will explode, sending flame in four directions.| game= FSA| page= 31}}</ref>

[[Dark Link#Four Swords Adventures|Dark Link]] also uses the Fire Rod in some levels.  

In {{ALBW}}, the Fire Rod can be rented from [[Ravio]] for 100 [[Rupee]]s. Later on, it can be purchased for 1200 Rupees. It drains the [[Energy Gauge]] when used. The Fire Rod shoots a pillar of fire that moves in a straight line, which is capable of damaging even airborne enemies. Because it travels forward and most enemies flinch backward, the fire pillar is often capable of hitting the same enemy more than once. The Fire Rod can also be used to melt ice, including ice-based enemies, which can be defeated with one hit of the Rod.

By finding 10 [[Maiamai]]s, Link can give the Fire Rod to [[Mother Maiamai]] in order to upgrade it to the Nice Fire Rod. This upgraded version produces a much taller and wider pillar of flames, travels a larger distance, and deals more damage.

Fire Rods are one-handed [[Weapons in Breath of the Wild|Weapon]]s in {{BotW}}. They are weaker counterparts to [[Meteor Rod]]s. Fire Rods are not made of flammable materials and can safely be used around open flames or [[Scorching Climate]]s. Fire Rods are also not made of magnetic materials and cannot be manipulated with [[Magnesis]]. Fire Rods do not conduct electricity, and will float in sufficiently deep bodies of water. Fire Rods are imbued with [[Fire]] elemental energy, generating a ball of Fire that bounce around when swung. However, Fire Rods are fragile and will break easily if they make direct contact with objects or enemies. Fire Rods will also break simply from extended use. If Link executes a [[Spin Attack]] while wielding a Fire Rod, he will loose five blasts at once in different directions. They also provide minor resistance to [[Freezing Climate]]s. When thrown with the R button, Fire Rods will not leave [[Link]]'s hand and instead produce a ball of fire that will bounce in the direction they are thrown. Fire Rods will temporarily lose their magical properties if used excessively, requiring a brief cooldown period before they can be used again.

The Fire Rod appears as the first in the [[Magic Rod#Hyrule Warriors|Magic Rod]] class of Weapons.

*The Fire Rod was meant to appear in {{TMC}} sometime during development, but was later scrapped. The item can still be found in the game's code.<ref>[http://youtu.be/uvLzvUPW2DQ Zelda Minish Cap: HACKED - The Leveleditor]</ref>

*In {{TFH}}, one of the [[Communication Icon]]s features an item that resembles the Fire Rod. The icon for the "[[Drablands Challenges#Clear without any items!|Clear without any items!]]" challenges also resemble the outline of the Fire Rod.
