Fans are recurring Items and Objects in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2] Fans go unnamed in Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild.

Location and Uses

Ocarina of Time



Fans appear inside the Shadow Temple and Inside Ganon's Castle. They operate on timed intervals and when active, they generate strong gusts of wind that can push Link in whichever direction they are facing. Link can resist Fans by wearing the Iron Boots, or he can gain additional distance from them by wearing the Hover Boots.

A Link Between Worlds



Several rooms in the House of Gales contain large Fans built into the floor, which allow Link to be blown between levels of the Dungeon.

Tri Force Heroes

Fans appear in several Levels of the Sky Realm, where they create Updrafts that lift the Links into the air, allowing them to reach higher ledges or cross gaps. Some Fans are always active, while others must be turned on with a Switch or temporarily activated by firing the Gust Jar at them.

The Mini-Boss of the Sky Realm, Gigaleon, can be stunned by activating a Fan as it flies overhead. Gigaleon can then be attacked by throwing a Bomb into the Updraft, and later, by throwing one of the other Links to launch him up to the Mini-Boss to strike it directly.

Breath of the Wild



Tears of the Kingdom

Fans are Zonai Devices that originate from the Sky Islands. However, they can also be found on the ground below. When they are struck, Fans will activate and generate strong gusts of wind that can propel Link in whichever direction they are pointing. However, Fans require energy from Link's Energy Cell or a Battery, or it will stop operating if it runs out of power. Fans can be deactivated by striking them once more.

Fans can often be found near Logs to build Rafts or near Mine Carts to power them.. They can be bonded to Objects with the Ultrahand ability, creating a larger Object that will be propelled forward. On its own, an active Fan will not fly in a straight line. However, attaching two Fans together gives them a stable flight path. A single Fan generates enough thrust to propel Link plus a Steering Stick into the air, and a Battery is able to power a Fan for about 25 seconds.
