{{Term/Store|Ancient Arrow|Ancient Arrows|Series, BotW|plural}} are items in {{BotW}}.

Ancient Arrows are a special type of [[Arrow]] designed specifically for defeating [[Guardian (Breath of the Wild)|Guardian]]s. There are a total of 9 [[Treasure Chest]]s containing Ancient Arrows, all found at [[Hyrule Castle (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Castle]]. Three of them contain one Ancient Arrow, five of them contain a bundle of 3 Ancient Arrows, and one contains a bundle of 5 Ancient Arrows. [[Link]] can also create them in exchange for [[Ancient Material]]s, Arrows, and [[Rupee]]s by using the Ancient Oven, [[Cherry]], at the [[Akkala Ancient Tech Lab]]. They can purchased individually, in bundles of three or five Arrows. Ancient Arrows deal moderate damage to [[Boss]]es, but heavy damage to Guardians. If an Ancient Arrow strikes a Guardian directly in the eye, the Guardian is instantly defeated. If used on enemies other than Guardians and Bosses, the enemy and its {{Plural|BotW|Weapon|link}} vanish. Enemies that vanish due to the Ancient Arrow will also not drop any [[Material]]s. Ancient Arrows do not disappear after being shot at an object, allowing Link to retrieve them if he misses an enemy. Ancient Arrows will penetrate and stick to certain objects, such as wood, and certain [[Material]]s, such as [[Hylian Shroom]]s. Ancient Arrows can cause ice blocks made from the [[Cryonis]] [[Rune]] to vanish. Ancient Arrows can also be used to instantly dispatch {{Term|BotW|Divine Beast Vah Medoh|link}}'s [[Cannon]]s. Ancient Arrows are one of the only means of defeating [[Dark Beast Ganon]], alongside the Light Arrows from the [[Bow of Light]] and [[Twilight Bow]] as well as [[Sword Beam]]s from the [[Master Sword]].

==={{SSBU|-}}===

An Ancient Arrow, alongside the [[Ancient Bow]], appears as [[Link]]'s Final Smash in {{SSBU}}. When activated, Link pulls out the Ancient Bow and shoots an Ancient Arrow, launching with great knockback any opponent trapped in its range.
