Balls are launched from huge openings in dungeon walls and careen down corridors and across rooms. They will either appear in an endless and varied stream from a larger opening or are fired one after the other from smaller ones. Multiple launch points can lead [[Link]] to dodge and weave between the continuous assault of the giant metal traps. Larger openings can also occasionally launch Gargantuan Balls. In {{BotW}} Balls have a spiky variation as well as a larger spiked ball, both act the same as normal balls. Balls hanging on chains also appear a can be swung back and fourth.
A larger type of {{Term|Series|Ball}}, called the {{Term|Series|Gargantuan Ball|link}}, also makes an appearance in {{TLoZ|Series}}.


===Gargantuan Ball===
==={{ALttP|-}}===
[[File:GargantuanBallALBW.png|left]]
In {{ALttP}}, {{Plural|ALttP|Ball}} appear mainly in {{Plural|ALttP|Dungeon|link}}, rolling around rooms causing damage to {{Term|ALttP|Link|link}} whenever he touches one. They serve as obstacles that {{Term|ALttP|Link}} must avoid while solving puzzles or fighting [[Enemies in A Link to the Past|Enemies]].
Gargantuan Balls are particularly huge steel boulders that often appear at the end of a stream of smaller Balls. If Link has not progressed far enough down a corridor to reach a point of safety, these huge Balls will be impossible to avoid and crash straight into him. In {{FSA}}, these Balls will also sometimes fall down from above when certain [[switch]]es are hit. They will then chase the [[Links]] and constantly hound them even down to lower floors. The only way to escape the giant metal traps is to pass through a small passageway and return to a higher floor.

In {{ALBW}}, {{Plural|ALBW|Ball}} appear similarly to their appearance in {{ALttP|-}}. {{Plural|ALBW|Ball}} are launched from huge openings in {{Term|ALBW|Dungeon}} walls and careen down corridors and across rooms. They will either appear in an endless and varied stream from a larger openings, or are fired one after the other from smaller openings. Larger openings can also occasionally launch {{Plural|ALBW|Gargantuan Ball|link}}.

In {{TFH}}, {{Plural|TFH|Ball}} appear in the beginning section of {{Term|TFH|The Lady's Lair|link}}. Four chutes at the room's north end launch {{Plural|TFH|Ball}} toward the {{Plural|TFH|Links|link}} while the trio attempts to solve a mechanical puzzle to gain entrance to the {{Term|TFH|The Lady's Lair|display=Lair}}. Rather than rolling back into small openings at the other end, these {{Plural|TFH|Ball}} will crash into the wall and crumble. {{Plural|TFH|Gargantuan Ball|link}} appear in the preceding {{Term|TFH|Level|link}}, the {{Term|TFH|Training Ground|link}}.

In {{BotW}}, the {{Term|BotW|Ball}} is an {{Term|BotW|Object|link}} used during the {{Term|BotW|Boom Bam Golf|link}} {{Term|BotW|Mini-Game|link}}. The objective is to hit the {{Term|BotW|Ball}} into the hole at the end of the {{Term|BotW|Tanagar Canyon Course|link}}, which is marked by a {{Term|BotW|Big Flag|link}}.<ref name="Modar"/> The ball can be moved by hitting it while it is under the effects of the {{Term|BotW|Stasis|link}} {{Term|BotW|Rune|link}}. {{Term|BotW|Modar|link}} suggests using two-handed {{Plural|BotW|Weapon|link}}, such as {{Plural|BotW|Hammer|link}}, to send the {{Term|BotW|Ball}} longer distances, but he also warns {{Term|BotW|Link|link}} not to overdo it.<ref>{{Cite|Two-handed weapons like hammers can really send the ball flyin', but ya gotta take care not to overdo it.|Modar|BotW}}</ref> For shorter distances, {{Term|BotW|Modar}} tells {{Term|BotW|Link}} to use one-handed {{Plural|BotW|Weapon}}, but they break more easily.<ref>{{Cite|Swords and one-handed weapons are better for short distances, but be careful ya don't break 'em playin' the game!|Modar|BotW}}</ref> Another strategy {{Term|BotW|Modar}} suggests is hitting the {{Term|BotW|Ball}} with as much power as possible.<ref>{{Cite|Or ya can just go hog wild on the {{Color|BotW Red|ball}}! The more power ya put inta yer swing, the further it goes flying! FOOOOORE!|Modar|BotW}}</ref> Any movement by the {{Term|BotW|Ball}} is considered a stroke.<ref>{{Cite|If the {{Color|BotW Red|ball}} moves even an inch, that counts as {{Color|BotW Red|a stroke}}. Huh, I guess those rules ain't so simple after all. Whoops!|Modar|BotW}}</ref>
