Boomerang: Difference between revisions

In {{ALttP}}, Link can obtain a Boomerang in [[Hyrule Castle (A Link to the Past)|Hyrule Castle]]. It is contained in a [[Treasure Chest]] a few rooms before the prison where the [[Ball and Chain Trooper]] holds [[Princess Zelda]] captive. It appears as a Big Chest on the Map, but is in fact a Small Chest. If Link fails to collect the Boomerang in the Hyrule Castle, he can find another one in the house of the [[Sweeping Lady]] in [[Kakariko Village]]. If Link does not open either Chest, he can obtain a Magical Boomerang from a Chest in the [[Village of Outcasts]]. Link can also obtain a Magical Boomerang as an upgrade to the Boomerang at the [[Waterfall of Wishing]]. The Boomerang is blue, while the Magical Boomerang is red, faster and can be thrown farther.<ref>{{Cite|You got the Magical Boomerang! You can throw this faster and farther than your old one!|N/A|ALttP}}</ref> Both varieties can be used to stun enemies, hit [[Switch]]es, and collect items from a distance.

In {{LA}}, Link can obtain the Boomerang by completing the [[Link's Awakening Trading Sequence|Trading Sequence]] and using the [[Magnifying Lens]] inside a hidden [[Cave]] at the eastern side of [[Toronbo Shores]]. Here Link will meet a Goriya who will offer to give Link a Boomerang in exchange for an item. The Boomerang can be used to stun enemies, hit Switches, collect items from a distance, and cut bushes. The Boomerang is one of the two items able to destroy [[Anti-Faeries]], the other being the [[Magic Powder]]. It is also the only weapon able to defeat a [[Spark]]. It can also defeat certain enemies in one hit, such as [[Ghini]]s. The Boomerang is the most effective weapon against the final form of [[Nightmare]], as it can be defeated in one hit.
