Braziers,(ALBWA Link Between Worlds | EoWEchoes of Wisdom | CoHCadence of Hyrule)[2][3][4] also known as Torches,(ALttPA Link to the Past | OoTOcarina of Time | MMMajora's Mask | FSFour Swords | TWWThe Wind Waker | FSAFour Swords Adventures | BotWBreath of the Wild | TotKTears of the Kingdom | CoHCadence of Hyrule)[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Lamps,(LALink's Awakening)[15] and Torchlights,(MMMajora's Mask | MM3DMajora's Mask 3D)[16] are recurring Items and Objects in The Legend of Zelda series.

Location and Uses

Braziers are often found within caves or dungeons. They have a variety of uses from illuminating the surrounding area to being a key aspect in solving a puzzle or unlocking a hidden secret. Because of their nature of being lit or unlit, dungeons and other areas can be designed with the prospect of Link having to take advantage of this-lighting them to cause an event or sequence like unlocking a door or revealing a Treasure Chest.

Outside of being decorative, Torches are primarily used in puzzles. They can be lit by using a fire source such as a burning Deku Stick, a Fire Arrow, the Fire Rod, Din's Fire, or the Lamp. Sometimes they can only be lit by pressing a switch or clearing a room of enemies. In dark areas, Link can light a Torch to light up the room.

Some torches known as Face Lamps can appear as traps shooting fireballs at Link, similar to Medusas. They are usually invulnerable to any form of attack. Additionally, In Phantom Hourglass, some of them can be deactivated by hitting a nearby switch, or defeating all the enemies in the room.

Torches vary across the series from housing a simple group of sticks tied together as well as more elaborately designed metal ones. Twilight Princess has the most variety of Torch designs in the series, with various wooden Torches, stone Torches, and other, more ancient-themed Torches.

The Minish Cap

Torches serve as simple decorative objects, sources of light, Switches, and Enemies in The Minish Cap. Some (such as four in Deepwood Shrine and the four hidden in Trees in North Hyrule Field) are directly connected to Step Switches, which, when stepped on, illuminate the Torches and produce some kind of effect. Others (such as those in the Fortress of Winds, the Temple of Droplets, and the Palace of Winds) shoot balls of energy at Link, damaging him. These attacks can be blocked with the Small Shield.

Torches are a common Item that Link can use to carry Fire with him and spread that Fire to stationary Torches and other flammable objects such as grass, bushes, and wood. Torches can also be used as a Weapon, but they have a very low attack power of 2. After being ignited by contact with a Fire, Torches stay lit until Link puts the Torch away or it rains.[12] Torches are useful for navigating dark areas, such as the Thyphlo Ruins. Being made of wood, they will not attract Lightning during a Thunderstorm, and they do not conduct Electricity. They will float in Water if dropped.

After first exiting the Shrine of Resurrection and meeting the Old Man on the Great Plateau, Link can steal the Old Man's Torch. He will then ask Link what he intends to use it for.[17] If Link replies saying that he plans to use it as a Weapon, the Old Man will advise him to take his Woodcutter's Axe instead.[18] If Link tells him that he plans to use it to light Fires, the Old Man will tell him to be cautious.[19] If Link refuses to tell the Old Man what he plans to do with the Torch, he will tell him to do as he pleases and will let him be.[20]

Link can find Torches in the Lost Woods, which can aid him in navigating the area by lighting Torches and watching the direction the Fire blows with the wind. Torches are also useful for lighting all of the Blue Flame Pedestals around the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab and the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab with Blue Flame, as Link must travel long distances without the Fire burning out.

Torches belong to the Daily Use Goods equipment archetype, which consists of unconventional Weapons that Link can make use of.[21]

The following section is not part of the Zelda canon and should not be taken as such.


Cadence of Hyrule

The following section has content which has neither been confirmed nor denied as canonical by Nintendo.


Torches allow Cadence, Link, Yves, or Zelda to see in the dark, light up braziers, and burn stumps that may be blocking their path.[22] However, they have a limited use and go out over time, forcing the heroes to switch between different kinds of torches in order to light their way through caves and dungeons. They can be found in red Treasure Chests, dropped by slain enemies, or bought from a Shopkeeper for 10 Rupees. After a Game Over, Torches can also be found at the Fate's shop selling for 1 Diamond.
