Line 12:
* [[An Ice Person]]:
** There's Lizalfos with the ability to spit balls of Ice at Link. Fittingly, Link mostly finds them at the top of mountains or other snowy areas.
** SacredDivine Beast Vah Ruta uses ice objects it creates to attack Link and Sidon. {{spoiler|As it turns out, this was Waterblight Ganon's power all along, since it uses its ability again when Link fights it directly}}.
* [[And 99 Cents]]: Kilton's wares are priced in this manner.
* [[Apocalypse How]]: Class 0, but Calamity Ganon wants to make it Class 4, if not even worse.
** [[Apocalypse Not]]: The individual towns of Hyrule seems to be managing okay - for now - despite the disaster.
* [[Back from the Dead]]:
** Implied by the name of the shrine where Link was sleeping, "Shrine“Shrine of Resurrection"Resurrection”, though Purah affirms he was only seriously wounded, averting the trope.
** During the Blood Moon, Ganon resurrects enemies slain by Link so they can try to kill him again.
* [[Badass Princess]]: Zelda has fit the Trope before, but this is, without a doubt, the most badass version yet. She's been ''fighting Ganon nonstop'' for the past 100 years!
Line 30:
* [[Breakable Weapons]]: One of the game's selling points is that nearly every weapon and shield that you collect will eventually shatter after an certain number of uses.
* [[Bullet Time]]:
**Drawing your bow while you're in the air will slow down time to a snail's pace so you can easily aim your arrows. But thisThis will quickly drain your stamina, though.
**An similar effect occurs when you dodge an enemy's attack at the right moment, enabling you to hit your opponent multiple times in the span of a few seconds.
* [[Came Back Strong]]: Slay a whole village of Bokoblins, Moblins, or Lizalfos, and when the Blood Moon respawns them, one of a group might be the stronger, silver type. This can happen to Lynels too.
Line 76:
* [[Plant People]]: The Koroks.
* [[Properly Paranoid]]: Brigo has really reason to fear the end of the world, and he notices the right signals for it.
* [[Reality Ensues]]: Link isn't immune viato [[Exposed to the Elements]]; his health will become lowerdrain and he can even die of cold if you don't keep a heat source (like a flame) near him, or make him wear adequate clothes for cold.
* [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent]]: Lizalfos, for more than one reason. They're tougher than Bokoblins, and unlike Bokoblins, are good swimmers, often ambushing Link from water.
* [[Sealed Evil in a Can]]: The Entity inside the Horned Statue is a demon that makes deals with people. You could argue people were only foolish to make deals with her...untilher…until the point where she takes one of Link's heart containers to force him into a bargain.
* [[Sealed Good in a Can]]: Zelda, seeing as she's sealed ''herself'' in order to keep Ganon sealed.
** Also, the Sheikah monks, who have been inside the shrines in deep meditation for ''thousands'' of years until needed.
Line 85:
** Lizalfoes and Lynels often carry Shock Arrows; Link can use them too, and they are useful against enemies in water. They are required for the battle against Divine Beast Vah Ruta.
** Thunderblight Ganon is a lightning-themed boss.
* [[Starfish Robots]]: The Guardians have waysix more than four limbslegs and have cephalopodecephalopod-like heads.
* [[Super Drowning Skills]]: Link's ability to swim is handled rather realistically; he can swim as long as his stamina wheel holds out. However, he can swim just as well in plate armor as he can in a regular shirt and trousers. It's different for monsters: Bokoblins and undead enemies swim about as well as anchors, and it's relatively easy to defeat a group of them by luring them into water. The same goes for Guardians, but if you defeat them that way, you lose the loot they drop, which is often the biggest reason to fight them. Lizalfos, however, can swim like fish and often ambush Link from water.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: The evil Yiga Clan ''really'' likes Mighty Bananas; Link can use them [[Delicious Distraction| to distract members]] while [[Stealth Based Mission| infiltrating their hideout.]] {{spoiler|Monk Maz Koshia - the [[Bonus Boss]] of the Champions Ballad DLC - loves them too, but unlike the Yiga, the distraction trick only works on him ''once''.}}
** A journal you find in the ruins of Hyrule Castle library states that Zelda's favorite dessert is fruitcake, and also has the recipe.
* [[Trick Arrow]]: Link can use arrows that have elemental powers, like ice, fire and lightning.
* [[The Undead]]: Stalkoblins, Stalizalfos and Stalmoblins, [[Dem Bones|reanimated Bokoblins', Lizalfos' and Moblins' skeletons.]]
* [[Underground Monkey]]: Moblins and Bokoblins have Red (weakest), Blue, Black, Cursed, and Silver (toughest) varieties; Master Mode adds the even tougher Gold variety. Keese, Lizalfos, and Chuchus come in normal, Fire, Ice and Lightning varieties; Wizzrobes have the same types except "normal"“normal”. OctorocksOctoroks have normalWater, Forest, Rock, Snow, Water, Treasure, and Sky varieties. Talos and Pebbits have lava and ice variants.
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]:
** You can force Link to suffer in cold areas by removing his warm clothes, leaving him shivering. Conversely, you can also make him trudge through deserts and volcanoes in full metal armor.
** Unlike other games in the series, horses can actually die from being hit by attacks. While this mainly means that the monsters you encounter have another target, this doesn't stop you from murdering your own horse if you feel it's outlived its purpose, or if you find a horse with a nicer-looking design or even better stats. And it's ultimately unnecessary, since you can have up to 5 at a time in the stables, and can let go of the ones you don't want. Also, if you try to bring it near the lava in the Eldin region, the poor thing will burst into flames unlike other damage-registering NPCs.
** While NPCs can't be harmed, you can still swing your weapons at them to make them scared or annoyed. They'll have a different reaction to your bombs, where they'll look at it in terror, track where it goes if you toss it, and then freak out proper when you detonate the bomb. They also have a different reaction to your attempts at setting them on fire with the Fire or Meteor Rod.
** Fighting monsters has so many ways you can utilize: blowing them up with explosives, shooting elemental arrows at them, setting them on fire with a torch, blowing them off a cliff with a Korok Leaf...Leaf… the possibilities are endless! But what takes the cake is what you can do to skeletons: You can beat one with its own arm, then steal its skull and run away with it while the rest of the skeleton desperately tries to take it back, and finally kick the skull off a cliff, after which the skeleton throws a fit in frustration before collapsing into a pile of bones.
** Want to catch a whole school of fish but you’re too ill-equipped/lazy to swim after them? Simply let loose a Shock Arrow into their general area and watch them all float up to the surface of the water!
** An old lady in Kakariko Village yells at you for stepping in her garden where she's growing her plum trees. She'll also yell at you if you blow up a tree with a bomb. Blow up all the trees and she gets depressed that her trees are all gone.
