<br>Zelda also wields a new slate this time around, that is far more reminiscent of the Switch than the Wii U, hinting that she either found a second for her own use, or Link no longer requires it thanks to the magical arm business he has going down. Yes, I am begging for Zelda to be playable , and all the pieces falling neatly into place like this doesn’t help matters.<br><br> <br>Tears of the Kingdom is giving Link new abilities , and among them is one called Fuse, which lets him combine any two items. Fuse will allow players to mix items that aren't usually put together, and that could lead to weird, yet useful products. Given the potential combinations that can be done with arrows, Link's arsenal for ranged weapons could expand in a creative <br><br> <br>On top of one of the sky islands, Link is shown fighting with a large creature. This being is made of square boxes, connected by tendrils of glowing greenish-blue energy that binds his body together. These tendrils were also present in the green golem seen in older trailers for this direct Zelda seq<br><br>There are two very distinct iterations of Link seen throughout most of the trailers thus far. One is dressed in his signature blue tunic with his snazzy new gauntlet, while the other is letting his hair down and freeing the nipple with luscious pecs and a more unconventional version of the new tool. It’s more akin to a tattoo and protruding objects than an item of clothing and raises further questions about exactly what this game has in store for us.<br><br> <br>In a similar vein to Fuse, the Ultrahand ability allows Link to bind objects together, being the method for creating the vehicles previously seen in trailers. Functioning similarly to the previous game's Magnesis ability, Link uses it first to pick up objects, rotate them, and move them around, being able to stick them to the surfaces of other objects once in proximity. In the demonstration, Link creates a rudimentary boat by fusing three logs and two strange mechanical fans, with the fans starting when hit and seemingly operating off of a limited, but replenishing battery gauge similar to Link's own stam<br><br> <br>Bombs have appeared in almost every game, making them nearly as iconic as Link's green tunic in Zelda . They are often used to break open secret walls in order to find hidden items or solve puzzles in addition to dealing damage to enemies. Like most of the iconic weapons on this list, Bombs are able to supplement the Master Sword and help Link in situations that can't always be solved through the use of a sw<br><br>Our heroes spent so long saving Hyrule only to plunge it into turmoil a second time, and their relationship will soon be tested through tough decisions and sacrifices we are yet to see unfold. Heavy is the head that wears the crown, and the limbs forced to adopt ancient powers to overcome unknown evil. The hopeful melancholy this land boasted in previous years has been torn away, replaced by an intense apocalyptic veneer that it will likely be our duty to wipe away. Zelda is a damsel in distress no more, and Link is no longer an untouchable hero who can hold the entire world on his shoulders. Tears of the Kingdom must confront these changing circumstances, and judging from everything we’ve seen, it likely will.<br><br> <br>Developers seem to be setting up Tears of the Kingdom to be a mix of classic Zelda elements and new features that will help set it apart from its predecessors. The weapons listed here are so iconic to the franchise that if they were omitted from TOTK , it could be seen as a strange choice, especially with their inclusion in BOTW . There seems to be high expectations for a follow-up to BOTW and its open-world to include more unique features, but there's also room for the iconic weapons in The Legend of Zelda: ** _Tears of the Kingdom**<br><br> <br>Having debuted in The Legend of Zelda , where players find it in the first dungeon, the Boomerang has made appearances in the majority of Zelda games. Considering that BOTW features several Boomerangs that players can find and use as Link, it seems natural that a direct sequel would also include those weapons or similar versions. If Tears of the Kingdom revisits classic <a href="https://Zeldatearsofthekingdomfans.com/articles/hyrule-s-lifeblood-elixirs-mastering-tears-of-the-kingdom-s-hearty-ingredient-hunt.html">Zelda Survival Tips</a> , then including at least one Boomerang is a necessity due to its long history within the franchise to the point that it's become ico<br> <br>Using Fuse in TOTK on a Fortified Pumpkin and an arrow could create a type of utility arrow to stun or blind enemies. A Pumpkin Arrow could bind a Fortified Pumpkin onto the head of the enemy it hits. Even if the Pumpkin Arrow didn't do damage when it hits an enemy, the utility of blinding an enemy for a set period of time could be a lifesaver for players in situations such as being outnumbe<br><br> <br>The next Tears of the Kingdom ability shown, Fuse, allows players to combine their weapons with objects and materials. From the footage, Link is shown fusing a rock onto the end of a basic stick to create a makeshift hammer, and a pitchfork with a long stick to create a comically over-sized spear. Importantly for BOTW's controversial weapon durability , fusing the weapons seemingly resets their durability and, at least in the case of the stick/rock fusion, greatly extends it, while also increasing the weapon's damage. Fusing weapons with materials, objects, or even other weapons can seemingly lead to specialized equipment, like the greatly extended range of the combined pitchf<br>
