[[File:Wizzrobe-2.png|left]]Wizzrobes are first encountered within [[Misery Mire (A Link to the Past)|Misery Mire]], the sixth dungeon found in the [[Dark World]]. These enemies appear in a very similar fashion as they had in the previous two ''Zelda'' titles. They will appear, shoot a beam towards Link, and then fade away. After a few moments, they will appear once again. Each time they appear, they will face the direction that is closest to where Link is.

The beams that Wizzrobes shoot out can be quite dangerous as even if Link has the [[Blue Mail]], the beams will still do two full hearts of damage. Fortunately these Wizzrobes aren't too difficult as a single slash from the [[Master Sword]] will defeat them.

A Purple variant of the Wizzrobe can be found deep within [[Ganon's Tower (A Link to the Past)|Ganon's Tower]]. Despite its Purple robe and skull face, this Wizzrobe is identical to the standard Wizzrobe. At this point in the game, Link can also use the [[Cane of Somaria]] to defeat multiple Wizzrobes at a time by causing the block to burst.

{{Float|right|[[File:Wizzrobe_MM.png]]}}The Wizzrobe, misspelled '''Wizrobe''' in-game, makes its first 3D appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Its appearance is significantly different from previous Wizzrobes. Unlike its predecessors, the Wizzrobe is encountered as a [[Mini-Boss]] instead of an enemy. Link encounters the Wizzrobe five times during his quest to save [[Termina]].

Link first encounters two Wizzrobes in [[Snowhead Temple]] as the guardian of the [[Fire Arrow]]s and the [[Boss Key]]. As one of the three Mini-Bosses in the [[Ancient Castle of Ikana]], Link once again fights a Wizzrobe. This time, however, once defeated, Link isn't rewarded with anything. Link also encounters the Wizzrobe in [[Stone Tower Temple]] and the [[Secret Shrine]].

The Wizzrobes in Snowhead Temple and the Secret Shrine use ice magic to attack Link. This will freeze Link and the floor. Even if Link avoids the actual ice, he could potentially be frozen by the ring of frost that forms from his magic. However, the Wizzrobes in Ikana Castle and Stone Tower Temple use fire magic that will bursts into several smaller fireballs and will also take more damage to defeat.

The Wizzrobe will teleport itself through the four pads which are located throughout the room. If Link gets too close to the Wizzrobe as it is appearing, it will teleport to another pad. It will try to attack Link by shooting out ice or fire. Once it has warped, Link should attack the Wizzrobe by using the Sword, [[Bow]], [[Bomb]]s, Blast Mask, or becoming [[Goron Link]] before it has a chance to attack him. Once Link has done enough damage to the Wizzrobe, it will split in four, meaning three of the four Wizzrobes are illusionary copies. Now, the real Wizzrobe will not teleport away if Link gets to close to it while still appearing, making the battle easier for Link. Link can use the map to detect which Wizzrobe is the real one or simply look at each Wizzrobe; the real one looks less like an illusion than the rest.

Once Link obtains the [[Mirror Shield]], he can reflect the Wizzrobe's magic spells back at it. However, it isn't too useful due to the Wizzrobe disappearing quickly, but the spell has to be reflected close to the Wizzrobe.

{{Float|left|[[File:Wizzrobe_(The_Minish_Cap).gif]]}}In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', there are three types of Wizzrobe (Normal Wizzrobe, Ice Wizzrobe and Fire Wizzrobe). They are similar to their ''Four Swords'' and ''Four Swords Adventures'' counterparts. A strike with the [[Flame Lantern]] eradicates them instantly.

A swordsman's battle with Wizzrobe is one of the many [[Dead Man's Volley]] fights that are reoccurring throughout the ''Zelda'' series. Wizzrobe will toss a ball in Link's direction and Link will need to slash his sword to hit the ball back. Wizzrobe will then hit the ball back towards Link, with this pattern repeating several times. Each time Wizzrobe hits the ball back, the speed at which it reaches Link will change, sometimes coming extremely fast, while other times come at a very slow rate. A standard Wizzrobe will need four hits to be defeated, while its stronger armored variety will take six hits to defeat.

Wizzrobes conjure [[Keese]] to attack archers. The Wizzrobe usually flies around too fast to aim with much accuracy, but it is stunned for a few seconds after getting its magic reflected back at it by a swordsman, giving time for a charged shot or two.
