The '''Boomerang''' is an iconic item of [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], appearing in almost every title in some shape or form. It works by returning to [[Link]] after he has thrown it every time, making it very versatile. It can be used in many different ways, such as picking up items, or stun and even defeat enemies, or to hit distant switches, and much more.

With the Boomerang, Link can easily defeat several enemies that previously were much more difficult, such as [[Shadow Nightmares#DethI|DethI]], the final form of [[Shadow Nightmares|The Shadow Nightmares]], who can be killed with one shot from the Boomerang.

The Boomerang makes a return in ''''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'''', but this time in many forms, including the standard Boomerang, [[Giant Boomerang]], [[Lizal Boomerang]], and more. This weapon can be used as a sword, through means of melee attacks, but can also be thrown like a traditional boomerang. If it hits a solid object, it will lose all momentum and drop to the ground. In order to retrieve a boomerang after it has been thrown, the player must hit the A button as it nears Link. In the case of this not happening, it will keep going for a small distance and drop to the ground, where it can be picked up.
