Link has more control over his sword in this adventure than ever before. By way of the Wii Motion Plus, the sword now can swing in whichever direction the player chooses, giving the experience of 1:1 swordplay. Often, this proves to be a very vital point in the game. Offensively, many enemies must be defeated by swinging the sword certain ways. Such is the case for Deku Babas, where Link must slash them in the way their mouth is open (either vertically or horizontally) to defeat them. Another example is the Mechanical Totem Pole, which must be sliced horizontally twice, and then stabbed to defeat. Other enemies will try to cover parts of their body from attack, whereas Link will have to attack the revealed areas to defeat the enemy. The Skulltula is a great example of this, as Link has to hit it so it becomes stunned and stands up on its hind legs, thus revealing a weak point. Others may have defenses up that must be broken with Sword, like the Spear Moblin, in order to defeat it. The player must use a variety of techniques to defeat a variety of enemies.

The sword also plays a key role in getting through doors. Certain doors will have an eye that will follow Link's sword as long as he is standing on a platform. Moving the sword in a circular motion will spin the eye around, causing a dizzying affect and allowing for the eye to be struck. Once destroyed, the doorway will be accessible to go through. A slash-able gear appears on another door version, which Link must quickly slash in two different directions in order to open.

One of the most interesting features of the sword is dowsing mode. To go into dowsing mode Link holds the sword strait forward. When Link goes into dowsing mode the screen changes to first person and you have to pick what you are looking for be it important items, heart pieces, rupees, or even Zelda herself. When Link is facing the direction you need to go to find the item, the sword emits a loud noise. This is going to play a key role in the game especially when it comes to finding Zelda.

The Zelda team has finally brought back the Sword Beam which is now call Skyward Strike. To charge the sword Link has to point his sword skyward until the light reaches the tip of the sword. You can then swing your in any direction to release the sword beam. This is going to both be used to attack enemies and to send large blue, silver boxes with the bird symbol called Goddess Boxes on the ground up to the sky where it will be replaced with a chest.

The sword also plays a key role in solving some puzzles. Certain locks must be opened by slashing the sword in a certain direction. Eyes appear on or around doors and will follow Link's sword. Moving the sword in a circular motion will spin the eye around, causing a dizzying affect and allowing for the eye to be struck. Once destroyed, the doorway or gate will be accessible to go through.

From the beginning of the game, Link carries around this simple sword, though there isn't much use for it in Skyloft, high above the evil surface.

Link aquires this sword after Zelda is taken to the land below. Fi leads him to a secret room inside the goddess statue that is holding the sword. Link is able to use this more powerful sword on his quest to find Zelda. Lord Ghirahim cites this sword as the only reason Link still lives after their first encounter at the end of Sky Temple. Besides allowing Link to communicate with Phi, the Goddess Sword also has the power to unleash a sword beam after it's raised skyward while his hearts are full. The game will revolve around upgrading the Goddess Sword into the Master Sword.

The Master Sword, which appeared in Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, A Link to the Past, and arguably the Oracle games, is first forged in Skyward Sword. It is the fully upgraded form of the Skyward Sword, and resembles the Skyward Sword's spirit Phi. Since Phi isn't seen in any other game, it's possible that she may have to make some sacrifice to make this transformation. This sword has the power to repel evil. It will eventually be placed in the Pedestal of Time within the Temple of Time as a key to the Sacred Realm.

The iron shield is the second shield encountered in Skyward Sword and offers a much greater resistance to attacks then that of the wooden shield. While melee attacks and projectiles can still be blocked through the use of the nunchuk the amount of damage sustained by the shield is largely reduced making it far more durable.

The price point of the Iron shield will far higher than that of the wooden shield, with more valuable and durable materials used to craft the shield, any potential buyer would have to fork over more than a few rupees to own it. With a much higher breaking point, the cost of fixing such a shield would also be much greater than that of the wooden shield.

The [[Sailcloth]] in this game is very similar to the [[Deku Leaf]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''Wind Waker although it is cloth and sports the bird symbol seen in many other places in the game. The sailcloth is essentially a parachute and is going to be used both for a safe landing when jumping off of your bird and to send Link back up from Hyrule to Skyloft. Another use for it is catching air vents and propelling Link to previously unreachable areas.

This lyre originally belonged to Zelda. She holds it when she jumps down to Link after his victory in the birdriding competition. Eventually, Link receives this instrument and can play it by pressing up on the D-pad. The lyre will have a similar function to the Spirit Flute, Wind Waker, and Ocarina of previous games. Zelda's lyre is similar to Sheik's lyre in Ocarina of Time. They may be the same or could be based off of another.
