Ancient Arrows are created using ancient [[Sheikah]] technology. | |||
These arrows work much like [[Light Arrow]]s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', destroying most normal enemies in a single hit (although they won't drop any items or weapons). They will reduce a [[Guardian (Breath of the Wild)|Guardian]]'s max health by a third. If used on any type of boss, the arrow will deal 50 damage in addition to the attack power of the bow used. | These arrows work much like [[Light Arrow]]s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', destroying most normal enemies in a single hit (although they won't drop any items or weapons).

The Ancient Arrow is the result of a regular Arrow being combined with an Ancient dagger, which is a secret bit of Ancient Technology discovered by [[Robbie]]; this is the reason the arrow's point opens like a switchblade when nocked in a bow for shooting. The first was created solely by him, 20-30 years before [[Jerrin]] joined him from [[Kakariko Village (Breath of the Wild)|Kakariko Village]]. | The Ancient Arrow is the result of a regular Arrow being combined with an Ancient dagger, which is a secret bit of Ancient Technology discovered by [[Robbie]]; this is the reason the arrow's point opens like a switchblade when nocked in a bow for shooting.

==Trivia== | |||
*As shown in the E3 2014 trailer, the arrow requires Link to pull a trigger located on its hilt to release the dagger's blade. The trigger is hidden under a lid that Link lifts with his finger. | |||
*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlQn9Y3qhd4 It's been speculated by fans] that the daggers used for the arrows, due to their tremendous power and obliterating effect, may have been used for assassination purposes originally, as no other [[Breath of the Wild Ancient and Guardian Weapons|Ancient Weapon]] features such an effect. | |||
*Due to the assumption that they flee for safety after being defeated, it's shown that Ancient Arrows are the only way to effectively kill [[Yiga Footsoldier]]s and [[Yiga Blademaster]]s, as the arrows completely obliterate them. | |||
