'''Ancient Orbs''' or '''Stone Spheres'''<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Breath_of_the_Wild/comments/60904r/these_round_stones_say_stone_sphere_on_them_in/</ref> are spherical objects found throughout [[Hyrule]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'' | '''Ancient Orbs''' or '''Stone Spheres'''<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Breath_of_the_Wild/comments/60904r/these_round_stones_say_stone_sphere_on_them_in/</ref> are spherical objects found throughout [[Hyrule]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. | ||

Created as part of [[Sheikah|Sheikah Technology]], the orbs mainly serve as keys related to [[Shrines]] and are known throughout Hyrule as prized and mysterious objects, even worn as jewelry by monster enemies like [[Hinox]]. | |||
===Features=== | |||
Orbs can be found in multiple sizes. Overworld Orbs are usually one-off items which involve a quest to obtain and place in a [[Shrine Pedestal]], unlocking a path or [[shrine]]. Others, usually within shrines, are dispensed freely, and only one need find its way into each socket. Most of them can be also launched via [[Stasis]]. Ancient Orbs that can be lifted by hand have little to no concussive power, so they're ineffective as throwing weapons or to destroy breakable stone blocks. | Orbs can be found in multiple sizes.

An Ancient Orb is involved in the DLC-exclusive [[Kihiro Moh Shrine]]'s uncovering, as the player must recover it from inside the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]] to throw it into the giant chasm on the deep end of the hideout. The shrine itself features giant multi-colored balls similar to the ones on the ''[[Trial of Thunder]]''. | An Ancient Orb is involved in the DLC-exclusive [[Kihiro Moh Shrine]]'s uncovering, as the player must recover it from inside the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]] to throw it into the giant chasm on the deep end of the hideout.

==Trivia== | |||
*Although they're considered precious, rare and even sacred in Hyrule, Ancient Orbs are produced en-masse inside some [[Shrine of Trials|Shrines]], implying that they're considerably less esoteric and special than how they're perceived by common people in the kingdom. | |||
*Most orbs encountered are made of a stone-like material or the material used in Sheikah technology. As such, most of them have to be carried by hand, and while they can be subjects of [[Stasis]], they may not be susceptible to [[Magnesis]]. Said orbs also float in water, so they're not made of stone. | |||
