'''Magnesis''' is a [[Rune]] ability for the [[Sheikah Slate]] obtained in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. It allows one to move metallic objects.

The Magnesis Rune is obtained in the [[Oman Au Shrine]] while exploring the [[Great Plateau]]. Like [[Cryonis]], Magnesis is inexhaustible and cannot be upgraded at the [[Hateno Ancient Tech Lab]].

Magnesis is tremendously powerful, as it allows Link to lift metallic objects that could easily weigh several tons; however, it requires Link to have safe footing while using it, and dropping from even a small height will cause the rune's function to be interrupted. Aside from that, it has a limited range of reach and function, and it can only be used with Link aiming at the object, so Link cannot drag objects behind himself to use it. Link can lightly trot while using Magnesis, but it's interrupted if he starts to run. It's not necessary for metallic objects to be stationary to use Magnesis, just as long as they're locked upon within the range of the rune, and metallic weapons can be acted upon with the rune as long as they're not being wielded by enemies.

One of the most comedic uses for Magnesis is to create "Flying Machines", which require two relatively flat metallic surfaces to be placed on top of each other while Link uses Magnesis on the bottom one to lift it while standing on the top one. This requires careful commands, as brusque movements may cause the contraption to break apart. While using it, Link can travel anywhere on Hyrule or fly to unfathomable heights in the sky, but '''extremely''' slowly.
