Though it is intended for Link to use the [[Master Sword]] to deflect the volley, it has often been possible to use [[Bottle]]s as well. This is an intentional inclusion by the developers in reference to ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', where a glitch allowed the [[Bug Net]] to be used in the volley.

This is the first time the Dead Man's Volley appears in the Zelda series. When Link confronts the wizard [[Agahnim]] in [[Hyrule Castle]] after obtaining the [[Master Sword]], their battle consists entirely of the Volley.

Due to a glitch it is also possible to reflect Agahnim's volley with the [[Bug Net]]'s swing, if timed correctly. Some players even prefer the net to the Master Sword.

Agahnim's Shadow, one of the [[Shadow Nightmares]] uses this, similar to the true Agahnim in ''A Link to the Past''.

The Dead Man's Volley occurs twice - first in battle with [[Phantom Ganon (Ocarina of Time)|Phantom Ganon]], where the second phase requires Link to volley back a series of glowing orbs. If he successfully outlasts Phantom Ganon, the boss is hit by his own attack and falls to the floor, vulnerable to sword slashes.
The second time is in the fight with [[Ganondorf (Ocarina of Time)|Ganondorf]] himself. The basics are similar; but once he is stunned, he remains floating and must be shot with a [[Light Arrow]] to cause him to fall and become open to sword attacks. There is also an alternate attack involving a spread of energy, and this cannot be volleyed back in the normal way, although Ganondorf is open to a Light Arrow shot during the summoning animation.
While it is primarily intended for the player to use their sword to reflect the orbs, an empty [[Bottle]] will also work, similar to the Bug Net in ''A Link to the Past''.
