Gauntlets are one of Link's weapons in Hyrule Warriors. It is unlocked in Adventure Mode by clearing grid G-14? as Link. The Gauntlets allow Link to use the Ball and Chain item from Twilight Princess. Link swings the weapon around his head, vaporizing enemies as he goes. In addition to the Ball and Chain, he has huge gloves reminiscent of the Mole Mitts or Digging Mitts combined with the Silver Gauntlets. He can burrow underground, lift large stone pillars, and pick up enemies and jars to throw them. The gauntlets turn black with shadow when Link's shadow costume is on.
"A power-gauntlet-and-flail-combo set, perfect for devastating attacks. Pressing the Strong Attack button allows you to pick up and throw enemies."
