If Link collects four [[Piece of Heart|Pieces of Heart]] (five in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''), he will create a full Heart Container. Pieces of Hearts can be found by completing side quests, getting good scores in mini-games, or searching various dungeons and overworld areas.

The remaining five can be found across the land of [[Hyrule]] in caves. Inside these caves, the [[Old Man]] offers Link either a Heart Container or a [[2nd Potion]].{{Ref|LoZ|57|[[Old Man]]}} It is not recommended to take the Potion instead of the Heart Container, because Link can purchase an unlimited amount at the [[Potion Shop (The Legend of Zelda)|Potion Shop]],{{Ref|LoZ|49|[[Old Woman]]}} but the Heart Container is gone forever if not chosen.

Unlike in later games, picking up a Heart Container does ''not'' refill Link's hearts to full, although at the end of a dungeon, picking up a [[Triforce Shard#The Legend of Zelda|Triforce fragment]] does.

==''Four Swords Adventures''==
Heart Containers work slightly differently in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. There are no Heart Pieces, so full Heart Containers can be found in chests. Heart Containers give the Links one extra heart and remain active for the duration of the stage. Once the Links complete the stage, they lose any Heart Containers they collected along the way.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'', Heart Containers can be obtained by returning four [[Spirit Orb]]s to a [[Goddess Statue]]. They can also be obtained by defeating each of the four [[Divine Beast]]s, though if Link has a full set of hearts, the Divine Beasts will give [[Stamina Vessel]]s. An additional Container/Vessel can be obtained with the completion of the [[The Champions' Ballad|DLC]]-exclusive [[EX The Champions' Ballad]], which awards an extra four Spirit Orbs.

=====Distribution, Armor and Temporary Hearts=====
===Distribution, Armor and Temporary Hearts===
 
Each of the Containers amounts to 4 HP for Link, meaning that he starts with 3 hearts / 12 HP. The completion of all [[Shrine of Trials|Shrines]] awards Link with a total of 34 extra containers that can be distributed between Heart Containers and [[Stamina Vessel]]s. In total, Link will have a total 120 HP having full health with 30 hearts (3 preset containers + 27 obtainable containers), or 108 HP having full stamina with 27 hearts (3 preset containers + 24 obtainable containers). It is not possible through regular means to have both full health and stamina due to the limited allotted containers/vessels given.

Depletion of the Heart Containers depends on the enemy's attack output, the weapon they're using, and the armor that Link is wearing. The particular armor's defense effectively multiplies Link's HP. The more the armor is upgraded (if enhanceable), the less hearts/HP Link will lose. Link tends to lose more hearts if attacked from the back. As long as Link has '''full''' heart containers at the moment of impact, and regardless of the amount of heart containers obtained, Link cannot be one-hit killed by overworld enemies, but his health will be reduced to a quarter of a heart at the bare minimum; the two exceptions to this are, of course, not having a full set of hearts, and also, being struck by [[Yiga Blademaster]]s at the [[Yiga Clan Hideout]] during stealth quests.

'''Temporary heart containers''' can be obtained by sleeping in [[Stable]]s across Hyrule and selecting the "Soft bed" option, or by consuming heart-replenishing meals that awards extra hearts. Yellow in color, as many as 27 temporary heart containers can be awarded. Obtaining a new Heart Container, or engaging in any heart-container related activity, momentarily removes temporary heart containers the player may have.

Said temporary heart containers are not replenished when Link clears [[shrines]], as the given monks only replenish actual hearts. The only way these containers are replenished is when Link is slain in battle and revived by [[Mipha's Grace]], as she will award Link with the health he had at the beginning of the battle, plus 5 temporary heart containers.

Line 135: Line 140:


The Master Sword can shoot blade beams of energy in the "awakened" 60 damage state when it's charged to throw it. The distance covered by the beams depends on Link's total hearts at full health (the more hearts, the more distance), and the rate and frequency of beam shooting can be enhanced by wearing specific armor sets like the ★★-tier [[Hero of the Wild Set]]. Each beam spends one point of damage on the weapon.

==''Tears of the Kingdom''==
Heart Containers behave much the same in ''Tears of the Kingdom'' as they did in ''Breath of the Wild''.
In ''Tears of the Kingdom'', Link can have a maximum of 40 Hearts totaling to 160 Hit Points. Link can receive additional ones by trading four [[Light of Blessing|Lights of Blessing]] to a goddess statue. In addition, six more heart containers can be obtained from defeating dungeon bosses, one additional container can also be obtained from completing the "Adventures in the Depths" side adventure. If Link chooses to spend his Lights of Blessing to max out his stamina, he will only be able to have 38 Hearts.
A minimum of four Heart Containers are required to open the door to the Temple of Time and a minimum of ten are required in order to access the Spirit Temple.
As before, Heart Containers can be traded to the Horned Statue to get Stamina Vessels in exchange.
If Link is damaged by Gloom, his maximum number of hearts is temporarily reduced. The number reduced depends on the amount of damage he received.

Similarly to ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', which it is derived from, ''[[BS The Legend of Zelda]]'' has a maximum of 16 heart containers - three at the start, eight from bosses, and five found around Hyrule. However, one of the scattered heart containers is permanently missable, available only from 20-28 minutes on the clock during Week 1 on the south-eastern beach where [[Level 6 (BS The Legend of Zelda MAP 1)|Level 6]] can be found during Week 3.

In addition, a timed event during Week 3 - from 32-42 minutes on the clock - temporarily gives the hero a full 16 heart containers regardless of how many they have acquired.
