-'''Light Arrows''', also known as the '''Arrows of Light''', are recurring [[Item|Items]] in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]].
+'''Light Arrows''', also known as the '''Arrows of Light''', are recurring [[Item|Items]] in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They are [[Arrow|Arrows]] imbued with the power of sacred light, and can be used as an alternative ammunition for the [[Bow]].
-==Overview==
+The Light Arrows can pierce and destroy very evil itself, and are typically the strongest ammunition in games they appear in, at the cost of draining more [[Magic Power]] than the other elemental Arrows. They fundamentally differ from their classic counterpart, the [[Silver Arrow|Silver Arrows]], in that they do not directly damage [[Ganon]], but rather stun and weaken his defenses so that [[Link]] can attack freely.
-The Light Arrows are regular [[Arrow|Arrows]] that have been empowered with sacred light, enabling them to pierce and destroy very evil itself. They are immensely powerful, usually able to one-shot any enemy they hit, but consume much more [[Magic Power]] than the [[Fire Arrow|Fire Arrows]] or [[Ice Arrow|Ice Arrows]] in games with such a mechanic.
-While it is commonly assumed that these Arrows are based on the [[Silver Arrow|Silver Arrows]], the two have fundamentally different properties; while the Silver Arrows damage [[Ganon]] directly and are the only weapon capable of killing him (with the exception of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', the Light Arrows weaken his defenses and enable [[Link]] to freely strike with the [[Master Sword]].
+==Location and uses==
 ===''Ocarina of Time''===
-In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the Light Arrows are given to [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] by [[Zelda (Ocarina of Time)|Princess Zelda]] in the [[Temple of Time]], after he has awakened all of the [[Seven Sages]]. They resemble regular Arrows, but with a yellow crystal covering the tip.
+In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the Light Arrows are entrusted to [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] by [[Zelda (Ocarina of Time)|Princess Zelda]] in the [[Temple of Time]], after he has awakened all of the [[Seven Sages]]. They cause any [[Enemies]] killed by them to drop a [[Purple Rupee]], and are required to destroy the magical barrier blocking access to the upper levels of [[Ganon's Castle]]. They are required to defeat Ganondorf, and will stun Ganon when shot at him, making them useful in the game's climax.
-The Light Arrows are required to defeat Ganondorf, and can be used on Ganon to stun him; Link also needs the Light Arrows to dispel the magic barrier blocking access to the upper levels of [[Ganon's Castle]]. While they do not inflict additional damage against normal enemies, they will cause anything they kill to drop 50 [[Rupee|Rupees]].
 ===''Majora's Mask''===
