The Slingshot is a basic ranged weapon found in a handful of Zelda games. It's not particulary powerful and is usually replaced fairly quickly by the Bow.

Appearances

Ocarina of Time

Main article: Fairy Slingshot

Found in the Great Deku Tree, this slingshot can hold up to 30 seeds. Using it puts the player into a first-person perspective, and all shots arc downwards after traveling a while. Link can get a sack pouch capable of holding 40 seeds in the Lost Woods if he shoots the bulls-eye on the 'target' of the tree on the way to Saria, it has a Deku Scrub sitting on top of the tree in its hole. Link can acquire the 50 seed sack at the Shooting Gallery in Castle Town.

Oracle of Seasons

The Slingshot is the dungeon item found in the Dancing Dragon Dungeon. There are five types of ammuntion: Ember Seeds, Mystery Seeds, Scent Seeds, Pegasus Seeds and Gale Seeds. Each seed has it's own ability and attack power. This item is later replaced by the Hyper Slingshot found in the Sword and Shield Maze.

Twilight Princess

Link buys this slingshot in the beginning of the game for 30 Rupees at Sera's Sundries in Ordon Village. It comes with 50 seeds, but the capacity to carry more is never increased. It functions the same way as the Hero's Bow in Twilight Princess, except that it arcs downward after a while.

Skyward Sword

Link obtains the Slingshot after finding the Kikwi elder's friends. Unlike the Bow and Arrow, the Slingshot only requires the player to point and shoot with the Wiimote, so the Slingshot isn't too different from the Twilight Princess version. Link will simply take aim and shoot. This allows Link to fire at enemies quickly in battle when he can't take the time to aim with the Bow, due to its aiming mechanism.

The Slingshot can be upgraded to the Scattershot with 3 Jelly Blobs, 2 Amber Relics, and 2 Dusk Relics.
