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

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

[[ | The Slingshot in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' is sold by [[Sera]] at her shop in [[Ordon Village]], [[Sera's Sundries]], for 30 [[Rupee]]s.<ref>{{Cite|TP|4063|[[Sera]]}}</ref> Link can buy it once he has used the [[Fishing Rod]] to catch two [[Greengill]]s, one of which Sera's cat will take back to their master. If Link then enters Sera's Sundries, Sera will be very happy, telling Link her cat caught a fish all by himself.<ref>{{Cite|TP|3343|Sera]]}}</ref> Because she is so happy, she will give will a [[Bottle]] of [[Milk]].<ref>{{Cite|TP|3340|Sera}}</ref> Now that Sera is happy again, Link can shop at her shop again, and subsequently the Slinshot. | ||

After purchasing the Slingshot, Link can head to the small area where his [[Link's House|house]] can be found. Here, [[Malo]], [[Talo]], and [[Beth]] will be very excited to see Link has the Slingshot.<ref>{{Cite|TP|3545|[[Talo]]}}</ref> They will then set up a sort of targetting practice area, where the goal is to shoot down all the targets and scarecrow.<ref>{{Cite|TP|3570|Talo}}</ref> After doing those, the kids will be amazed.<ref>{{Cite|TP|3582|Kids of Ordon}}</ref> This part serves as the tutorial for the slingshot, allowing the player to learn how to use it in a way that seems part of the story. | |||
It functions the same way as the [[Hero's Bow]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', except that it arcs downward after a while. It is most useful against [[Walltula]]s, as usually they hang on vines and cannot be killed with a [[Sword]]. After Link acquires the Hero's Bow from the [[Goron Mines]], the Slingshot has no use, as everything it did the bow does better. | |||

Link obtains the Slingshot after finding the [[Bucha|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. | Link obtains the Slingshot after finding the [[Bucha|Kikwi elder's]] friends.
