The Stamina Wheel, also known as the Stamina Gauge, measures Link's stamina in Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild. It is depleted by doing strenuous activities such as running, climbing, swimming and pushing boulders.
Appearances
Skyward Sword
Link can refill his stamina gauge by running over Stamina Fruits or drinking a Stamina Potion.
Breath of the Wild
Link can cook "Energizing" Meals and Elixirs to recover different amounts of stamina. There are also "Enduring" Meals and Elixirs that extend the Stamina Wheel with extra, yellow stamina which does not return after being depleted. The green stamina wheel can be increased by 1/5 by exchanging four Spirit Orbs for a Stamina Vessel at a Goddess Statue. A maximum of three full green rings (1 base, 2 extra), plus two yellow rings can be held. This means ten Vessels (from forty Orbs) in total for the extra two green rings. If the player chooses full hearts (30 total, 27 acquired), there will be only enough vessels for 1.4 extra green rings (1.6 with The Champions' Ballad DLC); whereas full stamina will limit the player to a maximum of 27 permanent hearts (28 with DLC).
Link can exchange between Stamina Vessels and Heart Containers at the Horned Statue in Hateno Village at a total cost of 20 rupees, after the statue pays 100 rupees to take a vessel and charges 120 rupees to give it back. The first exchange does not cost rupees, but every exchange henceforth comes at a charge.
Effects
The stamina wheel's effects depend on different circumstances. Complete depletion of the wheel will cause Link's actions to cease momentarily in different ways depending on the given activity:
- If swimming, Link will drown and lose one heart;
- If climbing, Link will lose his grip and fall; this will result on either a significant loss of hearts depending on the height, and even death;
- If taming a horse or a rideable animal, Link will fall from it;
- If running, Link will perform a slow trot until the wheel replenishes;
- If performing a spin attack with a double-handed weapon, the wheel will be depleted and Link will perform a finisher attack; if Link tries to perform another spin attack, he'll perform an attack while stumbling.
- If paragliding or performing a mid-air arrow shot, Link will fall from the height and incur a loss of hearts, or die.
The wheel depletes at different rates also depending on Link's actions. Bounding while climbing a wall or swimming will deplete the wheel faster, but Link will cover the distance at a shorter time. Aside from stamina-replenishing meals and elixirs, said depletion can be ameliorated through different ways, like using the Climber Set or the Zora Set for faster climbing and swimming respectively, or by consuming speed-enhancing meals and elixirs.
There are places in Hyrule where not even 3 stamina wheels are enough to scale, like the deepest parts of Tanagar Canyon, and there are water-bound locations that cannot be reached by solely swimming, like Eventide Island, requiring the aforementioned stamina-replenishing meals and elixirs to do so.
