'''Wizzrobes''' are recurring enemies in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. Their appearance has changed between games, but their attack pattern stays the same. They teleport around the room while casting magic at [[Link]]. | |||

{{Float|left|[[File:Red_Wizzrobe.gif]]}}In ''The Legend of Zelda'', Wizzrobes appear solely in dungeons. There are two color varieties, red and blue. Red Wizzrobes appear in front of [[Link]] and attack with a magic spell, whereas Blue Wizzrobes are less predictable, [[warp]]ing across rooms and rapidly firing their spells if Link is in their line of sight. Due to not reversing direction, the optimal approach to defeating a Blue Wizzrobe is to attack from behind. The Magical Shield may block Wizzrobe spells. Other than the [[Sword (The Legend of Zelda)|sword]], only [[bomb]]s can damage Wizzrobes. | {{Float|left|[[File:Red_Wizzrobe.gif]]}}In ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'', Wizzrobes appear solely in dungeons.

[[File:Wizzrobe-2.png|left]]Wizzrobes are first encountered within [[Misery Mire (A Link to the Past)|Misery Mire]], the sixth dungeon found in the [[Dark World]]. These enemies appear in a very similar fashion as they had in the previous two ''Zelda'' titles. They will appear, shoot a beam toward Link, and then fade away. After a few moments, they will appear once again. Each time they appear, they will face the direction that is closest to where Link is. | [[File:Wizzrobe-2.png|left]]Wizzrobes are first encountered within [[Misery Mire (A Link to the Past)|Misery Mire]], the sixth dungeon found in the [[Dark World]].

Wizzrobes in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' bear a striking resemblance to their ''A Link to the Past'' counterparts. As in ''The Adventure of Link'', the sword does no damage against them. Link must utilize bombs or [[arrow]]s to exterminate the vermin. | Wizzrobes in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' bear a striking resemblance to their ''A Link to the Past'' counterparts.

The Wizzrobe, misspelled '''Wizrobe''' in-game, makes its first 3D appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Its appearance is significantly different from previous Wizzrobes. Unlike its predecessors, the Wizzrobe is encountered as a [[Mini-Boss]] instead of an enemy. Link encounters the Wizzrobe five times during his quest to save [[Termina]]. | The Wizzrobe, misspelled '''Wizrobe''' in-game, makes its first 3D appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''.

Once Link obtains the [[Mirror Shield]], he can reflect the Wizzrobe's magic spells back at it. However, it is not too useful due to the Wizzrobe disappearing quickly, but the spell has to be reflected close to the Wizzrobe. | Once Link obtains the [[Mirror Shield]], he can reflect the Wizzrobe's magic spells back at it.

Wizzrobes in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' resemble toucans and emit screeching noises when Link approaches. They are more intelligent than previous counterparts. The first encounter with this foe occurs in the [[Tower of the Gods]].

Wizzrobes in ''Age of Calamity'' largely have the same moveset as in ''Breath of the Wild'', but can attack more frequently and are more resilient. As most other elemental enemies in the game, they're susceptible to rods and [[Rune]]s that are contrary to their elements, making their special attack meter be more vulnerable and easier to break. | Wizzrobes in ''Age of Calamity'' largely have the same moveset as in ''Breath of the Wild'', but can attack more frequently and are more resilient.

Wizzrobes conjure [[Keese]] to attack archers. The Wizzrobe usually flies around too fast to aim with much accuracy, but it is stunned for a few seconds after getting its magic reflected back at it by a swordsman, giving time for a charged shot or two. | Wizzrobes conjure [[Keese]] to attack archers.
