Appearances
The Legend of Zelda
Wizzrobes appear solely in dungeons in The Legend of Zelda. There are two color varieties, red and blue, blue being the harder of two. Red Wizzrobes attack Link with a fire spell whereas their blue counterparts are less predictable, warping across rooms. Due to not reversing direction, the optimal approach to defeating a Blue Wizzrobe is to attack from behind. The Magical Shield may block Wizzrobe. Other than the sword, only bombs to damage to Wizzrobes.
The Adventure of Link
Wizzrobes done red robes with white crosses. They can be defeated with their own magic by using the Reflect Spell.
- Main article: Carock
A notable Wizzrobe is Carock, boss of the Maze Island Palace.
A Link to the Past
Wizzrobes are found solely in dungeons within the Dark World. A single slash of the sword is enough to defeat them. A different, darker variation is found in Ganon's Tower. They are no harder to defeat, however.
Sprite of the Cursed Dark World Version
Link's Awakening
Wizzrobes in 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 arrows to exterminate the vermin.
The Minish Cap
In The Minish Cap there are three types of Wizzrobe (Normal Wizzrobe, Ice Wizzrobe and Fire Wizzrobe). They are similar to their Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures counterparts. A strike with the Flame Lantern eradicates them instantly.
Ice Wizzrobe
- Main article: Ice Wizzrobe
An Ice Wizzrobe is a Wizzrobe that will shoot ice beams at you which will freeze you. An effective way to kill an Ice Wizzrobe is to use a Flame Lantern and walk up to him. The Ice Wizzrobe will die instantly!
Battle Quest
Wizzrobe appear in Battle Quest as one of the bosses and later as a reoccurring enemy. Later in the quest, Wizzrobe appear in a stronger armored form.
Link's battle with Wizzrobe is one of the many Dead Man's Volley fights that are reoccurring throughout the Zelda series. Wizzrobe will toss a ball in Link's direction and Link will need to slash his sword to hit the ball back. Wizzrobe will then hit the ball back towards Link, with this pattern repeating several times. Each time Wizzrobe hits the ball back, the speed at which it reaches Link will change, sometimes coming extremely fast, while other times come at a very slow rate.
A standard Wizzrobe will need four hits to be defeated, while its stronger armored variety will take six hits to defeat.
"These magical foes attack from afar. They've only got one trick up their loosely hanging sleeves, and that's... well, magic!"
