Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Non-Canon Information
Main articles: Fire Rod, Ice Rod and Lightning Rod

Rods are Items that can be wielded by all Warriors in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, as well as by Wizzrobes. Located on the left bumper wheel with Apples, they are limited charge attack items that inflict conditions on Enemies, giving the Weak Point Gauges of Elemental Enemy of the opposite element a cracked effect and making them drain faster. The Fire Rod lights Enemies and Bomb Barrels on Fire, and cracks the Gauges of Ice Enemies. The Ice Rod freezes Enemies in place and affects the Weak Point Gauges of Fire Enemies. The Lightning Rod electrocutes Enemies and cracks Gauge of Enemies exposed to Water, Rain, or Elemental Enemy related to Water, such as Waterblight Ganon.

Rods are obtained when their respective Wizzrobe is first slain. The Fire Rod is first obtained when the Warriors slay their first Fire Wizzrobe in the "The Battle of Hyrule Field" Scenario, and the other two are obtained from Ice and Electric Wizzrobes respectively.

They each need their own type of elemental energy as fuel for their attacks, and the amount of charges they have carries over into future battles. While they innately have three charges, completing the "The Research of Rods" and "It Takes Two" Side Quests both reward the Warriors with one additional charge to all Rods. The energy needed to power individual Rods can be found by either slaying Elemental Enemy of the associated element or by smashing open Iron or Wooden Boxes.
