It has been suggested that the portion of this page concerning Water Pot should be made into its own page.
Should the target page already exist, this content should be merged into it where appropriate. Discuss this on article's talk page.
Not to be confused with Magic Jars.

Template:Object Pots, also known as Jars, are objects found in most games in the Zelda series.

Uses

Jar in A Link to the Past
File:Pot(LA).gif
Jar in Link's Awakening

When broken, Pots reveal items such as Rupees, Hearts, Fairies, Bees, Arrows, Bombs, Water, and even Ooccoo. They can be found in houses and Dungeons, and sometimes they look like vases. Pots can be broken by throwing them, rolling into a wall with a shelf that houses them, or striking them with a sufficiently powerful Sword.

Varieties

Water Pot

Large pots filled with Water can be found in The Wind Waker, used for temporarily cooling and solidifying magma so Link can travel across safely. These are found mainly within Dragon Roost Cavern. In Four Swords Adventures, Water Pots are found in houses and Caves. They are used on The Mountain Path to extinguish swaths of flames.

Water Pots serves the same purpose as Mega Ice from Oracle of Seasons and Spirit Tracks and Water Fruit from Skyward Sword.

Expensive Vases

Found only in The Wind Waker in the House of Wealth, these are shiny blue and white Vases that decorate the first floor. If Link breaks one of these Vases while Mila's Father owns the house, he will not be allowed to leave until he pays the necessary amount of Rupees needed to replace the Vases. When ownership of the auction house passes to its new owner, after Link defeats the Helmaroc King at the Forsaken Fortress, Link can break as many of these Vases as he desires without a single fine; they will be replaced the next time he enters the mansion.

Flying Pot

Main article: Flying Pot

In Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Four Swords Adventures, The Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass, there are Flying Pots that come alive and fly at Link in order to attack him. When broken, these Pots contain items such as Rupees and Hearts.

Warp Jar

Main article: Warp Jar

Featured only in The Wind Waker, Warp Jars allows Link to Warp to other unblocked Warp Jars in a Dungeon. These are useful for quickly navigating a dungeon.

Trivia

  • In A Link to the Past, Jars are replaced by Skulls in the Dark World.
  • Link's fascination with breaking Jars is made fun of in Twilight Princess when he examines them eagerly in Hena's Fishing hut,[1] and he can even be expelled from the fishing hut after multiple attempts to break those Jars with roll attacks into the wall.
  • If Link breaks a Water Pot over an ignited Boko Stick, it will douse the flames.
