Using amiibos in ‘Breath of the Wild’ add new elements to the game
Until recently I had never used an amiibo in a Nintendo game. I had hear of them before, but didn’t see much reason for them. This all changed when I bought a copy of Breath of the Wild. After using them I can see why gamers like them. They add new elements to the game and give some amazing things. Here is a list of what some of the amiibos give you in Breath of the Wild.
30th Anniversary Link Amiibo
It gives you a piece of the Hero’s outfit. They are the cap, trousers and tunic of the Hero. It may also give you a random weapon. It also comes with four barrels, which can be broken and give some rupees.
Breath of the Wild Zelda Amiibo
This one gives you a random shield, usually a royal guard shield. There is also a chance to get the hylian shield, which is the best shield in the game. You may also get a star fragment, an opal or an amber. It also drops herbs, flowers and vegetables.
Ganondorf Super Smash Bros Amiibo
This one gives you a cool weapon called the Sword of the Six Sages. It glows and looks awesome. You can also end up with certain gems like opals, amber or other gems. Sometimes the chest will have rare monster part from a Lynel or Hinox. It will also spawn a few barrels when broken will give some arrows and rupees.
Breath of the Wild Archer Amiibo (Link)
When you use this amiibo, you will get some meat, fish and five elemental arrows. Once in a while it may give you a bow too, usually the royal bow.

This amiibo gives you a few cool things. You get the traveler’s bridle and saddle which you can use on any horse you have in a stable. It also gives out assorted weapons and elemental arrows. It will also drop a number of different mushrooms too.
Link Super Smash Bros Amiibo
This is one of the better amiibos I got to use in the game. It is only way you can get Epona. She looks stunning in this game. She comes with good stats and a gentle temperament. Sadly she can’t be renamed though. It also gives you the twilight outfit. It will randomly give you the trousers, cap or tunic of twilight. You can also get assorted weapons, shields and elemental arrows. It will also drop assorted fruits and cooking materials.
Twilight Princess Wolf Link Amiibo
This amiibo doesn’t provide any items, but it does give you a wolf companion. He starts out with three hearts, but you can give him more hearts by going through a side quest in Twlight Princess HD. This wolf with help you attack enemies and hunt wild game.
This is only some of the amiibos you can use in Breath of the Wild. There are many others that give out different armor, weapons and other things. This summer some new amiibos are coming out that will make more things available for this game. Try them out and see just what you may get.
