The '''Ball & Chain''' is one of the essential items [[Link]] can acquire during his quest after defeating the armor come to life [[Darkhammer]].

This item is incredibly strong and is often associated with completely shattering ice and is the only usable item to defeat [[Freezard]], [[Blizzeta]] and one of [[Zant]]'s mimic forms though in [[Snowpeak Ruins]] Freezards can be killed using the cannons featured in the dungeon.

Aside from destroying ice this item acts similarly to a [[File:Item-bomb.png|frameless|56x56px]][[Bombs|Bomb]] that it can destroy boulders, defeat [[Beamos]], remove wooden bars and is incredibly heavy which if held onto can be used to activate switches often associated with[[File:Item-iron-boots.png|frameless|54x54px]] [[Iron Boots]].

The most unique properties of this item is the fact that it can be used as a shield and that it is on a chain so it acts somewhat of a ranged bomb although it pales in comparison to the [[File:Item-gale-boomerang.png|frameless|60x60px]][[Gale Boomerang]]'s range or bomb arrow combo achieved from the [[File:Item-hero's-bow.png|frameless|54x54px]][[Hero's Bow]].

The biggest drawback to the item is its range being fairly small however with precise aim it is possible to destroy some obstactles including some underwater.
==Trivia==
*Although it is incredibly heavy it is possible to hold onto the ball while falling directly down which will make Link sink underwater much more than usual.

*[[File:Item-piece-of-heart.png|frameless|56x56px]][[Piece of Heart|Pieces of Heart]] are considered solid objects the ball can interact with and if the ball collides with the heart it will actually be collected by Link.

*If the ball hits a spider web the web will burn away much like if a bomb were used.

*There is a hidden rat in a suit of armor in [[Hyrule Castle]] found in the first room with a [[Darknut]].
