On silent wings fly the terrors – and saviors – of the night.

Through Hyrule’s history, smiths continually invent more weapons, whether to slay the forces of darkness or light. A particular category of weapons involves the use of flexible materials or chains in order to create Extending weapons. Though less accurate than a typical sword or spear, these weapons allow their wielders to keep their foes at a distance, and even to use potent melee Techniques while out of their target’s reach.

Below is a list of new weapons and attacks especially favored by those who expect to deal with enemies on the ground and in the air. The whip in particular is favored among those who hunt blood-drinkers like the Achemen!

Witches have been a small, recurring part in the Zelda franchise since its inception, primarily taking the form of an old woman who sells Link restorative potions. Part of Link’s journey from the very first game onwards, it’s not unfair to say that many players would never have rescued Zelda if not for these old crones’ assistance.

However, there are other witches that various Links interact with, such as Maple and Irene, who take a more active role in the world. They both help and hinder Link in his quest, as they bounce around on their own adventures.

Of course, these witches can only move so quickly thanks to their signature conveyance: the Witch’s Broom. And in this article, we’ll talk about what a Witch’s Broom can do in your own Reclaim the Wild game, as well as how to craft your very own personalized, customized, souped-up Broom!

Reclaim the Wild is a game about, among other things, resource management! You have to manage your materials, your weapon durability, and even your character’s (and companions’) Health, Magic, and Stamina!

Health, of course, is your character’s most important resource, since without it they would be Helpless or even dead! If you’re using Master Mode rules, Health also determines when you suffer a nasty Injury.

While Health is what keeps your Hero upright and in the fight, there’s really only one way to use it right now: Burning it, by getting punched in the face. But what if we looked into using it in other ways?

When we were making new Spells in a previous article, there was one that demanded lots of extra attention: Zelda’s ability to summon a Phantom in Super Smash Bros. It’s a Spell we’ve long wanted to include in Reclaim the Wild, but we always knew it’d be a little more complicated than most other Spells.

Well, what’s a better start to the Halloween season than summoning a warrior spawned from darkness? Zelda’s Phantom is a long-winded Spell, but we hope it provides all the fun you’d expect from creating a hulking, heavily-armored spirit to command on the battlefield. (You’ll have to provide the Jojo references yourself, I’m afraid.)
