10 Strongest Weapons In The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

I know what you’re thinking, the Master Sword is the most influential sword in the Zelda franchise, and so it must be the best, right? Wrong. While it may be particularly strong in Ganon’s castle and against guardians, with a base strength of only 30 it leaves a lot to be desired.

Many seasoned Breath of the Wild players will know that you can upgrade the Master Sword, but unfortunately this required the Trials of the Sword DLC. This upgrade raises the Master Sword’s strength to 60, making it the best one-handed weapon in the game, and the increased durability allows you to strike over 200 times with it before it needs to recharge.

However, with a cost of real money and not everyone being able to blow £20 on an in-game stat buff, the Master Sword falls low on this list. However, the fact that it recharges means you’ll always have a trusty sword by your side, as soon as the darn thing recharges.
