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

This monstrosity of an item, along with several others on this list, are two-handed. This means that you lose out on your shield’s defence and the various abilities it provides you. So, to be worth wielding, these weapons need to go above and beyond which the Giant Boomerang certainly does.

With a base strength of 25, the Giant Boomerang is certainly not the most powerful armament in the game, especially for being two-handed, however, as a boomerang, it is one of the few melees which you can throw without risking losing it. Being able to stay at a distance and throw something is a great advantage as you avoid the risk of being one-shot by enemies, but with most thrown weapons you have to retrieve them afterwards.

On top of this, throwing requires no charge time and, if angled right, the Giant Boomerang can hit multiple enemies in one attack. Just don’t throw it at unarmed enemies as they might catch it, and a lizalfos with a boomerang is a scary thing indeed.
