It's support information. Everything I supplied came from direct canon.

To hammer the point that something that's non-canon should apply to the canon?

Smash Bros was a bad example tbh, but tbh yeah, Link Between Worlds and Breath of the Wild do make Light Arrows look more laser like I suppose.

As I said above, again, it was supposed to be a note.
Also, it serves as a means of restating what is already known. In which case, it's valid.

@Dragon BOTW arrows never fire at a straight line. They always lob.

@Glass.
I linked the wrong one to you. I should've linked the Twilight Bow rather than the Bow of Light.

Seems a bit game mechanics-ey. Do they ever do it on a cutscene?

Technically, in a cutscene, Ganon shuffles his feat at the same speed as the Light Arrows ovo.
In all seriousness, unless there's something in BotW, not to my knowledge. Yet, why would that be game mechanics? He's scripted to do that when you fire a Light Arrow at him. It's not that the attack just so happened to collide with his swipes and charges.

@Glass The "Light Arrows" from BOTW used against Dark Beast Ganon do fire in a strait line.

@Cal I'm very skeptical of this. The twilight princess one only shoots when you have zelda get up close to ganondorf to have her fire the shots at him. We've never seen her use it from afar.

Actually, you see an instance where the AI gets hit and fails to deflect it

She shoots regardless every few seconds. She also misses more than she hits due to Ganondorf moving.

That only happens when he gets hit in the back, distracted by other arrows or actions so he doesn't see the one to the back coming.Kepekley23 said:

Why would it be a game mechanic? Also, no, its never in a cutscene. It's only from an amiibo

If those arrows hit him, he'd be very hurt. He has no physical weak spots (in that timeline). He was parrying it, but his giant pig form makes it hard to make out.

I also linked (hehe, Link-ed) the WW Ganon fight, where he frontflips over a Light Arrow fired by Zelda. I ninja'd you with it by a second or two so you may not have seen it.

Well, if this fulfills our standards of working sufficiently like light, I suppose that it can be used.
I mean, tangible light recurrently somehow exists within fiction. The Marvel character Lightmaster had it as the entire point of his character, and Kizaru of One Piece is another example.

Okay, I've rewatched very closely the battle against Yuga, and yes, he blocks them. Would Calamity Ganon scale?

hold up, are WW light arrows actual light? I mean they do travel in a straight line, and it is Cannon that they reflect off of Link's shield.
but for Twilight princess, I don't think this can apply at all, since the only time light arrows are used is when you are on horseback, which has nothing to do with character speed.

If it scales to Ganondorf when he's off his horse, wouldn't it scale to Link off of his horse?
- 8,377
- 3,045
It would scale to every Link who has ever fought Ganon

Ganon has shown the ability to fly faster than his horse runs; he really doesn't even need a horse to begin with.

Uh...
Perhaps I misunderstand this feat, but even if they are real light, if they aren't projecting out of something but are just made of light, even if they do have the same properties, we cannot be sure it is the same speed. If we magically create bullets and fire them at somebody, it might not be the same as firing them from a gun
