The Fire Rod is a recurring item found in the Legend of Zelda series. This rod shoots a blast of fire whenever Link waves it, allowing him to ignite objects and enemies, as well as lighting torches. It is similar to the Lantern in function, but it has longer range.

The Fire Rod as it appears in-game

The Fire Rod is found in Skull Woods. It is needed to successfully defeat Trinexx, the boss of the Turtle Rock dungeon. It requires Magic Power to use.

[edit] The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures

The Fire Rod can be found randomly on item pedestals and will shoot out a stream of fire. If Link meets a Great Fairy, she will upgrade the Fire Rod to Level 2, allowing Link to place a red block on the ground when he swings the rod. If Link swings the Fire Rod again, the block will explode, sending out fireballs in the four cardinal directions. The effect of the Level 2 Fire Rod is similar to that of the Cane of Somaria.

"They're weak against fire, so hit them with your Fire Rod!"
— Ice Wizzrobe Figurine

Although it does not appear in-game, the Magic Rod shows up in the text of the game several times. It is seen with a price tag of 350 Rupees, and also has a game script of Link obtaining it. Also, the Ice Wizzrobe Figurine mentions the Fire Rod, suggesting it was an item that was removed from the game late in development possibly obtained instead of or an upgrade to the Lantern found in the Temple of Droplets.
