- — In-game description
The Golden Gauntlets are an item from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. These gold-plated Gauntlets are even more powerful than the Silver Gauntlets. When worn, they grant Link god-like strength, allowing him to lift rock pillars which, based on their appearance, easily weigh several tons, then throw them behind him to reveal a new door or path. He cannot, however, walk while carrying one.
The Golden Gauntlets are found in the Shadow Temple section of Ganon's Castle. Link must use these to move a pillar in the Fire Temple section as well as one blocking the door to the Light Temple section. They can also be used to lift a pillar outside the castle that blocks the entrance to a Great Fairy's Fountain. The Great Fairy who resides within halves the damage that Link takes.
In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest, two stone pillars can be found in the Fire Temple section of Ganon's Castle, as opposed to one in the original version.
