Instead of gaining this treasure as a magical item, the user may choose to gain it in the form of a [[:Category:Spells|spell]] known simply as '''Fire''', for the same cost.  Unlike Fire Rod, Fire is not part of the {{Field|Cane}} field.  A caster of Fire can shoot the same projectile from any implement or weapon he wields, not just the Fire Rod, but requires more time between castings (without sufficient levels of [[Magic Power]]).
 
 
Normally, Fire can only be cast once every 90 seconds.  With one level of [[Magic Power]], the caster can do so every 30 seconds.  With two levels, it can be done every 10 seconds.  [[Category:Spells|Fire]] [[Category:Treasures with Variants]]
 
 
'''Fire''' is a racial perk for both [[Zora]] and [[Wizzrobe]]s.  As such, a member of either race can choose to gain it as a perk upon character creation. If a Zora or Wizzrobe chooses to gain this perk at some point after creation, the perk costs 15 rupees less than the listed price. A Zora who gains Fire may gain the '''No Instrument Required''' augment of it freely.  Other races acquire this treasure normally.

* The time restrictions on casting Fire may be reduced, as if the user had one more level in Magic Power. If the user already has two levels in Magic Power, the time restriction remains the same.

The Fire Rod is a magical item which can be used to produce an offensive spell-like effect. A Fire Rod appears as a scepter, usually comparable in length to the wielder's arm, colored red, with a dimly-glowing orange gem at its tip.

To activate rod, the user merely swings it while focusing his magic energy through it. From the rod's tip will launch a small, compact orb of fire--size comparable to a Hylian's head--which shoots forward with velocity comparable to a fastball and force comparable to a strong punch. This ball of fire inflames the impacted surface, if the target is flammable, then immediately vanishes. When aimed horizontally, the projectile can reach up to 30 feet (or 10 meters).

Normally, the wielder can use the Fire Rod's magical effect once every 20 seconds. The rod will not function until its energy is recharged.

Trivia

  • In A Link Between Worlds, the Fire Rod had a different effect, which is represented on Hyrule Castle with the Flame Rod.
  • A Weaponsmith can treat a Fire Rod as a material for the purpose of combining its effects with other materials or treasures into one weapon. For determining how many materials the Weaponsmith can craft into one item, treat this item as though it had a set cost of 20 rupees.
  • This item creates a similar projectile to the Fire spell, but by default can be used more often.
  • Magical items with a comparable effect include Ice Rod and Magical Rod.
  • This treasure is as one of several that can reduce the cost of Cannon Shout.
  • Fire Rod produces one of several projectiles that can be guided or deflected by a Cane of Mago.
  • The Fire Rod treasure canonically appears in the Zelda series, initially in A Link to the Past. More information about the canonical version of this treasure can likely be found on Zelda Wiki.
