Characters & Builds

While The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages primarily features Link as the sole playable character, understanding how to optimize his abilities and equipment constitutes his 'build'. This section focuses on maximizing Link's effectiveness through strategic item usage, ring selection, and companion utilization. There are no traditional 'classes' in this game, but how you equip Link significantly impacts gameplay.

Link's build revolves around his inventory. Choosing the right combination of active items (A and B buttons) for a given situation, along with the most beneficial ring, can turn challenging encounters into manageable ones. We'll also touch upon the animal companions, who offer unique traversal and combat advantages.
