Ravio's Shop

Discover all the items available at Ravio's Shop in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. Learn what to rent and why to help you progress through Hyrule.

Alright, so you've made your way back to Link's House, and guess what? Ravio's shop is now open for business! This is where you'll be able to rent all sorts of handy gear for your adventures. Think of it like this: you rent an item, you can use it as much as you want. But, if you happen to get a Game Over, Ravio's buddy Sheerow will swoop in and take all those rented items back. So, try not to kick the bucket!

Here's a rundown of what you can snag from Ravio:

For your next steps, you'll definitely want to rent the Hammer and the Tornado Rod. These are pretty essential for getting into and clearing out the next couple of dungeons. If you've been hoarding rupees and feel like a total pro, go ahead and rent everything! Otherwise, besides the Hammer and Tornado Rod, I'd suggest grabbing the Bombs and maybe the Hookshot. Honestly, the Boomerang isn't super critical, and while the Fire Rod and Ice Rod are cool, they don't open up as many new paths as other items.

Before you head off on that trek up Death Mountain – which, fair warning, is pretty dangerous – now's the perfect time to secure your gear by renting it from Ravio with your hard-earned rupees. Once you've got the Hammer, you can actually get into the Tower of Hera by just hammering the stumps that are blocking the entrance. And if you've got the Tornado Rod, you can use it to clear out those floor tiles right in front of the tower.
