Zodiac Weapons: Difference between revisions

'''Zodiac Weapons''' (also called '''Zodiac Items''' and '''Zodiac Powers''' in the case of the three power items) are special weapons found in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. They are often found in even-numbered Chapters (with the exceptions of [[Scorched Feathers|Chapter 22]], which has no item, and [[Lord of the Underworld|Chapter 23]], which does) in out of the way places. These weapons are based on the 12 constellations of the Zodiac. Pisces Heal, Libra Sponge and Aries Armor are [[powers]] rather than weapons. These weapons cannot be found or fused until their respective Zodiac Chambers are discovered.  Afterward, they randomly drop like other weapons and powers.

The [[Sagittarius Bow]] can be found near the beginning of [[Magnus and the Dark Lord|Chapter 2]] in Dark Lord Gaol's Castle, almost directly before [[Magnus]] is encountered.  In the hallway leading to the central garden, there is a tapestry covering up a gap in the wall.  Pass through the gap to enter the Zodiac Chamber.

The [[Taurus Arm]] can be found in the middle of [[The Reaper's Line of Sight|Chapter 4]] in the room with the two swinging blades. Fall into the pit holding the two Zuree's and the inactive Clubberskull and face the direction you entered the room from (opposite the [[Clubberskull]]). The pit holding the Zodiac chamber glows with a shining holy light to differentiate between the other pits possessing the spike traps.Pass through the door behind you to enter the Zodiac Chamber.

The [[Gemini Orbitars]] can be found in [[Dark Pit (Chapter)|Chapter 6]]. After [[Dark Pit]] is fought inside the underground area in the ruined temple, a corridor leading to the Zodiac Chamber will open up in the uppper-right corner of the room. You cannot enter the area if Dark Pit is not fought in this location

The [[Cancer Claws]] are found in [[The Space-Pirate Ship|Chapter 8]].  In the constellation room, jump up to the first platform and walk counterclockwise all the way to the opposite end.  Fall back down behind a group of stars and walk through the door to find the portal.

The [[Leo cannon]] can be found in [[The Wish Seed|Chapter 10]]. When entering the room with the first [[Guttler]], the path to the Zodiac Chamber is visible near the left wall.

The [[Virgo Palm]] is found in [[Wrath of the Reset Bomb|Chapter 12]].  Near the end of the path leading to the core of the [[Reset Bomb]] factory, head right to find a hidden elevator after fighting the Boom Stomper.  The portal is at the bottom.

The [[Scorpio Staff]] can be found in [[The Aurum Hive|Chapter 16]]. After you get the [[Aether Ring]], advance through the level until you see a hole. Go to the end of screen opposite the green arrow, and fall.  You should land near the portal.  Contrary to popular belief, this does not require the Aether Ring to access, though it makes doing so far easier.

== Aries Armor ==

This Armor ability can be found near the hot springs near the end of the land battle in [[The Ring of Chaos|Chapter 18]]. Take a left at the hot springs and go through a door to reach it.  It significantly reduces damage taken, as well as preventing knockback and [[Status Ailments|status effects]] ([[Status Ailments#Poison|poison]], [[Status Ailments#Confusion|confusion]], etc.)

The [[Capricorn Club]] can be found in the middle of [[Palutena's Temple|Chapter 20]]. Inside of Palutena's Temple, there will be a gate requiring a key.  Opposite this gate is hallway with cells.  Go to the end cell on your left side, which contains a [[Skuttler Mage]]. Press the button lying on the ground to open the door, defeat the Skuttler Mage, and walk towards the back of the cell. The wall turns out to be an illusion that which conceals a small path leading to the Zodiac Chamber.

The [[Aquarius Blade]] can be found in the middle of [[Lord of the Underworld|Chapter 23]], in the chamber with the various grind rails. After reaching the end of the first grind rail (remembering to switch grind rails mid-way), jump back on and ride it in the opposite direction (without switching grind rails mid-way) to reach the Zodiac Chamber.

This Healing power can be found in the very beginning of the first trial in [[The Three Trials|Chapter 24]]. Once you get off the first elevator, go down the stairs rather
