Weapon Skills (Hyrule Warriors)

Weapon Skills in Hyrule Warriors are attributes attached to weapons collected in battle. They serve to enhance the player's combat abilities, amplify elemental effects, or raise the quantity of item drops. Skills can be transferred from one weapon to another in the Smithy, though empty slots and a fee are required to do so. Many skills are sealed and only unlocked by defeating a certain amount of enemies throughout the weapon's usage; these skills cannot be transferred to another weapon until they are unlocked.

 * Note: Heart Power's ability is stacked. Attack increase for every 5 hearts that character has. At 30 Hearts it grants more extra attack strength than skills like Defenseless or Strong Attack+. It applies to all player attacks, making it the ideal skill to have and giving players another reason to collect as many hearts a character can gather.

These skills are only unlocked by collecting all non-DLC weapons for every character and accumulating 25,000 KOs with the Master Sword.
