1,000-Fold Arms[]

The 1,000-Fold Arms is a special move that appears in Paper Mario: The Origami King, that Mario can use with the help of Olivia. Mario can use the 1,000-Fold Arms whenever there is a Magic Circle. The 1,000-Fold Arms are used both in boss battles and in solving puzzles.

In Boss Battles[]

In every boss battle in Paper Mario: The Origami King, Magic Circles will appear. Part of the key to defeating the bosses is to use the 1000-fold arms to deal large amounts of damage quickly. When you activate a Magic Circle in a battle, you will enter Rush Time. You will have a set amount of seconds to do as much damage as possible. If you let go of the right and left trigger buttons, then the Rush Time will pause. It will only start again when you press both the right and left triggers. Sometimes the Magic Circles are taken off of the board. In order to get them back on you will need to open a chest.

In Puzzles[]

You can also use the 1000-Fold Arms outside of battle, but only when you are on a Magic Circle. The 1000-Fold Arms can be used to create a bridge across gaps. Each of the Legion of Stationary yields a Magic Circle upon defeat. Mario can then use the 1000-Fold Arms to break Olly's seal on the streamers.
