'''Orbs''' are special items that appeared in ''[[Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!]]''. Along with [[talismans]], they are energy sources used by residents of [[Avalar]] to power their portals. You receive Orbs from doing random sidequests for the people who live in that world, or finding them hidden away somewhere.


==Spyro the Dragon==
Although talismans are the first thing [[Spyro]] was told to collect, it turned out that orbs were even more important to the story. The [[Professor]] can use the Orbs to help Spyro defeat [[Ripto]]. Not only did they break the seal on the castle door (along with other locks across Avalar), they gave Spyro powerful abilities for a limited period of time. Spyro used this to his advantage when facing Ripto. You will need orbs to unlock Ocean Speedway in Summer Forest and Metro Speedway in Autumn Plains, a door in the Autumn Plains Castle, and [[Ripto's Arena]] in [[Winter Tundra]].
In ''Spyro the Dragon'', orbs are items that are collected after you defeated an enemy you vanquished before. After an enemy is killed once ([[thieves]] or bosses too), the enemy will drop a silver orb (sometimes a silver dragon, which give you an extra life; or butterfly if Sparx's health is not gold) in subsequent kills. Collecting twenty of those silver orbs results in earning an extra life. The silver dragons that give you an extra life can also be found inside purple clamshell chests.


==Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!==
Orbs are energy sources used by Avalarians to power their portals, along with [[talismans]]. You receive Orbs from doing random jobs for the people who live in that world, or finding them hidden away somewhere. Although talismans are the first thing [[Spyro the Dragon (character)|Spyro]] was told to collect, it turned out that orbs are even more important to the story. The [[Professor]] can use the Orbs to seal off [[Ripto]]. Not only did they break the seal on the castle door (along with other locks across Avalar), they gave Spyro powerful abilities for a limited period of time. Spyro used this to his advantage when facing Ripto. You need a certain amount of Orbs to reach later levels.
With 64 orbs in all, they are the least abundant of the original collectibles, along with, again, talismans.

Orb
First appearance Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!
Latest appearance Spyro Reignited Trilogy
Effect Unlocks the doors leading to the Bosses (Ripto's Rage!)
Gives Spyro powerful abilities

Orbs are special items that appeared in Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!. Along with talismans, they are energy sources used by residents of Avalar to power their portals. You receive Orbs from doing random sidequests for the people who live in that world, or finding them hidden away somewhere.

Although talismans are the first thing Spyro was told to collect, it turned out that orbs were even more important to the story. The Professor can use the Orbs to help Spyro defeat Ripto. Not only did they break the seal on the castle door (along with other locks across Avalar), they gave Spyro powerful abilities for a limited period of time. Spyro used this to his advantage when facing Ripto. You will need orbs to unlock Ocean Speedway in Summer Forest and Metro Speedway in Autumn Plains, a door in the Autumn Plains Castle, and Ripto's Arena in Winter Tundra.
