OoT / MQ - Question & Answer / Trick Help Thread

I've been trying to do the bottom of the well Walking While Talking glitch (I think that's what it's called) where you go through the tunnel and open the door before the screen moves so you don't need Zelda's Lullaby. Do you have to have the small key for it to work, or can you just open the door the regular way?

It works even if the door is open.

Oh, thank you, I was getting sick of resetting my poor N64 XD

Another Bottom of the Well Actor Overwrite Glitch question.

What's the trick to clipping the vines with the Skulltula?

Do I have to move the joystick up and down after hitting the A-Button to drop? Or should I not use the A-Button to drop? I am using a Deku Nut to freeze the Skulltula.

Does it matter that I don't have the Kokiri Sword?

A, DOWN, then UP to do the quick regrab. Don't be too high up or you will grab the ledge instead of the vines.

Cosmo,

Thanks.

how do you get isg off an enemy with navi? im trying to get isg to sidehop hover across the gap in the bridge room in the child portion of the spirit temple

Crouch stab, press Z to target an enemy and immediately press C up.  Its a bit harder than normal ISG.

ok i got it once. this is far too many buttons to push at once...

edit: im getting it consistently now, thanks

In the essential sequence breaks topic it lists the king zora skip as adult as a 1 star difficulty trick but doesn't have a video link. The only way I can think of doing it is hovering, I was wondering if there is an easier way that I haven't thought of to get past. (if anyone is wondering im trying to do max% adult)

Look on the bottle skip page in our OoT section.  There's a video of the very easy megasidehop method and how to line it up.

Ok thanks! I noticed that page but the trick looked hard to me so I assumed it wasn't the 1 star way. All the videos are young link, is the setup exactly the same for adult link or is there something I need to change?

Just do a jumpslash into the acute angle you clip through with the megasidehop as Young Link. It is extremely easy, after you clip just walk under King Zora and go into the oob water.

Thanks, I'll give that a try next time I get to play. Hopefully I can get it to work and make the whole thing easier on me.

im doing a max% Child run and before i get too far into it i need get a few answers.
if you get the gold scale from the fishing pond can you still get the heart piece?
are there any other ways to get bombchus than the Botw, spirit temple, gerudo traing ground, bombchu bowling?
can you  win the bombchus in bowling more than once?
any other advice would be appreciated.

You can still get the HP after gold scale as long as the fish you use for gold scale is 6-9 pounds.

You can also buy chus at the chu shop in the back alley (100(10 chus)-180(20 chus)R).

You can win the chus from bowling as much as you want.

ok thanks

In BoTW, I fell into the hole next to the crawlspace where you would overwrite actors. (If it matter, I successfully overwritten the actors THEN fell down the hole.)
I activated ISG.
Then, I grabbed one of those respawning bush things. But before I grabbed it, it was cut. The state of the cut bush was in Link's hands, and it regrew while in his hands.
I replicated this and when I shield drop it while Z-Targeting, it stays hovering in mid-air.
I backflipped into them while having ISG on, and they still cut but still hovered in mid-air, and regrew

Is this already known?

It is old, but not very well known.

yeah i did that by accident a few months ago. it's pretty obscure.

Yay! I just found one but kind of useful for only 1 place I know. Gerudo Bridge Adult (not repaired) New way.

So go to the ledge of one side of the bridge and then look straight at the other side. Do a backflip and pull out a Chus and blow it up while in air (do it before you hit the ground like a few frames before u hit it) then go towards the explosion when you idmeately hit it, press start and equip the hover boots and go towards the otherside, it's a little boost.
Follow all these and it will work :D

Or you could just put down a bomb and equip the hover boots as it hits you, propelling you across.

DoT skip is pooping on my soul.
I can Angle Sidehop consistently
But I still can't do it, it looks like he clips through it slightly then gets pushed back out.
I have tried every angle in the entire fucking game.
I know that my angle is wrong, but have you got any tips as to how I can get it correctly?
Or is it just completely trial and error.  ???

Are you sure you're using the angle shown on the DoT skip page?  If you are then you might just be doing the backwards sidehop slightly wrong.

Yes, I'm pretty sure. It's kind of hard to tell on GCN version cause of the colouring of the b button, but I'm still sure it's correct. I don't see how I could be doing the sidehops wrong, I guess I'll keep practicing in an open area, but they seem perfectly fine to me. >_>

Edit: NVM, I did it!
I just followed Acryte's video where you go a little to the right before doing the sidehop and now I can clip easily.  ;D ;D

i found something that is mostly useless.
if you side hop and shield drop a bombchu you can do a nayru's love megaflip off of it.

We do that but with a backflip then nl megaflip off it.

thats where i got the idea from. the way that you get pushed back from the explosion if you dont do a backflip looks the same

Anybody know the fame data for a z-slide?
I don't know when to roll or when to let go of your shield, or even when to start holding up.
Can anybody help me?

Broken Bridge Skip

I'm doing a low% run, I've completed the Shadow Temple and now trying to get to the Spirit Temple (as an adult).

I've tried the ISG Hookshot but I'm having trouble. I get stuck on the post a lot which means the hookshot seizes up when I try to use it. I see in videos that Link walks forward before firing. Do I have to walk forward very slowly or can I go at full speed then pull out the Hookshot?

Alternatively, is it possible to megajump or hoverboost across?

Thanks!
