EDIT: Would it be possible to skip Hover Boots as well, by using lots of explosive hovers for Ganon's Castle early?
How do we do an explosive hover after we polymorph our sword into light arrows?

I think he meant just do things like bomb(chu) hover across instead of getting the boots.

Now, I think about it getting the bow as a child takes far too long, so we would be better off getting the bow as an adult. In terms of entering the Shadow temple as a child you'll need to climb on the fence near Dampe's roof and jump onto from there and you can indeed side hop over the loading point for Din's fire as a child. Route Kokiri Gerudo (get bombchus and save/quit) Dondongo's (get bomb bag, beat KD) Enter Kakariko (get bottle) Enter Graveyard (hover from Dampe's roof and enter Shadow Temple Shadow Temple (get hover boots and use death warp to entrance) Hyrule Castle (Meet Zelda) Zora's river Zora's Domain (Skip King Zora using hover(by TP reference that name is proven to be correct)) Jabu Save/Quit Kokiri Lake Hylia (steal rod) Hyrule (bottle adventure) Temple of Time (become adult with light arrows on B) Hyrule Kakariko Graveyard (get hookshot, don't use smashwarp) Kakariko Death Mountain Great Fairy (get magic) Goron City Lost Woods Sacred Meadow Forest Temple (get bow) Save/Quit Temple of Time Ganon Early Win the game EDIT: Important note about having light arrows on B: Since you have no sword you cannot use the bomb hovering technique. Its also not possible to enter Shadow Temple as an Adult by any means since the traditional technique is to use a jumpslash before the bomb explodes.

Well, in this case, why not just do Shadow as an adult? Otherwise, that's a lot to redo...

I'm probably forgetting something important, but what was the lullaby needed for except entering zora's domain the usual way? I'm currently thinking about - be a true hero and ditch the damsel (i.e. no castle visit) - fishing pond (golden scale + steal rod) - dive into zd and finish jabu (somehow without the sword) - bottle adventure but of course I'm missing something. What is it?

We need to set sail on that shadow ship.

Because of the blocks in Forest en route to the bow, we either need to get Silver Gauntlets or go there as a child. Swordless Link, have you tried completing Bottle Adventure with your glitch to verify that there are no oversights or unexpected problems?

Well, no, I didn't even know it would've been useful until AKA pointed it out earlier today...I can give it a shot on Thursday night, probably.

This game sounds like it's becoming as broken as all it's precursors. I can't wait for a completed run, even if it can be ultimately improved again.

Just when you think the game's been utterly broken... So, when should we expect to have the Door of Time skip figured out? ;) Actually, would that even be helpful at this point?

Duh, it would destroy the child portion.

Well, we'd still need to complete the Deku Tree in order to get out of the forest. We'd still need to get bombs from Dodongo's and the hover boots from Shadow for Ganon's Castle early. We'd still need to collect the Silver Gauntlets or get the bow as a child -- and again I ask: which is faster? However, we'd be able to skip the last two spiritual stones. So a Temple of Time sequence break would probably cut the time by half, but it'll never be as simple as Kokiri Forest -> Temple of Time -> Ganon's Castle. Also, the chances of this SB even being possible are incredibly slim, considering how many people have tried...and failed. For one, there's an invisible force that pushes you backward when you try to jumpslash through the crack, and you also can't use any C items (save for the OoT) while inside the temple.

My understanding of Bottle Adventure is that all of these steps must happen: 1. Get a bottle on B as an adult 2. Become a child and equip an item to C-Right 3. Become an adult and the new item on B corresponds to the value of Mem[BaseAddress + Value(Item on C-right)] So, even if we can now steal the rod as a child, I'm not sure we can skip traveling back and forth in time at least once. When Link first becomes an adult, there is no bottle on B, and hence, I'm fairly sure the new item on B won't be Light Arrows -- it may as well just be the sword. If this is true, then Swordless Link's trick may not be usable...

Damn this is overdue. Very nice glitch... Hahaha, funny thing is that someone said you could do it off the rocks about a year and a half ago but noone believed it. Me and fierce tried it but we couldn't pull it off... I spent like 4 hours trying to do it too.

Nice trick Swordless. I will be starting my run back up here in a week. I have been practicing my Guitar Hero II for a big tournament coming up on March 31st.

http://download.yousendit.com/553D536142DB53D3 That's a savestate with the rod stolen as a kid, with the three spritual stones collected, and the door of time opened, although not lifted the Master Sword at all, in case anyway wants to experiment.

Just to clarify, we're trying to find a way to get Light Arrows on B with only one trip through time. Currently, I'm not sure it's possible. This is how it's done with three trips through time: 1. Deplete Deku Stick Supply to 0 2. Get fish in bottle 3. Become adult 4. Steal the rod 5. Go back towards ToT 6. In hyrule field (Not in lake hylia) Pause and unpause (puts deku stick on B [DON'T PRESS B]) 7. Empty bottled fish and catch it again 8. Do backflip and then press bottle button and then B before you hit the ground. (puts bottle on B) 9. Go to ToT 10. Put fish on c-right and make sure deku nuts aren't equipped (not sure but to be safe). 11. Become child 12. Become adult (light arrows are now on B) Notice that the bottle is on B as an adult. If we put the bottle on B as a child, it becomes a sword when Link is an adult.

Why doesnt someone just try: 1. Deplete Deku Stick Supply to 0 2. Get fish in bottle 3. Steal the rod 4. Go back towards ToT 5. In hyrule field (Not in lake hylia) Pause and unpause (puts deku stick on B [DON'T PRESS B]) 6. Empty bottled fish and catch it again 7.

Put fish on c-right and make sure deku nuts aren't equipped (not sure but to be safe). 10. Become adult (light arrows are now on B) And see if it works? Idk, seems logical to me.

I've tried that, and it doesn't work. You get your good old sword back on B after pulling the MS. Here's my setup: My understanding of Bottle Adventure, as explained on JayTheHam, is that the bottle on B must happen as an adult, making three trips through time the bare minimum. I could be wrong, of course. I contacted Kazooie (credited as M-M on JayTheHam) about this 3-4 days ago and have received no response. I wonder what he's been up to these days...

I have an alternate theory; I think that the first time you become an adult, it automatically adds the Master Sword to your equipment and equips it. IIRC, it does something similar to your c-button slots the first time you pull the Master Sword.

Has anyone checked if you can do the bottle stuff somewhere besides HF, like ToT or market?
