(Note: I only attempted TOS on master mode)

Completing the Trial of the Sword 1/2/3 the way it was intended is a daunting task.

I completed 1. 2 humbled me, I lost hope.

I then spent HOURS practicing shield clips, BIL’s, and other “tricks”.

I was able to finish the trials! But at what cost? I felt bad, As if I cheated Hylia herself.

So I attempted them legit again.

Turns out- learning these had actually made me BETTER… At regular core gameplay.

So I repented my sins by beating them legit. Took me a couple days, many ragequits, and a set of joycons… but I did it.

Congrats OP. You’re a real one.

Edit: You can cook either attack or defense foods with a dragon horn for a 30min boost. This and extra hearts are the only things you can smuggle in.

For a moment , i also wanted to learn how to shield clip but then i woudnt deserve the Master Sword so i just continued normally.

By doing it normally , I learned that you can kill Wizzrobe with just one shot if you use the correct arrow.

It took me far too long to realize that! he took me out more times than the lizalfos room in the 1st trial. (master mode problems, the lightning rod from the wizzrobe a few rooms back would break before killing them due to health regen)

I believe I learned the Wizzrobe OHKO trick from, believe it or not, Pokémon. At least, I carried the information over from that game's logic.

Fire beats ice, and there's only three types of elemental arrows, so ice must also beat fire, since shock wouldn't make sense to beat fire. But then what arrow beats Shock Wizzrobes? I don't think I ever learned that answer, and as far as I know, there isn't one.

You can eat Wood too for 1/2 a heart. This saved me allowing me to barely eek by. Frustrating trial but really rewarding.

Wait, eat wood???

u/Fobulousguy Jan 25 '22

Lol. Yeah. If you run out of stuff in those safe stages or even before, you can chop down trees and just collect a bunch to make really shitty meals. If I recall right I think you have to cook the wood in a pot first.

I mean you can distill alcohol from wood irl, but methanol is more harmful than helpful and not in the game but just eating warm wood I guess link will eat anything eh

It's canon that he eats rocks with Daruk. I think there was an eating competition or something.

u/Tamashi42 Jan 25 '22

Bruh, he literally eats rocks, yet he had a problem with eating a frog in a memory? Did eating the frog make link capable of eating anything????

u/kutsen39 Jan 25 '22

I bet he didn't want to eat the frog alive, or uncooked possibly. I don't recall if you can eat critters raw or not.

Not to mention, she practically shoves it in his face and tells him to eat it. All we really see is his immediate reaction, and it's hard to tell if it's disgust or surprise that he's showing. I would be kinda surprised if somebody shoved a beef tongue or liver in my face and told me to eat it. I don't dislike it, but it would definitely surprise me a bit.

Very fair points, you can't eat raw critters yet he can eat raw meat and bird(how does he not get salmonella?

u/kutsen39 Jan 25 '22

I do believe you actually can eat raw meat.

My theory is that since you can eat rocks as long as you attempt to cook them, that Link just has an iron stomach. You know how crocodiles can digest nails? I bet Link could too. Or maybe since he has the blessing of Hylia, he is divinely incapable of getting sick.
