Version differences

Unless otherwise stated, all tricks can be executed on either version. The mostly preferred version for speed running is the GCN version, as Long Jump Attack completely annihilates any advantage to playing the Wii version. Also note that there are at least two Wii revisions, the later one has a few bugs fixed and is not recommended for speedrunning as the Map glitch doesn't work there anymore.

The Wii version has been horizontally mirrored.
The camera can be easily adjusted with the C-Stick on the GCN version.
The GCN version allows 2 items to be equipped at one time (X, Y), whereas the Wii version allows 4 (D-pad directions except Up, and B). All item selections are also theoretically faster with manual aiming on the Wii version.
Quickspins – All spin attacks can be done by rotating the analog stick 360 degrees + B in the GCN version, with no delays in between. This allows certain bosses to be defeated more quickly, such as part 2 of the Stallord battle.
The Iron Boots glitch doesn’t work in the GCN version.
Backflipping off of Epona can only be done on the GCN version and not the Wii version (except while targetting an enemy). This also makes the horse dismount slide GCN only.
There is a glitch in the Cave of Ordeals specific to the Wii version. Use the Gale Boomerang to put out the left torch on any floor, and the door two floors down opens automatically, even if not all of the monsters are defeated. [1]
There is less lag overall on the Wii version.
There is a small step in the room with the second monkey in the Forest Temple that can be crashed into on the Wii version; this has been fixed in the GCN version.
The Cannon Room Glitch has been fixed in the GCN version.
Fishing underwater and the resulting hover glitch can only be done in the GCN version.
The Wii version does not lock onto the Gale Boomerang like the GCN version does. This makes Long Jump Attack anywhere impossible on the Wii version.
Each version has a different trailer.
In the Wii version, you cannot fall off ledges while aiming the Clawshot, Bow, or Slingshot.
Midna/Bottle/Epona dive only works on Wii.http://

Transportation

Five methods of transportation arranged from fastest to slowest:

Epona
Wolf Dashing
Rolling
Sidestep
Walk
Backwalk

Comparison

Rolling is about four seconds faster than Backslash. However, if you are already facing the correct
 
 way, Backslash starts off faster and three of them are faster than three rolls.

None of the actual “damage values” are actually known at this point, and it is speculated that some attacks deal more damage to certain enemies than others, which complicates matters quite a bit

General Tactics

http://

Skipping Cutscenes

To skip cutscenes, press the minus button twice on the Wii version or the start button twice on the GCN version. In general,

All boss introduction scenes CAN be skipped, but transition and death scenes CANNOT.
No warping scenes can be skipped except ones where you are warping an object. If you are warping an object, you can skip the cutscene where you warp away, but not the one when you arrive at your destination.

There are exceptions, however. When in doubt, just try skipping; you do not lose any time.http://

Rupee Text Skip

Sidehop over a Rupee that normally gives you text when you collect it to collect the Rupee without getting the text. Use it whenever possible, though if you'll be collecting a lot of Rupees that normally gives you text, it might end up being slower to align and perform a sidehop every time than just viewing the text. [2]http://

Damage Boosting

There are three known useful ways to damage boost using Bombs:

Jump off a cliff and drop the bomb by pulling out your sword or another item. You can then follow it with a jumpslash.
Jump without releasing the bomb to be boosted to the side.
Set the bomb on the ground and use a Jump Attack, Jump Strike, Back Slice, or other move that gets height to jump over the bomb at the right time.http://

Super Jump

Encase an enemy in Midna's Dark Energy Field and either move away from the enemy or let the enemy move away from you. You will get quite a bit of height/distance doing this.http://

Long Jump Attack

Perform a jump attack while locked onto something that is higher than you are. Depending on where the object is, you may get an extremely long jump attack that can be used to cross large gaps. On the GCN version, the Gale Boomerang can be used as the object, allowing it to be done anywhere. No such thing has been found on the Wii version so far.http://

How to execute

Take out and throw the Gale Boomerang via the X or Y button.
Draw your sword with B while the whirlwind flies.
As the whirlwind returns towards you, press A to jump.

Do not press the L button at any time.

You will usually get an LJA when the boomerang is over voids and ledges that are higher than the ledge you are on.http://

Overworld Tactics

http://

Days 1 through 3

Faron Early - pick up a large rock and carry it to the gate to Faron. Set it down and sidehop into it. If done right, you'll end up clipped inside the gate. Roll to the center and crash to fall out on the side with the bridge.
- Using Faron Early allows you to skip the Wooden Sword. Manipulate the Bokoblins to destroy the cage for you, then kill them using the Slingshot.
- Skip Ordon Days 1 & 2 - do Faron Early on day 1. Manipulate the Bokoblins to destroy the cage for you, then push them down to Trill's shop and have him kill them for you. The game can be completed with this skipping the Fishing Rod, using a Midna or Bottle Dive in the Wii and a Rupee Dive in the GCN to enter LBT early.
- Goat Herding strategy (Current WR: 17.24 sec.)
In Ordon Ranch, rolling to Epona is faster than calling her using the grass.http://

Faron Twilight/Faron Woods

Midna text skip in Hyrule sewers - In the tall tower, normally when you jump off the ledge at the end of the stairs, Midna talks to you. Instead, jump to the side so you land close enough to the stairs to make them crumble, but too far to trigger the Midna speech.
Skip talking to Midna before going to the rooftops to scare Hanch by standing on the rock and jumping at the house. Wolf Link grabs the ledge and pulls himself up. It only works after you've already triggered Hanch to start attacking you with the hawk. (needs video)
Skip cutscene where the second-to-last pair of bugs burrow into the ground. This also lets you skip having to dig them up. Use Midna to jump to the last platform before your destination, then jump off to the left. Then walk up the hill. This trick is only possible on the Wii version.
When following the monkey, push it with the Ordon Shield to speed up the fog navigation by a tiny bit.http://

Death Mountain

The geyser glitch allows one to get past the geysers without equipping the Iron Boots. A shield is required. Sidehop into the geyser with the shield facing the geyser. When you land, let go. You can now freely walk around the geyser (and out on the other side) without the Iron Boots on.http://

Lanayru Twilight up to Lakebed

The best route for Lanayru Province Tears of Light, written by YautjaElder, is:

the one that you follow across the wooden bridges.
the one on the way to the stone tower.
warp to Zora's Domain and get the one on the wall there, then head outside.
stand on top of the waterfall and perform a tricky jump to land on the ledge on on the west side of the area. Kill the bug then jump down into the water.
get the bugs flying around the lily pads in the middle of the area.
see above.
get the bug on the ledge behind the mother and child isles.
go downriver into the area with the howling stone and get the one bug there, then follow the stream to get into northern hyrule field.
make your way to castle town and grab the bug there, then warp to lake hylia.
get the bug behind the cannon house, then howl near the grass to summon the flying beast.
get all the bugs here and then crash into the wall. Tell Midna no when she asks if you want to try again.
see above.
see above.
see above.
you will appear right next to the second to last bug, kill it to make the last bug appear.
swim to the large bug in the middle of the lake and kill it.

King Bulblin – Bridge of Eldin duel in one cycle - simply be quick with firing arrows at him to defeat him in one cycle.
King Zora's Tomb Early - Use a bomb-boosted jump attack to get onto the ledge to the right in the graveyard (left on GCN), then walk up until you get out of bounds. It is possible to enter King Zora's tomb from here. The main use, however, is to stay out of bounds and enter the warp to Lake Hylia. This, combined with the glitch below, allows you to skip purchasing Water Bombs in a Wii version run. If you need Water Bombs in the actual dungeon, then make sure you have wasted all of your bombs on a previous occasion and open a chest to get Water Bombs.
Enter Lakebed without Water Bombs - Swim around at a seam in the wall above the rock to go through. Then simply drop into the entrance from behind the rock. Apparently the seam was fixed up a bit in the GCN version, so this only works on the Wii version. This, combined with the glitch above, allows you to skip purchasing Water Bombs in a Wii version run. If you need Water Bombs in the actual dungeon, then make sure you have wasted all of your bombs on a previous occasion and open a chest to get Water Bombs.http://

Midna's Injury, Master Sword

In Telma's bar, destroy some pots to the side, then jump off the ledge so you land on a piece of another ledge sticking out. This skips two tightropes. (needs video)
Optimal Master Sword puzzle solution (12 moves):
- Wii: Right, Down, Up, Up, Up, Left, Left, Down, Down, Down, Right, Up
- GCN: Left, Down, Up, Up, Up, Right, Right, Down, Down, Down, Left, Uphttp://

Snowpeak

It is possible to skip the reekfish scent with the map glitch.
It is not possible to substitute the Coral Earring for a different type of bait.
It is possible to skip the Snowpeak portal. Walk along the cliff and sidehop off at the right spot, and you will reappear behind Yeto. (needs video)
Snowboarding in 1’08”3' (has been obsoleted by new WR, but idea is the same)http://

Sacred Grove

Route (Wii version)
Route (GCN version)http://

City in the Sky Early

Skips the entire Temple of Time and Snowpeak Ruins after the Ball and Chain.
Clip into cannon room early, then warp the cannon to Lake Hylia and proceed as usual
The new dungeon route is Snowpeak Ruins (to Ball & Chain) – – – City in the Sky.
Apparently, the game only checks for the last mirror shard when determining entry to the Palace of Twilight. Proof
We can't skip Arbiter's Grounds because we need the Mirror Chamber warp point, and the spinner in City in the Sky.
We also cannot skip the Ball and Chain because it's needed for the Zant battle.
If we attempt to have Fyer fix the cannon without ever having taken the oasis flight, the game freezes.
Approximate time saved from the normal route is 1 hour, 4 minutes.http://

Cave of Ordeals Darknuts

On floor 49, if you're having problems defeating the Darknuts, this is a decent strategy for them.

Note: The video has four Darknuts, but the strategy is unaltered for three.

Dungeon Tactics

http://

Forest Temple

Length: 3 segments totaling 12 minutes

Items needed: Lantern, Gale Boomerang

Gale Boomerang Early: Go to the room with two Deku Likes and exit out the door that leads to the large canyon-like room. Walk off the ledge just as the bridge spins into you to clip inside the bridge. Then wait for it to spin around again and jump + jump attack to the next bridge. Repeat this on the second pair of bridges. (3rd and 4th monkeys must still be collected in the Wii version.)
- Complete video of effects
Get small key without defeating Deku Like
In the room with two Deku Likes, you can apparently reach either one with the bomb at the top of the main staircase.
In the room with two Deku Likes, you can skip the first one by aiming slightly to the side. Do this while holding a bomb and you can also blow up the boulder with the first Bombling instead of the second.
In the room with the red rupee chest and tile worms, use a tile worm to boost you up onto the ledge on the right. This trick, while possible on both versions, should only be done on the Wii version, as the monkeys can be skipped in the GCN version.
Small timesaver in the room with the monkey on a stump: use the Gale Boomerang to bring up a bombling from the bottom floor, then drop it down the other hole to skip having to jump down and climb back up the vines.
Skip all monkeys except first and second: Use Long Jump Attacks to jump onto the tree and from there to the ledge with the boss door. Because this trick uses Long Jump Attack, it is exclusive to the GCN version.
Small timesaver en route to boss key

GCN route:

seventh and eighth monkeys - get red rupee in the room with tile worms if you don't already have at least 20
Diababahttp://

Goron Mines

Items needed: Iron Boots, Hero's Bow

Ledge early
To skip the switch for the first flame jet, just roll into the flame jet and take damage, then walk through the flame jet while still temporarily invincible.
Shortcut to skip some of the first room (see the end of the video) - Do a Long Jump Attack to get to the end of the first room without having to go through the second lava jet a second time, climb the ladder, or deactivate and run past/skip the last lava jet. Because it uses Long Jump Attack, this trick is GCN exclusive.
Skip the third lava jet in the first room - Go to the third lava jet. There is a small spot where you can stand next to it without getting hit; jump there, then wait for one of the enemies to hit you. Now run through the lava jet.
Clipping glitch involving the movable wall. Saves five seconds.
In the second room you can just jump down to the platform where the small key chest is.
In the third room, you can sidehop onto the fencing on the ramp and walk along it a short ways to jump to the platform where you pull the big stone block.[3]
Iron Boots Glitch: Walk into a magnetic field that pulls you to a wall or ceiling. Equip the Iron Boots. When you get pulled to the wall or ceiling, go into the menu and switch out items so that the Iron Boots is not on the D-Pad or the B button. When you arrive on the ceiling or wall, you will still be able to walk around as if you had the Iron Boots on, but you'll be walking at normal speed instead of the slow Iron Boots speed. This glitch was removed in the GCN version, so it is exclusive to the Wii version.
In the room with a small key in an underwater chest, you can hit the blue crystal switch with your sword and avoid having to using the magnetic surfaces to get across.
In the room before Fangoro, it’s possible to get atop the edge of the spinning platform and use the second floor entryway to Gor Ebizo’s chamber. Theoretically this allows skipping the second key shard on the Wii version.
Skip a key shard - Use a long jump attack to skip most of the room before Fangoro. From there proceed normally. You will recieve the Big Key from the third Goron elder regardless of whether you have the second. Theoretically this should also be possible on the Wii version by using the above trick.
Trick with magnetic wall in room before Fangoro -
Bridge skip - in the large open room with water and Bulblin Archers, let the magnetic platform carry you to the bridge, then drop down and do a jump attack to land on top of the bridge. Then jump behind it to get to the next room without knocking down the bridge.
You can defeat Beamos when they aren't facing you by shooting the lump on the side with the eye.http://

Lakebed Temple

Length: 1 segment(s) totaling 12 minutes

Items needed: Zora Armor, Bow, Bombs, Clawshot

- Enter with two water bombs and no zora armor
In the water tower, it is possible to let the water out without filling it in. There are three methods.
- Method 1 - Walk up the ramps until you're behind the ledge with the switch. Turn so it's to the side, then sidehop onto it. After you fall off, do a jump attack to land on the ledge.
- Method 2 - Walk up the ramps until you're to the right of the ledge with the switch (left on GCN). Now climb onto the rail and sidehop to land on the ledge.
- Method 3 - Long Jump Attack onto the ledge with the switch. Because it uses Long Jump Attack, this method is GCN-exclusive.
- Method 4 - The easiest, walk up until you can face the lever, climb the railing, now step directly in front of the lever and take out a bomb, then only jump and relase the bomb with an item or the sword.
Very early Clawshot - In the room with the first small key, use two Long Jump Attacks to get onto one of the platforms hanging from the gears, and from there to the door. Because it uses Long Jump Attack, this trick is GCN-exclusive.
Early Clawshot - Play through the dungeon until you get to the room above the room with the first small key (there is a giant gear). Stand on the gear and jump off at the right spot to land on some ledges below to get to the Clawshot without activating the first water tower. (needs video)
Skip the boss key - Use the vine glitch to clip through the vines, then swim underneath the room and up the pillar in the center.
Skip the second water tower - When you get to the lower half of the gear room to the west (east on Wii), look up to the right (left on Wii). There is a clawshot target on the bottom of the gear; fire the Clawshot at it, then let go to land on the ledge below. Climb a couple vines using the Clawshot, then look down to see a platform with two pots on it. Jump off and land on that, then fire the Clawshot at the final Clawshot target, again on the bottom of the gear.
Skip several rooms leading to the boss key: Use a Long Jump Attack to jump over the rubble by the door leading to the boss key room. Because it uses Long Jump Attack, this trick is GCN-exclusive.
Boss Door Early - There are three methods of doing this. (all methods need videos)
- Method 1 - Jump onto the railing of the stairs, either from the entrance or the chandelier, and jump to the boss door.
- Method 2 - Go to the second floor, then jump at the boss door. Add in a jump attack and you can make it.
- Method 3 - Clawshot to the chandelier, then let yourself drop off to land on the boss key ledge.

Arbiter’s Grounds

Boss Key early: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxrnGYpSiLU

Go backwards to defeat the Death Sword and get the Spinner, then do a savewarp. [1242]

TSA takes about two minutes, with minimal mistakes, to reach the geared mechanism from the spinner's treasure chest.

At SC 21 (Torture chamber), it’s possible to sidehop over the spikes [549]

Death sword speed fight using the Ball & Chain

Snowpeak Ruins

New SPR no shieldbash route:

Go to Yeta and get Map
Go to block puzzle room and solve it
Go to courtyard and get key
Use SexyZora19's Sb to get to the second floor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzGEiz95XsU
Go to block puzzle room and push down the block
Get the pumpkin
Let Yeta open up the new door.
Glitch past freezard using SZ19's trick - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7hJqfeKzIY
Get the ball and chain (savewarp if freezard blocks the way)
Go to block puzzle room and climb up
Go south and open the locked door

Skip one freezard when going to the first floor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fqt2rKRtpVE
Get the cannonball from courtyard
Bring it up the freezard room using the throwing trick
Shoot it from the one cannon to another
Kill the freezard on the second floor of the courtyard
Go get the Key and beat up the boss

If it's possible to glitch by the freezard guarding the courtyard cannon on the second floor we can skip getting the pumpkin

SPR*no shieldbash route if glitch works:

Go to Yeta and get Map
Go to block puzzle room and solve it
Go to courtyard and get key
Use SexyZora19's Sb to get to the second floor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzGEiz95XsU
Go to block puzzle room and push down the block
Unlock door and go to room with 2 freezards
Glitch past the one in front of the door
Glitch past freezard using SZ19's trick - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7hJqfeKzIY
Get the ball and chain (savewarp if freezard blocks the way)
Go to block puzzle room and climb up
Kill the 2 freezards and push down the blocks
Skip one freezard when going to the first floor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fqt2rKRtpVE
Get the cannonball from courtyard
Bring it up the freezard room using the throwing trick
Shoot it from the one cannon to another
Kill the freezard on the second floor of the courtyard
Go get the Key and beat up the boss

If the freezard doesn't block your way on the way back from the ball and chain, you could use the SB to the second floor again because it's faster. If you do that you also don't have to push down the block when you first do the SB.

I don't think the shieldbash route is over 2 minutes faster, if there is no other SB that uses shieldbash we might have to skip it.

Optimal route:

Go to Yeta and get Map
Go to block puzzle room and solve it
Go to courtyard and get key
Jump over wall using HS-2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIHoimujE-w
Glitch past freezard using SZ19's trick - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7hJqfeKzIY

If the freezard doesn't block the way:

Use SexyZora19's Sb to get to the second floor - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzGEiz95XsU
Unlock the door in the icy room

If the freezard blocks the way:

Savewarp to entrance
Get to second floor using kazooie's trick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViplNkTfVjc

Go get the Key and beat up the boss

If the shield attack is needed, go to the howling stone in Lake Hylia before meeting Auru.http://

Temple of Time

Items needed: Lantern, Clawshot, Spinner, Hero’s Bow (recommended)

At SC 5 (Platform Pop-Up), only one of the two statues is needed to hold down the switches that lower the elevator. This trick is demonstrated in Fierce’s long video at around 20’45”.

Jiano’s tips: “When you first arrive at that part, there is a cut scene when you activate both of the switches. This makes it MUCH easier to do the trick. All I do is put the statue on one of the switches, then go stand on the other. I make sure to face the rising platform (also looking towards the door). After a second or two (right before the cut scene starts) just roll forward. Continue to hold forward and when the cut scene ends, you will grab the edge and pull yourself up.” [2192]

At SC 6 (Life and Death) and SC 10 (Spikes, Lasers, and Blades), OHKO the Armos statues using bomb arrows.

At SC 9 (Weights and Measures), you can sidehop across the balance to prevent having to toss one of the statues from one platform to the other. This is shown in Part 24 of TSA’s visual guide for the GCN version:

At SC 21 (Smash ‘Em Down), you can manipulate the statue so that it falls directly to the third floor.

City in the Sky

Tips from zex20913 [1125]: 1. The spinner doesn't drop blue platforms. I don't think it'll come in too handy, but somebody might find a use for it. 2. Stating the obvious (from now on, STO): On the right side of the "main" room, there are vines to clawshot to after you use the spinner. 3. Items used in the dungeon: Spinner, Iron Boots, Bow, Clawshot(s), boomerang. After the second spinner use, replace with the boomerang. You'll never need to hit - again. 4. *Previously mentioned* side hop with the iron boots, instead of hitting the switch as intended through the fan. 5. *Previously mentioned* dangle off the edge to get the armored Dinolfos to fall. Caution, they may still hit you. 6. Nice timesaver: In the big cylinder room, use the Ooccoo to make the jump to one platform, to the left. Dangle, fall, and jumpslash to make it to the miniboss platform in short time. 7. On the miniboss, the back slice seems to save a cycle. I'll play him a couple more times before confirming or denying this statement, but it currently adds impetus for at least 2 non-mandatory HSs. 8. STO: Hold Z and the lock will change automatically on the clawshottable pillars. 9. Arrows are very good against dangling plants. 10. With the peahats in the outdoor area, it saves time on the last peahat, to clawshot to the gate on the opposite wall from the door. Saves a couple of seconds. 11. STO: Clawshot the sector nearest the chests for best results in the boss room, to start the fan. 12. STO: You can clawshot to the second rotating blade on the path to the boss room. 13: Anticipate where the blades will be. A yellow cursor does not mean a hit, a red does not mean a miss. 14: You can get to Argorok's peahats in 2 tower clawshots. This is obviously better than 3.

To quickly defeat the twin Dynalfos, stand close to the edge and perform a spin attack to knock them both off.

At SC 8 (Wind Breaker), one can sidehop the falling blocks with Iron Boots equipped to avoid having to turn on the crystal switch that deactivates one of the fans. [640] This is demonstrated in Fierce’s short video at about 0’45”.

At SC 12 (A Long Way Down), it’s possible to jumpslash to the bottom ledge without an Oocca.

At SC 28 (Wind-Powered Panels), it’s possible to reach Argorok’s tower without turning on the fan, though the time saved is questionable. [454]:

Skip bridge destruction cutscene

http://

Palace of Twilight

Note: Trying to reach the palace’s main chamber without the Light Sword is futile, as there’s an invisible wall behind the black fog so that even if one uses a Sol to dispel it, it’s impossible to advance.

When moving a Sol, stand on the spot where the stairs are triggered to rise, and throw it into the slot.

Hyrule Castle

Items needed: Gale Boomerang, Hero’s Bow OR Lantern, Spinner, Double Clawshots

The shortest known path through the dungeon is as follows:

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8SFDFHQNyQ

An alternative strategy is to shoot 3-4 bomb arrows at their feet to strip off multiple pieces of their armor at once.

Boss 6: Twilit Arachnid—Armogohma

Part 1 (3 hits): Three cycles minimum.

Part 2: OHKO the “eyeball” (Gohma ) with a Bomb Arrow or Ball & Chain (the former is faster.) [766]

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeJBjkTAJ7M

Mid-Boss 7: Aeralfos (Single cycle)

Shoot arrow (so it puts up its shield immediately) + clawshot, then hack away.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRuTpAqqR4Y&NR

Boss 7: Twilit Dragon—Argorok

Part 1: 2 cycles minimum.

Part 2: (12 hits w/Master Sword) Three cycles minimum.

zex: To clawshot to the top section of the towers in 2 shots, start close to a tower, aim as high as you can, as close to the other tower as you can. You should be able to clawshot to the nearest part of the second tower, highest section. From there, it's the peahats. This is on the Wii version. [1412]

Boss 8: Usurper King—Zant (Par time: 5-5.5 minutes total)

Part 1: Diababa’s Arena (2 cycles minimum*)

Part 2: Diagoro’s Arena (2 cycles minimum*) – Don’t equip the Iron Boots.

Part 3: Morpheel’s Arena (2 cycles minimum)

Part 4: Ook’s Arena (2 cycles minimum*)

Part 5: Blizzeta’s Arena (2 cycles minimum)

Part 6: Outside Hyrule Castle

One cycle may be possible. I’ve gotten close several times, but was always one jump attack or two slices short.

Boss 9A: Ganon’s Puppet—Zelda (3 deflections – usually 1-2 min.; time varies depending on luck)

Stand as close as possible and charge up a spin attack, then let go at the appropriate time for a guaranteed hit. [265] May require some luck manipulation:

Peteyboo: “she seems to use the ball attack more often if you have an empty bottle out.” [715] I’m not sure about this one, as I tried it and it made no difference.

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLlGgvQfax8

Boss 9B: Dark Beast—Ganon (3 cycles minimum – Par time: <1’15”)

Part 1 (Human – 2 cycles): Arrow to head; jump attack x2

Part 2 (Wolf – 1 cycle): L/Z-target; Hold A + Throw; transform to human; jump attack x2

This strategy is best demonstrated in Part 29 of TSA’s GCN version visual guide:

http://www.archive.org/download/twilight_princess_gcn_guide_parts_26_-_29/segment_29.wmv

Boss 9C: Dark Lord—Ganondorf (While some guides count the horseback portion as a separate boss battle, the official NP guide groups them together in the manner below, presumably due to the fact that the standard boss title/name text does not appear on-screen.)

On Horseback (3 spins – Par time: 30-40 seconds): Lock on L/Z-targeting immediately, and stay as close to Ganondorf as possible. Don’t tilt the analog stick when Zelda fires her light arrows. When he’s stunned, charge up a spin attack with B and release it when right next to him. You can hold down B while boosting with A.

Final battle (3 knockdowns – Par time: <40 sec.):

Keep the L/Z-target on Ganondorf during the entire battle. Maintain a distance of about 7-8 steps in front of him. If you position yourself correctly, Ganondorf dashes at you and the word “Chance” appears. Mash A repeatedly until the button icon disappears. While keeping the L/Z-target on him, quickly perform four slices (B) and he stumbles. Repeat two more times, and then finish him with the ending blow. If all instructions are followed correctly, no luck manipulation is required.

Misc Tricks/Glitches

http://

Early Hyrule Field

[4] [5] - Backflip off Epona to clip inside the gate to Hyrule Field. Alternatively, on the Wii version you can also back Epona up to the gate and jump attack her to make it in. There is currently no known way to defeat the Twilit Messengers in Kakariko Gorge, and even if there was there would still be dead ends because 1) you would get stuck at the screen where Midna forces you to warp (you don't have any portals) and 2) you do not have senses and would be unable to hunt for bugs.http://

Skip Ilia taking Epona cutscene

[6] - this trick is only possible on the GCN version because of a backflip off Epona. However, using it results in being unable to complete the game.

To do this glitch you will need to use Epona and back flip off of Epona to the east corner of the gate in the ordon ranch on day 2. With Epona right next to you roll into the gate and with some luck you'll right through. When you see llia there will be no Epona, the cut sceen will skip, and you will be shown in jail as a wolf.

Enter the Faron twilight as a human

[7]: Use the Faron gate glitch on day 3 and hit the twilight wall on the left side (right side on Wii) with your sword.

There is no way to get out of the twilight after doing this. All the exits are blocked, you can't warp, and you can't collect bugs as human Link since they're invisible.http://

Zora’s Tomb early

Problem: Game freezes after entering the warp to the Twilight Realm. [786]

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gnyw91AIFrg

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtsnFx2Wgy4

Note: Instead of using bombs to get on the wall you can use the LJA if you just climb on the grave.http://

Great Bridge of Hylia glitch [147]

Allows one to get past the fire, but there’s nowhere to go as the gate leading to south Hyrule Field is closed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOZ-zPNZei8 http://

Lake Hylia early issues [1440]

Kazooie says that the Twilit Kargarok (whom you need to ride up Zora’s River) doesn’t take damage when Link is a human. Can be beaten by touching water.

Also, reaching Zora’s Domain early by bombing the rocks in (North Lanayru Province), triggers the warp portal, but nothing else.

The Fishing Hole is open, but Iza’s Rapid Ride doesn't work because the Twilit Kargarok map is loaded while in twilight.

Giant Bug is currently believed to be impossible to beat with the spin attack.http://

Get through boulders in Hyrule Field [74]

Useless since there’s an invisible wall behind the boulders, so even if Link passes through them, he cannot continue on to reach Lanayru Province early.

Back in Time Glitch [1635]

According to YautjaElder, he reset the game while in the Goron Mines, and the game restarted at the Bridge of Eldin while allowing him to control Link.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCLbX7liZYg

The Back in Time Glitch is done by resetting the game at the right frame sometime before Link falls in such a way that his position would be reset to some previous checkpoint. When done correctly, the game gives the player control of Link in the title screen map. The possibilities of this glitch branch out as follows..

Pressing start will cause the title image to appear, other buttons reportedly crash the game. **Pressing start again restores normal Menu selection.
If you fall into the void and press start before falling too far, the Menu selection appears and you will hear the sound of Link falling followed by the 'Death Whoosh'. Loading any other save other than the previously loaded save game will cause the game to crash. Also, if the trick was done on a save with Eldin Province still in twilight, the game will crash regardless of which game is loaded. Upon loading a game successfully, a fight with King Bublin will occur. The various sound effects, music, and lighting from the last area that you saved in will alter the normal settings of the fight. No other enemies appear. During the second phase, the segment in the Bridge of Eldin will not be there if the segment of bridge was ever teleported away. After the fight and cutscene, the game returns to normal, no adverse effects known.
Falling until you get game over will cause you to enter the Bublin 1 fight. The opening cutscene must be skipped, or else Link will be stranded on the other side of the bridge. The bublin 1 flight plays normally, but afterward Link is stranded in the twilight.
Instead of beating Bublin 1, if you save at this point (it is advised that you DO NOT SAVE on a file you wish to keep.) you will create a saved game called Link. This file starts off with the Ordon Sword and Hylian shield, and with certain triggers making it impossible to get certain items. Theoretically, it's possible to beat this save with the aid of the Ordon Sword and shield skip, and rupee dive on the wii to skip the fishing rod since neither can be obtained due to the fact that you already wield the Ordon Sword (but not actually have it) and are required by Midna to gain entrance to the Twilight.

Hover glitch involving the fishing rod

[8] http://

Early Master Sword

[9] comes to a dead end at the Goron Mines entrance. Gor Coron won't sumo, and the entrance remains blocked by an invisible wall.http://

Resolution 1: "Fixed EMS" or "Resume normal play" fix

This is a complex and lengthy way to get passed the Goron Mines dead-end. What you do is do EMS normally up until the point at which you can just go up and get the Master Sword, then Save warp and then death warp and return back to the normal play route. Then once you beat the Goron Elder at wrestling and are granted entrance to the Mines, you go back to the sacred groves and claim the Master Sword. Then just beat the mines, buy the bomb bag, fish out some water bombs, and you can put together the rest. - mzxrules on SDA forums

Originally, this was the only known fix for EMS so this one was called "Fixed EMS" while the EMS without returning to normal play route with no known way to escape the dead end was called "Original EMS". The following fixes are all for the "Original EMS".http://

Resolution 2: Map glitch

So you go out and get the Master Sword Early, beat the forest temple and eventually get the iron boots. Then you skip the Goron Mines completely, go straight to Laranyu Province with the Epona Gate Clip or Map Glitch. Beat that, then go to Zora's Domain. Now because you skipped the Goron Mines, you don't have the Bow, and Barnes never gives you a bomb bag. Also, because you can't get the arrows, you can't kill bublin 2 and get the Zora's Armor. Without the Zora's Armor, and some other stuff, you can't get the corral ring and catch a reekfish, which is where this glitch comes into play. The Map Glitch prevents certain triggers from happening, like triggers that load new areas and the trigger that sends you back when you walk through the blizzard. So now you can climb up the mountain. How does that help? Entering the Ice Mansion early lets you get Oocco again, which you use to get Oocco jr. Then you can steal Izza's Bomb bag, dump the bombs in the bag, catch some bomb fish in a secret grotto near the Bridge of Eldin, Warp back to Zora's Domain, bomb the Ice Chunk with the Goron stuck in it, get the second bomb bag, warp to Lake Hylia, use logitech's waterbomb air restore trick, get into Lakebed Temple, and save. This warps you onto land in Lakebed Temple, where you just beat morpheel using the air refill trick, skip the temple of time, beat arbiture's grounds, and palace of Twilight, and finish the game. - mzxrules on YouTube [10]http://

Resolution 3: Midna dive into Lakebed Temple

This dead end fix is Wii only and involves using bottle dive to go out of bounds and get into Lakebed Temple without Zora armor or water bombs. There are 2 ways so far to do this: [11] [12]

"I found a way to Midna dive into LBT on Wii. This is done with a jar the first time you enter Lake Hylia. This skips getting a bottle for low% ems speedrun. To map glitch up Snowpeak mountain, use Auru's memo." - LogitechSDAZ, video: [13]

After entering Lakebed, save the game. This will automatically put you past the water tunnel.

In the second room you just have to lure the helmasaur on the first platform over to the ledge with gale boomerang. The helmasaur will not fall off the ledge if you get it into the right position. Getting the helmasaur into the exact position needed to get onto the platform isn't exactly easy to do quickly, but should get easier with practice. Then target the helmasaur and long jump attack it. Afterwards, turn into a wolf and jump onto the next ledge. You'll barely make it if you positioned wolf Link the correct way.

Doing this skips the fishing rod, which also means skipping the bombfish grotto. As of now, fishing rod is still needed on the Gamecube version with early master sword.

Unfortunately, for single segment purposes this won't work because you'd drown in the 1st room of Lakebed.

If bottle dive works on newer versions of Twilight Princess, then the game can be completed with early master sword where map glitch doesn't work. You'll still need the fishing rod in newer versions.

- LogitechSDAZ on Youtube, edited a bit. Video: [14]http://

Skip Ordon Village Days 1 & 2 and the slingshot http://

Early Lanayru Province

To get in Lanayru early you can either gate clip,CD Stream, or Warp Cancel. It is possible to not hit a dead-end but it will depending on your conditions.http://

Midna/Bottle/Epona dive (Wii only)

Stand on a corner of a cliff, facing away from the abyss, while carrying something above your head (e.g. a crate), and then call either Midna or Epona or use the Bottle. As a result Link will fall down into the void. Depending on the map the game will either detect you've fallen down and put you back to the starting point the current "room" or if there's water you might be diving below the map out of bounds.

Can be used to get into Lakebed Temple, no Zora Armor required (see Early Master Sword, Resolution 3)

Examples: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhuo1kQEis8 http://

Swim with waterbombs

(The following ist mostly copy&paste from logitechSDAZ's video linked below)

Two ways to do this...

Put on iron boots underwater and be on solid ground.
Pull out a waterbomb and quickly press up on the direction pad before the waterbomb is completely pulled out.
Use any item in your inventory to replace iron boots. If iron boots is mapped to the "X" button, then put another item to the "X" button.
As you are exiting the item screen, press any direction on the analog stick. If you don't do this, then the waterbomb will immediately drop out of Link's hands and the glitch won't happen.
As you are swimming with the waterbomb, keep pressing the analog stick. This means if you want to to go from North to South, you will have to rotate the analog stick in a semi-circle to turn Link around so you don't drop the bomb.
The only way to swim upward with a waterbomb in Link's hands is to put on the green tunic.

The other way to do this glitch is to pull out a waterbomb the moment before you fall off a ledge while underwater. As you are pulling the waterbomb out, very quickly unequip iron boots. It is harder to get the timing right, but it is still pretty easy to do.

If you put on iron boots again while swimming with the bomb, the bomb will drop after a couple of seconds. If you run into a barrier to stop the swimming momentum, the bomb will drop. If you press "A", the bomb will drop.

Video: http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=HdPBcJWkJSA http://

Underwater air refill trick

(Again, partially copy&paste from logitechSDAZ's video linked above)

You can use the "swim with waterbombs" glitch to dive without Zora's Armour, i.e. just with Hero's Clothes. If you're close to drowning just do the mentioned glitch. After the glitch, when you are swimming with the waterbomb in your hands, press "A". Your air supply meter will be refilled. You can enter Lakebed Temple this way, and survive the 1st room underwater in Hero's Clothes, and you can even defeat Morpheel without Zora's Armor.http://

Defeat Morpheel without Zora's Armor

As shown by Paraxade this is possible, however quite difficult to perform because Link runs out of air quickly and if you mess it up you're way above ground when running out of air and won't have the chance to sink fast enough even with Iron Boots equipped (as you have to stand on the ground or a pillar to perform the air refill trick). Just watch the video below to see how difficult it really is.

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=hEg2JBWjFmQ

Alternatively, by pressing Z after clawshotting on top of Morpheel and cycling, Midna will stop Link from rising in the water as much, allowing you to sink down and refill your air.http://

CD streaming (not allowed for SDA)

By opening the GCN's disc cap or ejecting the disc in Wii's home menu the game can be more or less forcefully prevented from loading further pieces of the map when Link is about to leave the piece he's currently on. Whether or not this can damage hardware is controversial. At least it's forbidden for speed runs to be submitted to SDA as it's considered to be a "hardware modification".

As a result Link can get out of bounds and walk through the void. Strange things can happen there, including game crashes, and can cause some items to not be 'obtained' when obtained.http://

Map glitch / Warp cancel glitch

This is similar to CD streaming but it won't harm hardware and it is allowed on SDA. Just press left (or right) on the direction pad and Z on the same time. The map will appear, choose a location to warp to and then exit the map, after that the Midna prompt appears which you can either abort or use to transform.

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=J0JdBnDRIOo - original video where this glitch was first discovered

http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=nYBRIMUg6GE - lots of funny things to do with this glitch

[15] - Map Glitch on Wii

On the wii, the opening of the map must be delayed by some animation or action first, then the minda button is spammed until the map opens. For example, set a bottle filled with something to B, then press B and 1 at the same time, spam up on the D-pad. Also works with various items.

"Or, as an alternative, you can do the map glitch off of signs without Midna. This method is much easier to do, except it can't be used everywhere. What you do is you go up to a sign or a guard and press A and 1 at the same time. If done right the map will open, you choose a warp spot, then you read the sign." - mzxrules

Warning: this trick was fixed by Nintendo on newer Wii discs (not sure about GCN discs). Here are a few collected version numbers:

RVL-RZDE-0A-0 JPN - Glitch works
RVL P RZDE CAN 62524A - Glitch works
RVL P RZDE CAN 62524C - Glitch doesn't work
RVL-RZDE-(USA) & RVL-006 - Glitch doesn't work

Theories

Early Hyrule Castle

If we can find a way into Hyrule Castle early we can create a bigger sequence break. Below is a list of things we tried and it failed.

Squeeze through the doors where the guards are blocking. This failed due to an invisible barrier.
Map Glitched around the walls. This failed because of an invisible barrier.
Assumed we could break the yellow barrier by seeing Zelda in the twilight world. The game ignores minda's condition and acts like your meeting zelda for the first time.
Tried to get Epona in Hyrule Market. Epona does not load so the game freezes up.

Theories on how to get in Hyrule Castle early

Find a way to leap over the wall with the double doors.
Be able to walk underneath everything without falling, and being able to jump attack back up, or super jump.
Be able to walk around everything without falling.
Be able to Super Slide through walls (possible in AR or Epona slide)

Early Kakariko Village

We could save a lot of time in a speed run if we could get the to Kakariko Village early. This is what we tried so far.

Tried to LJA to the other side of the cliff. So far LJA is just too short no matter where you try it from.
Super Jump across. So far no luck on this one, may be possible from somewhere.

Theories on how we can do it

Super Jump across.
LJA from some really high spot.
Get into Hyrule Market early, and get across the cliff from the east side of town.

Theories on getting early iron boots

Get Eldin back to the light world early so you can train Epona early.
