Tell them one of the ways to get the Triforce in OoT. (First, use the hover boots to jump and run round the edge of Ganon's Castle to get to the back of it. From here, you can throw a bomb into the direct centre of the lava lake below the castle, which cause a portal to the Sky Temple to appear...)

Tell them that you can break the ice in the Zora's Domain as an adult in OoT. (Hover boots off the waterfall, switch to iron boots, and use megaton hammer in midair)

Or tell them that you can access the "blue fairy" at the bottom of the lake in OoT only as a child, before it freezes. lol

AoL is, indeed, awesome.

Actually, I feel like playing it again now. ;d

Anyway...


Show them any thread in Zelda Storyline.

That is definitely a good one. Hmmm. Here's another one: tell them AOL is the easiest game inthe series. Biggest lie ever.

Show them any thread in Zelda Storyline.

In particualar, never show them the kooky theories thread. And don't show them ZU, ZI, or IGN. That is unless you want them to lose their sanity.

Mention the free heartpeice they get for killing all of the chickens.

I remember the first time I tried to kill the cuccos in OoT and fell down the well and to my doom. :( I also remember trying to look up Link's tunic or getting into bad situations when making him flip over and trying to have his hat come off. Also when I thought that when the sword I bought from the Gorons broke, that meant that I couldn't finish the game.

Make sure they never go to Lon Lon Ranch as a kid. Otherwise, they won't be able to get their horse.

LOL! Did they follow you down the well? Damn, now I wanna go play it again and see if they do. XDDD

It so is. I'd only pull that with someone I REALLY didn't like. XD

Try getting the chicken you find in Kakariko as an adult down the well and trigger an attack. You can't climb the ladder to excape before they knock you down again... And there's no bottom of the well dungeon. So, you're dead. (Unless you warp out).

It is. Lets see. How about...tell them you could use the bow in the final fight in TWW or that a regular arrow can stun Ganondorf in OOT. Or tell them not to get the fierce deity's mask in MM. I'm still wondering why I didn't get it the first time I played the game.

Point out that the bug net can reflect Agahnim's attacks in ALttP and that bottles can deflect Ganon's attacks in OoT, then tell them the Deku Leaf can deflect Phantom Ganon's attacks in TWW.

Except two of those actually work (so I hear).

I think Showsni was saying you could use those two examples as a set up to trick someone into trying the fallacious Deku Leaf tactic.

Hahaha, this one. I made this mistake once and only once.

Tell them Sheik is Zelda if they haven't played or beaten OoT.

For those new to the story line business/Zelda series, tell them Ganondorf is Link's father and the series is really a rip-off of the original Star Wars trilogy.

Tell them that the invisible rats in TP are actually a glitch and that the game is messed up.
Tell them to save in the cannon room.
Tell them that Zelda ripped off Legend.
Tell them that the IGN movie trailer was real.

I did something like this recently. A guy was streaming his "Hobblin' Hobo" (three hearts, no shield, iron boots, wooden sword) run of TP on Livestream and was at the third phase of the Zant battle. He either hadn't played the game or had forgotten what to do, so he asked me how he was supposed to get to Zant.

I told him to swim up the nose of the gigantic Zant helmet to get inside.

Turns out that he was so busy trying to swim up the nose, he drowned because he forgot to momentarily switch to the Zora Armor to refill his air meter.

I like those. As for the last one, do the same thing with that fake Zelda Wii trailer. I don't need to explain that to anyone, right?
