There was a bug in link's retirement. I have fixed it and it can be found here until the qdb is updated:

Glad for the update. I played the beginning of it and was unable to get the key to open the room to the right so I am unable to go any further in your quest.
Thanks,
ms_zelda_lady


P.S. I've given up on your quest. I've gotten as far as the beach but have died several times trying to get past the traps and go up the stairs. It was fun what I played but diying so many times and having to start all over on the beach made it no fun for me.

This quest has problems. How do you get the key in the water in lvl 1? And you can't exit lvl. 1. More bug work would make it good--I liked what I could play...

ms_zelda_lady
08-09-2005, 12:18 AM
You either have to walk around and a tile triggers the water to leave or use the boomerang and hit a certain tile or you have to use the whistle and the water goes away. I was able to finish the first level and actually was about to give up but went back and finally finished the beach area and have done perpetual forest but I'm now stuck trying to find the hookshot. I got the clue about needing the hookshot but I haven't found it. Also I see what I believe is the next dungeon but I don't have the ladder so I can't go there. Tried burning the trees hoping to trigger the staircase to go down but that won't work either.
Please can you tell me what I have to do next?

Thanks in advance,
ms_zelda_lady

Try shooting the ladder with an arrow.

Thanks for letting me know about lv1

ms_zelda_lady
08-09-2005, 11:48 AM
I don't have the bow and arrow. Must have missed them somewhere. So where can I find them?

Thanks,
ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-09-2005, 12:37 PM
Did you go through level 2?

Yoshi348
08-09-2005, 01:02 PM
Um, you need to check "Level 3 Pallete fix". Or uncheck it. I dunno which, but it should be the opposite of what you have it so Link's hat doesn't turn skin color.

ms_zelda_lady
08-09-2005, 01:14 PM
Nope I never found level 2 rocksfan13. Where is it?

Thanks,
ms_zelda_lady

fajz
08-09-2005, 01:30 PM
I think I see Lvl 2 on the beach but none of the docks take me too it. Am I missing a dock somewhere? I've seen and been on 4 docks. Where is there another that will take me to what I think is Lvl 2?

ms_zelda_lady
08-09-2005, 02:09 PM
You're probably right about the Level 2. I never got to that dock so its probably level 2.
Hey rockfan13 how do we get there?

Thanks,
ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-09-2005, 02:29 PM
Did you try bombing any of the cracks?

fajz
08-09-2005, 02:44 PM
ms_zelda_lady, one screen west of the shop with the mirror shield bomb one of those rock thingy in the ground and fall in.

ms_zelda_lady
08-09-2005, 04:19 PM
Thanks Fajz, I've found level 2 and got the bow but I haven't found an arrow. I found someone who asked me if I've bought arrows yet but I never came across a shop that sells it.
So if anyone can tell me where the shop that sells the arrows is, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
ms_zelda_lady

sasja

ms zelda lady did you find the arrow? I'v got the same problem cannot find a shop that sells an arrow. I bombed everything and fired every tree.

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 10:16 AM
There might be something you assumed on the beach was there but really isn't. Try that shop.

ms_zelda_lady
08-10-2005, 10:36 AM
Sasja I"m sending you a pm. Thanks rocksfan13 for the hint. I think I just figured it out.

ms_zelda_lady

your welcome

ms_zelda_lady
08-10-2005, 11:09 AM
:banghead: Boy am I stupid to not have figured out where the arrows are! Nice going rocksfan13! Excellent quest. Really have to think when I'm playing this quest.
Anyone who's reading this thread and hasn't played this quest yet should really get their hands on this quest right away. You won't regret it, I promise.

ms_zelda_lady

08-10-2005, 11:29 AM
I told you that you needed to think about some things. I tried to warn you! Thanks by the way.

fajz
08-10-2005, 01:28 PM
Rocksfan13, I have a question for you. In Level 4 on the first floor How do you get to the rooms in the south west corner? I have the Hammer and the Flippers out of this Level, but can't get to these 3 rooms to which I suspect has the Boss Key and possibly something else.

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 01:50 PM
in the room where you got the compass there is a secret path.

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 02:15 PM
Let me know if you found it.

fajz
08-10-2005, 02:32 PM
Thanks rockfan got it. In rooms like this one that got me too the Boss Key in level 4 you have to stand at a certain spot to blow the whistle for the stairs to appear. Is there a way to know where you have to stand? One more thing in Level 5 in the northwest corner of floor 2is there something in this room or some other way out besides where you came in?

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 02:45 PM
Do you have the lens?

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 03:10 PM
You might want to find it if you don't.

fajz
08-10-2005, 03:46 PM
No I don't have the Lens yet. One little hint Is it in a dungeon or somewhere in the Overworld. A little hint getting me close would be appreciated. Thanks for all the help. This really is a great quest.

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 03:59 PM
Dive around the lake just south of the entrance to the mountain lakes

(Just south of the heart piece surrounded by pegs.)

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 04:00 PM
Let me know how you fare.

fajz
08-10-2005, 04:57 PM
Found it Rockfan13. Thanks again. the only thing that thru me was It in the lake south of the EXIT going into Mountain Lake. Now back to L5 to find the hiden warps.

ms_zelda_lady
08-10-2005, 05:02 PM
I'm stuck again rocksfan13 in the 3rd dungeon. I've gotten the hookshot, the 2nd boomerang and even the 1st bracelet but can't figure out how to get to the blue ring or how to get to the boss key. Even checked out Forest Village. Its a great quest even if I'm having problems.

Thanks in advance,
ms_zelda_lady

ms_zelda_lady
08-10-2005, 05:27 PM
Sorry about the double posting. Beat the boss in level 3 but can't figure out how to get the triforce piece. Tried everything in my inventory but nothing seems to work.
Thanks in advance,
ms_zelda_lady

fajz
08-10-2005, 05:46 PM
Rockfan13, I just finished Level 5 and had to tell you the hiden warps are awesome. There is NO way you are gonna find the warp I couldn't find in L5 without the Lens. To Cool rockfan to Cool. There are 5 rooms in L5 I couldn't get to Floor 1 the middle two rooms and floor 2 the two northeast rooms and the southwest room. Can you help me out a little?
Talk to you tomorrow off to work I go. Thanks again Rockfan.

sasja
08-10-2005, 06:50 PM
thank you ms zelda lady found the arrow.I'm on to finish lvl 2

ms_zelda_lady
08-10-2005, 08:20 PM
You're welcome sasja. Can anyone tell me how to get the trifoce piece from level 3. Nothing I tried worked. Got 2 treasures from level 4 already. Still looking for the boss key.

ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-10-2005, 09:03 PM
Look at an earlier post to this thread for a hint to that boss key.

(Hint: It's on the first page.)

Blackbun
08-10-2005, 09:40 PM
Ok, I gotta retract my earlier comment. This quest is sweet and there's some clever (meaning easy but not dumb) hints to get stuff. That level 2 I wouldn't have found without this forum though. Who's got time to bomb *everything*. Nice work!
****
and the room in lvl 2 where you have to bomb the jelly things to get the stairs down on the right side... really good--new trick :evil:

ms_zelda_lady
08-10-2005, 11:50 PM
Thanks for the help rocksfan13. I finally finished level 4 but still can't figure out how to get the triforce from 3. Tried to hookshot around but couldn't. Looking for level 5 now but can't find it. Been to Forest Village but can't get rid of the block. Found the fire boomerang but can't get the fence down to retrieve it. Walking in circles now because I still haven't found the small money bag to be able to get the mirror shield and but the 2nd level bracelet. Any help as to what to do next would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 07:36 AM
In level 3 hookshot leaft then up and that should get you there. As for finding level 5, use the raft and then swim around that area. As for the wallet(money bag) look for a covered hole in the forest. P.S. - Where you see water, it's always a good idea to use the whistle to see if there's something there. The fire boomerang you can't get yet.

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 07:39 AM
Superbombs are a must in this quest!

fajz
08-11-2005, 08:59 AM
Rockfan In Level 5 where you get an increase in magic, using the Lens It seem there is a stairway in the NorthEast corner of this room. How do you open it?

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 09:01 AM
What floor?

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 09:02 AM
Don't worry about it. A glitch I never removed.

fajz
08-11-2005, 09:52 AM
As my post above said there are still 5 rooms I can't get to in Level 5. Floor 2 the Northeast corner (2 rooms), floor 2 the Southeast corner (1 room), and floor 1 the middle two rooms

ms_zelda_lady
08-11-2005, 10:02 AM
Thanks for the help rocksfan13. I've have tried a few times to use the hookshot up from both sides of the room but I'll go back and try once again.

ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 10:22 AM
Fajz, (floor 2 northeast)There is a bombed wall to the west after taking the passageway. Use it to reset the darknuts in that room then find the push block. (floor 2 southeast) Use the lens. Floor 1 is another glitch. Forgot to take those rooms off the map.

fajz
08-11-2005, 11:54 AM
floor 2 northeast trying to enter from the west the wall is not bombable. Floor 2 southwest I tried the Lens from the north and the west, can't get in.

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 12:26 PM
Did you get the specials in here yet?

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 12:27 PM
Can you describe those rooms?

fajz
08-11-2005, 01:17 PM
Floor 2 is a 4 x 4 set of rooms. The 3 I can't get to are... top "row" of rooms 2 east most rooms and the other room is the very bottom right room (southeast corner). I have gotten the Boots and the Ladder out of this Level and I'm wondering is there some Food somewhere in here. I need the food in Level 6 and can't find it in the Overworld.

ms_zelda_lady
08-11-2005, 01:36 PM
There's a shop that sells the food. I'm sorry but I can't remember where it is. It might be one of the shops where you need the mushroom to buy a potion.

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 01:37 PM
It's in the forest village.

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 01:39 PM
There is nothing else of value in lv 5 fajz.

fajz
08-11-2005, 01:46 PM
L5 is in the mountains. I'm off to find some food. Thanks Ms_zelda_lady and rockfan for the info. I'd still like too see the rooms in L5. I'm the kind of person who doesn't think the quest is over until I see ALL the room and screens.

rocksfan13
08-11-2005, 02:02 PM
Keep trying. There is a way.

ms_zelda_lady
08-12-2005, 12:21 AM
Still unable to hookshot to the left and up to get the triforce in level 3. Obviously something's not right cause when I first walk into the triforce room I can use the hookshot to the left block but when I tried to use it to hookshot up to the block to get to the triforce it doesn't work. Please anybody pm with the solution.
On a brighter note I have finished level 4, explored in both levels 5 and 6 and gotten some mighty fine treasures along the way. Even got the Fire Boomerang. Only wish you had not put such a steep price for the magic book. That alone makes me want to give up on this quest already.
Don't know if I'm good enough to finish your quest rocksfan13 but I'm really going to try.
BTW how do I get rid of the blue blocks?

ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 07:26 AM
The wand. Getting that triforce piece should happen. You do manage to get around for the exit right? Move a little closer and then try to hookshot the top block again. BTW the book is the only expensive thing in the quest.

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 07:28 AM
Oh, I see. Back away from the pit and get as close to the wall as you can then try from as far away as you can.

fajz
08-12-2005, 09:08 AM
Rockfan Where might be the Wand and do I need the Book along with the Wand to finish Level 7 and the Hall in the forest village?

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 09:44 AM
The wand is in level 7 and yes you need the book to finish it.

fajz
08-12-2005, 12:18 PM
Thanks for the help with the wand. I found it and completed L7. Now one more thing at least for now. Don't tell me where it is, but if you could give me a hint as to where I might find L8 without giving the exact spot I would really appreciate it. Thanks

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 12:41 PM
subtle hint: lv 4

fajz
08-12-2005, 03:33 PM
Great hint RockFan. How many Heart Containers do I need to get the sword in the Secret Dungeon in the forest village? I have 15.3.

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 03:59 PM
all of them.

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 04:02 PM
Secret dungeon. It doesn't matter. Sorry.

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 04:03 PM
Did you get the Magic key? I'm confused.

fajz
08-12-2005, 05:33 PM
I have the magic key and have had it for a while. I'm talking about the Level 4 Sword. I have 15 hearts and 3 of the 4 needed for another heart and still can't get the sword. Anyway I have gotten too Level 9 and been into every room on the 1st floor and most of the rooms on the 2nd floor including the room that tell me there are 5 floors. Goodness this is gonna be a blast. I've already been thru 16 stair cases (warps) and haven't even finished the 2nd floor. You are an awesome quest maker. I am having a blast playing this quest. However I am going out of town this weekend so I won't be able to play until Monday. Have a nice weekend all and I'll talk to you on Monday. Ms_Zelda_Lady you'll probable be finished by then.

rocksfan13
08-12-2005, 07:18 PM
Oh ok. All of them. And thank you. BTW, I just started the sequel. Should be ready in a month or two.

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 10:09 AM
Getting the map is pushing a series of blocks in the right sequence in lv1

jjacklyn
08-15-2005, 10:18 AM
Sorry, I don't understand . I've try every blocks in the map room.(Lv1) But I still can't get it. Please tell me more clearly. THANKS!

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 10:49 AM
There are two on the left side that can be pushed 2 ways(up or sideways.) The the rest can be pushed up.

sasja
08-15-2005, 11:28 AM
found the wand thank you, will you tell me is there another way to get the book without paying so much.

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 11:37 AM
There isn't. It's the only expensive thing in this quest.

sasja
08-15-2005, 11:44 AM
o jee is there a big wallet somewhere for free, the one I saw cost 425 rupees. If I had to by that one it will take me awhile to finish lvl 7

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 01:24 PM
No. Sorry.

ms_zelda_lady
08-15-2005, 02:42 PM
Thats why I gave up on finishing the quest sasja. Its been alot of fun but having to get that much money to finish the quest isn't worth it.

ms_zelda_lady

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 02:55 PM
I am gonna reduce it to 300.

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 02:56 PM
I did kinda think it was a little steep. Look for the update soon.

sasja
08-15-2005, 04:22 PM
I agree ms zelda when I had to buy the big wallet for 425 I need to find 525 rupees to buy the book.so I only must die enemy's for hours and hours to collect 600 rupees

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 04:31 PM
I just uploaded the reduction of price to my website [url]http://www.angelfire.com/rock4/myzelda/links_retirement.htm[url]

It has been reduced to 300 rupees.

It will be in the qdb soon... I hope.

fajz
08-15-2005, 05:10 PM
Come on people. All you have too do is go to the forest and find a screen with a lot of bushes and keep going in and out of that screen for a while slashing all the bushes and just collect your money. Yea it takes a while but after you get there it feels damn good. Now for my question...RockFan which floor in Level 9 is the Silver or Gold arrow on? I'm on the 4th floor and it has a "Crab" thingy that I need a more powerful arrow to defeat. I have also found the warp to the 5th floor. Which floor has the arrow upgrade? Off to work. Talk to you tomorrow. Any more info you want to give me about the arrow upgrade I'll take, but it's not necessary.

Crackers
08-15-2005, 08:30 PM
:thumbsup: I am still using the wooden sword. Can someone tell where the first sword upgrade is? I am in lv4 now and need a better sword. I keep going in circles and can't find any of the goodies. Plus I die a lot. This quest has quite a bit of challenge to it and you really need to think. You've done a fantastic job on the dungeons.

rocksfan13
08-15-2005, 10:20 PM
The lv 2 sword is behind a bombed wall in the passage between the beach and the perpetual forest.


Fajz, The arrow is on the 5th floor.

jjacklyn
08-16-2005, 12:23 AM
Can anybody please tell me where is the 1st wallet? I'm in Lv3 now, but I can't get the blue ring and the boss key. How? Help!
Yes! I've finish Lv3. :D But I still can't find the 1st wallet. Anybody help? :(

rocksfan13
08-16-2005, 07:14 AM
Bomb the crack in the area of the heart piece in the perpetual forest.

08-16-2005, 08:58 AM
RockFan could you answer my above question (post #90) if you get a chance?

rocksfan13

Look at post #92.

08-16-2005, 09:27 AM
thanks rocksfan13 for let me have book for just 300 you're a nice guy.I'm on my way to lvl 9
I never be able to found the second bracelet so I bought myselve one. thit I missed it somewhere?

rocksfan13
08-16-2005, 10:01 AM
No. You had to buy it.

fajz
08-16-2005, 04:31 PM
Sorry RockFan. I can't see how I missed that. And Thanks.

fajz
08-17-2005, 01:04 PM
Can you tell me what floor the Boss Key is in Level9. I'm about to go crazy trying too find it.

rocksfan13
08-17-2005, 01:23 PM
The 5th floor. BTW, did you find the lv 3 ring?

fajz
08-17-2005, 05:13 PM
Yea I found the L3 ring, the Silver Arrow, the Gold Arrow, but for the life of me I can't find the Boss Key. I really need some help. PM me if you would like. I've been in every room of the 5th floor except one of the middle rooms of the bottom row. If that is where the key is I'll be bummed out. I've now looked for this key for 2 days. I've just about had it. I just know it's gonna be somewhere simple. I'll be mad at myself if it is.

rocksfan13
08-17-2005, 05:42 PM
It is. There is a secret stair case in a most unexpected place that will take you to that room. (Hint: Look close to Ganon.)

rocksfan13
08-17-2005, 05:43 PM
P.S. Ya might want to use the lens.

Crackers
08-17-2005, 06:05 PM
I've tried to follow the hint you gave in an earlier post about where to find the lens. Can you be more specific? I'm almost done with lv4 and read that your need it for lv5. What do I need to get the magic boomer? Thanks for all the help you've already given. :D

rocksfan13
08-17-2005, 10:27 PM
Dive in the lake below the heart pice. The magic boomerang is in lv 3. You need the hookshot.

fajz
08-18-2005, 08:40 AM
Awesome RockFan13, that's all I can say Awesome. I can't remember when a quest has been so much fun. I've now completed 83 custom quests and there has been a lot of great ones, but the fun of yours can only be had by playing yours. Thanks for the help on the Boss Key. Eventually I probably would have found it, but it would have taken me way longer than my patience would have held. Two thing I found that I can remember. 1) You can't buy1/2 Juices. You can buy the Red Juice but not the Blue and 2) In Level 8 floor 2 if you take the warp that is in the SouthWest corner (Red Ring room) it takes you to the clock room and you don't have to finish the Level. Again GREAT quest and I look forward to the sequel thought I have to tell you It's gonna take super human effort to beat this one.

PS I don't think you should have changed the price on the Book, but that is just my opinion.

PSS 51 deaths was way above average for a 1st time played quest. I'm usually around 30 to 35 deaths the first time around.

rocksfan13
08-18-2005, 11:01 AM
I had made it that you can't combine potions. And the sequel is in progress.

Crackers
08-18-2005, 07:51 PM
:redface: Okay, where is the lens? I checked all the area around the heart piece that was on the little island in the mountain lakes area. Am I in the wrong screen? This island is to the left of lv4. Is this right? You can send my a pm if you'd like. Sorry about asking again, but I'm stumped. :(

rocksfan13

Other side. South of the heart piece surrounded by hammer posts. Which you probably already got. It's to the west of the lv 4 island.

Help! I'm stuck in Lv 5 for 3 days. Is the same as #45 post . Anybody please help me.

Explain your problem. Do you have the lens?

Crackers
08-19-2005, 02:43 PM
Thanks for the help with the lens Rocksfan. I check out the lake earlier but just missed the spot. Haven't finished lv4 yet because I can't remember where the compass was so I can get to the left side of the level. Can you give me a refresh? This is a great quest, just wish I was a better game player.

Room full of gibdos (mummies)just above the room of ghinis(ghosts).
First floor.

Please help - Got through dungeons 1-4 and both ladder and flippers from # 5. On 2nd floor of #5 the nw top room - enter from the left and using the lens I see a path going up - without the lens it appears as a wall - how does one trigger it or do you come back around from some other warp. Also where is the compass in this level? I have the 2nd bracelet but not the 2nd candle. I have been in level 6 but reach a dead end because of no 2nd candle for the yellow block. There was also a temporary glitch - while in the mountain forest I entered the warp stairs room behind the post - tried all the stairs but they kept sending right back outside into the mountain forest. It would only correct by resetting the system - just thought you should know. If anyone can help I would sure appreciate it.
To rocksfan13 - pretty good game so far (even if I am stuck) - already looking forward to the sequel. Thanx

On screen 54 on the Beach, there is a bombable hole in which a Moblin offering money resides. An infinite loop occurs with the text, forcing the player to quit and continue.

rocksfan13
08-24-2005, 09:43 PM
The red candle is on the second floor. The compass is on the third floor. As for level 5 try burning one of the corners of the secret path. The lens shows what is to happen after the trigger, if that helps.

Thankyou - will try now and let tou know how it goes

08-25-2005, 12:25 AM
Hi Rocksfan - it's me again - thanx for the help in post #117 - I got into the passage and got the compass and boss key and killed the boss - but still cannot find red candle. There are still 3 rooms on the 2nd floor I haven't entered. Top row 2 north east rooms, bottom row it's the se most room. Or is red candle in dungeon 6. I don't want to ruin the game for anyone but I am really stumped. I even found dungeon7 and was able to write down the directions before I forgot but without the red candle I'm stuck. Thanx

rocksfan13
08-25-2005, 07:24 AM
The red candle is in level six. 2nd floor.

Thanks for letting me know about that bug boram_c. Will fix.

Entering sceen 35 in Level 2 forces the player to take two hearts of damage because Link "oversteps" when entering through a door that shuts behind of him. Was this intended?

rocksfan13
08-25-2005, 03:00 PM
Yes this was intended.

rocksfan13
08-25-2005, 04:52 PM
There was a major warp ring bug in Links Retirement. I have fixed it and you can find the fixed version at http://www.angelfire.com/rock4/myzelda/links_retirement.htm. Until it's updated.

Thanks for playing!

08-25-2005, 05:05 PM
Thanx again RF - really enjoying the game but lately it seems I have waste product for grey matter. I must have been through level 5 around a dozen times - not I know why I couldn't find it. Happy to help about the bug - am downloading the new version now. If ya ever need a beta tester just let me know - will be glad to help.

08-25-2005, 08:04 PM
How do I reach Level 3? I read others' posts about being able to find it, while being unable to find Level 2. Is it within the Forest?

rocksfan13
08-26-2005, 07:29 AM
Yes, Level 3 is in the forest. Just go west then south and you should find it.

boram_c
08-26-2005, 03:55 PM
I am on the main floor of the third level. How do I reach the stairs to the lower level on the left wing of the dungeon? I found and obtained the map and compass, but I am missing a key for the NW door for screen 50.

08-26-2005, 05:06 PM
can some one help me. I am stuck. I passed level 1 i can't get the yellow shield on the beach next to the shop. i can't get the heart container near the shed, or the one in the open in the perpetual forrest. I can't get to the red boomerang, or the red braclet in the perpetual forrest. I also can't find the hook shot to jump the gaps. I also can't get to the target in the cave right before the perpetual forrest. Does anyone have any answers?

emillissauer
08-26-2005, 05:43 PM
Also where can i find some place that enhables me to hold some more bombs?Also can someone be more specific about the place to find the 2nd level sword. I've been bombing all arround the passage between the beach and the perpetual forrest and i can't find it. Thanks.

emillissauer
08-26-2005, 07:20 PM
one last thing. i found level 2 but the door is locked how do i get in.

rocksfan13
08-26-2005, 09:30 PM
boram_c: Try using the whistle.

emillissauer: Bombs increase at Mountain Lakes.
Level 2 sword -> the target between the beach and
perpetual forest. Bow in level 2.
Hookshot -> level 3
Open level 2 with candle in the pire
Need wand for mirror shield.
Need ladder for heart piece in forest
Need hammer for Heart next to shed
Finish level 3 then try to get the other things like the
braclet.
Need red candle for fire boomerang.

emillissauer
08-27-2005, 01:40 AM
Thanks Rocksfan, now can you help me find the compass room in level four. i've got all the stuff, i just can't seem to find the boss key, the enemy, and the tri force. also i was in the village hall and tried to burn the square as it tells me to do, but nothing happened, why? Thanks,
I am having a blast playing this quest thanks.

rocksfan13
08-27-2005, 09:34 AM
Need red candle.
Secret stairs in room where you got the compass.
There was an earlier post about this. It explains more.

08-27-2005, 10:20 AM
rocksfan13 you got a good quest here, but you should be thinking about your next quest. start it ASAP, if you want to be a good quest maker, never give them much information about it. im not saying your bad either you just should be thinking about it

emillissauer
08-27-2005, 01:47 PM
i am in level 6 in a room that has a set of stairs but i cannot reveal them, anyone know how to do it. its the room all the way right and two from the top. Thanks.

rocksfan13
08-27-2005, 09:41 PM
Glass: Already in the works.

Emillissauer: What floor?

emillissauer
08-27-2005, 10:11 PM
i figured it out. But now i'm in level 7 and i am totally stumped on the wand. i have done everything i can think of in the four south east room. can you help?

emillissauer
08-27-2005, 11:43 PM
i think i know where the wand is i just seem to be missing a key is that possible. is there a store where you can buy extra keys? if not could anyone help me find the wand i am absolutely stuck. also is there a way to get to the right of the wastland maze?

rocksfan13
08-28-2005, 02:17 PM
There isn't a way to buy any keys until you get the wand. And yes you are probably missing a secret. There is no way to the right of the wasteland maze.

emillissauer
08-28-2005, 02:52 PM
Rocksfan, can you send me a pm and tell me how to get the wand and which room its in specifically? I have been spending days trying to find it? i was aving the best time playing, but now i am stuck and can't continue. Thanks.

boram_c
08-28-2005, 05:18 PM
In level 3, the northern door in room 77 does not lead back downstairs. Instead, it sends the player into the room directly north of it (room 67) like a one-way door. Was this intended?

Update: Is there a lack of keys in Level 3? I found that the entrance room in Level 3 has a secret passage that leads to an empty item cellar. Was this intentional?

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 07:31 AM
The glitch in room 77 is a stair warp I missed, Thank you.
The entrance room is another warp I missed. I will fix ASAP.
If these errors hinder anyone let me know. And thanks boram_c.

boram_c
08-29-2005, 09:13 AM
In the Mountain Lakes area, near the SE corner of screen 16, there is a way to go east (although probably unintended because of the empty screen 17).

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 10:14 AM
Missed water. Needs changed. Thanks.

emillissauer
08-29-2005, 11:23 AM
Rocksfan I am still stuck trying to get the wand can you give me a hint on the secret i am missing?

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 11:53 AM
Do you need a key?

emillissauer
08-29-2005, 12:09 PM
If the wand is in the room second from the bottom in the middle, yes i need a key, or a way to get across the blocks. If it is in the room on the middle bottom then i need to reveal the stairs. If i need the key from the room on the bottom right then i don't know how to get that. Thanks

boram_c
08-29-2005, 12:41 PM
Room 21 of Level 5 has a faulty passageway that leads into another empty cellar.

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 01:01 PM
Okay boram_c another back track missed.

The wand is in the bottom two rooms.
What room are you stuck in?

emillissauer
08-29-2005, 01:03 PM
i am in the bottom middle room and i cannot reveal the stairs?

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 01:20 PM
You need the wand. What door do you need the key for?

emillissauer
08-29-2005, 01:47 PM
I'm trying to understand, i need the wand to open the door in the bottom middle room. Yet the wand is in one of the two bottome rooms, either the bottom middle or the bottom right. If the wand is in the bottom right i have no idea how to get it. If the wand is second from the bottom in the middle ( acroos the stones) i need a key to go past the room that tells me i need the book. I am totally lost thanks for your patience?

emillissauer
08-29-2005, 02:03 PM
I sent you a Pm rocksfan.

Gendof
08-29-2005, 02:08 PM
I also am stuck where emillissauer is. It appears that I need the wand to access entrance in middle bottom room.
Tried everything, I think.

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 02:25 PM
The wand is in the room with the statue of Ganon. I have found a glitch. I need to fix something in a room in order for you to get the key in the middle. In the bottom right, the key in the middle.

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 02:49 PM
When I update it it, I will post it here.

boram_c
08-29-2005, 03:37 PM
Near the NW corner of the screen with the Level 2 entrance is a path for a swimmer to go into a blank screen.

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 04:50 PM
boram_c: Do me a favor and compile a list and e-mail it to me. It will be easier to remember.

The update has been made. Refer to post #1 for the link until the Qdb is updated.

Sorry for any inconvieniences. And thanks for letting me know. Keep it up! :)

emillissauer
08-29-2005, 05:01 PM
I'm curious, how did other people get past this section? Other people have been talking about level 9, how were they able to get there? Thanks for the update. I was able to pass the level.

rocksfan13
08-29-2005, 07:27 PM
I don't know. They must have saved a key somewhere.

Okay rocksfan13, I'll keep track of everything I catch.

emillissauer
08-30-2005, 10:21 AM
I beat it. Thanks rocksfan, i enjoyed that tremendously. One question though, i missed 1/4 of a heart container. Any hints on finding some tough to find ones. Maybe ones you can't find using the lens. Thanks again.

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 10:30 AM
Not without knowing which ones you got from where. You beat the quest?

Gendof
08-30-2005, 12:24 PM
Emil or Rocksfan,
L8...master keys???
Or 2nd bracelet???
Hints??
Thx

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 12:40 PM
Explain a little better.

08-30-2005, 12:45 PM
I have not been able to find the master keys for two rooms of Level eight. I have otherwise completed it...and cannot proceed to Level nine without level 2 bracelet.

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 01:04 PM
The level 2 braclet you must purchase. The shop on the beach where level 2 is. Do you have the magic Key?

Gendof
08-30-2005, 01:09 PM
I have the magic Key... I thought the bracelet for sale ther was the one I already have.
Thanks

I'm lost. I can't find level 3. Is it located by level 1?

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 01:30 PM
No. It's in the perpetual forest. Look for stairs on the beach near level 2.

emillissauer
08-30-2005, 01:34 PM
Yup i was able to beat the quest. Even though i never got the level three sword. I wanted to go back and get it though so i was trying to figure out which heart container i missed. I'll try to be vague so as not to let everyone know where they are. I obviously got all the ones that were visible, i think i got all the ones that you can see using the lens . I got one on a board where you had to kill the creatures and it appears. i got one under water i think, and i think i moved a rock for another. Over all am missing just 1/4 of a heart. Any hints would greatly be appreciated. Thanks

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 01:36 PM
Try all the water. And all the rocks. Not all are pushed. Some water you need to be in a specific spot.

sctmorgan
08-30-2005, 01:58 PM
I'm stumped. I'm still unable to locate level 3. I have been to the Perpetual Forest and the Desert but no level 3. Can you provide me with another hint?

emillissauer
08-30-2005, 02:07 PM
Under the rocks that can't be pushed, can you see the opening with the lens. Can you give me the areas ( i.e. The beach) where there are stones and water with hearts,and how many hearts are in them?

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 02:10 PM
yes. Yes you can.

sctmorgan
08-30-2005, 02:13 PM
I haven't gotten the lens yet. I've tried bombing the rocks on Mountain Beach but I've try again.

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 02:37 PM
Not mountain beach. The other beach where you got the raft.

emillissauer
08-30-2005, 02:47 PM
does the message, burn the dying cacus on the beach refer to a heart container, and if so which board is it on cause i can't find it?I there a container in a passage way?

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 02:53 PM
does the message, burn the dying cacus on the beach refer to a heart container, and if so which board is it on cause i can't find it?I there a container in a passage way?

I just sent you a pm. Maybe that will help.

BTW the cactus is on the mountain beach.

boram_c
08-30-2005, 03:11 PM
I have arrived at the 5th floor, but want to exit the dungeon (to obtain more potion, find missing heart pieces, etc.). Whenever I quit and either continue or save, I always end up at the fifth floor entrance. I can't seem to leave on my own as well. Is there a way to exit?

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 03:20 PM
Yes. Find the silver arrow. Then shoot the target. Or navigate back down all 5 floors.

emillissauer
08-30-2005, 03:33 PM
I know i'm having a brain fart, but how do you get to the mountain homeland.

rocksfan13
08-30-2005, 04:03 PM
Whistle warp to level 6. Then go east to the mountain beach, then directly north.

emillissauer
08-30-2005, 04:17 PM
sorry i forgot it had been so long since i was here. Rocksfan sent you a pm.

boram_c
08-30-2005, 07:19 PM
Yes. Find the silver arrow. Then shoot the target. Or navigate back down all 5 floors.
One cannot navigate back across a pit in the 4th floor near the entrance to the 5th (one or two rooms south of a string of bosses) because there is nothing that a hookshot can grapple onto.

jjacklyn
08-30-2005, 08:10 PM

You can view the overworld map by pressing the coressponding key the you set to view it under settings->keys. The dungeons will probably work the same way.

I finally had time to pick up this quest and I am having a good time! I saw that the magic boomerang is in level 3 but I have not found it yet. I believe that I have been in every room and I have finished the level with both the hookshot and the blue ring. If anyone can tell me what I am missing it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

You are missing a whistle secret somewhere.

You are missing a whistle secret somewhere.

Hmmm.. this doesn't have anything to do with that room with the lanmolas does it? I found that room but didn't see anything else after I beat them. I will keep on whistling around though.

Did we ever solve the mystery of those three rooms on the second floor of Level 5 or are we just going to forget about it.

What mystery?

You can buy some or you can find the magic key.

TheWanderer
12-12-2005, 07:22 PM
The two in the upper right on floor two and the one in the lower right on floor two. I think you said something about them being of no importance so nevermind. :laughing:

TheWanderer
12-12-2005, 07:50 PM
Now I'm stuck on level 7 like others were on the last page. I can get to the room right before the room with the wand but I can't get in the room because of a lack of keys. I can see one key on the second floor in the lower right room but I can't get to it because of a blue block that I can only assume is broken with the wand. A little help would be lovely thank you. Oh and I have downloaded the most receint update.

gekos
12-12-2005, 08:35 PM
Can you give me a hint on the magic key? What floor is it on?

Jeyla
12-12-2005, 11:24 PM
<sigh>

I'm trying to find level 3, and I've read all the posts about the perpetual forest. I have tried everything on all the parts of the beach I can get to, but I've never even SEEN the perpetual forest. I read that it's stairs on the beach near level 2, but level 2 is just a little island, and it's not there, and I've backtracked all the way back to each section of beach, and I just can't find it, or the perpetual forest or the passageway between the beach and perpetual forest where the sword is.

What am I doing wrong?

btw...great quest Rocksfan...I'm not the greatest player, but I'm really enjoying it. I find it pretty hard, but that's what makes it fun.

TheWanderer
12-12-2005, 11:25 PM
I'll put it this way when your on two of the raft rides you can see where the cave is.

Jeyla
12-12-2005, 11:52 PM
Thx for trying to help Wanderer. But I can only see one cave on my raft rides, and it's not a dungeon, it's a passageway (if you mean the one to the west as you're going either north or south on the raft.

I found the perpetual forest, but it appears to be one or two screens and that's it.

I'm so lost :(

TheWanderer
12-13-2005, 12:05 AM
I never said you can see the cave itself I said you can see where the cave is. ;)

Jeyla
12-13-2005, 12:13 AM
Ok, thanks...I'll start burning and bombing everything for the fifth time, I guess. Obviously I'm missing something with the perpetual forest though. The only part of it I can see is two screens that lead to level 1. Obviously there's more to it from what I've read here, but I can't find it at all.

Thanks for the help. If I can't find either the rest of the forest or level 3 this time, I'm going to have to give up.

TheWanderer
12-13-2005, 12:18 AM
Oh your still searching the level one section? There are two sections to the P forest the level one section, then you go to the beach and level two, then from the beach you find a passageway and get to the much larger second part of the P forest :laughing: Sorry for the mix up.

Jeyla
12-13-2005, 12:24 AM
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

lol

Ok...just so I'm sure...I beat level 2 and sailed back over to the beach where the little brown building is that houses a passageway. So I have to go through there and look around where the arrow shop is?

Sorry I'm so dumb :(

Jeyla
12-13-2005, 12:47 AM
Ok...I surrender. Six hours looking for a single passageway is just too much for me.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I can't find it anywhere.

It was fun, Rocksfan..thanks. And thanks to Wanderer for trying to help, but I just refuse to go over the same areas for any more hours. I think I better try and find an easier quest.

:)

Edited for one last plea. I really don't want to quit this quest becuse I really like it, so can someone please post or even pm me with the EXACT location of this passageway to level 3 and the perpetual forest? Pretend I'm a five year old and talk slowly and clearly? lol

rocksfan13
12-13-2005, 08:27 AM
Jeyla: To find the perpetual forest, slash a bush. This can be done either before or after completeing level 2, but you will need the item from level 2 to access level 3. There is only one place on the beach that has bushes. The south east corner. Try there.

Gekos: The key is in a village. Remember the mayor that was hiding things?

In level 5. If you see a lit torch on a wall that the lens shows, burn it.
Village Hall don't worry about until after level 7. The item you need is in there.

Not in a level it's underwater on a screen near level 4.

And to rockfan a lot of the text said by shop keeps and other npcs in the wastelands and the 'nut village are stringed together to the point were some npcs are saying other npcs lines. Just thought you sould know. :D also the music for the village Hall is badass, where's it from?

Thanks. The music I got from PureZC, for that. I think it's called decisions.

omg...I am SUCH an idiot

Thank you so much, Rocksfan and Wanderer. I can't believe I couldn't find that passage. I bombed, burned, boomeranged, whistled, and arrowed that thing at least 10 times, lol. I did everything but the most obvious thing, and I spent over 8 hours because of my stupidity, lol.

Anyway, I have found level 3 and the forest, and all is right with the world again :)

I love this quest. It's the best one I've played so far, even though, like I said before, I'm not a very good player and I find it really hard, but it wouldn't be as fun if it was easy. Once I beat this one, I'm gonna play your other quest.

With my playing skills, that should be in about six months from now, lol.

I'm just trying to find one more key in level 3, but did I read I have to download a patch or newer version, or am I just not finding the last key I need?

I'll go read the other posts first, but if I do need a later version, is there a link?

Thanks again for all your help.

:)

Links on the first post. Also, cause I know this question has been asked, your save file can transfer over as long as you just replace the old file.

There is a hint nearby, but you have to pay for it.

12-15-2005, 11:18 AM
i did pay for it it told me that he had nothing for me and did i forget about the forest village.

You can't go through that until after you get the item from level 7.
That line is just a reminder.

The strings are messed up! Darn!

"The path is South, East, East, North."

That's what he should have told you. I'll have to fix that too.

thanx for the dir. to lost wasteland, but i can't find the item in lvl 7. i believe that you go through a passage and immediately return to get it but its not there, and what is the wise guy in that lvl supposed to say. sorry to be such a pain.

rocksfan13
12-15-2005, 04:47 PM
What floor? And what item?

zrookie
12-15-2005, 05:07 PM
sorry first floor guy and i belive its the magic wand. the first floor guy says something about remembering the forest village.

ok so i know where the wand is but i can't figure out what the trigger is tried everything except what works but i can't find out what it is. thanx

You need to download the updated version from the DB. The old man says the right thing.

zrookie
12-15-2005, 09:57 PM
OK so now we get back to the original ? what am i supposed to remember about the forest village? (cause i did forget) :D
thanx

An item the mayor is hiding.

zrookie
12-16-2005, 11:18 AM
OK i seem to be caught in a catch 22. I need an item from the mayor to proceed in lvl 7, but i think i need the item in lvl 7 to proceed in the village hall. so where is my mistake and how do i get past the first room of the subbasement in the village hall. i think it has to do with the design on the wall but i've tried everything i can and nothing works.
thanx

rocksfan13
12-16-2005, 12:46 PM
No. You have it backwards. The item the mayor has, you do not need to continue through level 7.

You need the item from level 7 to pass the village hall. Remeber that hint from the old man is just a reminder. It doesn't necessarily mean you need to go back to the village to continue thru the level.

rocksfan: L9 - What floor is the silver arrow in and the L2 bracelet in?

rocksfan13
12-16-2005, 03:44 PM
1. If you're in Lv 9, you already have the L2 braclet.

2. 5th Floor.

please point me to the boss key in lvl 9. it seems i've been going in circles for ever. found everything else but that.
thanx

The boss key is through a secret passage. Look for a room with just wall masters. Use the lens.

Hint: It's pretty close to Ganon on the West side.

i had a great time with this quest. i just finished (21 lives and 25 hours thought i'd never get through lvl 9).

off to play i go.

Can anyone please give me a hint as to which area level 6 is in? I found level 7, but I can't seem to find 6 anywhere.

This quest is so fun.

Go back to where you started. In the desert there, you will find information that may help you.

Thx Rocksfan...right after I posted, I re-read this entire thread and backtracked from the other person's post on how to get back to Mountain Homeland. Once I had the area, It was easy to find.

Thanks anyway, though. Guess I should look harder before I post.
