link's retirement

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...

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

I don't have the bow and arrow. Must have missed them somewhere. So where can I find them?

Thanks,

Did you go through level 2?

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.

Nope I never found level 2 rocksfan13. Where is it?

Thanks,
ms_zelda_lady

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?

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

Did you try bombing any of the cracks?

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.

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

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.

There might be something you assumed on the beach was there but really isn't. Try that shop.

Sasja I"m sending you a pm. Thanks rocksfan13 for the hint. I think I just figured it out.

ms_zelda_lady

your welcome

: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

I told you that you needed to think about some things. I tried to warn you! Thanks by the way.

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.

in the room where you got the compass there is a secret path.

Let me know if you found it.

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?

Do you have the lens?

You might want to find it if you don't.

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.

Dive around the lake just south of the entrance to the mountain lakes

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

Let me know how you fare.
