Are you talking about the room just to right of the entrance? I already poked around in there and the power bracelet is not what I found All I seem to be doing is walking around in the basement. I'm not able to reach the top row ands I can't figure out how to. I'm betting that the power bracelet is there.

:cry: Please somebody send me a pm with the solution cause I just can't get it. Am I supposed to have the Magic Sword because I don't have it. I try to do the Museum of War and found it too hard with the blue suit so I figured I would get the hookshot from level 8, buy the blue suit and then tackle the Museum.

I am in level 9 and have the master key except I am 1 key away from getting mirror shield. i even started with my extra key so i am2 keys short. i downloaded the new version to buy another key, but can't find the shop. is it in the same place in both versions? i searched the southeast corner (and found a missing heart piece too), but can't get anywhere now. any help?

ms_zelda_lady: Slash the skull in the room with the old guy. There's a pit that you can drop into.

jambo: You need to bomb a wall to get to the key shop, but you should be able to find all the keys you need in level 9...

after your message i decided to go back and find them without buying a key. I discovered that i kept going down the hole on the second floor and never went outside or to the right! duh! i finished up the quest and found everything but one hcp. i might go back and get it but i am pooped. thanks for making a great quest. i especially like the difficulty of the puzzles.

Ok, something seems wrong here:

I finished 3 levels (3 triforce pieces) and am currently 1 key away from finishing the core.

I have the hammer, the lvl 2 glove, bow&arrow, lvl1 candle, white sword.

Is that core now lvl 4?
Or 7?
If 7, why can i get there without finishing 4,5,and 6?
If the level where i can walk behind the candle in the first floor is level 4, where was level 3?

And where is the last key for the core to obtain the boss key?

The core is level 7!! How did you possible get that far? You must be one heck of a great player or I must really be that bad....LOL Level 3 hmmm I remember it's called the Shrine of Sands but I can't remember exactly where it was.

Hm..then ill have to catch up a few levels it seems.

Nevertheless, where is the last key to get the boss key in the core?

Also, i seem to be missing the red candle and/or the raft...

I think the path to that key starts on basement 1, there are hammer pegs in the room that had a manhandla.

The red candle and the raft are in level 5. You need the ladder to get there, which was in level 3. Level 3 is in the Wounded Dunes.

I suspect that you got the blue candle from level 3, then completed level 4, and are now in level 7.

jambo, congrats on finishing!

I think i have the lvl6-key problem... cross, no magic wand, no keys and a locked door.

can i download the .qst file which has a key vendor in it, and continue with my saved game?
Cause i DLd the .qst file from your website, but cant find no key shop in the overworld.

ok, i managed lvl 6, now im back in the core...

nothing changed for me, i have both items, no key abd no boss key (for which i need the key i guess)

any hints?

diannew--Push the rock with a Triforce on it.
andnay--There's a room in basement 1 near the center of the map with a Manhandla and hammer pegs. Pound them and follow the long path to a key.

I like this quest. Challenging and all that, and a nice choice in music.
Haven't been playing long, but I might've ran into a problem.
Playing on 2.10, and am in level 3. Have torch and ladder, but.. umm, I'm stuck.
I'm guessing I'm supposed to use the ladder where Link is standing in this screenie...

To get to the platform across from me, work my way around to the stairs and go up...
Now, here's the problem. It won't let me use the ladder there. I can only use it one square above where Link is standing.
Am I forgetting something else, elsewhere in this dungeon, or am I having a bit of a real problem?
Thanks.

Darkcleod: Hmm, that's weird. Are you playing the regular quest, or Easy Mode? Are there any other pits in this level that you can't use the ladder on? Are you using the 2.10.2 player? I'm not able to reproduce this problem...

Playing the regular version of the quest on 2.12.2 (sorry, didn't notice that last part earlier...)
Found out I also can't use the ladder to get to the teleport pad in the room where the ladder was... think it was that room anyway. the one with the teleport pad near the bottom left, with a small gap north and east of it, leaving crossing either gap the only way to it.

Ok, sorry for the mistype, meant 2.10.2.
As for other places, within that level I have...

In that one, I can go right on any of the two spaces above Link, but not from where he's standing. Can not use the ladder anywhere else on that screen...

EDIT: OK, after doing some checking, it looks like the folder was mislabled or somesuch (got it from a friend...) and it's really 2.5, not 2.10.2 as I was told.

EDIT EDIT: alright... after more looking and comparing (mostly noticing the file icons were different and downloading versions till I found a duplicate) this is the version I'm running. Zip names it as one thing (2.5), folder inside has ti as another (2.11) so.. this is which I'm using...

Hey all! I started playing this quest about a week ago, and am enjoying it greatly, but I have not been able to find the candle yet. I've made it through the first two levels, and have gotten the sword upgrade, the slash technique and the ocarina, but haven't been able to make much progress in Level 3.

Aside from not having the candle, there are also a couple of block puzzles in level three i haven't been able to figure out. The first is in the room with four blocks that can only move one space, and two that can move any number of spaces. What's the correct configuration?

The second is a room where there are two chambers, a small one on the bottom right with a discolored floor tile and an eye statue, and a longer passage on the left with a discolored brick that blocks the way. I've tried moving it, bombing it, and using the ocarina, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

EDIT: Okay, I found the candle in Level 3, but now am missing the ladder. Is that something I should have gotten prior to Level 3, or is it hidden somewhere in there? I figured out one of the block puzzles (the four blocks that only move one space, and the two that move any number of spaces) and assume that for the other one you drop down from the second floor behind that block, but am not sure yet. Any help on finding the ladder would be greatly appreciated though. Thanks!!

Ladder is also in Lvl 3. Heh, trust me. In fact, I've made mention that one of the areas I'm having problems is the same room you get the ladder in. Even posted a screenie of the room.

stigmata242: The discolored bricks can be burned with the candle. I don't think there are any block puzzles that require you to drop down a floor in level 3...

Darkcleod: You are playing with ZC 2.11b17, which I expect is the reason why your ladder is screwed up. You need to play with ZC 2.10.2. Your save file might be compatible; when you download the new version, move the "zelda.sav" file from the 2.11 folder into the 2.10 folder and see if that works.

I need help with level 4 of this superb quest. I have the big key, the bow and arrows, and most of the three floors explored. I need to get to the big key door on Floor 1 but I can't seem to get over there. I think the solution lies in Basement 1, but I am stumped after wandering around and trying all sorts of stuff for over an hour. What should I do, and to what does the hint about walking behind torches pertain? Thanks! I eagerly await a reply.

The clue about walking behind the torches pertains to the two torches in the first room of the dungeon. Walk behind either one of them and you'll see what the clue means. I think once you start exploring where those take you to, you should be able to find the big key, but post if you're still having problems.

Just out of curiosity, what's the rate of bomb upgrades in this quest? I'm heading in to level 5, and have found two upgrades (12 bombs) but wanted to see if anyone knew of any others that could be found before level 5. I'm not so much looking for locations, just wanted to know if I missed anything. Thanks!

Thanks for the tip!I tried every torch in the place except those! Haha! I'll try it out tomorrow.
