Bow of Light - Fast & Safe - Inventory Slot Transfer (IST) - Breath of the Wild

[@onelinkyboi4470]

For anyone confused on how to get the Bow of Light from Normal to Master Mode, prep a master mode file with an open slot for a bow, save the game, then return to normal mode and load the autosave where you did arrow-less offset. Perform the arrow-less offset glitch, follow all steps and when you load the primary save file, instead return to the title screen and load your master mode save. You will have the bow of light but champion abilities will be duplicated. To solve this, get an autosave and load the autosave, and everything should be back to normal!

Thank you for this tutorial! This was the first major glitch I’ve done on my own save file and while it was nerve wracking worrying about my save you were incredibly clear with what you had to do and though I was lost at some points, I realized it was my fault and got it to work eventually. Awesome video keep it up! :) gonna mess around with this bow now lol

[@fazeobito5707]

did you restart the game?

[@fastboi2390]

A few notes to those performing the glitch: When you get to this part, 13:25 with the "Make sure your bow is unequipped, then load your primary save", ONLY LOAD THE PRIMARY SAVE, DO NOT LOAD ANY OTHER AUTO SAVE! It is possible that when you check for your Bow of Light to make sure it's unequipped, it may have "disappeared" from your inventory. This happened to me. Despite this, do not panic, and load your primary save anyway! You still technically have it! You should be fine once the primary save loads, and you should have the Bow of Light. I'm not sure what causes it to disappear from the inventory, but I guess the game still knows you have it. On that note, Here's a little story about what happened to me with this issue: I got to that part exactly, and I went to "make sure my bow was unequipped" I scrolled over to the Bow section of the inventory, but it wasn't there. It had disappeared. I didn't know WHAT to think or what to do. I figured "Shoot I must've messed up the glitch when doing the weapons smuggle thing, better load the previous autosave just before I did the Arrowless Offset thing" Fortunately this didn't have any super bad gamebreaking/file corrupting consequences, but I found out I actually DID still have the Bow of Light, because when I loaded that previous Autosave, I now had TWO Bows of Light! Meaning I still actually had it, and it transferred over to this Autosave since it was the next save I loaded (instead of the Primary Hard Save). Fortunately/Unfortunately, all I had to do was perform Arrowless Offset and do the Weapon Smuggle thing over again, this time loading the correct save. I am happy to report that I now have the Bow of Light, and have started a Crusade to kill every enemy in Hyrule without letting the Blood Moon pass, for which the Bow of Light will be most helpful. This is an AMAZING tutorial. Perfectly crafted and edited, super helpful and clear. Thank you.

[@jakehoyt8171]

What happens if something goes wrong? Like maybe near the end? Do I quit the game to stop the IST glitch, or just reload my hard save? Is there a way for me not to mess up my official game?

[@fastboi2390]

@@jakehoyt8171 That depends on what exactly went wrong. Usually I'd say just reload the last autosave, like I accidentally did. But it depends on the thing that "went wrong"

[@Gray-scale0]

@@videojasper what'd you do? same problem for me

[@chillagerr]

Things I recommend as doing this glitch: - Don't be afraid to rewatch the video for extra steps. Watch what he does carefully. - Grab a pen and paper. Count the amount of times you've done offset and for the caluclation, procede carefully. - It's very easy to get stressed about this glitch since it seems scary, but just remain calm and focus. - REMEMBER X IS NOT HOW YOU ADD ITEMS TO YOUR ITEM STACK. It costed me SO much time. X is to START holding, A is to ADD to holding. - If you're unsure, relaunch the game and be safe. Ultimately, it takes just around and hour or so to do, so if you reload it's not catastrophic. The thing that takes the most time is offset generation.

[@HazbinHotelStaff]

I can't understand how Offeset generating works. I've watched this many times and I can't understand. Must be my ADHD 😆

[@alb3x]

yeah while i generated my offsets i was very nervous and miscalculated and mess the nuke part up,but still i will try it again this week as im getting more familiar with this glitch,and even tho its really stressfull im having soo much fun

[@endernotchstaff2306]

Does the offset have to be 64

[@HazbinHotelStaff]

@@endernotchstaff2306 no. That was just his number. Whatever key items you have (more or less) you count those and include the key items that can be duplicated by 2. Any arrow slots and unsellable armor and stuff by two. That will be your number of offsets you'd have to create.

[@HazbinHotelStaff]

@@endernotchstaff2306 Your offset number can be 20 for example. Whatever the number is, just make that many offsets.

[@samidobrikot1421]

This guide was really helpful, thank you for it. As an european PC enjoyer i want to say for those, who uses cemu like me that this glitch IS working on cemu, you just need more times 3/5 bows for inventory overload. Also if you have an fps+ graphic pack, than arrowless offset would be easier with lower fps, for you to hit thos treaky timings.

[@chyuame]

This is actually a lot easier to understand now :o I really thought I first have to deal with a save with only the BoL instead, I was relieved to realize all you had to do was have an empty bow slot for the hard save. Thank you again for the cool tutorial!

[@ElDuende05]

Appreciate it! I have one more installment planned which should cover inventory corruption and getting 80k arrows.

[@gregpl9363]

Damn it, for some reason my mahym Ava a shrine save (with the bow) has 2 light bows and some extra copies, but when I do the weapon smuggle (even tried with more slots) When I return to my og save, the bow isn’t there but I have like 4 slots of Koepka seeds, invisible champion slots etc but no bow, what can I do to either reset or fix it?

[@gregpl9363]

Exactly bro but i did it in master mode, so 1 save 1 auto save 😮‍💨. Funny thing is, you’ve heard about the “master” glitch right? The one you can only do in normal mode with the memory storage? Had that one first try. Bow of light and all. I think I botched my offset count, or made a mistake with when to be in menu overload and when not. Ah well guess I’ll have some fun with the auto save file and erase it afterwards 😓 thnks for the comment ✌️

[@gregpl9363]

I did it man! Turns out my hard save wasn’t corrupted after a reboot. Tried it again and noticed that at some point I didn’t rid myself of the gear I wore combined with the miscount in offset. Just finished couple of minutes ago and everything is in tact including the BoL. Also just noticed now that el duende did it in normal mode which makes switching to another auto save a lot easier. In master mode you got one shot 😅 ah well I’m glad it worked out! Good luck !

[@gregpl9363]

Thank you very much dude, just did it in master mode and worked like a gem. Finally enjoying my bow of light in master mode. Had it in normal mode already because of the previous memory storage glitch. Thanks again!

[@CM_ChocolateMiracles]

For anyone that wants a quicker way of counting how many items you have, keep in mind a inventory page is 20 items (5x4)

[@ElDuende05]

Good tip! Just make sure you estimate on the high side and that should work out ok,

[@C1nematic24]

Just did this today! Such an amazing glitch and even better information and instructions! Also as a side bar for anyone doing this, after you get the BOL on your main file you can display it in your house, run away across the bridge, and come back to you house to pick it up and as long as you have an available bow slot you’ll get another one :) free dupe essentially 😊

[@atheybengala5720]

What if i have only 1 slot? Do i get it just once?

[@Egg121]

How many offset generation slots do u need to generate?

[@JesseDalba]

Okay guys I spent about 4 hours on this here is some tips. You can go from a regular mode to master mode. You have to load a master mode file, load back into the dup save, then load back into master mode and the bow of light will be there. I had issues with the Nuking inventory step. I corrected this by overshooting my overset. So if you have 30 do 40.

[@Shadiss]

Lesson for others: It’s okay to keep the bow of light equipped when nuking your inventory. I thought I screwed up when I forgot to dequip the bow of light when dropping everything. My inventory cleared but I still had the bow of light equipped and couldn’t remove it. It spooked me and I fumbled everything. My buffer wasn’t big enough to save me and I had to reset. That was the one part that the words alone weren’t enough to follow it by, but I did load the autosave that was made and I no longer had the bow equipped. So it worked out.

[@dexei3150]

This is confusing, is it okay or not okay to have it wquipped when you close and reopen the game? Originally you say its okay but later you said you fumbled it.

[@cjendantix]

@@dexei3150 He's saying don't do it but if you do on accident you can recover pretty easily

So how do you fix it?

[@DarkLightCR]

It took me about 2-3 hours, but I FINALLY managed to do it! You are the GOAT for this one For all you guys: - The procedure of the final offsets won’t work if your 2 weapons are spears or 1 handed weapons, they have to be 1 handed weapons (a sword, torch, etc.)

[@silverdragon1005]

I love this method of getting the Bow of Light outside the Beast Ganon fight! I have been waiting a long time to get the BoL on my save.

Dropped the items and continued with the process. Ended up bringing the 2 weapons and shield I had put on the wall back with, effectively but inadvertently duplicating the weapons.

It’s all a bit unbelievable. Sounds too good to be true but actually as advertised. I just wish I’d been clearer during the “sell all your stuff” part that you’d get it all back as long as you don’t manually save while your inventory is cleared. The purpose of getting rid of as much as you can is to reduce the number of slots required to trick the game into clearing out your entire inventory, which is vital to ensure only the BoL is transferred back to your target safe at the end.

tried the fight with the bow of light, nothing happened, although iirc there was some weird duplicating of the bow but it was fixed after the battle

[@julian-ti9gh]

Nope, it cant mess up anything because if your done with the ganon fight your autosave infront of the room before ganon will be loaded. While the fight you should have like 3 bows of light but that will be fixed after the fight as i already said.

[@CJmakesspedmemes]

@@aarushi2740 it didn’t duplicate the bow, you just got an extra

This tutorial is so good. My only issue is I started messing with the bow around and now I just have a normal file with the bow of light and I have no idea of how to transfer it to the master mode, where my main save is. Any tips?

[@Jason9637]

Do the final transfer step, but instead of loading the normal target save, switch to master mode and load that save

holy shit. thank you so much. it seemed so intimidating at first but it didn’t take as much time as i expected, only like an hour or so to understand everything and get it to work. Thank you.

[@ElDuende05]

It seems too good to be true, but is a rare case of actually working as described.

[@c-k_entertainment]

Sooo, funny story. I was doing the glitch and I got to the part where you're supposed to nuke your inventory. I did what you said to do but, I still had duplicates of stuff. I panicked and reloaded my original save. I tried it again but, it still did the same thing, so I just used HPE to get rid of the dupes. Wonderful tutorial.

[@junii-san]

What an amazing tutorial! I’ll admit, I had to check the upload date when you said to sell everything, but nope! It’s legit! Thanks!

during the last step (where you trigger an autosave then reopen the game) the inventory will show extra key items, do not worry about this just continue the steps as normal the extra blank key items will disappear from the menu

[@jaymonwhite9668]

This is a great tutorial, easy to follow and stress free. If you are wondering if you should do this glitch my immediate answer is yes. The bow of light is great. But. If you are going to do this glitch make sure to pay GREAT attention. Do everything exact. I made this mistake and it took me hours to recover.

[@ElDuende05]

Rule #1, and the only one you absolutely can’t break while doing this, is to not overwrite your manual save. As long as you still have it you can always close the game fully and then reload if any problems arise.

[@jamiegerrish3800]

What an extensive tutorial I'll be keeping an eye out for many more on your channel 👍

[@just_a_napkin]

Thanks sooo much I did it all on master mode and it worked perfectly I was really scared to do it on master mode because of how there is only 2 save files but it worked perfectly!

[@ragnablade5397]

You could make it in normal mode and then in last step load your master mode file to transfert the bow of light to lower the risk

[@hello1184]

Oh. My. Gosh. This was so unnerving knowing that if I died during the run to hyrule castle, it would be annoying for me later. But everything worked, except for that last auto save, I had to run towards the shrine in hateno, then out of hateno, back into hateno, and then back to its shrine to trigger the auto save. Everything is great! Nice video, and I have just now subscribed. Thanks!

[@ElDuende05]

Nice! Congrats on the bow, now go corrupt it :)

[@hello1184]

@@ElDuende05Hey! It’s been five months, and I made a no-death master mode file and just beat Ganon today. Sooooo, I decided to use IST again on my hardcore master mode world to get the bow of light. And: it worked. It was quite a bit more wonky and weird since I had only like 33 slots I had to off set, plus the bow of light didn’t show its duplication on screen, but it worked. I’ve got the bow of light and I’m happy 👍👍👍

[@Lancegold]

Excellent tutorial, I repeated the arrowless offset part more times than necessary because i thought that I was doing something wrong when i saw duped champion abilities. It was just a matter of restart the game and load the autosave

[@a_randomhawaiian8988]

Omg thank you so much this video is actually so helpful and I can’t wait for more vids

[@georgeromero2373]

one thing i can`t understand, is that on 1:15 and 5:36 you show that you have an empty inventory slot in your bow stash to receive the bow of light. but then later when you go to steal the bow of light after saying that you should alter your inventory as little as possible, at 6:22 there is a brand new royal bow next to the bow of light. when did it get there and why do you have it if the inventory slot was supposed to be kept empty.

[@Joe_334]

I like how this leads into Link waking up naked in the Shrine of Awakening. The whole glitch process is brilliant considering it leads up to a new game plus, by dropping all equipment and starting over(from what it looks like).

[@vitofolgado5202]

[@stupidshyeep]

Worked for me 12-13-22 patch 1.6.0 Thank You El Duende Do EXACTLY as prescribed. Take your time. Took me about an hour or so. I watched and copied exactly as shown. For arrowless glitch offset it helped me to press whistle and A at the Same Time. For master mode I reloaded my auto save that had me in the shop for the offset arrowless glitch. 1. Perform glitch 2. Drop all items 3. Quit to main menu and load master mode file/start new game 4. Trigger an auto save (mine occurred outside of the shrine) 5. Close game completely and restart game 6. Load auto save and check inventory. Bow should be there. If satisfied NOW manual save Thank you again!

Im struggling to understand. I only have 1 save file, which is my main one (The one in which I want the bow) . If I do this glitch will the bow appear on my Main file? Or is it meant to appear on the master mode save file?

[@elihebert7948]

Here is one MAJOR tip for anyone struggling. Just dont give up, this took me over 7 attempts to finally do it I just didnt give up and eventually got it.

[@amadeus217]

Did everything right until dark beast ganon. I got the BoL, and then it disappeared (probably because I went off my horse to drop everything, and it glitched for some reason, idk). At first, I thought the BoL was merged with my savage Lynel Bow as a visual bug, so I dropped everything except that said bow. After I loaded the sanctum autosave, there was no BoL and no other stuff. This took me 2 hours, btw. Thankfully, I loaded the manual save, and everything was there. I'm planning to do this later after my doctors appointment, I lost a lot of progress but never back down, never give up. I will finish this!! Update: I've done it. Let's goooo very good tutorial thank you

[@thetophatpig2612]

Something that i was confused/scared of was whether teleporting to shrines or towers to get to and leave the Ganon fight faster was safe, but i did it and it didn't mess anything up for me. Let me know if I just got lucky, saw the help down here and wanted to contribute. It was terrifying to do this for me since weapon durability transfer is pretty much the only glitch I've done. Besides some duplication. I loved this indepth tutorial and would have never done it without it. Keep up the good work.

[@ElDuende05]

That’s a brace first start to BotW glitching. Most people start with windbombs or weapon desync shenanigans. You were safe to teleport for this, incidentally.

[@DLDLDLDLDLDLD]

Thanks for this, easy and straight forward - took me roughly an hour, similar to the comments of others. Thanks!

[@gameboy9480]

First off, great guides, not just this one, all of your guides are great, they have helped me understand this game even more (and I can now do consistent 100% Pitioss Runs in FFXV, thanks a ton for that) but I think I'm doing something wrong, however I'm not sure what. Whenever I get to Dark Beast Ganon, the Bow of Light refuses to appear in my inventory, I've tried getting the bow, getting of my horse and then pausing, and pausing when I get the bow, when I pause when I get the bow, only the Bow of Light appears in my inventory, so I equipped it, unpaused, and paused again, only my other bows were in my Inventory, but Link had the Bow of Light equipped, after eating and dropping everything needed, I reloaded the Sanctum autosave and Link didn't have the Bow of Light equipped anymore. The Bow of Light never appeared alongside my other bows like in the video though, I have an empty bow slot so I don't think that's the problem, I changed my inventory in the Calamity Ganon fight for Weapons, Shields, Bows, Arrows and food, but that's it, any idea what I'm doing wrong? Edit: nvm I just did it again, I didn't realise I could go to the right of my key items tab to find more inventory tabs, which meant that if I had just hit right on the right joystick I would have seen it, followed the rest of the steps with no problem and now finally own the Bow of Light, after over 2000 hours and just in time for Tears of the Kingdom, thanks a ton man

[@IDoKnow.]

Ty for the tutorial it helped a lot to 100% the game

[@lexmolasko]

Thank you! The fact that you can do it without master mode is so cool I will give this video a like!😀👋

[@simplifyyy510]

An important thing to note is that you cannot die during the Calamity Ganon fight. It happened to me and I ended up with not duplicated, but triplicated arrow stacks, key items and armour. Luckily I knew what to do so I closed the game and reloaded the hard save I had made in Link's house in order to deactivate the glitch and get all of my stuff back.

[@essere_lol6107]

omg after 30 minutes of tries for the last part, i finally got it. too bad i counted wrong the offset slots so now i have 8 champion abilities, but at least i have the bow of light :)))))) edit: nvm after closing and opening again the game it got fixed, thanks again for this awsome guide

[@QwertyWirt]

Just asking but what happens when you pick up the bow of light during the final fight after you do this? Will there be two how of lights, or will it disappear altogether?

[@ElDuende05]

You’ll actually end up with three copies during the fight, though after reloading you’ll go back to whatever you had prior to the fight, assuming you don’t have additional glitches active.

[@QwertyWirt]

Ohh ok. Just wanted to know in case I do this glitch and wanted to fight Ganon again
