Twilight Princess Cave of Ordeals 100% IL in

Getting down to sub-21 took quite a bit of effort, so I didn't expect to get it by such a wide margin! Very happy with this run. The first 30 floors were generally fine but unremarkable, but the last 20 were mostly very good. I got to start the last 10 with Great Spin, which made floors 42 and 43 faster, and I also saved some time on floor 49 with a bomb arrow strat I came up with today. (It didn't quite go as planned, but I think it still saved time over what I'd been doing.)

God i love watching high level zelda gameplay, its so cool seeing how people use the many different items in each game during combat.

[@PrincessZelda_is_My_Side_Chick]

I really REALLY hope we actually get some of these enemies in Tears of the Kingdom (Especially Poes, ReDeads, Darknuts!!) Fighting the same Bokoblins, Lizalfos, Moblins and Wizzrobes in every province over and over again got stale really quickly. The enemy variety in Breath of the Wild was super weak and one of the worst things about the game

Lol

[@MonochromaticPrism]

So, I've got some good new and some bad news.

[@link1183]

sick run GG also nice strat with getting the 60 poe souls text on the last poe, funny little optimisation lol

[@bewildebeest]

Yep, had to make up for not bothering to clear blue and yellow rupee text before attempts

[@danielfox3399]

So this is why we have stamina bars now

[@bewildebeest]

Preeeetty much

[@marielcarey4288]

This game has my favourite depiction of the Great Fairy, though the milfs from oot and botw are more iconic.

[@frankyquilavafireblast895]

Also, I have never seen darknots and airafoces manhandled like that before Heck, I didn’t even know you could use the boomerang on the ladder to stund them early to pull them in with the double clawshot and continuing to shield attack instead of doing the helm splitter

[@floormatgaming]

Insane bro

[@AnchorOfTime]

This guy made it look easy

[@frankyquilavafireblast895]

I looked this up just for the heck of it after watching one of my favorite let’s plays of this game. Wonder if the HD version could be better for optimizing since you have access to instant transformation via the gamepad and the stupid ruppee text box doesn’t show up every time you reset.

[@DFC1154]

OMFG SO I DIED IN THE LAST FUCKING ENEMY?? MAN......

[@london2753]

Beest is the best ore merchant I’ve ever seen

[@Skyreon]

I wonder if we'll ever figure out what the world record is.

[@bewildebeest]

@Skyreon it's unknown

[@tgshotoftcr2256]

18:05 LIKE, HOW every time I enter this room I lose so many hearts and get frozen so many times. GG.

[@bewildebeest]

That's one of the toughest floors for sure. Magic Armor and knowing where the chilfos are both help, as you can see in my improved run of this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIXTm5ubiNGsh5o

[@anth_lja3648]

GG time save for this room ( 20:22 )

[@marielcarey4288]

8:35 these things legit terrified me when I was young

[@tgshotoftcr2256]

What terrifies me to this day are the Ice Spears. (Chilfos, I guess?) Those things remind me of Aimbot Skeletons from Minecraft and it's not even funny. 🙃

[@silasteacher]

There are some regular hearts and a 200 rupee coin buried underground

[@selassieaspen9940]

Wait so did they nerfed the Wii great Spin attack?

[@bewildebeest]

I've never played the Wii version, but as far as I know, Great Spin does the same damage on Wii and on GC. I've heard it's harder to chain spin attacks on Wii, though.

[@MissingScrew27]

why do you pick up the rupees ?

[@bewildebeest]

Just for practice for full game 100% runs where I need to get 800 or more rupees over the course of the cave. Rupees aren't needed for this IL. I theoretically could have saved time on the blue and yellow rupee text boxes by clearing them before starting the run, but it would be tedious to do that before every single attempt. It wouldn't have been possible to simply avoid all rupees for the entire cave.

[@MissingScrew27]

@@bewildebeest good fighting skills tho
