The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D Walkthrough
Steer through Link's exploits in Hyrule. Our The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D Walkthrough provides item locations, boss tips, and how to complete the adventure.
Item Descriptions
The kingdom of Hyrule is a big place, and, as such, there's a lot of stuff to be had, bought, found, caught and taken here. This handy reference guide will act as your mini-Farmer's Almanac and provide you with the insights and wisdom of knowing what's what and how to use it. Item knowledge is essential to any hardy traveler who would uncover all of Hyrule's secrets, so now's the time to bone up on all that info! Get crackin'!
Deku Shield
This shield is available to the young Link practically from the get-go. After a little rummaging, Link can scare up enough Rupees to buy this from the Kokiri Village merchant. While the Deku Shield is sturdy enough, it will disintegrate after shielding Link from too many fire attacks.
Empty Bottles
As Link will discover, bottles can be used for carrying all sorts of things. There are four bottles in the game, and they can be found in Kakariko Village, Lon Lon Ranch, Lake Hylia, and the Market. They can save Link's tiny butt if filled with the right stuff.
Gold Scale
While fishing at Lake Hylia, if the adult Link beats the all-time record for snaring the biggest Lunker, he will be awarded the coveted Gold Scale. This scale lets Link dive even deeper than the Silver Scale.
Golden Gauntlets
Possessed of even greater strength than the Silver Gauntlets, the Golden Gauntlets give you even more lifting power. Concealed in Ganon's Castle, it's apparent that Link must head straight into the lion's den to gain possession of these magical wonders.
Goron Bracelet
After giving Darunia, the Goron leader, a small sampling of his virtuoso skills, the big galoot in turn gives Link the Goron Bracelet. The bracelet grants Link great strength, and as a result, Link can uproot heavy bomb flowers and even some rocks.
Goron Tunic
Found seven years later in the Goron City, Link obtains the Goron tunic from Darunia's son, interestingly named Link as well. Honored to be in the original Link's presence, Darunia's son gives Link the tunic, which provides him with the protection necessary to withstand Death Mountain Crater's extreme heat. Without it, Link wouldn't last longer than a minute. Remember to equip it when you go to the Crater.
Hover Boots
Found in the Shadow Temple, the Hover Boots are fairly self-explanatory. These boots give Link considerably more hang-time than he normally experiences after a timely jump. However, there is little traction to be found with these boots, so it pays to be cautious while using them.
Hylian Shield
Available for purchase at the Bazaar in Kakariko Village, Link must buy this shield at some point. Although it's too heavy for him to wield as a child, the younger Link can still carry it on his back, providing limited protection should his Deku Shield burn up. The older Link can carry it like the younger Link carries the Deku Shield. Made of metal, the Hylian Shield is indestructible.
Iron Boots
Used in conjunction with the Zora Tunic, the Iron Boots let Link stay at the bottom of any watery area. The additional weight keeps him glued to the ocean floor, where he would normally float away. Useful in windy areas as well, Link is not capable of running with these shoes on.
Mirror Shield
Found in the Spirit Temple, the Mirror Shield is absolutely crucial to Link's success in this difficult level. Capable of reflecting sunlight, spells, and energy attacks, the Mirror Shield is integral to completing Link's objectives in this Temple.
Silver Gauntlets
These Silver Gauntlets impart a super-human strength to whomever wears them. Hidden in the Spirit Temple, these gloves will come in handy as Link attempts to complete his quest.
Silver Scale
If Link can beat the Zora's challenge, he will receive the Silver Scale - a handsome accessory that lets Link dive deeper than usual.
Zora Tunic
In the Ice Cavern, you'll soon discover that King Zora has been imprisoned in a block of Red Ice. Once you obtain the appropriate material for thawing him out, you'll be given the Zora Tunic, made entirely of fish gills. Once equipped, you can remain underwater indefinitely without drowning.

Why is it that I'm going through this game step by step, doing what you're telling me to, but you're still at a completely different part than I am. Where the hell am I?
One More tip, Use Nerus love spell only in the fight with Gannon, and you won't lose a lot of hearts, this can be done twice, and speaking of hearts, I have been able to obtain all but 3!
a little tip for first time players, when you reach Gannons castle, remove the spell on the Shadow sage first, but get the gold gauntlets before finishing that , and do all the others, saving the Fire stage for last!
"After finding all the keys and whatnot" is an incredible example of how you don't write a walkthrough. Usually, even a vague level of detail is required. Talk about half-assed, Gamespot.
I played this on my Nintendo 64. It's the first game I ever completed - 100% of everything. I haven't had access to my original game for several years, and I am surprised at how much I remembered! I finally got stumped when I tried to get to Zora Fountain, so looked for a walkthrough. This one is pretty good - points me in the right direction without a lot of detail. This lets me figure out the challenges for myself. For those of you needing more detailed help, I agree that GameFAQS is a good bet. It's no fun when you are stumped and frustrated, so go get help when you need it, and enjoy the game!
When I first played was on 3ds, and had a hard time defeating the anemone, then after I finally did it, The water temple was tricky, I did pretty good with some of the mini games, like gettng the large quiver of 40 arrows,, same for deku seeds, the large bomb bag, and 9 out of 10 Poes, I found almost all of the fairy fountains, but never could beat the grave keeper a second time to get the prize for that one!
The main problem I have with this game is knowing where to go next, so this walkthrough is totally ok with me :)
Kocelot, walkthroughs do sometimes give you those kind of pointers, but generally walkthroughs are designed for people (like me) who walk around aimlessly sometimes not realizing where to go, as maybe I wasn't paying attention or went back to the game after not playing for a while and forgetting where I was. I'd suggest looking at GameFAQS, as usually people will create a separate walkthrough that's just for boss battles, skulltula locations, etc. That's probably your best bet!
why is every1 saying this is a good walkthrough? its just telling you which direction to go. no tips! also, i need help on getting past the skull soldiers with the shields. ive tried 3 times back and forth. they do too much damage! ;-; i referred to this walkthrough, and nothing!
A really good walkthrough can be found on zeldadungeon.net. It includes every heart piece and gold skulltula location, plus so much more.
@almossbb Yeah, when you hear that particular squeaky sound you know they are nearby, but there's some that you don't hear the sound, these ones are the tricky ones to find, I remember the location of some but not all of them.
As a Oot veteran I remember most things from when i played the original, I just don`t remember where is all that damned golden skulltulas. XD
This is a good walkthrough, and actually my first time looking for a walkthrough for any game lol ? i usually finish the games on my own but in this game i got lost alot :P.
Version 1.0 (2.0?) of this Guide is here. This is a republication of our 1998 The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Game Guide. Big thanks to the original author James Mielke of Q Entertainment.
