Title: Alright, so I'm new to TP and..
Post by: CHC on September 01, 2011, 07:59:28 PM
How easy is it to glitch? Easier or harder than Ocarina of Time? (the one I glitch constantly)

Once I beat the game 2 times, once by myself and one 100%, I plan on glitching to beat the game. So, I just want to know how hard it is, so I can choose to use it, or another game as a secondary.

Most of the tricks in TP take a quite a bit of practice, but once you figure them out they're relatively easy. I'd say one of the most difficult things to learn is which timing variation of LJA to use where as it is relatively random. Otherwise, TP isn't necessarily that hard as long as you are willing to practice tricks.

So basically, it's around the same difficulty as Ocarina of Time? Or slightly easier? It seems that way. Considering most Ocarina of Time glitches require practice, others insane precision/timing/luck. Practice is: hours, days, weeks or months?

It depends on what route you want to do. If you want to do the speedrun route (which has BiT and those tricks like skipping zora armor, fishing rod and all those fancy tricks), then that would be the hardest one. If you just want to do some glitches here and there, you can use this as a guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmM6CmY7rxU and then work your way up. This route is pretty easy and and is about the same difficulty level as any% OoT in my opinion.

I plan on working my way up to a speedrun route. That's what I did in Ocarina of Time. It gives you a sort of basis to start off on so you know, in a sense, what to expect.

Thank you for the link, I'll watch as soon as I can.

EDIT: In segment 3, he did a rock sidehop trick. I play Wii (so watching this is so bewildering since it's backwards XD) is that possible on Wii?

Of course it is. You can even do it on the other side of the fence as well. The only important glitches that can't be done on one version or the other is the Map Glitch for the Wii (it works, but requires a different technique), Long Jump Attacks with a boomerang on the Wii (works for everything else though), and Midna Diving on the Gamecube (On the wii you use this to enter Lakebed Temple later in the game than on the Gamecube version).

Oh, and I guess that stupid Cave of Ordeals trick.

Could I get some help here?
I'm playing through the game trying to increase my skill, and trying some different routes. I've played normally to the Master Sword, then I clipped my way to the cannon in Kakariko. When was going to have it repaired that dude wouldn't do it, he said Link must get the cannon there(I'd warped it). So I just have the cannon staying there and haven't tried so much to solve, what probably isn't a dead end.

iirc, you have to access the portals through the map menu.

I've done so, I've warped the cannon the Lake Hylia. And when I talk to Fyer and chose special-repairs he doesn't see any cannon. Also the guy who gives you the note to Fyer wasn't uppon the tower. I don't recall that you have to talk to Telma and the bar people(which I currently haven't done) to triggers progress.

See the last paragraph of: http://www.zeldaspeedruns.com/tp/majorsb/early-city-in-the-sky

It sounds like you have to go through Midna's Desperate Hour, so you may need to start your file over.

Yeah, you can only do CitS early after a certain point (I believe it's after you've shown Fyer the memo to go to the desert and you take the canon there at least once). If you do it any earlier, you'll lose the ability to finish your game.
