Ah. Is "start on the east" just a reference to the fact that the first move is to go right? I feel like that threw me off more than not having that line at all would have.

That's just for the last move you use it. Oh, I see. The Wording is weird.

Fantastic quest so far!

 

So, that riddle in the Southern Shrine, "The Gate of the Dreams shall open when the Four Suns Brighten."  - I see Sun statues all over the place and a torch configuration, but nothing is moving into place near a Sun statue.  What's the deal here, please?

 

EDIT:  Ah, nevermind.  I was pressing up against the statue, trying to put the Sun Key in, and nothing kept happening.  I eventually returned and tried harder, smashing my face into the statue for longer amounts of time.  Took a lot for this guy to actually decide to slide the key in.  WTF.

Yeah, that key only works from the left and right side because of the script used.

I wanted to make the key work in the middle, but after many attempts, i've found out that i simply couldn’t. Mostly, because i cannot make things work properly between two combos, except of the simple shutter. (Not the GB Shutters since for some reason, they don’t work properly in the middle between two combos)

Anyone have any tips on how to beat the level 2 boss?  He feels impossible to beat on "normal" mode.  Already tried seven times. Only gotten to second phase three times.  Dungeon item, bombs, and sword beam does not work on the second phase.  I did start out in hard mode but changed it to normal after playing for a little bit.  

 

I hope bosses in the future get easier assuming I can actually beat the level 2 boss.  Quite ridiculous if I have to go down to easy mode or worse turn off damage from monsters  .....  

 

 I've played hard mode on other zelda games without much of a problem (Ex: Legend of Lana).

You can buy potions in the Goron shop. You can always raise and lower difficulty how ever you want.

I see.  Still struggling on "Normal" Mode. To confirm damage taken from this boss on normal mode:

- Lose one heart when you drown in lava and getting hit by a fire ball

- Half damage if the enemy hits you

 

I just reduced the difficulty down to easy mode, and falling into lava still takes away one heart.  Is this intentional for all difficulties to take away one heart when falling into the lava or is this a bug that you overlooked when changing difficulty?

 

Are you able to have six hearts for this boss?  If so, I need help on finding the last heart piece.  I suspect it is the one on world map which you need to activate a switch to remove the barrior around it.   I don't know how to get to it as the area is surrounded by lava.

Beat the boss at 9:40: https://www.youtube....uPQFcO&index=13

Did you get the heart piece at 7:50? In the Kamaro Grounds? https://www.youtube....uPQFcO&index=10

As for the lava damages, it is scripted that way, so there is no way for me to make the damages compatible with the difficulty settings unfortunately.

[Ether]

I've noticed that lava/fall/the-fucking-sword-from-the-L8-boss/etc damage also isn't affected by your tunic. I'm not a scripter, but that seems like something that definitely could be compatible with if/else then statements.

 

And if the damage from those things is scripted, and the difficulty modifier is tied to Peril Ring items, wouldn't the same be true for those?

I have a reason for that in one of the bonus dungeons where the spikes that do 32 hearts of damage wouldn't one hit you like intended.

Couldn't you make a separate combo that isn't affected by tunic/mode, use that for the bonus dungeon, and let everything else be affected normally?

It's a quest rule. So not that I know of.

If only that was that simple. It's a quest rule unfortunately.
