Haven't quite completed Level 3 yet. Magic, just like bombs early on, is a HUGE inconvenience right now. I go to find the room where the boss key. I need to use the wand to get to the chest, and I have... NO MAGIC! So I go get some (luckily I know where to look, time consuming though), come back, get the boss key, have to use the wand a few more times and run out of magic again. Finally I reach the boss door to find... I have to use the wand to get to the boss door, and I have... NO MAGIC!

Is there a better way to get magic then to have to retrace your steps all the way back through Snow Island back to Desert Island where you have to kill several blue leevers to refill your magic? Or do I have to do that every time I run out? (which seems to be all the time)

Here's a hint: EXPLORE THE OVERWORLD! I can tell you right now that you can have up to 20 bombs by the time you get to level 3 and have at least 2 magic upgrades by the time level 3 comes around. Explore the overworld! That's what its there for. If you find there isn't enough magic, then by golly, get some more! LOL Once you acquire the flippers and hammer, you can achieve more bomb ugprades and the last remaining magic upgrades!

Hmmm... perhaps I haven't been doing that. ^_^;

This is the greatest hint for this quest. There are so many things to do on the overworld.

On swamp island I can find the triforce marking indicating a level is nearby but I can't find the level. Please help. Thanks.

[Neppy]

I'll help you out. You have to blow up the big rock that I have circled in pink.



I think that should help you out.

with what type of bombs?

[Teilyr]

Dang. I couldn't even make it to that point.

Seemed like you needed the flippers to access that island... Guess I should keep looking.

with what type of bombs?

Probably regular, as I don't think you can get super bombs yet.

[/M/]

i tried but it didn't work with regular bombs!

[Neppy]

I'm sure you need super bombs, but I can't remember where to get them at. There has to be a shop or something that sells them.

[Teilyr]

With what money, exactly? What little I have I use killing stuff with arrows.

Kidding, of course.. I'll get 50 rupees together somehow.

As for where the super bomb shop is, Happyman posted this in the other topic.

From the starting island where Level 1 is...
- Use the west raft dock and go to a mini-island with octoroks and red trees
- Use the west raft dock (there are 3, use the one on the far left) and hold the right key to go to Desert Island
- Head east (arrows work well against the huge numbers of leevers) to a shop and buy a super bomb (50 rupees)
- Go back west to where you started. This time, head north while staying close to the west coast of the island
- Use the raft dock up here. Hold the left key to avoid the tiny island at first. On the next branch, hold the down key to get to Forest Island
- North of the screen with the triforce symbol, you should see the Level 2 dungeon entrance at the top right. Use your super bomb on the big rock and enter.

Though, I could've sworn that Hero Link just said that level 2 is on swamp island...

Swamp Island is level 4. Snow island is level 2, just to let you know.

[HappyPuppet]

Snow Island is 3, not 2. FOREST Island is 2.

List of levels I've discovered thus far to clear up all confusion:
1 - Town Island
2 - Forest Island
3 - Snow Island
4 - Swamp Island
5 - Waterfall Island
(the rest are just guesses)
6 - No clue
7 - Desert Island?
8 - Death Island?
9 - Isle of the Winds?

Levels 2-5 [and most likely 6-8] require a super bomb each. Go ahead and buy a few when you pass by a shop that sells them is my suggestion.

*returns to fighting Level 5's insanely difficult boss*

And if you really wanna spoil it, the items I know of, highlight to see

1 - Bow, Whistle, Raft sorta
2 - Magic Boomerang, Candle
3 - Wand, Bracelet
4 - Ladder
5 - Hookshot, Flippers
[rest are just guesses again]
6 - No clue, maybe Hammer
7 - Boots probably, maybe Hammer
8 - No clue

[Neppy]

I keep forgetting level 1 is on Town Island.

Here is exactly how they are. Remember though, you do not have to play them in order.

1-Town Island
2-Forest Island
3-Snow Island
4-Swamp Island
5-Waterfall Island
6-Death Island
7-Desert Island
8-Volcano Island
9-Isle of the Winds

Anyways, I think most levels require a super bomb to enter.

Thanks to all for the posts - I will try out all the suggestions. Will let you know how I do.
