INSIDE the water temple (Per viewer request)


Sorry for my previous post. I went on an one babbling bout the water temples and this and that. Then it hit me that I was dead tired so I just went to bed on a cliff hanger. So here it comes per user request...here are things to expect INSIDE the water temple

1. Blog creatures of the "Hit and Multiply" form
Multiplicative blobs are not uncommon. They come in a dozen colors and take an hour each to beat. Usually you cant ignore them because defeating them is the main means of getting the key to goto the next room that just so happens to be 400 feet in the air above you...You hit it, it becomes 2 blob guys, they become 4, they become 8 and so on....How can you get up there you might ask? Well, that comes to water changing puzzles.

Link to the past -> Gate opening/closing puzzles to move levers to open doors
Ocarina of time -> Level changing puzzles (Change the level of the water to get to the next are of the temple)
Wind Waker -> Ridiculous all kinds of water puzzles with 2d effects...sweet
Twilight Princess -> Water DIVERTING puzzles...move the water all over the place to move the wheels and get the water powered machinery in the temple working so that the platforms move so you can access new levels.

Typically as in any Zelda game, the BIG BOSS door will stare you in the face the second you walk in the door. It laughs at you and cackles because you need whatever item is stored deep within the chasms of the temple to get to it. A good rule of thumb is that half of each temple is beaten by using the item obtained within it. Anyways back to business

3. Platforms, bridges, and items to stand on of any sort seem to be detachable or rocking back and forth. A very common thing to have to do is to move standing items around such as bridges, or rocks and so forth. If these items are movable, you will most likely have to use the water level to divert them from one place to another in order to obtain access

SO here for your viewing pleasure is an exert from the Zelda Twlight Princess water temple.
