Hey guys. I'm sure you've all heard of the classic 3 heart challenge right? The quest to complete a Zelda game (most commonly OoT) without picking up any heart containers. Well I started OoT again yesterday with intention of doing the 3 heart challenge because I've never done it before. But I know other people put more limitations on than just limited health. For example, you can only have one bottle (the one containing Ruto's letter) and it must remain empty, or that as an adult you can only use the broken Goron's knife as a weapon. Anywho, I decided to do a little bit of research on the matter and I found this.

The Ocarina of Time Uber Challenge!

The rules look seriously hardcore. Looks like I'm going to need to look at the walkthrough at some bits too... But this is my new challenge, I'm going to try and beat it with only using the route guide and the restrictions guide. Unless of course it's obvious you need to use some sort of giant glitch to get past.

Now I ask you, have you ever attempted a 3 heart challenge? Have you ever attempted the uber challenge? Now you've seen this do you think you'll give it a go?

Discuss.

I've actually never heard of the three-heart challenge xD; I'm a bit of a sadist when it comes to these games (throwing Link off cliffs for no particular reason, etc), so I'm a pro at losing hearts, but it sounds like a fun challenge.

The uber challenge, on the other hand, sounded unbelievable at first o_o I skimmed the beginning of the guide just to see how someone could pull off certain things, and all of the tricks listed sound so crazy that I want to try them right now! XD I'll have to attempt both of these challenges once school is over.

I also have not heard of the three heart challenge, it sounds interesting...I will give it a try after I beat the game I am working on now: Chrono Trigger. Though I bet I would die in the challenge...

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do it... Not without the guide at any rate. But even normal way, I've already got the water stone (it's cool, it still says "only one remaining!" I didn't think it would), but I couldn't do the glitch to get into jabu jabu. sad I had to use a fish.

Anyone started it yet?

Hmm...I never heard of it. But I wont start it. It sounds a bit hard. sweatdrop I would probably end up cursing at the Tv screen threating that I would break it if I don't get past one part. rofl

I don't see why you would need the guide, you have played through it before right?

No, he means the guide for the uber challenge. The glitches are the only way to go through the game with the uber restrictions, so he's going to have to consult the guide for them. I'm going to print out the guide at school XDDD

By now, you may be wondering what the Uber Challenge actually is. Truth be
told, it is simply a set of restrictions. Here they are:

*******************************************************************************
UBER CHALLENGE RESTRICTIONS
*******************************************************************************

-3 hearts, no Heart Pieces whatsoever
-Buy Giant's Knife and break it ASAP, and use that at all times (except in the
Graveyard and while fighting Ganon)
-All Medallions
-1 Bottle
-No deaths (death counter at file select must say 000)
-No Iron Boots
-No capacity upgrades
-No Great Fairy gifts except Magic Meter and Din's Fire
-No Gold Skulltula family gifts from 20 or more Gold Skulltulas
-No Goron Bracelet
-No Fire Arrows
-No Lens of Truth
-No Longshot
-No Silver Scale
-No Zora Tunic
-No Gerudo's Card
-No Maps or Compasses
-No Biggoron's Sword
-Cannot use Action Replay, Gameshark, etc.
-Cannot use Crooked Cartridge (touching your game cartridge while playing)
-Cannot use Din's Fire outside the central room of the Water Temple
-Cannot use Megaton Hammer to attack enemies (exception of stunning Volvagia)
-Cannot use Megaton Hammer outside the Fire Temple
-Cannot use Deku Sticks to attack enemies
-Cannot use power crouch stab
-Cannot use bottle except to show Ruto's Letter to King Zora
-Cannot learn any songs except Song of Time, Zelda's Lullaby, and Minuet of

*******************************************************************************
SHIELD RESTRICTIONS
*******************************************************************************

You must burn your Deku Shield ASAP. You may not equip another one. You may not
obtain a Hylian Shield as a child, but you may obtain a Hylian Shield as an
adult. You may only use a Hylian Shield in the Graveyard. Aside from that,
while you have a shield equipped, use it as little as possible and destroy it
quickly. After completing the Spirit Temple, equip a Hylian Shield and let a
Like Like eat it so you can continue without a shield. The optimal locations to
destroy your shield are included in the route, below.

How can you get into the Water Temple without the iron boots? And how can you get beat the Water Temple without the longshot?
