Commencing a LA minimalist zero-death run for Nintendoer's LoZ Challenge Chalice! The rules are simple: I must complete the game and get the perfect ending without any unnecessary items, including the Color Dungeon tunics, boomerang, level two sword, etc. I won't offer a complete log, but I'll add periodic updates in the comments of this post upon clearing every dungeon.

  • Here's number seven. No matter how many times I play this game, I can never complete Eagle's Tower or the upcoming Turtle Rock without confusion and backtracking. Replay value!

  • Fred, I had an idea for a challenge for you. Do you have Majora's Mask 3D?

  • Yes, I've got MM3D. What kind of challenge is it? Easy for you, but I've always had trouble in Turtle Rock. The constantly respawning minibosses don't help my constant wandering and backtracking... The boss is a pushover, though.

  • Swordless one-bottle run, eh? Sounds fun! A swordless run is something I've been thinking about since ND did it a while back. One bottle will bring a new need for speed transporting Zora Eggs and trading with Gibdos... I like it!

  • I want to point out that my swordless run was also a minimalist run as well; meaning I had a single bottle the whole time.

  • That's exactly why I said one Bottle. :P

  • And with that, I'm ready for the final boss! @Nintendoer: Heheh, I know. I'm not hardcore enough to attempt a swordless minimalist run though. Heck, I don't know if I could pull a minimalist MM3D run at all. Twinmold really takes a lot out of you...

  • Twinmold doesn't even make use of a sword. Light Arrows, Giant's Mask. Boom.

  • I wasn't refering to the lack of sword, I was refering to the sheer amount of damage he deals. With three hearts and only one bottle of milk on a minimalist run, I don't think I could handle him. I went through at least three bottles on my 3-heart run...

  • The Eagle boss has WAY to much HP.

  • Final boss defeated! Following will be proof of zero deaths and a minimalist inventory once I reload the file. (Like an 1d10t I started climbing the stairs before catching the screenshot evidence and now can't pause.)

  • Perfect ending attained, death counter to follow.

  • Zero deaths on the counter, inventory screen to follow.

  • No boomerang, no Lens, no tunics or heart pieces, No Secret Medicine or capacity upgrades, either, though you'll have to take my word for it that I didn't get tham and scrub my inventory of the evidence.

  • Conglaturnations!! Ya did it!! I didn't doubt ya at all.... Totally... Maybe....

  • Finally, proof of no Restore Points. I haven't used them since my first run, and can't for the life of me remember why I made one last May. I didn't even do a playthrough in May. That wraps up this run. Thanks for reading, I know it wasn't interesting.
