I would reccomend you set the print setup right and left margins to .25", then it will print right. v 1.1- updated faulty e-mail and the author's name --------------- 1.0 The Story --------------- Link is leaving Hyrule to find a dear friend he needed to part with in order to save the world. (Does anyone else know who it is?) His trip is interrupted by the Skull Kid and his two fairy friends. At the time the Skull Kid is possesed by Majora's Mask, causing him to commit more than his usual pranks. He knocks Link off of Epona and steals the Ocarina of Time, riding off and leading Link on a not so merry chase. At this point you will have control, however there is only one way to go. When you meet the Skull Kid again he tauntsLink and turns him into a Deku Scrub as a means of slowing him down. You will have control again and need to make your way accrossthe platforms with Deku flowers on them. Stand directly over the flower, look atthe A button's command and make sure it says burrow, press and HOLD A untill a yellow cloud of pollen appears, position yourself so the camera is pointing the way you want to go,then release A. Eventually you will end up inside of the Clock Tower of Clock Town. Talk to the Happy Mask Man (that guy has issues) to learn what to do next. -------------------------------------- 1.1 How to Survive the Impending Doom -------------------------------------- In this section I will cover all the moves for Link's alter egos and the hidden songs that will realllly help you out. Deku Link ========= Deku Link is the first transformation of Link; since you will be stuck with him for at least three game days, you'd better know what to do with him. * Pressing A preforms a spinning attack that you can control the direction of. This is a way better attack than the roll attack Link has, the spin is more like a weaker version of the Koriki sword's spin attack. *By burrowing into a Deku flower you can lauch yourself up on flower propellers for a short period of time. The yellow Deku flowers give you more height and distance than the normal pink ones. If you kill a Mad Scrub a Deku flower usually appears. You can kill Mad Scrubs with a Deku Nut bomb. (press B while in air) * After visiting the Great Fairy the first time and gaining magic, you can shoot bubbles using B. * Deku Link can literally skip accross water, as you hop the number of hops remaining will be displayed at A button. You can only hop a short distance, but the last hop is an extra long twirl. * Deku Link's instrument are the Deku Pipes, only as Deku Link can you properly play the Sonota of Awakening. * Deku Link has the speed of the Bunny Hood Goron Link ========== Goron Link's Mask can be attained after aquiring the Lens of Truth and freeing Darmani's soul. As the Goron you are known to all the Gorons as Darmani, their lost warrior. They truly believe you are Darmani, so expect them to act accordingly. * While holding A, Goron Link can curl into a ball, pushing the control stick causes you to spin. Depending on your surface you will eventually pick up enough speed to to have spikes come out of your body. This causes damage to any enemy you hit, but also uses magic up quickly. * Press B to preform a powerfull punch, well timed pressing will cause Link to execute 3 punches in sucession, ending with a butt thrust. Goron Link's punches are extremely powerfull, you can do many things with it that originally you would not be able to. * While curled press and hold A, then press B to cause Link to launch himself up into the air and fall like a, well, rock. * Goron Link has great traction, but a puny fall distance and he can't swim. To minimize the damage from a fall, push forward on the control stick and curl before hitting the ground. Don't be disappointed if it doesn't work, the timing is very difficult. * Goron Link has an immunity to lava! You can walk through most without a scratch! * Don't expect to win any marathons, except maybe the Goron Races, Goron Link is SLOW. If you have Ocarina of Time his speed is that of Link with the iron boots. * Goron Link's speciality are a set of drums, only as Goron Link can you lull Gorons to sleep Zora Link ========= Once you encounter poor Mikau and heal his soul the Zora Mask will be yeilded. * Press A while in water to swim like a dolphin. Try to avoid sharp turns as this will put you into a terminal spin. * Press B while swiming to walk on the bottom of the sea, press it again to surface. * While walking press A to engage in a series of karate chops. DO NOT try of engage any enemy of less than waist height with this attack, your blows go right over their heads and it leaves you open for attack. (Once I got killed by a Golden Skullatulla this way!) * The Boomarang may not be with us any longer, but Zora Link's fins are. By pressing and holdingB above water Zora Link will shoot his fins from his arms. The fins will act like the Boomerang, retrieving items from vanquished enemies. If you move while the fins are on their trajectory, their path will change. * By pressing B and R at the same time you can preform Zora Link's electricity sheild attack, while swimming simply press R. Be very careful, it drains magic like our van drains gas! The Electricity sheild can be used while in a Like Like. * Zora Link is suceptible to fire and ice attacks. * Zora Link jams on a gitaur, only as Zora Link can you strum the chords to New Wave Bossa Nova as compellingly * Zora Link is the same speed as normal Link Ocarina Melodies ================ There are three very special melodies that can be played on the Ocarina, one is old, the other two affect the flow of time. The Inverted Song of Time is used to slow the flow of time to less than half of the regular speed, it's melody is the Song of Time played backwards. Get out your pen and paper and write the Song forwards, now reverse the order. This melody is essential for completing dungeons or completing a particuarly difficult timed task, such as catching all the Bombers. To return the flow of time to normal just play the Song again. Another important song is the Song of Double TIme. This Song will automatically warp you to the nearest 6:00, either PM or AM. Be careful, as you cannot reverse it and any events that would have happened will happen; for an example do not try to speed the time flow during the Romani alien event, it will not work, I know. The song is right, right, A, A, down, down. The last hidden song was in the Ocarina of Time, its the Scarecrow's Song. To start it you need to find the scarecrow in either the item shop or Observatory basement then play a song for either one of them. They will offer to "teach" you the above two songs, but they'll only give you a substantial hint. For each cycle of days you need to reteach the song to them, I would suggest writing down your favorite song so you won't forget it. Bomber's Notebook ================= In order to complete certain Mask events you will need to keep all the people and times straight. Once you've talked with a person whom an event revolves around they will be entered in the notebook. When an important converstation takes place or you receive a Mask or item a icon will be added. Once you've completed an event a bage will be added to the far right hand side of the page. More will be covered in the Bombers Unite section of the walkthrough. Additional Hints ================ To save your pogress you either need to play the Song of Time or interrupt your game at an activated owl statue. To activate an owl statue you just need to hit it with your sword, therefore there is no way to save the game before changing back from a Deku Scrub and recovering the Ocarina of Time. When interrupting your game once you continue your game all the saved data will be forgotten back to the last time you played the Song of TIme, so don't save, restart, continue playing, make a mistake, and turn the system off. You will be taken back to the last time you played the Song of Time. Stop at the bank before restarting the cycle, all the rupees you earned will be lost if you don't deposit them in the bank. The bankman marks you with time traveling ink, he will always be able to tell who you are. All the other items such as arrows, bombs,and Deku sticks will be lost. Use the Song of Soaring whenever possible. It will prevent you from wasting time walking around or even riding around. Sometimes you will need to defeat a boss again in order to trigger certain events,such as bringing spring to the Gorons' area. To do this just reenter the dungeon and step onto the owl pad that appears at the very beginning of each dungeon. ================== 2.0 The Characters ================== Friends ======= In this game you will have a great deal of help from certain characters, only some will be listed here, so you will have to decide for yourself on the others you meet. * The Great Fairy is one of the greatest helps in the game. She will give you many gifts for reuniting all of her fairies scattered through the dungeons. * The Scrub Salesmen will funrnish you with items you need thorughout the game, they're also important in the trading sequences. * The Bombers will help you in the first cycle of days by allowing you to trade with the Clock Town Deku Scrub Salesman for his flower, it will later allow you to reach the top of the Clock Tower. After changing back to Link they will give you the Bomber's Notebook. HINT: When popping the balloon the second time to get the notebook, do it as Deku Link, then change back into regular Link. Jim won't know the difference and then you don't have to wait to get the Hero's Bow. * The Curiosity Shop Man (aka the item shop keeper) will sell you back any item stolen by the buzzard in Termina Feild. Sometimes he will steal your sword, shield, or bottles. Just go back to the Curisosity Shop while its open and buy back your stuff. * Romani is Malon's alternate in the Clock Town universe, the Skull Kid hid Epona on the ranch, contrary to what you are led to believe. To get Epona you must be a cerified Goron Powder Keg carrier. Blow up the boulder blocking the Ranch's entrance on days one or two, talk to Romani and agree to do the course. You will be doing the course on Epona! If you beat the time she will reteach you Epona's Song, after this you will be able to call Epona wether or not you have completed the course. * Contrary to their role in the Ocarina of Time the hags Koume and Kotake will assist you by making potions (Koume) or giving you a boat tour. (Kotake) Maybe in return you can do something for them... * The possesed man in both of the Skullatulla houses will give you a prize if you free him of the spider's curse. * Tingle the "fairy" will sell you maps if you shoot him down from his red balloon, Tingle is actually a person and his father runs the photograph contest in the Tour Hut. Foes ==== Some of the characters listed here will not really be enemies, but simply unpleasant people or creatures you have to deal with. Bosses and Strategies for beating them are also listed here. * Gerudo Pirates are the lovely female pirates who frequent the Great Bay Area, they are known for their great skill and speed in swordplay. They are not truly evil, only following their nature. Being very protective of their territory they will fiercely attack any intruder, two or three good slashes with the gilded sword should finish them. * Geckos are the mini-bosses in several dungeons, however they are possesd frogs that once belonged to Don Gero's band before being drafted to protect the evil Masks inhabiting the spirits of the Temples. To free them defeat the Gecko and then talk to the frog that appears using the Don Gero's Mask. * The Gorman brothers are truly sleazy characters who you should milk for all they're worth. First beat them at their own game of horseback riding to receive the Garo Mask. Then take them on after the alien invasion sequence, when Cremia asks you to escort her along Milk Road. Defeating them earns again earns Romani's Mask! * The Garo Warriors are not at all evil, they are just wandering ninja souls with a fierce sense of pride. Use Z targeting and your sheild to gaurd against their speed and agility. Then swoop in and attack when their gaurd is down. After defeating them, they would rather commit suicide than live in shame so watch for their final attack of an explosion. If you wear the Garo's Mask in certain areas a Garo will challange you to a duel, therefore when they lose they will only give up information and not their half life. * Odolwa is the Mask who possessed the first Gaurdian. He will call locusts, scarabs, fire, and stone blocks to help him defeat you. At all costs stay away from him when he is taunting you with his sword! Defeating the scarabs yeilds 3 hearts apiece. The locusts can be a major problem but just tough it out untill Odolwa calls a ring of fire. At any time while the summons are going on his gaurd is down and he is unable to attack you with his sword. While he taunts you use arrows to bring down this deity. Once you defeat him his Mask is yeilded and you see an awesome cinima scene. * The second boss is Ghot, the mechanical Mask that possesed Snowhead's Gaurdian. Defeating him is easy as long as you are very apt at contol of Goron Link while he is rolling. You must chase Ghot through a circular track and attack him with your spikes. When you run out of magic power just run over the jars scattered around the track. All the time you must avoid the boulders and bombs he throws out. If you fall too far behind he will shoot electricity at you from afar. The best thing to do is try to ride UNDERNEATH Ghot, you will damage him, but he won't damage you. When he puts on the extra burst of speed at each of the new stage he'll loose you for a short period of time. Keep it up and evenually Ghot will fall. (IF you like racing games, this boss is FUN!) * Gyrorg is the hardest of the Temple bosses. He inflicts a lot of damage and he's impossible to doge and hard to attack. You need to use double hit attacks, the first hit stuns and then the second hit damages. You can try to attack from the podium as Link by using arrows. From the tank's bottom you have a better chance of hitting him with Zora Link's boomerang attack. Four of these combo attacks will kill Gyrorg but hitting him is so hard and he deals so much damage that this battle will be a long hard one. My suggestion is to use Zora Link's Barrier attack and try to ram his eye, this takes great skill in swimming, but is really fun. If you do take this route pack quite a few faries cause you'll need em. Magic pots are scattered throughout the arena. It's a good idea to recover all the faries from this Temple and get the Great Fairy's gift of extra defense. (Like in Ocarina of Time) Defeating him is probably one of the most rewarding events in the game. (However using the second strategy I found this battle very similar to Ghot's.) * The battle with Twinmold is weird. First, you need to change your strategy signifigantly. You need to choose wether or not to use the Giant's Mask. If you don't, the feild is HUGE as is Twinmold! I would suggest atacking using the Giant's Mask to equalize yourself with the scale of the feild. Twinmold is a nice reprive from Gyrorg as all it does is jump in and out of the sand. The hardest part is getting close enough to do the damage! The only problem is that the Giant's Mask uses up one point of magic per second, so pack a bunch of green potions and one fairy. Again you might want to claim the Great Fairy's gift, the Great Fairy Sword, before taking Twinmold on. YOu will need to target its head and tail, as Giant Link you can't Z target so you need to be accurate. Hopefully it won't take to long to dispatch the two mutant centipedes and then you can claim the final dungeon's Mask. (Of course, to keep the magic meter full you may want to make a trip to the Milk Bar...) Neutral Characters ================== There are very few characters who are neither good nor bad but here are a few. Most of the characters not listed will be in the Bombers Unite section of this guide. * Don Gero's frog choir is a group of creatures you must assemble in order to claim a heart piece, for two you must kill two of the sub boss Geckos. For another two you must simply seek them out. They are neither good nor bad, being only animals. * The Sword Shop's owner is a little sleazy, but fair, he will upgrade your sword temporarily to the Razor Sword, and the Razor Sword permanantly to the Gilded Sword, for only a small fee and the leftover gold dust. ---------------------------- 3.0 The Quick and Dirty Path ---------------------------- This is a very quick and unspecific walkthrough for the game of Majora's Mask. The Dungeon puzzles will not be solved and faries will not be revealed. In another version of the guide I PROMISE I will take the time to create an entire Dungeon guide, but for now this will have to do. Be warned this is the VERY least you have to do.

You will need ten Masks to go beyond this point. When you have all four deity Masks go to the Clock Tower on midnight of the final day. What happens after that I will not reveal in this section. If you feel you MUST know, find the Shooting for the Stars section. ----------------- 4.0 Bombers Unite ----------------- The Bombers Unite section of this walkthrough contains all the Bombers Notebook quests, you probably should complete at least one other Mask event to have all the Masks you need. 4.1 A Love Story ================ This is the Anju-Kafei storyline, one of the major stories in the game. Who you'll help: - Anju - Kafei - Curiosity Shop Man - Madame Aroma* - Postman* * These two are strictly optional and you don't have to complete them in order to complete the Anju-Kafei storyline, but an item you get within the story enables you to do part of their good deeds. Both Madame Aroma, and the Postman will be covered again fully later on. Be sure you do NOT foil Sakon's theft of the package from the Old Lady at the Bomb Shop. Make sure you get the Pendant of Memories to Anju on time. Day One +++++++ 10-3pm Get the Kafei Mask from Madame Aroma at the Mayor's House 1:30-3:30pm Go to the Stock Pot Inn and tell Anju you have a reservation, receive Room Key. 2-7:30pm Talk to Anju while wearing the Kafei Mask. Promise to meet her in the kitchen at 11:30pm 11:30-5pm Meet with Anju in the kitchen of the Stock Pot Inn. Get the letter to Kafei 12-6am Put the letter in in one of the Mailboxes Day Two +++++++ 6-9am Put the letter to Kafei in one of the Mailboxes (if you haven't already) 3:30-10pm Talk to Kafei in the Curiosity Shop's Back Room.

Help him steal the Sun Mask Back. 1am-6pm Meet Kaefei and Anju in the Employees Only room in the Stock Pot Inn. Receive the couple's Mask. This scence is one of the happiest in the game so be sure to watch it carefully. 4.2 Home, Home on the Romani ============================ Who you'll help: -Romani -Cremia -Grog Even though the Gorman Brothers Live in the Romani Area, I will cover them in a seperate area. Day One +++++++ Any time Purchase a Powder Keg and blow up the rocks at Milk Road before 12pm 6am-6pm Agree to help Romani with her archery, you will learn Epona's song and earn use of Epona. Promise to help her defend her farm against "Them" later on that day 2-5am Keep "Them" from the barn by shooting them, they will try to sneak around back of the barn as well as from the front. A good way to tell where an alien is will be looking for lens flares, they show through the barn and that will give them away. DO NOT PLAY THE SONG OF DOUBLE TIME! It will not work and just before you warp you will see the lens flares that mark an alien all converge on the barn. Day Two +++++++ Any time Talk to Cremia, she will ask you for help when she makes her run to Clock before Town. She's having trouble with some theives. 6pm 6pm Meet Cremia at the barn and ride with her. Use your bow to keep them from getting too close to the wagon. If you make it to town with one bottle you receive the Romani Mask. (P.S. Though it doesn't help much, if you wear the Circus Leader's Mask, the theives won't come near you. But you can't get this Mask without Romani's Mask.) Day Three +++++++++ This event can be done during any day, but can be accomplished early on in the game by doing it during the final day. You need the Bremen Mask to finish this task. Any time Poor Grog wants to see his chickens grow up to be roosters. Help him out before by slapping on the Bremen Mask and marching around by pressing B. moon falls Carefully gather each chick, once you have all ten they will grow up into some stupendous strutters. (I suggest you have your time slowed and at least four hours to do this task as you march VERY slowly and may need the time.) Your reward for helping this misplaced rocker is the bunny hood which allows you to run like Deku Link. ---------------------------------- 4.3 The Greatest Show on Earth (?) ---------------------------------- This involves the myriad preformers who have entered the town for the Festival of Time. Who you'll help: - Guru-Guru (aka the music box player) - Mr. Toto - Gorman - Rosa Sisters Guru-Guru +++++++++ Times: Day One or Two between 6 A.M- 6 P.M Poor Guru-Guru has a bad case of the guilts, listen for his music box and follow it to the Laundry Pool. All you have to do is listen to his troubles. Afterward you will receive the Bremen Mask Mr. Toto and Gorman +++++++++++++++++++ Times: Day One or Two between 10 P.M.- 5 P.M. First you must meet Mr. Toto, manager of the Zora Band the Indigo-Go's, in Madame Aroma's Parlor. Later meet him in the Milk Bar Latte after you have Romani's Mask and all three transformation Masks. Preform a sound check as all four characters. This makes Mr. Toto very happy. After this talk to Gorman, who is sitting at the bar,you will learn your music made the poor sod very happy. You will receive the Circus Leader's Mask for your beautiful music. (P.S.- Hey all you history junkies out there, did you hear the Indigo-Go's number one hit? It's Ballad of the WindFish from Link's Awakening for Gameboy!) The Rosa Sisters ++++++++++++++++ Times: Day One or Two between 6 P.M.-6 A.M. The Rosa sisters are twin dancing girls who are looking for a new dance. Have you found someone else who wants to have his dance craze live on? If you haven't found Kemaro, find him and use his Mask for the girls. Pressing B while wearing this Mask makes you repeat his funky dance. Dancing in front of the girls captures their heart, quite literally in fact. Your reward is a heart piece! (P.S- the girls captured my brother's heart, he replays the scene over and over.) ----------------------------- 4.4 Other Citizens of Termina ----------------------------- Here are all the characters who don't really belong to a certain story line, but who give out really useful items.

In later versions I will finish the section, I promise. ------------------------------------------ 7.0 Creepy Crawlies and Bumps in the Night ------------------------------------------ This section deals with all the enemies and how to defeat them, the bosses are not listed because they are already placed in The Characters section. 7.1 Creepy Crawlies ==================== All these critters are just the normal enemies you find while running around or in the dungeons. Sub- bosses are in the Bumps in the night area. Armos +++++ Appearence: A statue Habitat: Stone Tower Temple Strategy: Hit 'em with a Goron punch first then follow up with the second punch while they're still waking up. Finally do the duck and cover thing because these babies blow when defeated. Beamos ++++++ Appearance: Look like little tripods with an eye on top Habitat: Stone Tower Area Strategy: Chuck a bomb then duck, because their head blows when defeated. Big Octo ++++++++ Appearance: HUGE octorock Habitat: Southern Swamp Strategy: When you have the bow just stand back and shoot, but untill then you'll just have to hitch a ride from Kotake. Bio Deku Baba +++++++++++++ Appearance: When above water they look like lilly pads, but from below they are Deku Babas hanging upside down from the pad Habitat: Great Bay Temple, Stone Tower Temple Strategy: Easy to beat as long as you keep your head. First Z target and hit them with an arrow to send them to the bottom. Then either try to pick them off from above or go down as Zora Link and use the electric attack. Black Boe +++++++++ Appearance: Usually as just a pair of glowing eyes, in the light they are little shadowy blobs with glowing eyes Habitat: Woodfall, Stone Tower, Below the Well Strategy: Just keep slashing, one slash will take care of them but they attack in packs and have no honor. Blue Bubble +++++++++++ Appearance: Bat winged skull that is surrounded by a gostly blue flame Habitat: Termina Feild and Ikana Canyon at night, also in Ikana Palace and Stone Tower Stategy: One touch causes you to loose the power to draw your sword. Use the arrows or hookshot to pick them off from afar or whip out the Great Fairy Sword and wade right in. Playing the Song of Storms or waiting a few minutes will cure the curse. Blue Chuchu +++++++++++ Appearance: Contrary to other Chuchus, it is just a blue blob with nothing in it's belly Habitat: Great Bay Temple Strategy: Really, all they are are overgrown stepping stones, peg one with an ice arrow and jump onto it's head. Blue Tekite +++++++++++ Appearance: Spiderlike blue and yellow creature Habitat: Snowhead Area Strategy: Just keep slashing, eventually you'll get a lucky hit. They're also easy to just avoid. Death Armos +++++++++++ Appearance: Larger and nastier version of the regular Armos Habitat: Stone Tower Strategy: Hit the special panels with the light arrows. When hit it will flip upside down and try to crush you. Move out of the way and be ready for an explosion. Deep Python +++++++++++ Appearance: Really scary wormlike monsters who inhabit holes underwater Habitat: Pinnacle Rock Strategy: Swim into them with Zora Link's Barrier Attack on. Did someone say sushi? Deku Baba +++++++++ Appearance: Looks like an ugly purple flower till you get close and it starts biting at you Habitat: Everwhere there are trees or woods Strategy: Just hit 'em. They are the easiest enemy in the game except for the Chuchus. Desbreko ++++++++ Appearance: A giant skeleton of a lantern fish surrounded by skullfish Habitat: Gerudo Fortress and Great Bay Temple Strategy: Use Zora Link's boomerang attack from afar, but the Barrier Attack when up close. Dixiehand +++++++++ Appearance: Pale white hand anchored to walls that appears to wave in the current, but wants to grab YOU Habitat: Great Bay Temple, Stone Tower, Beneath the Well Strategy: Use Zora Link's boomerang attack and they collapse easily. Dodongo +++++++ Appearance: Really big lizard Habitat: Termina Feild and some Hidden Holes Strategy: The real way to defeat them is to throw a bomb in their mouths. However, it is easier to sneak up on thier tails and slash them. Their tails are the only unarmored area and, like a loarge number of enemies in this game, will explode after you defeat them. Dragonfly +++++++++ Appearance: An oversized Dragonfly Habitat: Woodfall Area and Temple Strategy: Shoot them down with arrows and Deku Bubbles, but don't get close. Their tails have a nasty shock that will knock you off of your perch and take away a good bit of life. Eeno ++++ Appearance: Moving snowdrifts of differing sizes Habitat: Snowhead Area, Snowfall Temple, and Termina Feild Strategy: Use bombs or a Goron punch, but beware, the large Eenos turn into a few smaller Eenos when hit. Fire Keese ++++++++++ Appearance: Look just like regular Keese, but are enshrouded in flame Habitat: Beneath the Well and Stone Tower Area Strategy: Don't let them hit you! You will catch on fire as well as be hurt by the Keese. Their fire will go out after they attack, but they will relight. Just shoot them like regular Keese. Freezard ++++++++ Appearance: An icy face that blows no good Habitat: Snowhead Temple, Beneath the Well Strategy: If their breath touches you, you'll be frozen. However, they cannot turn to orient on you, so either steam them with Fire Arrows or turn them into ice cubes with a few slashes. Giant Bee +++++++++ Appearance: Like a giant yellowjacket Habitat: Beehives and Snowhead Area (in the spring) Strategy: No longer can you just abuse these poor bee's homes, they now fight back. Be prepared to take them on wherever you happen to abuse a beehive. Just slash them. Gibdo +++++ Appearance: A living mummy Habitat: Ikana Area and Stone Tower Strategy: I personally would use the Gibdo Mask whenever I am in their presence. If they see you, you will freeze for a short amount of time and in that time they will jump on your back and suck out your life. You can try to shake them off by wiggling the control stick, but I would avoid the situation entirely and just shoot them from afar. (Fire Arrows add comic relief, but will turn them into a Redead, so plan accordingly.) Golden Skulltula ++++++++++++++++ Appearance: A spider sporting a golden Mask Habitat: Special Spider Houses Strategy: These enemies are weak, you can use almost any attack to finish them off, just don't attack them as a Zora. (Long story) Green Chuchu ++++++++++++ Appearance: A large green blob with a magic potion in its belly Habitat: Termina Feild ect. Strategy: Seek out and destroy these monsters whenever your magic is low, just slash at them, but know that they will jump. Guay ++++ Appearance: Purple crow-like creatures that swoop down and attack Link Habitat: If it's open, it's fair game Strategy: Hit them before they hit you, usually your only warning will be either a flash of yellow or the battle music. Use an arrow or bubble to shoot them out of the air. Hiploops ++++++++ Appearance: Charging bugs that come with or without Masks Habitat: Stone Tower and Woodfall Area Strategy: Hit it with your sword before it starts to charge you, if it has a Mask you'll need to steal it with the hookshot before attacking. Ice Keese +++++++++ Appearance: These bats look like Keese, but are shouded in ghostly blue vapor Habitat: Beneath the well, Snowhead Mountain Strategy: Don't let them hit you, you'll take damage from the hit and from the ice block that encases you after. Shoot them with an arrow to end their rime of terror. Keese +++++ Appearence: Bats Habitat: Anywhere the sun don't shine (Swamp, nighttime, Temples, ect.) Strategy: Hit them when they dive or Z target and release a volley of arrows. Leever ++++++ Appearance: Large green spinning critters that pop out of the ground Habitat: Termina Feild and Great Bay Area Strategy: Leevers are extremely fast and agressive, they aslo tend to gang up. My advice is to either trample them with Epona or pray that your Nikes don't wear out. Like-Like +++++++++ Appearance: Flowing tan tubes Habitat: Great Bay Area Strategy: Contrary to appearance, Like-Likes are nasty to cross. They will stretch to amazing lengths and swallow you. You may then find yourself sheildless unless you defeat the creature quickly. Shoot it twice with arrows, first to stun then kill. If swallowed as Zora Link, turn on the Barrier attack and zap it from the inside. Mad Scrub +++++++++ Appearance: Orange bush like creatures, they are Deku Scrubs gone BAD Habitat: Woodfall Area and Deku Palace Strategy: Knock their own nuts back at them, take them out with an air attack, shoot with a bubble, slash them, the possibilites are endless! Mini Baba +++++++++ Appearance: Bud-like Deku Baba Habitat: Many many places Strategy: If you don't know what to do, I ain't tellin ya. Nejiron +++++++ Appearance: These creatures look surprisingly like Gorons until they attack Habitat: Ikana Canyon and Stone Tower Temple Strategy: You really can't defeat them, they roll up and explode and its hard to get a hit in edgewise, so creep by in the Stone Mask and hope that you never meet a Goron that PO'd. Octorock ++++++++ Appearance: Puprle Octopi comes to mind Habitat: Water you kidding me? Strategy: Use the Sheild to give them a taste of their own medicine, or possibly freeze them with Ice Arrows. (Say bye bye to all that bridge matinince.) Peahat ++++++ Appearance: Large swirling floating machines o' death Habitat: Hidden Holes Strategy: Strange, but this seems to be one of the only monsters that ever sleep, you can only attack during the day. Their only weakspot is a know underneath the blades. Poe +++ Appearance: A ghost (duh!) Habitat: Ikana and Stone Tower Temple Strategy: I hope you don't rely too much on Z targeting because it ain't gonna work. Poes only appear un Z targeted and sometimes not even then. Beware of spin attacks from their death lights and know that they like to retreat, so have a good supply of arrows. (By the way, I've heard Poes are good bottled.) Real Bombchu ++++++++++++ Appearance: Take one look and ask me WHY they named a cute little bomb after these rodents Habitat: Anywhere you look we got em Strategy: Take them out from AFAR. Why else did you think they call the moving bombs Bombchus. Red Bubble ++++++++++ Appearance: A Skull surrounded by baelful hellfire (Sorry summer reading getting to me) Habitat: Snowhead Temple (Isn't it Ironic) Strategy: Take them out from afar, they are just like Blue Bubbles, but without that curse thing. Red Chuchu ++++++++++ Appearance: A large red blob sporting a heart piece in its belly Habitat: If it's outside, it's fair game Strategy: The same with any other Chuchu, but look for them when you've lost heart. Re-Dead +++++++ Appearance: A walking corpse with a wooden Mask Habitat: Ikana Canyon and Ikana Palace Strategy: Don't let it see you or you'll freeze in place while it makes itself your new hat, just wear the Gibdo Mask or Captain's Hat and they won't attack. Shell Blade +++++++++++ Appearance: A clamshell with spikes Habitat:Gerudo Frortress and Great Bay Temple Strategy: You need to attack it while it's open, a good strategy is either arrows or Zora Link's Boomerang attack. Skullfish +++++++++ Appearance: A skeletal fish Habitat: Great Bay Temple and Area Strategy: Use Zora Link's Barrier attack to zap them. Anyone for fried fish? Skulltula +++++++++ Appearance: A giant skull with spider legs that drops from above Habitat: Many many places Strategy: Okay, if you haven't played Ocarina of Time raise your hand. For those of you new to the Zelda scene you need to hit their soft backsides when they turn around. Snapper +++++++ Appearance: A turtle with spikes on it's shell Habitat: Mystery Forest, Woodfall Temple, and scattered throughout the game Strategy: You need to be aware this monster is FAST, you need to bomb it and then attack its exposed belly. However, you could also use Deku Link to burrow into a flower and then pop up when it is over the flower. Stalchild +++++++++ Appearance: A very small skeleton Habitat: Oceanside Spider House and Ikana Graveyard Strategy: You know that long piece of razor sharp metal you own? Use it. If you want some useful info out of them, talk to them using the Captain's Hat. Takkuri +++++++ Appearance: A deranged Buzzard Habitat: Just outside of Milk Road Straegy: You win 200 rupees for defeating it, but he may steal an item of yours that is Very important. (see afforementioned piece of metal) To reclaim your stolen goods just take a trip to the Curiosity Shop. Wallmaster ++++++++++ Appearance: First a large shadow then a disembodied hand Habitat: Beneath the Well and in Ikana Graveyard Strategy: Listen for a groan and watch for a large shadow below you. Keep running till the shadow freezes and then move out of the way, a few sword hits will clear the problem up. But beware they like to drop you at the beginning of a dungeon. White Boe +++++++++ Appearance: A white fluffball with glowing red eyes Habitat: Snowhead Temple and Area Strategy: Just attack them, but be warned when they attack in swarms. White Wolfos ++++++++++++ Appearance: White Wolves Habitat: Snowhead Mountain Area and Temple Strategy: Hit them in the back for a one hit victory or just keep up Z targeting them until they lower their defense.

Yellow Chuchu +++++++++++++ Appearance: A yellow blob with arrows in it's belly Habitat: Great Bay Temple and Stone Tower Temple Strategy: The same as all other Chuchus but seek them out when you are low on arrows. 7.2 Bumps in the Night ======================= It's Sub-boss time! These are your favorite enemies who appear to either discourage you or to guard a heart piece or other important item. The Four Poe Sisters ++++++++++++++++++++ Appearance: Four Poes of differing color, they once appeared in Ocarina of Time as REAL Sub-bosses Location: These four lovely sisters are found in the Spirit House and are the Poes you have to defeat for the game. Strategy: To defeat Amy you will need to wait till she is stationary and then hit her with arrows. For both Beth and Jo you need to defeat with sword strikes as they attack you from accross the room. Finally, you must defeat Meg. To send her to the great beyond shoot the Meg lookalikes as they circle you, four lucky hits should do it. (Any literary critics here will note the four sisters from Little Women and the subsquent books.) Big Poe +++++++ Appearance: Like a larger Poe Location: Beneath the Well and Ikana Graveyard Strategy: Same as for either Amy, Beth, or Jo of the Poe sisters, but you can bottle these when they are defeated.

Gomess ++++++ Appearance: A swordweilding monstrosity which wears a coat of Keese Location: Stone Tower Temple Strategy: To dissipate its cloak of Keese hit it with a Light Arrow, then run up and hit it with your sword.

On midnight of the Final Day we find our young hero again on the top of the Clock Tower, but this time you have some friends who will help. NOTE- before you go make sure you have AT LEAST ten masks, the minimum required to complete the game. * Play the Oath to order to summon the four protectors of Termina * Follow Majora's Mask to to the moon by the portal it leavs. * Give each of the four children the masks they wish and then complete the ensuing game of hide and seek. * Finally you will find one child sitting against the tree wearing Majora's Mask, talk to him and you will be transported to the ULTIMATE BATTLE. Many Faces of Majora -------------------- Majora has three transformations, in each of the three you need to react differently. Oh, and bye the bye if you collected all 23 masks, first of all my congrats. This task is not easy, second it will cause the Moon Children to reward you with the Fierce Deity's Mask. This, of course, makes defeating Majora a titchy bit easier. Majora's Mask ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is Majora's fist phase. The Mask will fly around like a buzz saw, wait until you can attack the unarmored back side of this deity. After three hits the Remains Masks will start to attack while Majora begins to unleash a stream of fire. Kill the Remains Masks off with two arrows each and then reflect the fire beam back at Majora to toast it. Majora's Incarnation ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is Majora's second phase, this phase has long arms and legs. It will run around and taunt you, much like Odolwa, only pausing to shoot energy at you. Charge up your spin attack then unleash the energy. Finish it off while it lies stunned. Majora's Wrath ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The final try of Majora to vanquish you, this time Majora sports VERY long whip like tentacles. To finish it off, everyone together now, USE THE LIGHT ARROWS! ( I'm very sure those of us who played Ocarina were expecting that, huh?) Then rush in and slash it with your sword. Huzza Huzza! You have defeated Majora's Mask and have saved the world once again! Or have you? Did you help everyone? Do every side quest? If not, then your ending will be a tiny bit bittersweet. However, why don't you go back and fix that? As you know, there's no time like the past! -------------------------------- 9.0 Credits and Acknowledgements -------------------------------- Before I wrap this up, please, I beg of you, ASK MY PERMISSION to place this guide on your site. It took me many many hours and many many breakdowns to finish this guide. If you need to contact me with further questions about this gameguide or further gameguides, e-mail me at Starling_86@TreeWay.zzn.com. I look at this about once a month, so if your e-mail doesn't pertain to the above, kindly shut up. And yes, there will be another version of this guide posted someday. Behind every guide there are some truly great people, and I don't mean myself. * Thanks to Mr. Miyamoto for all the work he has done in the past and will in the future. He is the REAL hero of the Triforce! UPDATE= Sorry to hear about your downfall Mr. M, Please somebody do something about this horrible cel shading in the Gamecube game! * Thanks to my parents and sibling for listening to my babbling about this guide. * Thank all of you at Prima Gameguides for helping ME get through the game the first time. (If this guide really didn't help, contact the great folks at primagames.com.) * Thanks to all the wonderful people at QED radio in Pittsburgh. * Thank you Nintendo for all your great games. (All characters and products in this guide are copyrighted by Nintendo, not just a product of my diseased imagination.) * Finally, thanks to the posse, (You know who you are) without whom I would only be a po. Oh, You thought this guide was over. Congrats for your perserverence, there are a few little things I'd like to add. The Secrets +++++++++++ Every game has secrets and funny little quirks that make the game unique. Mask is no exception. * You have probably heard the Deku Stick rumor. If you touch a butterfly with a Deku Stick, it will turn into a fairy. Guess what? It's true! I have only done it once in Snowhead but I swear on the honor of Richard Nixon it is true. * Listen to the Gossip Stones, what they tell you is true. (mostly) Chateau Romani does max out your magic meter for three days when you drink it, but I can't promise anything if it's not fresh. * Have you checked out the masks on the Happy Mask Man? One is Mario! * If you wear a mask and show it to the Happy Mask Man, he will tell you what it means. * Link is looking for Saria, if you haven't figured that out yet. * When you break a sign, it can be healed using the Song of Healing. * Some minigames have a way you can cheat a bit. Honey and Darling's target game will stop the timer briefly if you hit them with an arrow. The treasure chest game will let you buy a ticket as one character, but race as another! This is useful for Goron Link's prize. * While in Termina Feild, there are some secrets. Look through the observatory telescope to find a Guay who, excuse me, poops rupees. Just zoom in on it and watch where it drops the rupees. Also, in the tree near the observatory, the kid who fills in for the Shop Owner while he is gone sits up there with a stash of rupees. Roll attack into the tree to cause him and the rupees to drop. While in the Woodfall section of the feild, you will find a cloud of butterfies. If you follow them you will drop into a hidden hole! In the Snowhead area of the feild there is a staff with a picture of the Skull Kid next to it. If you play the notes, rupees will fall from the picture! Some of the songs are from Ocarina. * In Clock Town, the owner of the shop is actually the fishing shop owner from Ocarina of Time. If you check the glass case in the corner you will find an amusing caption. * Dogs love Zoras, hate Deku Scrubs, and fear Gorons. * The Mask of Truth allows you to hear animal thoughts, this really helps when trying to find the fastest dog in the dog race, just pick them up and listen to them. * Try different weapons on gossip stones and see how they react! * If you play the Song of Healing next to a Gossip Stone, it will release a fairy! * There are four chests containing silver rupees in Clock Town. Get the Bunny Hood and run over the roof accross from the Stock Pot Inn, jump the gap and land on the colum, from there jump to the basket over Honey and Darling's shop and finally jump to the area behind the Octorock shooting gallery. Inside the Bomber's "secret passage" turn left instead of going straight at the water area, you will encounter a skultulla. Turn left into the little alcove and bomb the cracked wall. Inside "your" room in the Stock Pot Inn. Inside the Employees Only Room in the Stock Pot Inn. * The Goron whose room you took has the name of Link Durania, he was the son of Durania in Ocarina of Time. * If you roll into a counter that holds a cow statuette, the cow will bob its head. * If you shoot the center of the clock in the center of Clock Town, it will rain rupees. * At the top of the observation tower on the final night you will find a purple rupee. * Remeber the "tree" that looked like it was crying in the beginning of the game? That was the Deku Butler's son, and the source of your Mask. Remember that he said you reminded him of his son? That's why. * Can't finish Keaton's quiz?
