A Genius Tactic

One speedrunner, marumottii on X (formerly Twitter), found a truly genius way to skip massive parts of the game! By combining the Old Bed Echo with the Tornado Echo, they launched Zelda’s bed way up in the air and even from one zone to another, crossing huge areas much, much faster!

  • Using these Echoes they got from the beginning, they were able to fly from the bottom of Eldin Volcano all the way up to Goron City. This takes only seconds compared to what is usually done which can be several minutes!

This makes the game a whole lot easier and opens a wide range of other possibilities that only more time can reveal!
