Quick tips

  • Kokiri Forest and the Great Deku Tree

    Gear up in the forest

    Get the Kokiri Sword from the forest's maze area and pick up a Deku Shield. Learn Z-targeting, and break pots and grass for rupees and hearts.

  • Kokiri Forest and the Great Deku Tree

    Deku Tree tools

    Use Deku Sticks for light and burning, and the Slingshot for switches and eyes. In the boss fight, stun it and then slash.

  • Kokiri Forest and the Great Deku Tree

    Stock Sticks and Nuts

    Keep a few Deku Sticks and Nuts on hand, since both are useful against early enemies. Buy a Deku Shield only if you lose yours, because a sturdier shield comes later.
