Once you enter the dungeon go RIGHT, kill the Ropes and collect the KEY and go UP Skip the Ropes on the screen and go UP If you kill the Goriya that spawns up and to the right of the center blocks it will kill everything in the room (this is called a master mob) collect any drops and go UP Kill the Ropes on this screen, collect the KEY and go UP Kill the Moldorms on this screen, collect the KEY and go UP Kill the Ropes on the screen to open the shutter door and go UP Kill the Goryias on this screen to open the shutter door, collect the BOMBS in the upper corner and go UP Kill the Dodongo, collect the HEART CONTAINER, and go LEFT Collect the TRIFORCEKilling Dodongo can be done one of two ways. First is to feed it two bombs by placing it in the walking path of the mob. The other is to have the bomb explode and the smoke hit it in the face causing it to be stunned, which you then hit it with your sword (this also forces a bomb drop). This can be done by feeding it one bomb and immediately placing another in it's face so the smoke goes off or by placing a bomb on one of the lines above or below where it is walking so that it walks into the smoke explosion (thereby saving 1 bomb). ------------Bomb-------- <----- Dodgongo ---------------------------_________________________________________________________________________________Get the 30 SECRET right and up of 2Get the HEART CONTAINER up and left of the 30 secret by bombing the rockGet the 30 SECRET right of the heart by bombing the rockGet the 100 SECRET north of the dead treeGet the LETTER from the old woman two screens left and one up of the 100 secret.
