Master Quest Water Temple -- the secret locked door

[Ericboy0981]

What's inside there?

[himrules123456]

after all these years ocarine of time is still unbeated and the water temple (this one) remains to be the easest and most fun temple in the whole game for me XD i know that might sound weird because lots of people hate this temple BUT I LOVE IT <3

[TheEgyptianHippo]

I always went through a chain of rooms that led me out that secret door with a key, I never even knew there were stalfos in the dungeon.

[avengah]

If you skip the statues, get the key then unlock the door, does it cause the statues to raise? Does it cause the Stalfos to not appear?

[petrie911]

@avengah The statues will be raised, but the Stalfos will still appear. Beating them won't do anything, though.

[Scharfster]

Is this in the Master Quest 3DS version? I beat it but I'm quite lazy to go find it.

[dvdcollector613]

@Scharfster I do believe this was corrected in the 3DS version, because I'm playing through it now, and I played through the temple normally, and this door was still locked, so therefore, the extra key was necessary.

[ProfMike789]

Has anyone hacked the game to detach the Stalfos trigger from the locked door? If so, I'd like to play it and see how difficult the MQWT was intended to be.

[petrie911]

@ProfMike789 ...Actually, it changes almost nothing.  The key for that door is very close to it, and this part of the temple is optional anyways.

[ProfMike789]

@petrie911 Anyway, is hovering ABSOLUTELY necessary to see the locked door?

[snappleboy16]

Whats in the locked door?

[BonzoDerClown]

@snappleboy16

The Triforce

[snappleboy16]

@BonzoDerClown Sarcasm FTW

[FIREDELL10]

why does he only have 3 hearts!?

[IggyFLOP88]

@FIREDELL10 Because he´s doing the so-called "3-heart challenge" which requires you to beat the game with only 3 hearts which obviously is a TOUGH challenge!

[redilliop]

@IggyFLOP88 that is tough! If I can get through the Deku Tree without dying, I'm able to do the rest- thanks to bottles and fairies!

[ShuckleShellAnemia]

9:46 was the greatest part.

[GardenHillislandlake]

arrrrrggggggggggggg so thats where that was.... i knew something was funny around that area..... stupid! stupid! stupid!... hehe jk thnx dude

[JB007Link]

NICE FIND! I thought that Nintendo forgot to lock that door... Maybe 3DS version of the game will be fixed? Yes, OOT3D will include Master Quest.

[PhantomAlxa99]

The "Locked" door he found was the other side of an acessible door

[Filiolus]

it takes so long to go into the start menu what the hell

[TheDoctorTL3]

@Filiolus emulators has this glitch. it's passed using a cheat

[linksoer]

Very very nice, no, Excelent find! I always wondered why I had an extra key when I had all the rooms unlocked and explored. Thanks man!

how long has it been since this game came out? and we barely find out ,thanks to you, why we had an extra key. Again, great find, and thanks!

[PhantomAlxa99]

@linksoer The locked door is the other side of an accessible door.

[rayzorium]

Oh god. This gave me nightmares.

[3512435124]

hmm.... so defeating the skull dudes is supposed to trigger what? i can infer that they perhaps meant to unlock another door but accidentally coded for the wrong door to open

[petrie911]

@3512435124 It raises the dragon head statues in the room.

[wilproz]

(Continued)

And then while its unlocked (like its supposed to be.)

You can go back and activate the dragon statues then head back to the door to see it unlock itself without needing a key. Thus explaining why the key is considered an error by players because of a small programming error.

[wilproz]

Correct me if I'm wrong.

This video is about the extra key in the water temple.

When you unlock a door it sets of a switch in the game for the game to see the door as unlocked. But activating the dragon statues in the room before dark link accidentally activates the switch to the door that's supposed to be locked when you reach it.

But do to the programing error when you activate the statues makes the door unlocked when you reach it.

So you skip the statues and reach the door when its locked.

[mailanbr]

So what's in the door?

[3iikka]

what the hell is behind that door?

[Fiercelinkmaster76]

You can never stop learning about OoT.

[GuitarHeroDice]

So... What's behind the door?

[Connor3474]

Whats in the door? Or can you not go in?

[Jon166]

@Connor3474 I'm pretty sure the point is that you go through the door normally to get through the dungeon, but it's only locked if you bypass the statues.

[ZeldaFreakGlitcha]

Fascinating

[SylvanLynch]

Silly petrie, not using the quick boot switch mod :P

[petrie911]

@SylvanLynch I thought of that, but I wanted to prove this existed on an unmodified MQ. Notice that this isn't even the Debug ROM; it's the released version of MQ.

[MasterLuigiSW]

that's interesting I must say, nice find :)

[olivebates]

I dont remember this being in the Game Cube version

[olivebates]

@olivebates

oh wait right, the master quest xD

[SolunaFate37]

Very nice find. And you're really good at the game. Did it take you long to rehearse this video, or was it all one run? Your Shadow Link kill was pretty funny, too; never thought to do that...

Also, I did not see the bombchu jumping at 4:15 coming. You are most definitely the best bombchu jumper I've ever seen.

[petrie911]

@SolunaFate37 It's mostly tool assisted, for reasons of expediency. This fact is most obvious in the waterfall room, where I make the fairly precise shots a little too smoothly, and in the Stalfos room, where I don't miss a single hit.

However, bombchu hovering with hover boots isn't very hard. It's pretty much the same as bombchu hovering in MM.

[palmeiras321]

And why you didint open it?

[lncurable]

Nice find.

[Icyytouch]

good video... but what's on the other side of the door? lol

[PatrikRSM]

really interesting find man.

..but how the hell did you find it? It seems kinda impossible to just realise "oh, maybe it's one of those switches causing the door to open!".

Impressive.

[hypersuperultrahaku]

@PatrikRSM

He was probably hacking the Water Temple and found that they were connected.

[petrie911]

@hypersuperultrahaku Yup, that's exactly what happened.

[TheDoctorTL3]

@hypersuperultrahaku tasing and glitching makes u find this things

[hypersuperultrahaku]

@TheDoctorTL3

But he wasn't doing either of those to find this

He was hacking

[TheDoctorTL3]

@hypersuperultrahaku then how did he find the door was locked?

[hypersuperultrahaku]

@TheDoctorTL3

While hacking the Water Temple, found out that the lock on that door and that dragon statue were connected.

[Hophoolio]

did you find this by trial and error, randomly or did you find it by studying the switch flags in the game?

[oligi3008]

Wow, I always wanted to know the secret of the extra key.

Fav

[ewicn]

wow thats really amazing! >_>

you just changed my childhood congrats lol

[WockesZero]

hato read the description to understang, funny though

[Zelda123Zelda123]

I never realized the switch at 7:57 unlocks the other gate. I always thought the area where you get the big key in normal OoT was unreachable in MQ. I guess i should start playing MQ again to see if there's anything else I've missed.

[Tahsistah]

You're a genius.

[Rex0wns]

nice mang.
