Early City in the Sky

HD-Version discovered by Venick

Description

Like in TPSD this trick allows you to clip through the statue blocking your way to the cannon needed to access the City in the Sky. The cannon can then be warped, repaired, and then used for access to CitS. The trick allows you to skip the entire Temple of Time and half of Snowpeak Ruins, saving around 1 hour and 4 minutes in an any% speedrun.

How To

1. Go to Renado's basement in Kakariko Village.
2. As a human, carefully line yourself up on the left crack between the statue and the wall.
3. Transform into a wolf calling Midna (don't use Quick Transform). Hold ZL + ZR to store a jump attack. If successful, Link will clip inside the statue, allowing you to progress to the cannon.
4. Get close to the cannon so that the Z button appears on the screen, talk to Midna, then open up the Map Screen and Warp to Lake Hylia.

Notes

• If you do not get Auru's Memo before transferring the Sky Cannon to Lake Hylia, Auru will not appear, and you cannot get his memo.
• If you attempt to repair the cannon before showing Auru's Memo to Fyer, and visiting Gerudo Desert once, the game will crash.
• You will notice that when you try to talk to Midna to warp the Sky Cannon, her text concerning Shad will come up even though he is not present. To overcome this, you can simply manually open up your map and select a warp point.
