Now, let's see... Are we talking most powerful as in strength, or most powerful as in damage-wise? Well, either way, the Great Fairy's Sword is Link's most powerful weapon. Not only it does 120% damage, but Link also slowly recovers his health during the battle, making him a force that might be very hard to beat.

Snowheads Alternate would be Zora's Fountain wouldn't it?

By power, I simply mean offensive strength. Each weapon has strengths and weaknesses so I was just going for pure power.

What the heck has Zora's Domain got to do with Snowhead? O.o'' The fact that it gets frozen? No way, that was just a temporary thing, Zora's Domain's alternate is the Zora Hall, obviously.

Megaton Hammer - most powerful weapon

Alternate to Snowhead - Death Mountain/Goron City (both Goron homesteads)

edit:
(Kitten Yiffer, Wind Waker does not follow the MM storyline, it branches from the future of OoT.)


No, you're wrong . There's only one OoT time thing; TWW talks about how Link was gone when Ganon attacked (hence him being in MM). There's only one storyline .

Megaton Hammer is indeed the most powerful weapon.

However, nobody has got the bonus. Remember, Snowhead is NOT the Goron Village, the actual Snowhead area is much higher on the mountain.

Kyouji Craw - 7 Rupees
Emptyeye - 4 Rupees
Kitten Yiffer - 4 Rupees
NSNick - 3 Rupees
Grey - 3 Rupees

Kario - 1 Rupee
windwaker - 1 Rupee

As for the place of Wind Waker, it gets painfully difficult to work out, but I don't think it makes much difference. Ganon is sealed in the future of OoT. Link returns to the past (and has the Triforce of Courage still, meaning Ganon has the Triforce of Power and must be sealed in the past as well as the future), then leaves Hyrule in Majora's Mask ('several months' later, as stated in the manual. So not five years Kyouji, still seven years).

There is NOT one timeline. OoT unleashes two timelines. One where Ganon took control of Hyrule then was defeated thanks to the Seven Sages and the Hero of Time. This is the storyline that ALttP follows.

The other is where Link returns to the past where Ganon has also been sealed and leaves Hyrule and ends up in Termina.

The return of Ganon mentioned in Wind Waker's opening is *not* Ganon taking over Hyrule as he does in OoT. In Wind Waker, the decendants of the Seven Sages still exist, meaning that Ganon *was* sealed via the Sage's power. If the return of Ganon was his taking over Hyrule in OoT, that would mean the Sages never sealed him.

The return mentioned is a different return, and the hero leaving Hyrule does not necessarily mean Link leaving for Termina. Wind Waker and later games seem to follow on from the future of OoT, after Ganon was sealed. Link's leaving could refer to him returning to the past.

The past was changed, the future remains with Ganon sealed but with Link no longer being there. Link will never exist in that future because he left it.

I suppose it IS possible to suggest that the timeline Link returns to becomes the future timeline anyway, but that gets very confusing. If this was so, where does Link come from seven years in the future? The Master Sword remains in it's place. What would be stopping Ganon from destroying Hyrule immediately? Obviously there was no imminent threat, as Link would not leave as he does in Majora's Mask. The only answer is that Ganon is sealed in both the past and the future, meaning the past was changed.

26 - In both Super Smash Bros. and Soul Calibur 2, Link has a red tunic (Goron Tunic), a blue tunic (Zora Tunic), but what does the purple tunic appear to be based on?

The only purple tunic I really can think of from a Zelda game is Garo Master from Majoras Mask. Hope im right ><

On the bonus... Let's see... Snowhead is the equivalent of Death Mountain Crater.

Also it's somewhat flawed of you to say the red and blue tunics are based on the goron and zora tunics, as they were around since they first zelda

I actually have no idea and will not even guess.

Not really. The Red Mail and Blue Mail in ALttP did not have the same colours as the Zora and Goron Tunics, for example. And besides, Link in SSB and SC2 is obviously based on the Link from Ocarina of Time, so there's nothing flawed with what I said.

And I'm removing the bonus because nobody seems to be able to get it.

I was looking for GANON'S TOWER. Now do you see the similarities? A huge tower sitting upon a piece of land floating over a giant pit. Snowhead is not the equivilent of Death Mountain Crater, Woodfall gets that noteriety.

Certain parts of the Snowhead REGION share similarities with Death Mountain Trail and the Goron City obviously has an alternate, but the area in the game that is called 'Snowhead' is very similar to Ganon's Tower.

... Snowhead's a tower? I could've... Well, I can see... But... I always thought it was a mountain Plus, shouldn't the equivalent of Ganon's Tower be the moon?

I have two guesses for the purple tunic question:

:: The final Dark Link in the Palace of Four Swords
:: The Garo Master from Majora's Mask (but Sonicandtails would get the point if this is right, since he guessed it first )

Kyouji: it isn't based on 5 years after when Link was an adult (7 years after the beginning of OoT). Think about it like this: when Link first pulled the master sword, he was locked in the chamber for seven years; he didn't "travel ahead through time" at any abnormal rate, he just slept through it while his soul was sealed in the chamber. Then, Link kills Ganon, and turns into a child again. When he's a child, they already know that in the future, Link would appear again as an adult and kill Ganon, so during MM, the other Link (or whatever) is sleeping in the Sacred Realm, while the young Link is in MM.

That was horribly explained.

1----------------------------------------------------------2
3----------------------------------------------------------4


1: Link gets a fairy, then is locked in the Sacred Realm for seven years.
2: Link awakens, rescues the Sages, kills Ganon, then goes back to when he was a child.
3: Link goes to see Zelda. This is when she gives him the Ocarina and he rides off with Epona (as seen in Majora's Mask).
4: Link has saved Termina, and rides off.

So you see, Link saves Termina WHILE he is sleeping in the Sacred Realm. One timeline >(.

No both of those are wrong. Super Smash Bros. came out in early 1999, well before MM and Four Swords (which were 2000 and 2004, respectively.)

Edit: That was to Karadur.

Windwaker stop commenting on it, there is nothing official and yours makes the least sense out of all the theories I've seen. Plus I said 5 years before Link was an adult, because I'm pretty sure MM is two years later and even if it isn't it's obviously before he's an adult. So meh what I'm saying is OoT's timeline makes no sense and you can't rightly assume anything after it.

My guess would be it is based off the Sheikah seing how their clothing is close to purple (sort of blue, but whatever).

The snowhead question was bogus. Your answer fits just as well as any of the answers we gave you.

Purple tunic = Hyrule Colors The guards where purple, Zelda wears purple, and thats why I picked that one. In the original SSB, Zelda wasn't a character so that makes sense to me.

No.

Explain how that could possibly when Majora's Mask talkes place 5 years before Ganon is vanquished?

Like I said, Link travelled back in time at the end of OoT. We don't know when exactly MM took place, but judging by the age of link in MM, it wasn't more than 3 or 4 years that Link left Hyrule Castle.

Plus I said 5 years before Link was an adult, because I'm pretty sure MM is two years later and even if it isn't it's obviously before he's an adult.

You said it yourself =D.

So meh what I'm saying is OoT's timeline makes no sense and you can't rightly assume anything after it.

Oh. Well, you can never rightly assume anything, can you? There always has to be doubt >>. You're right; all I'm saying is there aren't two realities or timelines; MM comes after OoT in Link's life; and from his age we pretty much assume it's less than seven years after the end of OoT.

What's up with these questions? There is no official Snowhead analogy in OoT ;P.

Let's keep 'em coming .

Here's my explanation to the OOT MM and WW timeline:

*OOT AND WW SPOILER ALERT*

This text is from OOT/MM's point of view. This text is from WW's legend's point of view

1: Link sleeps for seven years. The evil force gets his hand on the Triforce.
2: Link and the sages seals Ganondorf away. The green boy appears as out of nowhere.
3: Link returns to his original time and visits Zelda.
4: Link leaves Hyrule and falls into Termina. The picture of link leaving Hyrule Castle.
5: Link saves Termina.
6: Ganondorf's seal is broken. (He mentions something line "Someday, when this seal is broken..." at the end of OOT.) The darkness returns.
7: Ganon tries to cover Hyrule in darkness.
8: The gods freezes the time in Hyrule and buries it under the sea
9: (Insert WW storyline here)

Actually, he doesn't. The gods do in a last attempt to seal Ganondorf (the whole "Underwater Hyrule" things was made by gods)
