Note: If I don't include a location for an item, it means it is necessary for completing the game, and you will get it no matter what.

Usable Items

The Minish Cap AKA Ezlo, it can shrink Link to Minish size at certain places, and can also be used like a parachute to glide through the air.

Smith's Sword Ordinary sword for cutting things, such as grass, Cucoos, and, of course, enemies.

White Sword A more powerful sword that can split Link in two. Once upgraded, it can split Link into three.

Location: After completing the "Goron Quest" to get the fourth bottle (see Kinstones Guide-coming soon!) you will be able to fuse Kinstones with one of the Gorons in the cave, awakening Biggoron on Veil Falls.

Note: you must have completed the game (I.E: defeated Vaati) to get the Mirror Shield.

Bomb the wall on the right between the torches. In the next chamber, use your shield to knock out the Business Scrub, then buy the bottle from him. Second Bottle In the cafe, flip over a vase and use it to shrink to Minish size. Climb a set of small stairs in the back and go across the bookcases and enter a small door. Go across to planks, then cross over to the item store. Go across more planks to find a downwards stairway. You'll come out behind the counter. Grow to normal size and pick up the bottle. Talk to the store owner and he'll give you the bottle for free on the condition that you feed his dog. Go to the place marked on your map and examine the dog bowl to feed the dog and get the bottle. Third Bottle Fuse Kinstones with Link's grandfather to make a chest appear in Lon Lon Ranch. Inside is the third bottle. Fourth Bottle Fuse Kinstones with five Mysterious Walls and a farmer to summon Gorons to a cave in Lon Lon Ranch. Once all fusions have been done, go through the cave for the bottle. See the Kinstones guide (coming soon!) for locations.
