All right then. It's a maybe for me too, I'm not going to do it any time soon. The ultimate challenge would have to be beating AoL without the candle.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

Fine fine. So it can be done in ALttP. >_>

But I do know that it cannot be done in LA.

Canceling the level-up upgrade is possible, but the game will eventually force you to choose one of three (after every three level ups I think?) without the cancel option available. There will be enemies (and I don't mean just bosses) that you just have to defeat to get through without getting killed.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

^Exactly. That's why it would be the ultimate challenge! Because it would be near impossible to do. XD

Re: Three Heart Challenge

Yeah, leveling up will happen a few times with eventually the cancel option to be gone, but to choose between magic & sword while not ever picking life can still sustain the "3-heart" challenge. The game is already hard enough even with the sword and magic upgrades anyway.

I don't know about you, but my copy forces me to level up evenly.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

I've done it with every game. They were all easy except LoZ, AoL, OoT (Mainly for Water Temple), OoTMQ, and ALTTP (mainly for Turtle Rock and Ganon's Tower.) All the rest were short and easy. Easy: TP, WW, PH, MM, LA, FS, and FSA. Short: WW, MM, FS, and FSA. But that's in my opinion.

In your first level up, yes, you are given a forced choice. There's also the cancel option. Keep using the cancel option until a 3rd level up, allowing you to choose one of three (instead of just 1 from your first level up or 2 from your 2nd level up), with the cancel option gone. I'll try to test this and confirm how it really goes.

Edited: Here's how it goes:

1st lv up: Life, cancel
2nd lv up: Life, Magic, cancel
3rd lv up: Life, Magic, Sword
4th lv up: Cycle of first 3 lv ups repeat

You can keep leveling up and decide between Magic, Sword, and cancel. You can skip Life until Magic and Sword are capped out. I don't know if the cancel option will be there after capping out Magic and Sword.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

I beat OoT with 3 hearts and no Biggorons Sword.however I used about 44 fairies in the process.

I'm doing it this time with 3 hearts but no heart/magic upgrade or fairies.I'm in the Ice Cavern and I've died 8 times so far (once in the Forest Temple and seven times while fighting Volvagia...cause I forgot I could hide from the rocks by climbing on the side of the platform).

I think a 3 heart challenge is possible with any Zelda but the NES games would be the most difficult for me.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

The trick is to not get hit...after that it's easy

I did it on WindWaker, but i seriously over-used the fairies though.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

I'm in the middle of one for Wind Waker and Phantom Hourglass. I'm at the Earth Temple in WW and just finished the Ice Temple in PH. After I finish these two I plan to 3 heart Twilight Princess, then after that I'll probably do Ocarina.
These are all low % as well. I don't want to have any advantages. That also means no fairies or potions. This is REAL Zelda.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

I've never done only a 3 heart challenge because most games arent worth it (TP, WW, MC, PH, etc.). I've done other challenges that also involve only 3 hearts like OoT uber challenge (which to me isnt really a challenge to me anymore) and OoT and ALttP low% runs (ALttP is pretty damn hard, OoT is absolutely ****ing impossible).
OoT isn`t impossible. I`ve almost beaten it with three hearts, no shield (except when necessary to progress through puzzles/etc. requiring its use), and minimal items.The water temple was easy.

Re: Three Heart Challenge

after months of hardly playing, I continued my 3 heart-challenge of OoT (no fairies/potions/upgrades)

I gotten killed nearly 30 times so far! I'm currently on Bongo Bongo...hopefully I'll get through and improve on my next try.
