Master schmaster...

[Levyn]

Yeah the title hasn't got much to do with this but anyway. When discussing the OoX games I have heard several people mention that the second sword you get in both games is the Master Sword. This isn't the case in any of the games. The second sword is called the Noble Sword, and as it can be obtained in both Labrynna and Holodrum I see no reason as to why it would be the MS.

It's true that in Holodrum you find it in the Lost Woods (since OoS was originally supposed to be Hyrule from LoZ this place is called the same in both games) but it is still clear as day that it is NOT the MS since it even says Noble Sword and you don't obtain it Hyrule.

In OoA you get a sword that is broken in half. You can get it repaired by a guy who lives in the mountains, if you pass his little mini-game. But why would the MS be broken just like that, and how could a mischievous old hermit be able to fix it so easy?

Nothing ever has inclined that the Noble Sword would be the MS. That's that.

who says its the master sword?
no matter though i cant get it anyway. I still have the wooden sword...

[Levyn]

Well, a lot of people has considered it to be a cameo included in the OoX by Capcom. But since it doesn't have the same name, it is not a cameo-MS but another legitimate sword.

The text dumps say otherwise:

You got the
legendary
Master
Sword!

Master Sword
The blade of
legends.

And here's Noble Sword:

You got the
sacred
Noble
Sword!

Noble Sword
A sacred blade.

Are the last two ones really from the games? I can't recall those quotes. I haven't played OoA in some time so I guess it could be from there, but I seriously doubt it.

EDIT: I meant to say the two first ones. The ones about the MS.

[Hombre de Mundo]

^ The first one is from when you aquire the sword (obviously). Then I guess the last one is an item description. Same goes for the MS

Text dumps are straight from the game, so it's definitely there.

[Levyn]

Okay then I'll have to double check the sword from OoA. 'Cause I've just now been playing OoS and found the Noble Sword, and that is why I started this thread.

[Hombre de Mundo]

^ Ya, well the MS is probably well hidden. It's optional and stuff, after all.

No one said level two sword it's the level three sword am I the only one who played the linked game?

[bitterlime]

^ I sometimes ask myself the same question...

Anway: You get the "Mastersword" only in a linked version of the game!

Since there are two sword upgrades that you can get in different orders, and two possiblities to link the games (OoS->OoA or OoA->OoS) there arre altogether four possible scenarios how you can get the "mastersword".

Yeah well THAT has been a reeeally long time. I haven't linked the games since they were brand new I think. Wow, my memory stinks.

[BigGoronSword]

With the Linked system, there are multiple items you can get: Mirror Shield, Master Sword, BigGoron Sword, Bombchus, and I believe you can get upgrades on your Ring Box, Bomb Satchel, Seed Satchel, and Boomerang (in OoA I believe). Don't write this in stone, it's been ages (and seasons) since I've played those games.

I honestly don't see this as "Theorizing" material. Don't take it too hard, but I'm just going to move this to the Handheld section...

Yes. Noble sword is the L2 sword, and the Master Sword is the L3. I can't remember how you get it, though. The biggoron's sword is out there, too.

Yep, a password gets you these items from people in the other game.
