guide for ph, so mad at myself

I just got phantom hourglass a few days ago, im enjoying it really well and am finding it quite easy but with a few difficult parts. I always refuse to use a guide and the only time i was close was in the totok where you had to draw on the slab thing. I figured that out and then continued. Then i annoy my dumb ass self and had to use a guide. Where? On the stupid ghost ship. where it says pull the lever 24513, i couldnt get it. I,
Did the second one first, 4th 2nd etch
did it backwards
threw bombs at it, lol
added all the numbers together then did 1 and 5
I was at it for 1 hour and i was getting really annoyed so i had to check a guide, i really wanted to know. Then it says what was staring me in the face the whole time, pull the 4th one first. Man i was so disappointed. So did any one have a part where they resorted to a guide, and was anyone actually stuck on the part i just mentioned?

....24513, thats my Bomber code

If I have to use I guide, I'm usually stuck in a bad situation. With those types of problems, you should probably go back to the signs that tell you what order to do, and verify if you wrote the right notes or not.

The only major spots I usually get stuck in the game though is the Great Temple of the Ocean King .

You're interpreting the numbers wrong, I did the same thing. You pull the levers in numerical order so first you pull the second from the right, then the leftmost, then the rightmost, then the second to the left, then the middle.

Yeah it took me awhile to figure that part out too. I kept trying everything, and then after awhile it just clicked. I hate turning to guides too -.- I give up and look at them only after hours of frustration.

i never used a guide 'for Ph but i did have a friend with it who had beaten it i think, so if i needed help i just asked him what to do

Mine too!

Just on the door in the TotOK. I couldn't get that. Everything else was a breeze. And 4 days later my guide got stolen right before The Cobble kingdom. That place was hard!

I'll be the first to admit, I'm no pro at Zelda puzzles. I usually need a guide a few times throughout every game, but that 24513 puzzle took me like 2 min. Actually one of the easier puzzles in PH (which I found to have some clever ones, and felt proud because I only looked at GFAQS two times. And it was earlier on in the game. Go me).

I'm playing PH, and i haven't yet needed to use a guide. But some of it is quite hard D:

that was hard but i did not use a guide but i used the guide from MM

I always try not to use guides, I once used them too much and thought it ruined half the fun. It takes a load of frustration before I resort to looking for help. I didn't need guides in PH, but one time came really close. And it was the stupidest, silliest... In the Temple of the Ocean King, the part where it says to press the map to the wall or something... I didn't get that at all, and finally thought I had to look for help, but just when I turned on my computer, I thought "No way... It can't be that simple..." But it was. Just close the DS... ^^'

Ah, this is why I love Nintendo. They make me feel so very stupid xD

i never get confused there
i dont know how you get stuck
they give u answers in game

thats why dont use guides but if your super stuck use a guide video games are meant to be fun without help
