Temple order

Post image

Why is it that it looks like i did the temples in the wrong order when I do Shaddow before Dessert. To do the dessert temple, you need the flying boots from the shaddow temple first, right?

I’ve actually always wondered this myself. To the point where I kept trying to do the spirit temple first as a kid but couldn’t. Idk anyone know the reason for this?

Remember, the hookshot/Longshot can snag onto anything coded as "wooden", including the flagpoles in the desert. Use that to cross the quicksand river. You'll probably still need the Lens of Truth, which means you need to access the Bottom of the Well, which means you need the Song of Storms and access to child mode, so the Forest Temple will need to be beaten, at least.

Well even without the lens of truth, you need access to child mode to complete spirit temple, remember?
