Glitches

Copies a throwable material, one at a time. This is the version that still works after the 1.2.1 update. It takes practice, because the timing depends on the angle of Link's arm.

You need: one of the material you want to copy, and a ledge roughly as tall as a stake pushed just into the ground. For materials that break when thrown (like eggs or fruit that bursts), you also need Recall.

1. Stand at the ledge. Hold R and press up on the D-pad to pick the material, then let go of the D-pad.
2. Press X to jump off the ledge, then straight away press and hold up on the D-pad.
3. Watch Link's right arm. When his forearm is angled at about 45 degrees, let go of R and keep tapping up until the game offers X to drop. Press X.
4. For breakable materials, use Recall on the thrown item as soon as you land so it doesn't smash.
5. You now have the one you threw plus the one still in your inventory. Repeat as often as you like.

If you see "You can't take that out here", Link's arm was at the wrong angle; try again with different timing. If the item shoots straight down, use a lower ledge. Only 21 dropped items can be on the ground at once, so pick them up as you go.

The easier original version, for games on 1.2.0 or earlier. Hold R and pick the material with the D-pad as above, walk off a ledge (the sides of the steps up to a Skyview Tower work well) and press X while Link is in the air. The material drops, and you still have it in your inventory.

The launch-week classic. Equip the weapon, bow or shield you want to copy and save. Drop it, equip something else, press + twice quickly, drop the second item and reload the save. A copy of the first item is waiting on the ground.

A menu trick that left extra copies of a weapon or shield stuck to Link's hand or back, so you could fight with several at once. Players used it to stack attack power before it was patched.

Lets you sell weapons, shields and bows (which shops normally won't buy) over and over, quickly reaching the Rupee limit. This only works on a new game.

1. Start a new game and finish the Great Sky Island without picking up a single material, so your inventory never gets a Materials tab.
2. Offer to sell to any shopkeeper. The game shows the last tab you unlocked instead, such as Weapons or Shields.
3. Sell the same item as many times as you want: the game can't take it out of your inventory.

It doesn't work if Zonai Devices was the last tab you unlocked.

Not really a glitch (objects resetting when you warp is normal), but a reliable way to farm arrows. In the Lightning Temple's lower floor, in the room leading to the Room of Hopeful Light, there's a standing pot between two knocked-over ones.

1. Fuse the standing pot to a weapon.
2. Warp to the Lightning Temple travel point (or a Travel Medallion you placed).
3. Smash the fused pot against something and collect the arrows inside.
4. Go back: the pot has respawned with more arrows. Repeat.

Used the Horned Statue and a Demon King Ganondorf Autobuild to trade the same hearts back and forth, so players could max out both hearts and stamina, which the game normally doesn't allow. It was patched in version 1.4.2.

Hold a shield while swinging a two-handed weapon or spear as if it were one-handed.

1. Drop the two-handed weapon or spear on the ground, with no weapon equipped.
2. Hold ZL and press Y.
3. While Link is still reaching for a weapon, press A to pick up the one on the ground.

Turn off the Earthwake technique first if you have it, or press R instead of Y. The trick ends when the shield or weapon is unequipped.

See Hyrule through Link's eyes, with no on-screen display. You need Mineru's Construct and at least one material.

1. Ride Mineru's Construct and pause the game.
2. Dismiss the Construct from the pause menu, then watch a Memory from the Adventure Log.
3. Hold up a material, then watch another Memory.
4. Unpause. Now when you use the scope or camera, you'll see the world from Link's point of view with no display.

Walk around Gerudo Town shirtless or in the Yiga Clan outfit without getting thrown out.

1. Inside Gerudo Town, pause the game and put on the outfit that would normally get Link in trouble.
2. Without unpausing, watch a Memory.
3. Change back into an allowed outfit, then unpause.

Reloading a save ends the glitch, and the guards at the gates will still catch you on the way in or out.
