Damage Buffering

Farore's Wind Method

Discovered by CloudMax (OoT64 Ocarina method discovered by Acryte)

Using farore's wind and a bomb, you can buffer damage in order to lower your health quickly. Buffering effectively multiplies the damage done by the attack. This is useful for causing a death in order to deathwarp to the entrance of a dungeon.

  1. Set a farore's wind warp point
  2. Drop a bomb near you
  3. Right as it's about to explode, press farore's wind
  4. Press exit to remove the menu and then quickly re-press the farore's wind button (you will take 1/2 heart of damage every time you close the menu as the explosion is happening), repeat until you're at your desired health

Bottled Item Method

By catching or releasing a bottled item just a bomb explodes, you will get an extra time by the bomb. This can be used to take multiple hits, but is more difficult and slower than the Farore's Wind Method
