The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Secrets




Lost Legends and Spinoffs


The Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess- 2006 GCN, Wii
When an evil darkness enshrouds the land of Hyrule, a young farm boy named Link must awaken the hero — and the animal — within. When Link travels to the Twilight Realm, he transforms into a wolf and must scour the land with the help of a mysterious girl named Midna. Besides his trusty sword and shield, Link will use his bow and arrows by aiming with the Wii Remote controller, fight while on horseback and use a wealth of other items, both new and old.

54. In the southwest room on the second floor, the entire floor will be covered in ice. Use the Ball and Chain to break the ice blocks to the west, and this Poe will appear.
Temple of Time
55. On the third floor, go to the large round room. The Poe will be on the other side of a gate to the east; use the Dominion Rod and move one of the metal pots on the high ledge behind the gate and onto the floor switch. When the gate opens, become a wolf and get the Poe.
56. On the seventh floor, go to the room with the two balances. Toss both of the metal pots to the left balance, then drop down to the lower area and head up the stairs again. Use the Dominion Rod to pull another metal pot off the top shelf, then throw it onto the right balance and onward to the left one. Since the right balance will be high enough, use the Clawshot above the middle area to reach the high middle platform. Walk to the east wall and use the Spinner to ride around the room to the western ledge. Turn into a wolf there and you will find the Poe floating around.
57. In the area before the temple itself (where the Master Sword pedestal is), go to the south room by the stairs. In the southeast corner, use the Dominion Rod to move the statue in the wall. The Poe is hiding there.
Upper Zora's River
58. On the land mass to the south, between two river forks, you will find this Poe floating at the top of the hill.
Zora's Domain
59. At the bottom of the waterfall, get to the western platform. Run all the way to the top of the hill there to find the Poe.
60. From the bottom of the waterfall, get to the eastern ledge by the entrance to Snowpeak. As a wolf, jump up the first ledge and go north. Use Midna to get across another ledge, then when you get behind the waterfall, you should see the Poe floating around.


Howling Stone #1
Location: N/A
Golden Wolf Location: Forest Temple Entrance
Song: N/A
There is no Howling Stone for the first skill -- Ending Blow. It is automatic and essential to the game. You'll talk to the Hero's Spirit right before the first temple.
Howling Stone #2
Location: Death Mountain
Golden Wolf Location: Ordon Spring
Song: Song of Healing -- Majora's Mask
The location of the second Howling Stone is on the trail up Death Mountain. While traverising the path, you'll come across it on a bunch of rocky platforms with geysers all around it. It's the first large area in the narrow path.
Howling Stone #3
Location: Upper Zora River
Golden Wolf Location: Eastern Entrance to Hyrule Castle Town
Song: Oath to Order -- Majora's Mask
The third Howling Stone is located in the upper portion of Lake Hylia, closest to Zora's Domain. It is near Iza's cabin on a small cliff overlooking the river and obtainable when the water is returned to the lake.
Howling Stone #4
Location: Lake Hylia
Golden Wolf Location: Gerudo Desert
Song: Nocturne of Shadow -- Ocarina of Time
The location of this stone is found near the tower where you first meet Auru. It is in the southernmost part of Lake Hylia nearest to the Gerudo Desert. You'll need to be able to transform in your wolf form at will, though, because it requires both forms to access it.
Howling Stone #5
Location: Sacred Grove
Golden Wolf Location: Southern Entrance to Hyrule Castle Town
Song: Prelude to Light -- Ocarina of Time
The location of the fifth howling stone is right outside of the entrance to the Sacred Grove, shortly after you jump across the gaps with the wooden logs swinging back and forth.
Howling Stone #6
Location: Snowpeak Trail
Golden Wolf Location: Kakariko Village Graveyard
This is found along the climb up Snowpeak mountain. It is near the top of the mountain right outside of the cave you enter. It's on a ledge that hangs over the mountain and is pretty hard to miss.
Howling Stone #7
Location: Hidden Village
Golden Wolf Location: Entrance to Hyrule Castle
The last Howling Stone is located behind the building to the right in the Hidden Village -- the place with Impaz and where you shoot the bandits near the Bridge of Eldin. Once you have found this stone, you'll have located them all!

Hidden Skill #1 -- Ending Blow
The first hidden skill that Link learns is the Ending Blow. To perform this technique, you press the A button after you have knocked an enemy onto the ground. Link will jump into the air and bring his blade down into the enemy's stomach, netting him an instant kill. This is very effective for beating a stronger enemy once you've knocked him back.
Hidden Skill #2 -- Shield Attack
The second hidden skill that Link learns is the Shield Attack. This essentially allows Link to knock an enemy senseless with his shield, which breaks their guard and creates an opening for Link to strike. To perform this technique, you simply flick the nunchuk part of the controller forward. It's not 100%, but it will oftentimes break the guard of enemies.
Hidden Skill #3 -- Back Slice
The third hidden skill that Link learns is the Back Slice. Perhaps the most effective -- and most used -- technique of them all. To perform the Back Slice, you jump to the side, while Z-Targeting, twice. Link will jump like he's dodging the first time and then roll behind his opponent the second. When he rolls behind the enemy, shake the Wii Remote like a typical sword slash to connect a devastating back slice. It's effective in removing attached armor or getting in front of an enemy that has his bases covered in the front.
Hidden Skill #4 -- Helm Splitter
The fourth hidden skill that Link learns is the Helm Splitter. This technique will allow Link to jump into the air and split the helmet -- or head -- of his enemy. This is a two part technique in that it uses the Shield Attack to setup for this. First, you break the guard and the senses of the enemy with the Shield Attack and, while their dazed, follow through with a Helm Splitter by pressing the A button. Very effective for removing helmets or taking enemies out from the top down.
Hidden Skill #5 -- Mortal Draw
The fifth hidden skill that Link learns is the Mortal Draw. To perform this techique you do NOT Z-Target the enemy, but get within their range. Link will then put his hand on the hilt of his *sheathed* sword, which will bring up a command on the bottom of the screen prompting you to press A. When you do, Link will quickly unsheathe his sword and deliver a take that instantly kills the enemy. It's dangerous because it puts you at risk of getting hit first, but the results are well worth the risk.
Hidden Skill #6 -- Jump Strike
The sixth hidden skill that Link learns is the Jump Strike. This attack requires that Link charge up his blade, a chime similar to that when you're able to perform a second Spin Attack will signify the charge is complete. When the attack is fully charged, Link will jump into the air, swing his sword horizontally, then vertically, and finally slam into the ground creating a huge shockwave. This attack is primarily useful for taking out multiple enemies around you, both on air and on ground.
Hidden Skill #7 -- Great Spin
The final hidden skill that Link learns is the Great Spin. The most powerful and most useful technique, it is an upgrade to the standard Spin Attack. You're only capable of performing this when you have full hearts -- a throwback to the 2D Zelda games when you had to have full health to perform a blast from your sword. When you perform the technique, Link will let loose a much more powerful, much larger form of the Spin Attack. It will often take out enemies in one hit.
