Requirements

  • Zora Mask

Instructions

  1. Perform the Shallow Zora glitch next to the main boat dock in the southern swamp. Link should be right next to the dock, as if he were going to climb on top of it.
  2. The button icons should say "swim" and "dive". Quickly and repeatedly press B, and while you're doing so, press the C button the Zora mask is assigned to only once. The B button icon should fade and go blank. Link should not take off the mask. If he does, start over at step one.
  3. Climb up onto the boat dock. Now, Zora Link will run in place if you try to move him normally. To move him around, face him in the direction you want him to go, and use his B attack to move forward.
  4. Hold Z/L and either backflip, sidehop, or forward attack. Simply rolling forward will not cause a lockup.

Result

Zora Link will freeze in one place and his animation will be frozen. You may be able to put up his shield. Other than this, you can't do anything with Link. The pause menu, however, works just fine. You can even swap out the Zora mask for another C item. Normally you can't swap out a mask Link is currently wearing. To get out of this, you'll have to reset.

Notes

The procedure for this glitch is essentially the same as the Day Reset glitch that uses the Zora mask. However, backflipping, sidehopping, or doing forward attacks while performing the Day Reset glitch can cause this lockup.
