Ocarina of Time Miscellaneous Glitches - Equipped Climber
From ZeldaChaos
Running at the ladder with Link's shield up.
Link is posed as though he was running forward with his shield up, but one of his legs is raised as if stepping onto the ladder.
The glitch done "backwards" from the top of the ladder. Link is posed as though he were running forward with his shield up, but his legs are bent as if he were climbing down the ladder.
Instructions
- Find a ladder.
- Stand in front of the ladder and take out your sword (you need to have a shield equipped, and it needs to be the Deku Shield if you're doing this as Child Link).
- Press and hold Z, then R.
- While still holding both buttons, walk into the ladder.
Result
You will hover up one rung of the ladder. At this point you'll become stuck, and as long as you hold R, you'll stay this way. If you release R, you'll go into the normal climbing position and you can climb up or down the ladder.
You can also do this from the top of a ladder, but you have to press Z and R as Link begins the "climbing onto ladder" animation.
This can also be done on vines, climbable walls, etc., but you need to press Z and R just as Link begins to climb.
