Usage Guide

Dungeon Prize Explanation

Sage Portraits

Sage Portraits (sometimes called Paintings) are the primary major collectible of the randomizer.

Irene	Impa	Oren	Gulley	Seres	Osfala	Rosso

You can configure how many must be collected with the following settings:

Setting	Range	Default	Specifies Requirement For
	0-7	7	Entering Lorule Castle's Front Door

Also, these Sages have an immediate effect on the game world when collected:

Sage	Effect
	Unlocks 3 checks: - Chamber of Sages - Thief Girl Cave - Final item in Ravio's Shop
	Causes the Dark Maze guards to disappear

If the Reverse Sage Events setting is enabled, these Sages will also have an effect when collected:

Sage	Effect
	Unlocks the Shady Guy event and turning in the Smooth Gem.
	Unlocks the front door to Hyrule Castle.
	Unlocks the Irene check.
	Unlocks the Rosso's House's front door and the 2 checks inside.

Pendants of Virtue

The Pendants of Virtue are the secondary major collectible of the randomizer.

Pendant of Wisdom	Pendant of Power	Pendant of Courage

The Pendants of Power, Wisdom and Courage are needed to reach the Master Sword Pedestal, which is a single randomized item check.

You can configure the Pedestal option to configure which Pendants are needed as follows:

Name	Pendants	Description
Standard		Require all Pendants of Virtue.
Charmed		Require all Pendants, but allow the Charm to substitute for the Pendant of Courage.
Vanilla		As in the vanilla game, only require the Pendants of Power and Wisdom.

The Pendant of Courage is more complicated than most Zelda dungeon rewards, acting as a Progressive Item that works as follows:

Name	Pendant	Notes
Charm		The first Green Pendant collected will be the Charm, a special item Link receives from Zelda that he does not realize is the Pendant of Courage. The Charm is not the Pendant of Courage, and does not unlock anything by itself. The Charm's vanilla location is considered a dungeon prize location, meaning any Sage Portrait or Pendant can spawn on Zelda's Throne in Hyrule Castle.
Pendant of Courage		The second Green Pendant collected will upgrade the Charm to the Pendant of Courage. Opens: - The door to the Inside Hyrule Castle dungeon - Rosso's House's front door Unlocks 4 checks: - Wildlife Clearing Stump - Irene* - Rosso* - Rosso Rocks* *Unless the Reverse Sage Events setting is enabled.

Location Color Codes

This tracker follows EmoTracker's standard color scheme for its locations:

Color	Description
🟩 Normal	All sections of this location are reachable with the current equipment and logic settings.
🟨 Sequence Break	All sections of this location are reachable with the current equipment, but at least one section requires a glitch or trick that is outside the current logic settings.
🟦 Inspect	The sections of this location are not reachable with the current equipment, but the items they contain can be seen or otherwise discerned.
🟧 Partial	This location contains a combination of sections, consisting of either: Reachable sections (🟩 Normal, 🟨 Sequence Break) and unreachable sections (🟦 Inspect, 🟥 None) 🟦 Inspect sections and 🟥 None sections
🟥 None	No sections of this location are reachable by any means with the current equipment.
⬛ Cleared	This location and all of its sections have been marked as cleared by the user.

• Be aware that 🟨 Sequence Break locations may contain fully reachable 🟩 Normal sections inside them.
• Currently, the 🟦 Inspect locations are of limited value as the randomizer does not replace most freestanding models yet.
• The 🟥 None and ⬛ Cleared locations are only visible if Show All Locations is enabled (toggle this with F11).

Color Blind Support

• EmoTracker supports customizing the above location colors, see the guide on the official EmoTracker Discord .

Logic Modes

The randomizer supports five* Logic Modes, and so does this tracker. You can select the mode matching your seed in the settings panel in the bottom left of the tracker.

Mode	Description
	Standard gameplay, no tricky item use or glitches.
	Adds tricks that aren't technically glitches. Lamp + Net considered as weapons. No glitches.
	Includes the above plus "basic", easy-to-learn glitches.
	Includes the above plus "advanced" glitches that may be a challenge to master.
	Includes every known RTA-viable glitch, including the insane ones. Note that the Bee Badge is omitted from the item pool in this mode, to preserve the infamous Bee Boosting trick.

Raising the Logic Mode to higher difficulties will cause 🟨 Sequence Break sections to become 🟩 Normal as they enter logic.

(*) A sixth Logic Mode, No Logic, is also available in the randomizer. Players wishing to tracker their progress while playing without logic should select the Glitched (Hell) Logic Mode, which already maximally describes available checks.

Swordless Mode

Right-click the base Sword item to tell the tracker you're playing in Swordless Mode, which slightly changes the logic:

• The Barrier around Hyrule Castle will be removed, allowing access without the Master Sword.
• Zelda and the Triforce will require the Net to access, even on the Normal Logic Mode.

Minigames

You can tell the tracker whether you've Enabled or Disabled Minigames down in the Settings panel. Disabling Minigames will hide their checks on the tracker.

The following checks are hidden when Minigames are Disabled:

• Cucco Minigame
• Hyrule Hotfoot
• Octoball Derby
• Rupee Rush (Hyrule)
• Rupee Rush (Lorule)
• Treacherous Tower

Note that the 2 Maiamai located inside the Rupee Rush minigames will not be hidden.

Lorule Castle Trials

This setting tells the tracker whether the option to skip the Lorule Castle Trials was selected in the randomizer. This setting slightly alters the logic needed to reach the Final Boss fight, as the player won't need to complete the trials.

Dark Room Lamp Requirement

This setting determines whether the logic considers the Lamp as a necessary item to cross dark rooms.

If the Lamp is needed, then checks the player would be able to obtain if they crossed a dark room with no light source will appear as 🟨 Sequence Breaks. This is because the setting puts them out of logic, but they are still technically obtainable as the Lamp is not a hard requirement.

Similarly, if the Lamp is not required, then those same checks will appear 🟩 Normal, as the setting places them in logic, and the seed may require the player to cross a dark room with no light source.

Display Bee Boost Glitches

Turn this setting on to show 🟨 Sequence Break checks that require using the Bee Boost glitch.

Checks requiring the Bee Boost glitch are hidden by default given the trick's extreme terribleness.

Note: This setting will be ignored if the Glitched (Hell) Logic Mode is selected, as they would then be in logic.

Maiamai Map

This setting toggles the visibility of the Maiamai checks.
