| − | ==''Master Quest''== |
||
| − | The dungeon has many strange changes in the {{MQ}} version of the game. Instead of uvula-like switches on the ceilings of Jabu Jabu's intestinal tract, now cow head switches that are attached to walls operate the opening of doors. As far as enemies go, [[Lizalfos]] and [[Like Like]]s were added to several rooms, the [[Parasitic Tentacle]]s were dispersed evenly and in larger quantities throughout Jabu Jabu's insides, and invisible [[Keese]] were supplied to one room that includes an extra [[Gold Skulltula]]. Only three [[Tailpasaran]]s appear in an optional room with a Gold Skulltula, and [[Business Scrub]]s were deleted from the Master Quest version. In terms of items, the [[Map#Dungeon Map|Dungeon Map]], [[Compass]], and [[Boomerang]] can be obtained much earlier; the room that contained the Boomerang in the original version now contains the Compass, and vice versa. Other changes include the placement of a grown cow in a room, the addition of a water pillar in the suckhole room, and the presence of [[Bombchu]]s, used to complete various new puzzles throughout the dungeon. Princess Ruto is utilized much less as a gameplay mechanic, as she is only required to hit only one switch. |

Revision as of 14:54, 9 August 2016
Pony
Nit picky note. Epona was never, at any point, a pony. She was a baby, called a foal (the broad general term for baby horses) or a Filly (female foals). Ponies are fully grown even if they are under 14 hands. A pony can never grow into a horse. Template:Nosig
Palomino?
Would you consider Epona a palomino? Given her brown coat and white mane? Template:Nosig
Princess of Hyrule
I think there's a bit of a typo here. Since when is Epona's tittle "princess of hyrule"? Template:Nosig
Epona in The Minish Cap
