Savage Labyrinth

The Savage Labyrinth is a mini-dungeon in The Wind Waker.

Entrance to the Labyrinth
The place is located on a cliff on the far east side of Outset Island and can be accessed by a Deku Leaf and the Power Bracelets (to remove the Stone Head covering the entrance), or with the Hookshot. In this labyrinth, there are fifty-one floors, each with enemies that get more difficult the further you descend into its depths.

Themes and Navigation
The Savage Labyrinth is a hidden cave that Link must enter to obtain a Triforce Chart. The chart is located on floor thirty-one. To move on past that floor, the Mirror Shield is required, although moving on is completely optional. Floors beyond thirty-one are far more difficult and were made to provide a challenge for the more skilled players. The only recovery items are at every tenth floor. Also foes do not drop items of any kind. However, hearts, rupees, arrows, bombs, and spoils can be stolen from opponents with the Grappling Hook. A Piece of Heart is the reward for completing the labyrinth.

The Savage Labyrinth is made more difficult after completion. After obtaining the Piece of Heart, several more enemies are added to many floors. Most significantly, there are many more Darknuts than the first time. This makes floor fifty very difficult to beat.

Trivia

 * The Savage Labyrinth plays a similar role as the Cave of Ordeals of Twilight Princess, only unlike its Twilight Princess counterpart, it is necessary to beat at least the first thirty floors of the labyrinth to advance in the game. It also resembles the Take 'Em All On Game from Spirit Tracks.
