I suggest pages are made for the Stick and Nut upgrades, or, if pages containing such relevant information already exist, simply having the relevant keywords on the page be links to them.

Particularly the nut upgrades, as many people miss them. It would also be a good bonus to officially confirm here on Zelda Wiki what's true and what isn't as far as claims such as 1) once you're an Adult, you cannot get the second Deku Nut upgrade ever on that file even if you revert to child form, and 2).. I can't remember if there actually was gonna be a 2.

I have been playing a decent amount of OoT lately and may check up on this and take care of it within the next few days, but even if I don't, I feel someone should at some point.

EDIT: This could be accomplished by adding new sections to the pages for Deku Nuts and Deku Sticks, respectively, which would then be linked to from the page regarding this discussion, for examples http://www.zeldawiki.org/Defense_Upgrade and http://www.zeldawiki.org/Tunic#Zora_Tunic being linked to with a # marker when a user browsing the Ocarina of Time items and upgrades page clicks on either of those two upgrades to learn more about them and possibly their method of acquisition.

Should know, bro it's been taken care of.. Two years later, but late than never, right?

Much appreciated. Can't believe that's been missing from the article all this time. — Hylian King [*] 23:37, 25 March 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If this is showing items in Ocarina of Time, then why is there a Goron and Zora mask? Mindy 00:14, 20 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

They're optional items which can be borrowed from the Happy Mask Shop after selling the first four masks (Keaton, Skull, Spooky, and Bunny). There's also a Gerudo Mask. They don't function like in MM, instead only serving to elicit different responses from people. They're just in there for kicks and giggles, basically.User:Justin ZW/sig 00:19, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I forgot that. I get confused with MM and OOT a lot. Mindy 00:25, 20 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Wallets and Upgrades

The pictures are great, but I don't see why the wallets can't be added to the same scheme? Obviously they aren't inventory, but they are gear. The tunics are gear, the gauntlets are gear... We already have pictures for them, they can just direct them to the wallet section. Even if it was just a unified picture of all the wallets from smallets to largest and one link would be ok, it's just... Text at the bottom of the page is a little unappealing.--Smighty 03:40, 23 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Very true. I went ahead and added all the wallets, bomb bags, and quivers. I also added the Bullet Bags since the two upgraded versions each have their own color. We don't have images of them yet so I just put the placeholder for now. — Hylian King [*] 22:45, 23 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I haven't got the program to separate the items from their background but I can get some good screenshots of the missing items if need be. Also, if there's a page called the Mask Trading Sequence then perhaps some of the "other items" should be changed to that, as you cannot begin the sequence without the Weird Egg, Chicken and Zelda's Letter. Not sure if the Stone of Agony and Gerudo Token might be better suited in equipment.--Smighty 22:52, 23 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
The page is organized in a similar way to the in-game screens, which is why the Token and the Stone of Agony are placed where they are. The Stone of Agony might belong elsewhere, but the Token is definitely not "equipment." As for the Mask Trading Sequence, it depends on how you interpret it. The way the page makes it look, Zelda's Letter is a precursor to the sequence, not necessarily a part of it. Pretty sure the Weird Egg and the Chicken are just quest items and have no role in any trade sequence.
In any case, I don't really think it's a big deal how exactly we organize it as long as its decently coherent and everything is there. — Hylian King [*] 00:04, 24 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Fair enough, really the only reason I mention it is because you cannot get into the castle without the chicken/egg and the guard won't ask a favour without Zelda's Letter. I noticed the ingame menu scheme, but the bottom right is where these items are kept and they are often just ties to other quests. You can't get the Spirit Medallion without the Gerudo Token, but that doesn't mean they should be placed next to one another even they it occupies space in the Quest Subscreen. --Smighty 00:36, 24 April 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Shard of Agony

I think we should add the Shard of Agony to this page, but put a note that says it's only in Ocarina of Time 3D. Does anyone agree? --Person777 21:40, 31 May 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yep. Went ahead and added it. — Hylian King [*] 11:31, 1 June 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Images

Does anyone know if it is yet possible to rip the higher-definition models of the items from OoT 3D?KrytenKoro (talk) 19:44, 11 January 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Child and Adult Items

Does anyone have any ideas for a good way to indicate which items and equipment are Adult Link only, which items are Child Link only, and which can be used by both? Personally, I think the "both" items should be as they are now, but something needs to be added to differentiate Child- and Adult-only items. -- FLambda (talk) 05:21, 25 December 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I noticed the Template:Exp Game template in use on the page, and realized that a similar template would work well for this. So, I created the Template:OoTTimeFrame template mimicking its style. -- FLambda (talk) 06:17, 25 December 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I just split both eras with tabs, so the template is no longer necessary. - Chuck * (Talk) 02:46, 7 March 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
