All aboard the Honkai: Star Rail! Download here: hoyo.link/c7RmCOAd Stay tuned for Part 2 where we cover even more glitches and tricks that have been found. And just like the last video, a FAQ is further down in this comment that I will update: Q) What version was this on? A) The glitches shown works on version 1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1 - Unfortunately 1.1.2 Patched these glitches. Research is being put it to see if a new setup on 1.1.2 works atm. Q) I am struggling with the Weapon Duplication, any advice? A) The thing's that you can try to do differently are: Swap the weapon you are trying to duplicate/transfer over, change what is fused to it, or drop the 2nd weapon after the unpause/pause, then load the save. If neither of these things work, you're timing is simply off and you can try to either be faster, or slightly slower on the pauses. Q) I can't get the Weapon to drop into the corridor, any advice? A) First, make sure the position is correct. You want to be roughly at the height I am at in the video, and at that position. You can try to use a different rock setup if you cannot get it with mine, the rocks are not important to the setup, only the position value is. So if using a different lineup let's you have about the same height and position, that works too. This is just what I found to be the most consistent. I have also heard that certain people switched the type of weapon that they were using, and then it fell into the right spot and not out of bounds, so you can also try that. Q) I did the Zuggle Glitch but I lost my fuse after leaving the Shrine, any idea? A) We are not 100% sure about this one, I was able to leave the shrine just fine, certain other people also were, while some people said it lost their fuse. My guess is something related to how the game loads or unloads the "donation weapon" on the ground that we used to fuse the Master Sword, or something with Shrines, or what is equipped when you leave? Some people have said that after fusing the Master Sword, before leaving the shrine, that saving, returning to main menu, then reloading the save makes it permanent. Like it said, this one is a bit more strange. You should never lose the inf durability Master Sword, but fusing things to it seems to be a bit strange.
for anyone having trouble on getting the timing for the weapon transfers: when you unpause and pause again, make sure you are not pausing *too* fast. the timeframe for pausing again starts when the weapon *appears* after dropping it. if you unpause and pause again, and don't see the weapon behind link, then it won't work and you need to try again.
I know a fair bit about programming (not from a game dev perspective though) so it's also fascinating to theory craft about why this kinda stuff breaks... Given that pausing and unpausing seems to be core to most of these glitches, my guess is that the different steps of moving items around/dropping them/etc happen on different frames and you're able to interrupt those processes, much like a database going offline halfway through a transaction
One thing I’ve noticed playing this game, the menu for loading prebuilt structures actually takes enough time to load to swap into another power. I’ve once swapped to ultra hand before the menu popped up. I quit out before I could fool around in it but I feel like something weird might come from it.
I got into ultrahand before the menu loaded. When I select a structure it would exit to me using the ultrahand ability. id be surprised if there was a glitch coming from this
@@radsammyt2238 You'd be surprised by how often glitches occur due to menu layering - That was the entire basis of like, MOST Fallout 4 duplication/infinite resources/similar glitches. On your power wheel is quite a few things that open menus, like the map, the amiibo one, etc. I wouldn't be overly surprised if there was something you could do there.
Seems like even if you get it frame perfect (Prebuilt UI shows up while the rune wheel shows up), the new rune will override the Prebuilt UI, havent tried it enough times since I have little patience, but I hope this goes somewhere.
@@Lunacy4 Kind of creates a paradox since Link probably would have died if the master sword didn't take the brunt of the damage during the first encounter with Ganon.
@@jordanbtucker Well it still creates a paradox since if Link does die he can't be there to go back in time and steal the Master Sword from his past self. Thus creating a paradox.
or more or less just a take some of the pains out. We all have those moments were we just need a good weapon and are screwed with out it. Mining in the depths break all your weapons run into an Obsidian Frox welp guess I will just die.
Just a little tidbit for anyone having trouble getting the Master sword to respawn in your auto save(the shrine save), it is possible to pause and unpause too fast, I have noticed that whenever I got the sword to drop vertically behind link it would respawn but if I did it too fast the master sword would be at a diagonal angle and it would never respawn in the shrine.
So im guessed its the same thing for making the other weapon spawn in the castle, so basically I spent 5 hours trying to get my pause/unpause to be as fast as possible but it NEVER worked because I was TOO fast? I'll take it as a compliment thanks
Its really simple, just make sure that the weapon actually drops when you press start the second time, it took me a fee tries but I saw it spawn under the ground in the past, make sure to get as HIGH as possible and run towards it and mash A
Just did this and wanted to add an addendum If you zuggle the MsgNotFound sword you'll notice you will have the glitched version and the regular version. Dropping the regular version will "break" the glitched one, turning it back into the regular one, from my experience.
I think there may be other conditions that cause the msgnotfound sword to lose its fused upgrade as well. I just redid it and it reset back to 30 after doing some amiibo and open chests and dropping a weapon to make room for chest weapon. 🤷♂️
also, at least for me on 1.1.0, if i do it exactly as linkus said, the fused master sword will show the increased dmg in inventory but the ingame visual of the sword is normal and as soon as the other weapon that you leave on the ground despawns (either by going too far away or teleporting away) the sword reverts to 30 dmg. The solution to that, that i found is just saving and reloading the game after you picked up the fused master sword, after reloading the weapon on the ground will be gone and your master sword should still have the buffed damage and show the visuals of whatever monster part you fused when you pull it out
@@sengklinge This does "fix it" but this glitch is extremely weird. The game doesn't seem to know what the base of the weapon is, almost as if the pointer is defaulting to something else in your inventory because when I reloaded, it said the base was "fuse attack power" which makes no sense but when I hovered over something else in the inventory, it immediately copied that base and it now says Gerudo Claymore.
At least this game is super broken in a way that will never affect a casual gameplay, and only if you know exactly what you're doing (unlike literally every other big game to come out this year)
@@dadtronic You're sure about that? There are 3 layers including the Depths (the size and magnitude of the underground shocked me, as it was not really highlighted in trailers nor marketing material) , so stack the explorable area, then add the numerous new caves around the world. Plus, it's not just size of the map. Even on the Hyrule layer with reused assets, TotK seems to be populated with way more "stuff" and distractions than BotW - so it's not just empty open space. The new game mechanics and physics are interacting with the terrain in interesting ways as well. Then there are 152 (?) shrines and the interiors of some can magically sprawl out to be huge city blocks by themselves. Then add the multi-floor Hyrule Castle and 4 Temples. The game feels like a super MASSIVE black hole of a timesuck - way bigger than PS Spider-Man and Miles Morales, which both take place in Manhattan. I've dropped 100+ hours on TotK and feel like I have only scratched the surface.
This is why , in a single player game, I wish they would not fix fun glitches that ninety-nine percent of casual players are not going to find without searching. Whistle sprinting was probably the most likely one people would find.
When your doing the master sword glitch you can also save inside the shrine and use the autosave that happens after you beat the bats that attack you it works just about the same as doing it the way your doing it. It is also removes the risk of losing your main save if the game decides to autosave a lot during the new game.
I believe the game won’t overwrite saves from after the one it’s trying to make, so you can set the time ahead, get an auto save, and then set the time back so the game will think it’s got an auto save already made as it’s ahead of time. BotW was like this, you could use it to make protected auto saves during big glitches that require manual saves.
If someone has trouble transferring a weapon to the start of the game, try to ultrahand 2 boulders on each other instead of 1 boulder and 1 stone. You get more height by doing so, making it easier for the weapon to spawn.
And here I thought I was fucking up. He needed to clarify the differences for versions of there is any like that. I spent i shit you not the past 40 minutes trying. I read this comment and did it first try.
Far too many variables to keep track of for it not to be. The more moving parts the more likely it is to break and once it breaks there is likely to be a huge fucking chain of breaks.
@@Grimeaper eh I think it's more because the hardware and the engine couldn't bug test everything and the switch is kinda Trash sometimes rivals the ps1 in graphics sometimes
@@Raddish-IS-Radd Eh... Hardware is just there to run the software and other stuff it is not really easy for it to be this type of buggy. This is more of a lot of moving parts, and a new engine that has not been worked out fully. I mean take Unreal its been around forever and it is absolute dog shit compared to this engine, though it is in general dogshit. It is fun to use though if you can use it. Hardware though would make it hard as hell to keep up with everything thus allow bugs to open up. It is very old, and Nintendo should think about erring on the side of caution and actually going closer to modern day next time so they have wriggle room big horse does not mean you doing it for graphics. You need it for other things as well and I hope TOTK shows them that you know it was possible to put this game out on it but barely so maybe we should allow breathing room next time. Hopefully, they make a truly limitless world. It is doable to make a map where you can go anywhere. As a dev me and mine coder have worked out two ways to do it for our game.
For anyone having issues with the duped sword and reverting damage; Save your game immediately after you pick up the fused master sword, and then reload. This will despawn the item you're discarding, Then, youll have a 30 dmg, and whatever you fused with. Drop (or keep) the 30, if drop, save and reload again, (to discard the duped sword) and then fast travel out. Your fused damage will stay. Edit: the fused item durability is *not* infinite for gibdo bone or ancient blade, they will still break after one hit, reverting your sword back to MsgNotFound
These are really cool glitches so far. Hopefully we get some cool movement glitches too. I want to see Link get launched across the map in crazy ways in this game as well.
Someone threw a spear, locked it with recall(?), connected a plank to the spear, once the spear went back, the insane rotational speed leverages the plank and catapults link.
Personally i am waiting for them to discover a way to whistle sprint as my god in the early game it would have been great to have instead of waiting for the stamina bar to recharge
An ultimate tip for anyone else not being able to transfer the first weapon to the start of the game, let’s go higher. I combined the three boulders forming a triangle and placed it diagonally where it’s shown on the video, then on top of that put the small rock to have somewhere to fit nicely as the video describes. Got it first try after this, hope it helps you too. ❤ Just imagine a pyramid of boulders with a stone at the top.
I love how breath of the wild was completly broken underneath the hood, and then they patched all of our glitches, only for us to find EVEN more powerful glitches. Still, I'm super excited for movement tech, that's what made breath of the wild speedruns cool.
This is pretty much the most important type of glitch to me. I don't want to trivialize the game too much giving myself some God powered weapon that doesn't break. But if I could save a few minutes by flipping myself into the sky with a piece of wood instead of finding some machine to build and drive then I don't mind doing that
@@Rain1already been found my friend. Throw a spear straight ahead, recall it. While it's recalling attach a log or plank, jump on. Don't end the recall. Enjoy.
@@Halosrighthand lol yeah I've been doing it but I haven't been able to get it very consistently. About everyone in five or so. I hope there is a stronger version of this eventually where it just sends you to the top of the map
@@Rain1 I've seen some pretty cool stabilizer builds, but those require a little more effort. Hope we can find something that's 2 buttons to go to the moon like windbombs
8:14 if you go right and break the pillar instead of going left and grabbing the small rock. You can grab a chest which if you flip upside-down is both a slightly higher platform when fused but also mostly stable ground. It seems to still slide link but it's way slower, to the point where it's almost unnoticeable
this, i just figured this out after an hour of trying this out, the chest seemed like the better solution in my head and it works better as it doesnt clip the weapon through the ground and it just appears in the hall
Linkus, me and my brother were playing and we discovered a new glitch! In the quest where you save the trumpet player from the hole, if you start climbing the wall before the screen goes dark, you will lose the ability to fall, and can only go up. Falling off of something just keeps your movement speed until you hit a new object on the same elevation if that makes sense. Kind of like the glitch where you pick up a bow and a pot and float, but much easier. If you start climbing again though, it gets disabled. Hope this helps!
use a weapon with a big hit box like a cobble crusher, works way more consistent (at least when i tried) edit: you can find a cobble crusher at the bokoblin camp with the one silver bokoblin and two black bokoblins at the bottom of death mountain (just head east from area with all the building stuff, it should be the first small camp on the outer edge of death mountain)
The one thing about the smuggled Master Sword is it doesn't seem to get the double damage bonus that the regular Master Sword gets against glooms enemies (i.e. most thing in the depths and Phantom Ganon) so it feels much better to just dupe the champion weapons or Royal stuff with Silver Lynel Blades for fighting anything stronger than a Black Bokoblin.
So, when pause+unpause+pause, I think you need to make sure you can see the item you dropped during the second pause. It only worked for me when I could see the weapon I dropped. Like, it has to be off your body. Sorry if my explanation sucks, might try to explain better in the morning
Something I will note, when you fuse the infinite master sword, make sure you don't have it equipped when you enter a loading screen. If it is equipped when doing so, will cause the sword to reset.
As u see in the video, the weapon is stuck in the wall for a second. Some weapons glitch out of the map instrad of inside. So be quick if you see the weapon and pick it up. Some weapons shape isnt very good for the Transfer in this position, so try different weapons. Also, u want to see the weapon u transfer behind ur back after u double + on that rock.
If anyone is having trouble with the weapon not dropping high enough in the corridor, I tried using the chest in the corner of the shrine instead of the small rock and its working really well
I have an answer for the Q) I did the Zuggle Glitch but I lost my fuse after leaving the Shrine, any idea? A) If you teleport to the same shrine in the overworld while inside the shrine, the Fuse will stay 100% of the time. Then save, and it will be permanent.
For those who are unsure if it's still possible to get the glitched master sword, I just managed to do it after a good number of attempts. The small Boulder is optional, and a spear works great as well.
I traded the small rock for a bigger boulder. Connected 2 big boulders and tilted them in a way that I would be slightly higher than if i used the small rock. Also I didn't slide off. My weapon kept appearing inside the steps in the other save - with video method. I thought, i probably need to get higher so my weapon appears above the steps. So it worked. Also I used quick ++ (as seen in video) despite what others in comments say.
@@Cheeseshredder after following what you said, and another comment about having the master sword be vertical to get it to your main, it helped so much. thanks man
@@schyth960 I hope you get it because I sat there for an hour frustrated that it wasn't working as described in video. Im very happy that I was finally able to solve my own problem. before giving up.
For anyone struggling with the sword clipping through the map, I advise just sticking two of the large boulders together, then position the boulders at an angle against the wall so link is higher up. (be warned the weapon may roll down the stairs into the cutscene door though)
Wow, that Master Sword glitch was so unbelievably easy! What a fantastic prize 😁 This will be super helpful. Thank you Linkus for the tutorial, and thank you Zelda glitch hunting community!
Anyone having trouble: make sure you are actually equipping a second weapon during the first step… I tried like 20 times to no avail, watched it again, equipped the second weapon, and it worked immediately. BTW Make sure you get high up because it will fall through the floor
I was waiting for this. I knew thiis would be absolutely crazy. I'm sure that you'll come up with some insane speedrun tactics for this game as time goes on, as well. Best of luck to you! :)
Thank you for the easy explained glitches and steps to reproduce them. The weapon transfer between saves was relatively easy to do but the fusing weapons glitch was a bit of trial & error, since both the position and the pause speed can screw it up. But after about 5 attempts I saw my master sword and the other weapon held at once and I knew I succeeded. Thank you! I now have an infinite durability 85 damage Silver Lynel Master Sword. :D
Finally got it to work. I went ONE step higher than you did on the dark staircase. I went to drop the Sword and when it was VERTICAL behind Link, I loaded the other save for the shrine. Lo and behold it was there, resting in the water.
What I love is the fact that the only way to get these glitches is if you are trying to get them. So there is no way you get them in a casual playthrough.
Guess i am one of the few who just simply like playing the games these days and have no need for all the glitches.....don't even know how I got to this video in the first place.... I don't really understand why they are always trying to find the glitches and then tell everyone about them in videos just so that those glitches will get patched.....
@@lpellett429usually the majority of glitch hunters do it for speedrunning purposes, hoping one of the glitches would shorten the time needed to beat the game.
when youre sending the master sword back to your main save make sure of 2 things 1- when you pause unpause make sure you can see the sword appear. if you pause too fast without it dropping then it wont worl 2- if it doesent transfer over its prob bc it gets stuck in the floor and noclips out. try jumping when you drop it in the new game so it spawns a little bit higher in your main save
after succesful zuggle, you have to immediately save and return to title screen and reload that save, you should be able to fast travel or leave shrines without losing fuse item damage buff
To anyone having trouble, it worked for me by being closer to the archway and facing the camera. For some reason it didn't work for me until I faced the camera
Nope, it's 100% safe. That's why I used my main file, and in the steps I go over how the saves work because I understand people can be paranoid to lose their save. The instructions contains safety saves along the way and in-depths instructions so should'nt be an issue.
You can still pick up the item you drop for fusing the fake master sword. Once you dropped the fused sword and weapon, you can pick up the other weapon FIRST, then pick up the master sword. I found that it works more often if you do use it, and gives the master sword a cool effect of what item you used
Can I ask how you left the shrine? I can get the monster part to attach to the master sword and it has the high damage numbers and everything like in the video but when I leave the shrine it goes back to normal and I lose the monster part…
@@royalet7982 Check if you have a duplicate Master Sword in your inventory. I noticed that happened to me too. Just drop the non-fused duplicate before you leave and you should be fine.
Quick note when you fuse a item the glitch master sword with zuggle don't leave the shrine, from the door otherwise it will unfuse warp to somewhere like another shrine or Lookout landing, or any fast travel point to be exact and it will keep the item fused to it entering a shrine will unfuse it so keep that in mind, you won't be able to get more hearts for stamina containers because you can't get more lights of blessing😊
I followed the instructions and everything worked as intended, until I left the shrine. At that point I had 2 msgnotfound in my inventory, both not fused, and was missing the original stick and lynel horn.
Figured out that you need to switch out the master sword in your inventory so the stick no longer thinks its fused to the same item as the master sword. Then you will have one glitched version and one normal version of the master sword. You shouldn't drop the normal version until after you have gone through a loading screen (exiting the shrine or teleporting) you can also perform the same glitch on the "normal" one again to get another fused master sword. Useful if you want a blade and a club.
People saying ToTK is broken, but I’d like to applaud the amount of easy glitches that all have practical uses. It almost feels intentional how polished the game feels outside of these very convoluted but useful bugs, just like BoTW. It’s awesome how these bugs are complex enough that you would find little to no bugs as severe playing the game normally, but easy enough to practically do avoid certain painful features. I got most of my postgame playtime in BoTW abusing bugs and it looks like this game will be just as fun!
Most unique dropable weapons are instantly spit out by the octos, like the demon weapons, Champion Relics etc.. and since the MSGNotFound is TECHNICALLY a Master Sword, I doubt it would work :P
These are the harmless and often hilarious kind of glitches that I want in a video game, cause after 60+ hours of gameplay and beating the game, I didn't encounter any bugs that affected my playthrough. You really have to go out of your way to replicate these bugs, which is why they feel more like little easter eggs than actual bugs.
I can't even. I now have a Gleeok Frost Horn on an unbreakable 60 damage sword that can both cut trees and mine ore-and it only took around 30 minutes! I'm going to enjoy this "mod" until they patch it out. Thank you, Linkus!
after performing zuggle, try hard saving and reloading that save inside the shrine. that worked for me. also, make sure you don't have any duplicate MsgNotFounds in your inventory.
Kinda cringe you can’t fuse msgnotfound to anything tho without glitches Edit: just remembered that the master sword does a *BONK* to specter ganon (the guy that spawns after killing the gloom hands, the name in Italian is spettro ganon which when translated to English is specter ganon so sorry if I got the name wrong) and thus probably does 2x dmg so am gonna check if the msgnotfound sword does the same
Woooot, infinite sword with light dragon horn. Never breaks, and it restores 1 HP on each hit. Super handy for exploring without having to worry about resource management.
Interesting that after fusing at 17:11 it still says unter Master Sword: [30] Gnarled Long Stick + [37] Silver Boss Bokoblin Horn So it got the damage value [30] from the Master Sword but kept the name of the Gnarled Long Stick. Amazing what technology can do these days.
For anyone wondering both glitches still work in 1.1.1 but the dupe is slightly different. You need to do it as normal but after pausing/unpausing you need to drop the second item as well and then equip a third item so you need to dupe two weapons into the start to get the msgnotfound
@fecalmatter128 ok so you're going to follow his route exactly until you get to the weapon dupe parts. Everything other than the dupe glitch is exactly the same. When you get to the first dupe to get the weapon in to the start of the game you need to do the glitch he shows but instead of loading the manual save after the pause/unpause you want to drop the second weapon you equipped and then equip another weapon. Then you go to the manual save and pick up the weapon. Manual save again and go back to the shrine and repeat to get a second weapon in. Now you do the normal setup to get the mastersword but with the altered dupe glitch
Tips on weapon duping from my personal experience Stand with link facing the side of the camera -- the weapon drops behind him, so this makes it easier to see whats happening. You want to unpause then pause again right when the weapon apepars behind him. After you pause again, if you cant see the weapon or if its partially transparent, you paused too fast. If the weapon has started to fall even slightly (hard to tell when facing forward, but MUCH easier to see when facing the side) you paused too late. Obviously this is all too fast for reaction speed, but after using that to judge myself, i can rpetty reliably get a succesful dupe in 2-3 attempts (plus it helps me not have to waste time loading on failed attempts)
One issue I notice is after I infuse the MSG Master Sword with the Zuggle glitch, is that if I fast travel or go too far from the Stick used in the infusion glitch, the infusion wears off and the MSG reverts to its unfused state
That did indeed lock the effect into the weapon. Its now infused with a Frost Gleeok horn and properly persists between loading zones. Thank you very much for the assistance!
I may give this master sword a shot. I do not mind durability too much, but it is as a pain as it is in the original to me. I just hope I do not fail too hard at it with my fat fingers. Practice weapon duplication first and see how that feels. I already use the Yiga special move for mining because I am tired of running out of weapons in the depth lol. Always end up with like a stick or two left and then bam Obsidian Frox or whatever up my ass. Can't wait for the movement tutorials. I want to sweep the sky islands before too long. I can use machines but they do not always work sometimes lol. I may do both. Hope you find a way to clone a stack of items at once lol. One diamond at a time for a few rupees is a pain, or for some bomb flowers.
Because there no doubt will be an issue with someone else in the future, here is how it worked when i tried, in case it helps. 1: you have to repause before the weapon appears behind link. So repause as fast as you can. 2: you have to drop the second weapon you equipped after repausing. This was pointed out by someone else I think.
@@teddy-jameslambert1514 because it forces you to think on the fly, and come up with unique solutions to problems which you would have otherwise solved with the exact same sword every single time.
If you are struggling cloning weapons from one to another save file: it is possible to pause and unpause to fast. Someone already wrote that but what I also realized is, that if you pause too fast you won‘t see the dropped weapon in the blurred gameplay background, so check if you can see it, if not you are too fast. I was struggling for around an hour 🥲
I was having trouble with the master sword smuggle and learned it seems to be possible to double pause too quick and also fusing two double handed swords (cobble crusher to a royal claymore) helped me pick up the sword even with imperfect alignment
As a tip, once you are pausing and u pausing with the master sword at 11:05, if you see that the master sword is perpendicular instead of diagonal, you did it correct and can move on. If not, unpause the game, pick up the master sword, and retry.
9:25 something about this, if you see that the weapon appears behind you when you repause sometimes it won't work, for a 100% chance that it will work you would not want the weapon to appear in the world
fun fact face is sperate because face has the shape keys and at around 30k+ poly's it's best to split mesh for performance with skinned mesh rendering using shape keys
*****If your zuggled “msg not found” is duplicating and losing it’s power when walking out of the shrine, redo the zuggle, make a manual save inside of the shrine then reload the save. You’ll be able to leave with both a duped “msg not found” and a fused “msg not found”
I can confirm that at the time of writing it does still work. It took me quite a few tries to get the weapon into the intro sequence, and then a few tries to get the msgnotfound to the shrine. But it does work. Stand correctly and time it correctly (version 1.1.1)
i remember being in the speedrun server when zuggle was discovered, it was that popular we had to make a thread to talk about zuggle because it was flooding the chat and people couldnt talk about any other glitches lol
So, extra safety tip. If you have NSO, upload your save data to the cloud before trying, and then disable auto-backups. This way even if absolutely everything goes wrong, and somehow you go through 5 save files in autosaves because your dog stole your controller and ran out the door with it and it got stolen by the neighbor kid who was then hit by a bus.... You'll still have your original save data to revert back to.
It worked but I had to make a save when I got the sword merged then kept walking out of the shrine and re loading until it stayed merged when I spawned outside. It took me 3 tries but so far it’s still merged. I haven’t switched weapons tho
So I have 5 master swords now all different fusions for fun. 1 thing I had to do every time was save before I left the room so when I spawned outside of the shrine if fusion was gone I could just re load until it stayed. Don’t merge the ancient blade it will only last 3 hits on anything. It’s one of the only materials that is breakable on the MsgNotFound I also tried stacking fusions on the master sword but it doesn’t work. Seems like you can only merge 1 item with the current glitch until someone finds a way.
ok I now spent some time and did not get the weapon to spawn in the past. I did some testing and it worked for me when i turned around and stepped away from the wall so i can drop weapons, because the weapon gets dropped behind the modell of the character. doing that it dropped way closer and higher to the wall...
if you could quickly explain how to do that i would greatly appreciate it. i’m just worried about this fucking up story elements (not sure if the master sword is involved but if it is… yknow)
@@rollinburket off the top of my head, turn automatic backups off, then back up your save manually in the system settings. Then if something goes wrong somewhere in the settings there will be an option to overwrite your local console save with the one you put on the cloud earlier.
On attempt 30. Starting to think it’s been patched. I need some help. I’ve tried this numerous times, using a Boulder hammer, then a Zora spear with a log. My timing is right, I’ve gotten the item duplication right, but it’s just not spawning in the intro. WTF am I missing? Got it. Had to use 2 big boulders, the had to make sure I dropped my 2nd weapon in the intro.
Very well done guide, thanks! I will say though, your method with the small rock didn't work for me. So what I did was Fuse the two boulders THEN I fused the small rock on top of the boulder closest to the wall. That gave me more height and the dropped weapon spawned as normal. Your method, for me, made it spawn inside the rock on the stairs, so I couldn't pick it up 😅. Hope this helps anyone having trouble!
So I now have two "Master Swords" and one "MsgNotFound in my inventory" after doing this twice just now. The first time I did it, and dropped the sword/weapon combo, it actually dropped three weapons. The fused master sword, my two handed weapon, and a Lizal Reaper which I assume came from the material I used. Also my duped swords both show the Lizalfos horn completely green when I first take them out but then they disappear and my sword blade gives a ghostly appearance, and by that I mean the blade is invisible but the outer glow is still there.

Stay tuned for Part 2 where we cover even more glitches and tricks that have been found. And just like the last video, a FAQ is further down in this comment that I will update:
Q) What version was this on?
A) The glitches shown works on version 1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1 - Unfortunately 1.1.2 Patched these glitches. Research is being put it to see if a new setup on 1.1.2 works atm.
Q) I am struggling with the Weapon Duplication, any advice?
A) The thing's that you can try to do differently are: Swap the weapon you are trying to duplicate/transfer over, change what is fused to it, or drop the 2nd weapon after the unpause/pause, then load the save. If neither of these things work, you're timing is simply off and you can try to either be faster, or slightly slower on the pauses.
Q) I can't get the Weapon to drop into the corridor, any advice?
A) First, make sure the position is correct. You want to be roughly at the height I am at in the video, and at that position. You can try to use a different rock setup if you cannot get it with mine, the rocks are not important to the setup, only the position value is. So if using a different lineup let's you have about the same height and position, that works too. This is just what I found to be the most consistent. I have also heard that certain people switched the type of weapon that they were using, and then it fell into the right spot and not out of bounds, so you can also try that.
Q) I did the Zuggle Glitch but I lost my fuse after leaving the Shrine, any idea?
A) We are not 100% sure about this one, I was able to leave the shrine just fine, certain other people also were, while some people said it lost their fuse. My guess is something related to how the game loads or unloads the "donation weapon" on the ground that we used to fuse the Master Sword, or something with Shrines, or what is equipped when you leave? Some people have said that after fusing the Master Sword, before leaving the shrine, that saving, returning to main menu, then reloading the save makes it permanent. Like it said, this one is a bit more strange.
You should never lose the inf durability Master Sword, but fusing things to it seems to be a bit strange.
Does the code for 50 stellar jades only work for new players?
@@Arvl. yes
No.
would the gibdo bone work for fuse and not break?
@@Antidepressiva1980 nope i got the stellar jades which mind you is not even worth 1/3 to gacha once
for anyone having trouble on getting the timing for the weapon transfers: when you unpause and pause again, make sure you are not pausing *too* fast. the timeframe for pausing again starts when the weapon *appears* after dropping it. if you unpause and pause again, and don't see the weapon behind link, then it won't work and you need to try again.
Thanks for the help, I was trying for like an hour and after seeing this I got it first try
You’re a legend
Wait is this true for the item duping one too, the one without saves
This really saved me. I was about to lose it. 😅👍
I still can't get it
As a game developer, I love those video step-by-step instructions for reproducing programming errors
I know a fair bit about programming (not from a game dev perspective though) so it's also fascinating to theory craft about why this kinda stuff breaks...
Given that pausing and unpausing seems to be core to most of these glitches, my guess is that the different steps of moving items around/dropping them/etc happen on different frames and you're able to interrupt those processes, much like a database going offline halfway through a transaction
@@Imperial_Squid I’m fairly certain you’re correct considering that the pause menu glitch must be performed in 5 frames or less.
i actually love glitches its my favorite in every zedla
Every dev's dream is to have someone explain clearly how to consistently reproduce a bug lol
@@Imperial_Squid couldn't they just move the shrine locations like 400 cords where it doesn't overlap with a over world location? 😅
One thing I’ve noticed playing this game, the menu for loading prebuilt structures actually takes enough time to load to swap into another power. I’ve once swapped to ultra hand before the menu popped up. I quit out before I could fool around in it but I feel like something weird might come from it.
Collab with others on this for sure
Yes! I accidentally did this earlier but exited too early and was unable to reproduce it
I got into ultrahand before the menu loaded. When I select a structure it would exit to me using the ultrahand ability. id be surprised if there was a glitch coming from this
@@radsammyt2238 You'd be surprised by how often glitches occur due to menu layering - That was the entire basis of like, MOST Fallout 4 duplication/infinite resources/similar glitches.
On your power wheel is quite a few things that open menus, like the map, the amiibo one, etc. I wouldn't be overly surprised if there was something you could do there.
Seems like even if you get it frame perfect (Prebuilt UI shows up while the rune wheel shows up), the new rune will override the Prebuilt UI, havent tried it enough times since I have little patience, but I hope this goes somewhere.
This glitch is hilariously cool because its like link went back in time to get his sword before ganondorf can destroy it.
Be funny if the final boss could be the only one that could break it 🤣
Link unlocks time travel and the first thing he does is rob himself💀💀
@@Lunacy4 Kind of creates a paradox since Link probably would have died if the master sword didn't take the brunt of the damage during the first encounter with Ganon.
@@Lunk42 Nah, it just creates another new Downfall Timeline
@@jordanbtucker Well it still creates a paradox since if Link does die he can't be there to go back in time and steal the Master Sword from his past self. Thus creating a paradox.
I don’t see the problem here… a well crafted Zelda game with an easy mode
or more or less just a take some of the pains out. We all have those moments were we just need a good weapon and are screwed with out it. Mining in the depths break all your weapons run into an Obsidian Frox welp guess I will just die.

@@chasemcfarland2851 your a glitch hunter? If you are inv me to call or something I found one
Just a little tidbit for anyone having trouble getting the Master sword to respawn in your auto save(the shrine save), it is possible to pause and unpause too fast, I have noticed that whenever I got the sword to drop vertically behind link it would respawn but if I did it too fast the master sword would be at a diagonal angle and it would never respawn in the shrine.
So im guessed its the same thing for making the other weapon spawn in the castle, so basically I spent 5 hours trying to get my pause/unpause to be as fast as possible but it NEVER worked because I was TOO fast?
I'll take it as a compliment thanks
Im having trouble getting the weapon into the past (the First part). Its riddiculous. Ive been trying for 5 hours now.
@@lelysio5688 I have also been trying and can't get it to work. The timing is so hard.
Its really simple, just make sure that the weapon actually drops when you press start the second time, it took me a fee tries but I saw it spawn under the ground in the past, make sure to get as HIGH as possible and run towards it and mash A
Thank you
Just did this and wanted to add an addendum
If you zuggle the MsgNotFound sword you'll notice you will have the glitched version and the regular version. Dropping the regular version will "break" the glitched one, turning it back into the regular one, from my experience.
thank you so much, i was trying to see what i was supposed to do with it. I would have been furious if i had to do all that again.
If I leave the shrine it goes back to normal
I think there may be other conditions that cause the msgnotfound sword to lose its fused upgrade as well. I just redid it and it reset back to 30 after doing some amiibo and open chests and dropping a weapon to make room for chest weapon. 🤷♂️
also, at least for me on 1.1.0, if i do it exactly as linkus said, the fused master sword will show the increased dmg in inventory but the ingame visual of the sword is normal and as soon as the other weapon that you leave on the ground despawns (either by going too far away or teleporting away) the sword reverts to 30 dmg.
The solution to that, that i found is just saving and reloading the game after you picked up the fused master sword, after reloading the weapon on the ground will be gone and your master sword should still have the buffed damage and show the visuals of whatever monster part you fused when you pull it out
@@sengklinge This does "fix it" but this glitch is extremely weird. The game doesn't seem to know what the base of the weapon is, almost as if the pointer is defaulting to something else in your inventory because when I reloaded, it said the base was "fuse attack power" which makes no sense but when I hovered over something else in the inventory, it immediately copied that base and it now says Gerudo Claymore.
At least this game is super broken in a way that will never affect a casual gameplay, and only if you know exactly what you're doing (unlike literally every other big game to come out this year)
Ive no clipped by mistake in this game so thats not true, when a game is so big bugs are inevitable
It affected me actually. I have an uncomplete-able quest now... lol.
@@theurbanreanimator7244it's not that big though, it's smaller than Manhattan. Probably One of the smallest modern open world maps there is.
@@dadtronic You're sure about that? There are 3 layers including the Depths (the size and magnitude of the underground shocked me, as it was not really highlighted in trailers nor marketing material) , so stack the explorable area, then add the numerous new caves around the world. Plus, it's not just size of the map. Even on the Hyrule layer with reused assets, TotK seems to be populated with way more "stuff" and distractions than BotW - so it's not just empty open space. The new game mechanics and physics are interacting with the terrain in interesting ways as well. Then there are 152 (?) shrines and the interiors of some can magically sprawl out to be huge city blocks by themselves. Then add the multi-floor Hyrule Castle and 4 Temples. The game feels like a super MASSIVE black hole of a timesuck - way bigger than PS Spider-Man and Miles Morales, which both take place in Manhattan. I've dropped 100+ hours on TotK and feel like I have only scratched the surface.
This is why , in a single player game, I wish they would not fix fun glitches that ninety-nine percent of casual players are not going to find without searching. Whistle sprinting was probably the most likely one people would find.
When your doing the master sword glitch you can also save inside the shrine and use the autosave that happens after you beat the bats that attack you it works just about the same as doing it the way your doing it.
It is also removes the risk of losing your main save if the game decides to autosave a lot during the new game.
I believe the game won’t overwrite saves from after the one it’s trying to make, so you can set the time ahead, get an auto save, and then set the time back so the game will think it’s got an auto save already made as it’s ahead of time. BotW was like this, you could use it to make protected auto saves during big glitches that require manual saves.
Was about to comment saying this, thank you for your work kind stranger.
If someone has trouble transferring a weapon to the start of the game, try to ultrahand 2 boulders on each other instead of 1 boulder and 1 stone. You get more height by doing so, making it easier for the weapon to spawn.
Thanks
The dupe glitch at the start required you to drop the second weapon after you paused and unpaused before you reload or nothing will happen
for me neither idk
And here I thought I was fucking up. He needed to clarify the differences for versions of there is any like that. I spent i shit you not the past 40 minutes trying. I read this comment and did it first try.
Thank you so much. This should be pinned
Oh my god. Youre my hero. Ive tried so long and this immediately solved it!
First try after I did this… after 30 mins of trying the other way… I love you, Ty
I think it was obvious that this game was going to be UNBELIEVABLE broken
In the best way
But it doesn’t affect normal play throughs so it’s a good broken
Far too many variables to keep track of for it not to be. The more moving parts the more likely it is to break and once it breaks there is likely to be a huge fucking chain of breaks.
@@Grimeaper eh I think it's more because the hardware and the engine couldn't bug test everything and the switch is kinda Trash sometimes rivals the ps1 in graphics sometimes
@@Raddish-IS-Radd Eh... Hardware is just there to run the software and other stuff it is not really easy for it to be this type of buggy. This is more of a lot of moving parts, and a new engine that has not been worked out fully. I mean take Unreal its been around forever and it is absolute dog shit compared to this engine, though it is in general dogshit. It is fun to use though if you can use it. Hardware though would make it hard as hell to keep up with everything thus allow bugs to open up. It is very old, and Nintendo should think about erring on the side of caution and actually going closer to modern day next time so they have wriggle room big horse does not mean you doing it for graphics. You need it for other things as well and I hope TOTK shows them that you know it was possible to put this game out on it but barely so maybe we should allow breathing room next time. Hopefully, they make a truly limitless world. It is doable to make a map where you can go anywhere. As a dev me and mine coder have worked out two ways to do it for our game.
For anyone having issues with the duped sword and reverting damage;
Save your game immediately after you pick up the fused master sword, and then reload. This will despawn the item you're discarding, Then, youll have a 30 dmg, and whatever you fused with. Drop (or keep) the 30, if drop, save and reload again, (to discard the duped sword) and then fast travel out. Your fused damage will stay.
Edit: the fused item durability is *not* infinite for gibdo bone or ancient blade, they will still break after one hit, reverting your sword back to MsgNotFound
You save the game go to title screen and load the save leave the shrine and it works
@gumku is it infinite durability tho?
@@MasterPlay13337 yeah
@gumku after one hit the damage went back to 30 and I have 3 msgnotfound
Edit: I used the gibdo bone and I didn't know that it breaks after one use
@@MasterPlay13337 idk what you're doing wrong then sorry
These are really cool glitches so far. Hopefully we get some cool movement glitches too. I want to see Link get launched across the map in crazy ways in this game as well.
The item dupeing one is so broken, I've just started my run but have effectively infinite money from dupeing diamonds for hair an hour 😂
Someone threw a spear, locked it with recall(?), connected a plank to the spear, once the spear went back, the insane rotational speed leverages the plank and catapults link.

Personally i am waiting for them to discover a way to whistle sprint as my god in the early game it would have been great to have instead of waiting for the stamina bar to recharge
An ultimate tip for anyone else not being able to transfer the first weapon to the start of the game, let’s go higher. I combined the three boulders forming a triangle and placed it diagonally where it’s shown on the video, then on top of that put the small rock to have somewhere to fit nicely as the video describes. Got it first try after this, hope it helps you too. ❤ Just imagine a pyramid of boulders with a stone at the top.
Thank you this worked for me first try!!
THANK YOU
I love how breath of the wild was completly broken underneath the hood, and then they patched all of our glitches, only for us to find EVEN more powerful glitches. Still, I'm super excited for movement tech, that's what made breath of the wild speedruns cool.
This is pretty much the most important type of glitch to me. I don't want to trivialize the game too much giving myself some God powered weapon that doesn't break. But if I could save a few minutes by flipping myself into the sky with a piece of wood instead of finding some machine to build and drive then I don't mind doing that
yeah, that too barely in a week.
@@Rain1already been found my friend. Throw a spear straight ahead, recall it. While it's recalling attach a log or plank, jump on. Don't end the recall. Enjoy.
@@Halosrighthand lol yeah I've been doing it but I haven't been able to get it very consistently. About everyone in five or so. I hope there is a stronger version of this eventually where it just sends you to the top of the map
@@Rain1 I've seen some pretty cool stabilizer builds, but those require a little more effort. Hope we can find something that's 2 buttons to go to the moon like windbombs
8:14 if you go right and break the pillar instead of going left and grabbing the small rock. You can grab a chest which if you flip upside-down is both a slightly higher platform when fused but also mostly stable ground. It seems to still slide link but it's way slower, to the point where it's almost unnoticeable
this, i just figured this out after an hour of trying this out, the chest seemed like the better solution in my head and it works better as it doesnt clip the weapon through the ground and it just appears in the hall
Also fusing two boulders to get extra height really helped me, one boulder is just BARELY high enough
@@PerpetualCamel I agree but the chest stops you from having to worry about sliding off
this comment is goated, legit got it first try with the chest
Linkus, me and my brother were playing and we discovered a new glitch! In the quest where you save the trumpet player from the hole, if you start climbing the wall before the screen goes dark, you will lose the ability to fall, and can only go up. Falling off of something just keeps your movement speed until you hit a new object on the same elevation if that makes sense. Kind of like the glitch where you pick up a bow and a pot and float, but much easier. If you start climbing again though, it gets disabled. Hope this helps!
use a weapon with a big hit box like a cobble crusher, works way more consistent (at least when i tried)
edit: you can find a cobble crusher at the bokoblin camp with the one silver bokoblin and two black bokoblins at the bottom of death mountain (just head east from area with all the building stuff, it should be the first small camp on the outer edge of death mountain)
The one thing about the smuggled Master Sword is it doesn't seem to get the double damage bonus that the regular Master Sword gets against glooms enemies (i.e. most thing in the depths and Phantom Ganon) so it feels much better to just dupe the champion weapons or Royal stuff with Silver Lynel Blades for fighting anything stronger than a Black Bokoblin.
Nah, an infinite durability master sword plus silver lynel horn is strong enough to comfortably take down just about anything
or put the silver lynel horn on the sword and dodge or parry
it only took a week but here we are again, a sandbox of glitches in the zelda games.
So, when pause+unpause+pause, I think you need to make sure you can see the item you dropped during the second pause. It only worked for me when I could see the weapon I dropped. Like, it has to be off your body. Sorry if my explanation sucks, might try to explain better in the morning
Same, although I still can't get it to stay inbounds long enough to grab it
halfway through the video so far, beautiful explanations!
thanks for showing off these glitches, it was great seeing them develop live
Something I will note, when you fuse the infinite master sword, make sure you don't have it equipped when you enter a loading screen. If it is equipped when doing so, will cause the sword to reset.
Thank you
wish i saw this comment sooner lol, did the whole setup after like 10 minutes of trying and immediately lost the fuse
Thank you for your comment. I was a little irritated when my 80 damage master sword got reset
Thank you, I was wondering why it was gone when I saved and loaded my game on the next session.
As u see in the video, the weapon is stuck in the wall for a second. Some weapons glitch out of the map instrad of inside. So be quick if you see the weapon and pick it up. Some weapons shape isnt very good for the Transfer in this position, so try different weapons.
Also, u want to see the weapon u transfer behind ur back after u double + on that rock.
If anyone is having trouble with the weapon not dropping high enough in the corridor, I tried using the chest in the corner of the shrine instead of the small rock and its working really well
thank you so much
what angle are you facing?
@@Odb718 This reply is probably pretty late but I was facing the crack in the wall that Linkus mentioned
I have an answer for the Q) I did the Zuggle Glitch but I lost my fuse after leaving the Shrine, any idea?
A) If you teleport to the same shrine in the overworld while inside the shrine, the Fuse will stay 100% of the time. Then save, and it will be permanent.
I need to hurry up and beat this casually so I can do all this busted stuff without feeling somewhat guilty.
Just play how you like, friend. Nobody cares how you beat it. The game isn't "open world" for you to be boxed-in.
having an infinite durability master sword feels so right, it's how the game should've been on release.
Does it still work on 1.1.2?
@@starplane1239 no unfortunately, hopefully someone will find another way
What an absolute god send from the community ❤ thanks Linkus for show casing and spreading the info with us! Can’t wait for part two!
For those who are unsure if it's still possible to get the glitched master sword, I just managed to do it after a good number of attempts.
The small Boulder is optional, and a spear works great as well.
thanks the spear helped
I traded the small rock for a bigger boulder. Connected 2 big boulders and tilted them in a way that I would be slightly higher than if i used the small rock. Also I didn't slide off. My weapon kept appearing inside the steps in the other save - with video method. I thought, i probably need to get higher so my weapon appears above the steps. So it worked. Also I used quick ++ (as seen in video) despite what others in comments say.

For anyone struggling with the sword clipping through the map, I advise just sticking two of the large boulders together, then position the boulders at an angle against the wall so link is higher up. (be warned the weapon may roll down the stairs into the cutscene door though)
Wow, that Master Sword glitch was so unbelievably easy! What a fantastic prize 😁 This will be super helpful. Thank you Linkus for the tutorial, and thank you Zelda glitch hunting community!
Anyone having trouble: make sure you are actually equipping a second weapon during the first step… I tried like 20 times to no avail, watched it again, equipped the second weapon, and it worked immediately.
BTW Make sure you get high up because it will fall through the floor
I was waiting for this. I knew thiis would be absolutely crazy. I'm sure that you'll come up with some insane speedrun tactics for this game as time goes on, as well. Best of luck to you! :)
Thank you for the easy explained glitches and steps to reproduce them.
The weapon transfer between saves was relatively easy to do but the fusing weapons glitch was a bit of trial & error, since both the position and the pause speed can screw it up.
But after about 5 attempts I saw my master sword and the other weapon held at once and I knew I succeeded.
Thank you! I now have an infinite durability 85 damage Silver Lynel Master Sword. :D
Finally got it to work. I went ONE step higher than you did on the dark staircase. I went to drop the Sword and when it was VERTICAL behind Link, I loaded the other save for the shrine. Lo and behold it was there, resting in the water.
Thank you so much, finally got it to work
It's a shame that most of this is probably going to get patched. But I suppose that is the price to pay for finding a crazy glitch like this early on.
at least it works in 1.0 so its possible tp reset to it if you have a physical copy

@@lpellett429 Same reason anybody ever shared secrets about a video game
when youre sending the master sword back to your main save make sure of 2 things
1- when you pause unpause make sure you can see the sword appear. if you pause too fast without it dropping then it wont worl
2- if it doesent transfer over its prob bc it gets stuck in the floor and noclips out. try jumping when you drop it in the new game so it spawns a little bit higher in your main save
Does anyone else have an issue of the fused master sword reverting back to the msgnotfound, and then having two 30 damage msgnotfounds?
after succesful zuggle, you have to immediately save and return to title screen and reload that save, you should be able to fast travel or leave shrines without losing fuse item damage buff
To anyone having trouble, it worked for me by being closer to the archway and facing the camera. For some reason it didn't work for me until I faced the camera
For the infinite durability glitch, can that mess up your save?
Nope, it's 100% safe. That's why I used my main file, and in the steps I go over how the saves work because I understand people can be paranoid to lose their save.
The instructions contains safety saves along the way and in-depths instructions so should'nt be an issue.
no, unless you were to do the fuse glitch, if you mess up some steps it can cause afew things

You can still pick up the item you drop for fusing the fake master sword. Once you dropped the fused sword and weapon, you can pick up the other weapon FIRST, then pick up the master sword. I found that it works more often if you do use it, and gives the master sword a cool effect of what item you used
thats actually the fuse affect the master sword gets, seems the game confuses it with the real ms when fused
Took me a while to get it, but finally managed to get it done on my main save.
85 damage infinite durability Master Sword makes me incredibly happy.
Can I ask how you left the shrine? I can get the monster part to attach to the master sword and it has the high damage numbers and everything like in the video but when I leave the shrine it goes back to normal and I lose the monster part…
@@royalet7982 Check if you have a duplicate Master Sword in your inventory. I noticed that happened to me too. Just drop the non-fused duplicate before you leave and you should be fine.

What item did you use to fuse the sword with to get 85 damage?
Release the 2 part asap, this content is goated Linkus, you do a great job explaning the glitches
Clear explanation, you made easy to accomplish something quite complex for the average user like me. Great content
Quick note when you fuse a item the glitch master sword with zuggle don't leave the shrine, from the door otherwise it will unfuse warp to somewhere like another shrine or Lookout landing, or any fast travel point to be exact and it will keep the item fused to it entering a shrine will unfuse it so keep that in mind, you won't be able to get more hearts for stamina containers because you can't get more lights of blessing😊
That's wrong, I warped out and it unfused, now I have 2 msgnotfound swords
I followed the instructions and everything worked as intended, until I left the shrine. At that point I had 2 msgnotfound in my inventory, both not fused, and was missing the original stick and lynel horn.
Yea the same thing happens to mine and you'll also lose said fused item too
Figured out that you need to switch out the master sword in your inventory so the stick no longer thinks its fused to the same item as the master sword. Then you will have one glitched version and one normal version of the master sword. You shouldn't drop the normal version until after you have gone through a loading screen (exiting the shrine or teleporting) you can also perform the same glitch on the "normal" one again to get another fused master sword. Useful if you want a blade and a club.
People saying ToTK is broken, but I’d like to applaud the amount of easy glitches that all have practical uses. It almost feels intentional how polished the game feels outside of these very convoluted but useful bugs, just like BoTW. It’s awesome how these bugs are complex enough that you would find little to no bugs as severe playing the game normally, but easy enough to practically do avoid certain painful features. I got most of my postgame playtime in BoTW abusing bugs and it looks like this game will be just as fun!
Okay it's fun to have infinite durability + fuse on MS but since you can drop it can you have a buff on it too like a +10 with the octo ?
Most unique dropable weapons are instantly spit out by the octos, like the demon weapons, Champion Relics etc.. and since the MSGNotFound is TECHNICALLY a Master Sword, I doubt it would work :P
@@CordyBrush yup he doesn't sadge wanted a 95 umbreakable weapon guess i'll just keep it at 85
These are the harmless and often hilarious kind of glitches that I want in a video game, cause after 60+ hours of gameplay and beating the game, I didn't encounter any bugs that affected my playthrough. You really have to go out of your way to replicate these bugs, which is why they feel more like little easter eggs than actual bugs.
it keeps getting better lmao
That ain’t no Master Sword, that’s a “MsgNotFound” and it’s beautiful.
for some reason the duplication glitch does not work for me?
Me too, I've been doing all the steps and even the comments advice and still nothing is happening for my game.

Edit: just remembered that the master sword does a *BONK* to specter ganon (the guy that spawns after killing the gloom hands, the name in Italian is spettro ganon which when translated to English is specter ganon so sorry if I got the name wrong) and thus probably does 2x dmg so am gonna check if the msgnotfound sword does the same
It doesn’t do *BONK* :(
Hey linkus whenever I try to do the master sword trick, the item I’m transferring into that new game just is not appearing. Any tips?
same, tried like 10 times
Woooot, infinite sword with light dragon horn. Never breaks, and it restores 1 HP on each hit. Super handy for exploring without having to worry about resource management.
Interesting that after fusing at 17:11 it still says unter Master Sword: [30] Gnarled Long Stick + [37] Silver Boss Bokoblin Horn
So it got the damage value [30] from the Master Sword but kept the name of the Gnarled Long Stick. Amazing what technology can do these days.
Canonically the weapon transfer glitch is just Link sending help to himself from the past and future
For anyone wondering both glitches still work in 1.1.1 but the dupe is slightly different. You need to do it as normal but after pausing/unpausing you need to drop the second item as well and then equip a third item so you need to dupe two weapons into the start to get the msgnotfound
I figured this out by watching another video where this alternate dupe was used and then adapting the msgnotfound glitch to work with it
If anyone needs an explanation on the entire route I will happily oblige
@@THELORDRA yes pls
@fecalmatter128 ok so you're going to follow his route exactly until you get to the weapon dupe parts. Everything other than the dupe glitch is exactly the same. When you get to the first dupe to get the weapon in to the start of the game you need to do the glitch he shows but instead of loading the manual save after the pause/unpause you want to drop the second weapon you equipped and then equip another weapon. Then you go to the manual save and pick up the weapon. Manual save again and go back to the shrine and repeat to get a second weapon in. Now you do the normal setup to get the mastersword but with the altered dupe glitch
I also recommend manual saving after picking up the second weapon in case you mess up
3:34
"This is gonna be most people's second shrine."
What do you mean by MOST PEOPLE? What have the speed runners done?
Do I need to delete the patch data or anything like that? Nothing seems to work for me?
All works on latest version.
@@ryan20028 thank you sir
Tips on weapon duping from my personal experience
Stand with link facing the side of the camera -- the weapon drops behind him, so this makes it easier to see whats happening.
You want to unpause then pause again right when the weapon apepars behind him. After you pause again, if you cant see the weapon or if its partially transparent, you paused too fast. If the weapon has started to fall even slightly (hard to tell when facing forward, but MUCH easier to see when facing the side) you paused too late. Obviously this is all too fast for reaction speed, but after using that to judge myself, i can rpetty reliably get a succesful dupe in 2-3 attempts (plus it helps me not have to waste time loading on failed attempts)
Oooo cant wait for the speedruns
They’ve already started😂 1:24 I believe is the current time
@@bluebeebeani thought it was shorter like 1:1x something LMAO
@@yamiru3417 It might be, its been a few days since I looked
@@yamiru3417 Oh, I just looked. Gymnast86 has a 1:18 time now, they dropped it 11 minutes from their first time
@@bluebeebean yea
One issue I notice is after I infuse the MSG Master Sword with the Zuggle glitch, is that if I fast travel or go too far from the Stick used in the infusion glitch, the infusion wears off and the MSG reverts to its unfused state
Having the same problem, when I leave the shrine it turned back to normal
Just put on another weapon after the master sword became glitched with more damage, that way it kinda locks the damage
That did indeed lock the effect into the weapon. Its now infused with a Frost Gleeok horn and properly persists between loading zones. Thank you very much for the assistance!
I may give this master sword a shot. I do not mind durability too much, but it is as a pain as it is in the original to me. I just hope I do not fail too hard at it with my fat fingers. Practice weapon duplication first and see how that feels. I already use the Yiga special move for mining because I am tired of running out of weapons in the depth lol. Always end up with like a stick or two left and then bam Obsidian Frox or whatever up my ass. Can't wait for the movement tutorials. I want to sweep the sky islands before too long. I can use machines but they do not always work sometimes lol. I may do both. Hope you find a way to clone a stack of items at once lol. One diamond at a time for a few rupees is a pain, or for some bomb flowers.
Because there no doubt will be an issue with someone else in the future, here is how it worked when i tried, in case it helps.
1: you have to repause before the weapon appears behind link. So repause as fast as you can.
2: you have to drop the second weapon you equipped after repausing. This was pointed out by someone else I think.
I did the zuggle part of the glitch and it resulted in me getting another MsgNotFound sword so now I have 2
MsgNotFound Fused to MsgNotFound
Doing this immediately, I've always hated weapon durability.
Bro Hates what makes the game fun
@@dmgdude2183 eww u like durability?
Shame it doesnt play with fusing stuff without a whole lot of messing around
@@dmgdude2183 how of all the things in these games, is weapon durability THE thing that makes it fun 😂😭😂😭😂😭😂😭
@@teddy-jameslambert1514 because it forces you to think on the fly, and come up with unique solutions to problems which you would have otherwise solved with the exact same sword every single time.
If you are struggling cloning weapons from one to another save file: it is possible to pause and unpause to fast. Someone already wrote that but what I also realized is, that if you pause too fast you won‘t see the dropped weapon in the blurred gameplay background, so check if you can see it, if not you are too fast. I was struggling for around an hour 🥲
I was having trouble with the master sword smuggle and learned it seems to be possible to double pause too quick and also fusing two double handed swords (cobble crusher to a royal claymore) helped me pick up the sword even with imperfect alignment
As a tip, once you are pausing and u pausing with the master sword at 11:05, if you see that the master sword is perpendicular instead of diagonal, you did it correct and can move on. If not, unpause the game, pick up the master sword, and retry.
9:25 something about this, if you see that the weapon appears behind you when you repause sometimes it won't work, for a 100% chance that it will work you would not want the weapon to appear in the world
Wow. This actually worked perfectly. I’m elated! Earned a sub. Thanks so much
fun fact face is sperate because face has the shape keys and at around 30k+ poly's it's best to split mesh for performance with skinned mesh rendering using shape keys
*****If your zuggled “msg not found” is duplicating and losing it’s power when walking out of the shrine, redo the zuggle, make a manual save inside of the shrine then reload the save. You’ll be able to leave with both a duped “msg not found” and a fused “msg not found”
I can confirm that at the time of writing it does still work. It took me quite a few tries to get the weapon into the intro sequence, and then a few tries to get the msgnotfound to the shrine. But it does work. Stand correctly and time it correctly (version 1.1.1)
i remember being in the speedrun server when zuggle was discovered, it was that popular we had to make a thread to talk about zuggle because it was flooding the chat and people couldnt talk about any other glitches lol
the funniest part about this is i accidentally duped the master sword while trying to zuggle
we totally should drop the metric and imperial system in favor of the link measurement system, the clearly superior method of measurement
So, extra safety tip.
If you have NSO, upload your save data to the cloud before trying, and then disable auto-backups.
This way even if absolutely everything goes wrong, and somehow you go through 5 save files in autosaves because your dog stole your controller and ran out the door with it and it got stolen by the neighbor kid who was then hit by a bus....
You'll still have your original save data to revert back to.
Hyped for part 2! Linkus is the best glitch explainer
Only Issue I’m having is the sword doesn’t stay merged with the material when I leave the shrine. It just goes back to 30
It worked but I had to make a save when I got the sword merged then kept walking out of the shrine and re loading until it stayed merged when I spawned outside. It took me 3 tries but so far it’s still merged. I haven’t switched weapons tho
So I have 5 master swords now all different fusions for fun. 1 thing I had to do every time was save before I left the room so when I spawned outside of the shrine if fusion was gone I could just re load until it stayed. Don’t merge the ancient blade it will only last 3 hits on anything. It’s one of the only materials that is breakable on the MsgNotFound
I also tried stacking fusions on the master sword but it doesn’t work. Seems like you can only merge 1 item with the current glitch until someone finds a way.
ok I now spent some time and did not get the weapon to spawn in the past. I did some testing and it worked for me when i turned around and stepped away from the wall so i can drop weapons, because the weapon gets dropped behind the modell of the character. doing that it dropped way closer and higher to the wall...
Still works may 24th,2023. Although it took me a couple tries using thick stick to get it to go between saves.
I wonder if they'll make the repause delay after unpausing longer, since that seems to be the source of most of the glitches.
should be noted that you can do an NSO cloud save backup/restore if you are really paranoid about messing this up.
if you could quickly explain how to do that i would greatly appreciate it. i’m just worried about this fucking up story elements (not sure if the master sword is involved but if it is… yknow)
@@rollinburket off the top of my head, turn automatic backups off, then back up your save manually in the system settings. Then if something goes wrong somewhere in the settings there will be an option to overwrite your local console save with the one you put on the cloud earlier.
I follow the glitch to modify the master sword and I end up accidentally multiple master words, I have 4, one real, 2 fakes and 1 modify, lol
Thanks for explaining the way the glitches work. It makes more sense what's going on and that makes them easier to do.
it works, but when you go outside of the shrine it makes it so that there’s two weapons, and that it doesn’t bring it outside of the shrine
On attempt 30. Starting to think it’s been patched.
I need some help. I’ve tried this numerous times, using a Boulder hammer, then a Zora spear with a log. My timing is right, I’ve gotten the item duplication right, but it’s just not spawning in the intro. WTF am I missing?
Got it. Had to use 2 big boulders, the had to make sure I dropped my 2nd weapon in the intro.
Very well done guide, thanks!
I will say though, your method with the small rock didn't work for me.
So what I did was Fuse the two boulders THEN I fused the small rock on top of the boulder closest to the wall. That gave me more height and the dropped weapon spawned as normal.
Your method, for me, made it spawn inside the rock on the stairs, so I couldn't pick it up 😅.
Hope this helps anyone having trouble!
worked like a charm. Thank you kind internet person
So I now have two "Master Swords" and one "MsgNotFound in my inventory" after doing this twice just now. The first time I did it, and dropped the sword/weapon combo, it actually dropped three weapons. The fused master sword, my two handed weapon, and a Lizal Reaper which I assume came from the material I used. Also my duped swords both show the Lizalfos horn completely green when I first take them out but then they disappear and my sword blade gives a ghostly appearance, and by that I mean the blade is invisible but the outer glow is still there.
