In this challenge video, I complete The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom without ever stepping foot on the surface. I jump directly into the Depths with absolutely nothing and manage to 100% the entire underworld with interesting tricks and Speedrun glitches.
This is a scripted video with over 150 hours of work put into it, so I really hope you enjoy! Thank you so much for watching.

Hey everyone! Thank you all so much for watching! I've gotten a few comments suggesting alternative solutions to the fire area, so I figured I'd address them in a pinned comment instead of replying to everyone individually. Let me tackle the big ones: "Why didn't you use a hydrant?" Hydrants don't drop from either of the device dispensers in the depths, meaning the only ones I have access to are the naturally generated hydrants in/near the fire temple. If the hydrant is already turned on, that means it's got infinite battery. This definitely seems like a solution, but after extensive testing I found that walking the hydrant too far from its initial spawn point automatically despawns the hydrant, even if you're carrying it. "Why not fuse the hydrant to your shield?" The water that comes from your shield hydrant is actually incapable of affecting Link. I imagine this is to prevent you from burning yourself with flame emitter shields, but I couldn't get the water to put out my fire damage a single time after thirty minutes of testing. Standing against a wall, shield jumping in place, and every other goofy maneuver I could think of yielded nothing. I even tried dropping the shield on the ground and hitting it with my sword to see if the hydrant would turn on. It didn't. lmao "Why not use Chuchu Jelly to get Link wet and survive the fire?" This is another suggestion that sounds really viable at first glance. The problem is the scarce Chuchu Jelly population in the Depths. According to ZeldaDungeon's TOTK Interactive Map, there are only 7 blue Chuchus in the entire Depths, and they're all below Hyrule Castle. It took me over 30hrs of gameplay to find a single blue Chuchu. You can see in the video when I pick them up at 45:53 that it plays the "First time collection" animation for the jelly. To put this to rest once and for all, I even spent 90 minutes last night running around the Depths looking for them on foot. I didn't find a single blue Chuchu. This leads me to one of two conclusions: Either the map is right and there are only seven under Hyrule Castle, or they're so incredibly rare that I didn't find a single one in 30+hrs of exploration. Either way, that doesn't bode well for using them repeatedly to survive the fire area. I banned item duplication, so I'd need to be able to farm dozens of jellies for this to be viable. "Why not fuse an ice item to your weapon, such as Naydra's scales, ice jelly, etc.?" That only allows you to survive heat, not fire. The fire effect of Death Mountain and the Eldin Depths is different from normal heat. In the desert, you're pretty hot but are able to cool yourself off with cold objects like ice. In actual fire areas, the only two things that can protect you are water and the "Fireproof" status effect. That means you either need to be wearing a piece of fireproof armor, be under the effect of a fireproof elixir, or be actively dripping with water in order to avoid death in the fire area. I might edit this comment if more ideas are brought to my attention! The support and reception to this video so far has been absolutely wild, I'm so thankful that you all enjoyed the video! If there are enough theories/suggestions, I might just have to end up making a video where I address and test every solution and see if any of you have a better idea than dying 600 times. Because believe me, I'd use that idea in a heartbeat, ahaha. 💕

I was *so* sure Hydrants would be the answer to the heat. Normally this would be a Catch-22 kinda situation where you would want an Hydrant to get Link wet in order to have about 30 seconds of immunity to Eldin's volcanic heat, but the only area in the Depths where you can get Hydrants is Eldin itself. However there's a workaround thanks to 3 Yiga Schematics that contain Hydrants as part of the build: the Charged Charger, the Sprinkler System, and the Rainmaker. And they all can be found in non-scorching areas. The idea would be to get one of these Schematics, Autobuild it, and modify it a little in order to have a simple build that will douse Link on command and just carry it around until reaching the remaining Lightroots in Eldin. Alternatively, you can use 4 Big Wheels, a Steering Stick, and a long stone slab to build the typical all-terrain vehicle one can find around the game and attach an Hydrant to it that will sprinkle Link with water while he drives around Eldin's Depths. edit: typos

@thaze8947
@thaze8947 4 ай бұрын
I actually have a couple of suggestions that would've made your playthrough a lot easier. I haven't watched the entire video so there could be a chance I'm saying something that you already know. First, in terms of healing, you've got two options that I have't seen you use so far in the video. There is a healing spring underneath the shrine of resurrection in the depths and you can heal hearts from cooking dubious food. Luckily, making dubious food is incredibly cheap and heals a surprisingly good amount of hearts (in the context of the food scarcity in the depths). You can easily make one dubious dish that heals a full heart from cooking a single boko fang (or any other monster part). These resources are incredibly abundent. You can say they aren't infinite since there is no blood moon to respawn the bokos (idk if stals respawn every blood moon or every night), but if you really wanted an infinite source of portable healing, you do have wood which respawns if you leave the area and come back to it but they only heal a quarter of a heart when you cook it. Your only limit is the amount of meals you can hold in your inventory. Second, there is actually one more hydrant that isn't in fire region and conveniently, it's by other zonai devices so you can build a traveling device that keeps you wet at all time, save it to your autobuild, and use it to traverse the scorching hot depths easily. The hydrant is found underneath hyrule castle in the area right before you face the gloom hands (To your left at this area @ 45:50). From what I've seen, you've managed to make it to the light root underneath the castle so I don't think that'll be an issue. Also when you're wet, you are given a generous fire immunity for around a minute and 15 seconds from my testing. Third, opals are also a good source of water. You can easily get opals from killing taluses and ore deposits (Im pretty sure there are ore deposits in the depths). you can use fuse opals to a weapon and use the water balls to hit the mucktorock (or attach opals to an arrow, but make sure you don't hit yourself from the opal splash). You can also use opals as a substitute for splash fruit/chu chu jelly when roaming scorching hot areas. If you throw on the ground near yourself, it wets you but it does do 2 and half hearts of damage regardless of armor. However, you can now easily heal using the first tip I mentioned. Fourth, for seized construct she's def a pain in the ass, but soldiers broadsword + ice lizal tail are a LIFESAVER. This fusion makes you life 10x easier since you can actually freeze seized construct with ice and you have the added benefit of the extra range. The ice tail fusion also won't break on you randomly compared to the spear fusion you used. It's super helpful since it will render any and all attacks from seized construct frozen in place, no need to worry about finding the right opening just run up to her and hit her anytime and she'll be frozen. Soldiers broadsword is nice since it charges much faster than regular swords. SUPER helpful fusion against her. Ice lizalfoes are usually found underneath the gerudo highlands. you can also use electric lizal tails so to instead save durability from breaking the ice and then smacking seized contruct against the wall, but I personally prefer ice lizal tail. Lastly, royal spears are super overpowered against phantom ganon/ganondorf. Even better if you get the pristine versions. To get the pristine royal spear, make sure you break at least one royal spear and go up to the soldier ghosts either the gerudo highlands or the hebra region (I personally perfer going to the gerudo highlands since I find pristine knights, royal and royal guards weapons). To give you some context, lets assume we got a pristine royal spear with a lynel saber horn. That's 54.75 damage (with the 0.75 damage nerf to spears). If you flurry rush, you get double damage so, 109.5 per hit. From my testing, you get 11 hits from a spear flurry so 1204.5 damage for a single flurry rush. Pair that with level 3 attack up and you got 1805.75 damage for every flurry rush you get. Alternatively, you can fuse a stalnox horn (since that's the most powerful bone fusion that is only found in the depths) to a pristine royal spear, pair it with level 3 attack up and wear the phantom ganon armor and you essentially get 2093.85 damage for every flurry rush. Keep in mind phase 1 ganon is 2500 hp, and phase 2 ganon is 5000 hp and he gets rid of his ganondorf clones once you deal 2500 damage to him. If you manage to get a high enough attack up modifer on the pristine spear you essentially need to land 3 flurry rushes against ganondorf to kill him. I've manage to do this, but I forget exactly how much the attack up modifer was to get to the 2500 damage mark (maybe it was attack up +8? idk). You can either get attack up modifers from rock octorocks (but those don't count since they aren't in the depths) or if you gotten enough XP from killing enemies and doing the dungeon bosses. However, I'm not too sure if it's required to do the dungeon bosses to get attack up modifiers on pristine weapons, but I predict that defeating the dungeon bosses isn't necessary for the modifers, I think it's only if you get enough XP. All of these tips should be applicable based on your challenge run rules, since everything can be found in the depths. Make sure you use the totk object map to it's full potential. I'm assuming that you used it, but you can find literally search up every single rock location in totk, that's how comprehensive it is. It's has a learning curve to it, but once you figure it out you can practically find anything in totk.

What an AMAZING, entertaining and interesting video! Let me tell you it was well worth the effort! I have two points to address: 1. You didn't have to use a fairy to go into the depths. There are two wells which lead to the depths and right below them is water. I'm pretty sure you can reach both wells with the two wings next to the Recall Shrine. 2. For surviving the lava area the best option (besides fireproof clothing/elixir) is water. If Link is wet, he can survive for a pretty long time in this extreme heat. If you have a hydrant you can just carry it with you and activate it once per minute or so. The problem is that most hydrants in the depth are already inside the lava area (the only exception is a single one right before the final boss). But you could have reached the hydrants with the save/reload method and from then on used them to complete the rest of the lightroots and the colosseum.

The Chapter 4 Segment where you realised what you have to do to endure the heat was unironcly so freaking cool. I genuinely didn't see that coming and the delivery was on 🦆ing point man. Edit: I had to see it a second time. The confused rambling into the "wait the last point where I saved?" sounded so genuin as if you used a clip of you genuinly just realizing it. Atleast that'e how I act when in a similare situation. Also Rude Buster is the most goated "Bad scene turns out good" track of all time. Edit 2: Ok that running joke about walking turning on it's head was so unexpected that I spit out my sprite

Anyways challenge idea, you asked for em! If we're sticking to Tears of the Kingdom you could do the sane thing but ONLY sky Islands and stuff. Or we can stick with the 'im trapped in this one area with nothing' idea and do it with a different game.

With SimplySnaps repeatedly saying 'I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO' at the end of chapter 3 I can't help but feel it was a lost opportunity to not have chapter 4 titled 'What to do.' or at the very least I would have found it amusing. As a side note, I have actually also discovered a variety of that glitch, though more along the lines of saving and loading to skip the dying part, yet still reset the heat death timer. Another way to potentially survive, off the top of my head, is using the fire hydrants at the fire temple and making an autobuild blueprint with them, but, well, there are plenty of problems with that idea too. Limited battery, difficulties getting there in the first place, and just general tediousness. Anyhoo, lovely video.

my first experience with the game was me doing the floating island as usual and then when i got down to the surface i started running all over the place collecting shrines and jumping down wells and such. Then I found a well that wouldn't stop going down and spent most of my life in the depths. On four hearts and no paraglider. I had a few thousand zonaite by the time I left and I seem to have also basically ensured I would have max rank enemy encounters at all times, or at least it felt that way. I'm pretty sure I ended up with silvers by the time I left. I do know that it made a lot of simple things not so easy anymore.

The Dragon battle is just so damn cool, i can't describe the emotions this whole fight and ending gave me. And the way the demon dragon EXPLODES, that's one huge explosion. I'm an emotional wreck, and when Zelda says "i'm home" my heart just wants to explode. The way you fail to grab her hand in the beginning of the game, and now you're sky diving to grab her hand again. Zelda in botw and totk just seems very... sad, i just get happy when she gets to be happy. (i insert myself into the role of Link too easily) Anyways, cool video, master of the depths.
