I know this is silly how do I open the down with the eye looking at me (?)

I been trying to find things out but nope its the Skyview temple.

I can't find the girl I'm supposed to give the letter to. She won't take it at night. Where is she in the day?

 

[sigmund58]

I have a question. I see all these pics and guides saying that the hylian shield is in the game. I beat the game, and i have yet to see the shield and i want it! I know im probably missing a side quest somewhere or something, but i have upgraded the third shield as much as i can (i think). Does anyone have any idea about how to get the hylian shield?

move your sword in circular motions while the eye is looking.

Spoiler

She should be inside of the classroom in the academy.

The stage before the temple of tine where you must ride with the mining "cars" activate the first stone to get in an area of the past drive with the mining car. Then take thr beetle and fly to the other side where an enemy is. There should be a flower

After you beat the third dungeon if you go into the Bazaar in Skyloft and you go to the item salesman (the one you bought [i assume] other shields from) he should have a shield very similar to the Hylian shield, but doesn't have the same name (can't remember it ATM). It costs 500 Rupees and regenerates itself.

But I see you already have it, well that's it. That's the Hylian shield.

Yea currently i have the "Goddess Shield". I believe it is the highest upgrade for that shield. Im thinking maybe there is a quest to upgrade the Goddess Shield up to the Hylian Shield, but last i checked at the bazaar i can not upgrade it further with him.

For the life of me I can't figure out where to go after entering the Lanayru Desert (the part where there's quicksand EVERYWHERE). What do I have to do?

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

I mean you have it already, the fully upgraded one. That is the Hylian shield. Just like in Wind Waker, it's not called the Hylian shield but that's it. I know because (as far as I know) I've completed the game 100%. All side quests and such finished as well. So...congratz I guess?

Hey, anyone could please tell me where's zelda's father (after getting the harp)
thanks

 

[Supercool330]

Does anybody know what the end results of the Cawlin's litter side-quest are?

Spoiler

If you give the letter to what's her name, she and Pipit fall in love and you get 5 gratitude crystals. If you give the letter to the toilet hand (I love how they keep brining that back), as far as I can tell nothing happens. You tell Cawlin that you gave the letter to the hand, and then I think you are supposed to figure out who it was, but I have no idea how. If I can't figure out I am just going to go back ot my save right after you get the letter, and redo the Pipit way.

Spoiler

damn, gave it to the hand in the toilet lol I hope there will be some event after that :/

Let me know if anything else ever happens down that path, I will revert my save and put off doing either for a while.

yeah there is happening something:

Spoiler

at night, go to goos' room. cawlin is there sleeping. go to him and press a, the hand will show up and thank you for giving her the letter, and you get 5 gratitude crystals

Cool, so it looks like you get 5 gratitude crystals either way. Thanks Netsi.

Right, that is from a different gameplay demo. Again I say, the Goddess Shield is the Hylian shield in this game. There is no Hylian Shield.

Spoiler

did you get the claw beetle? If not, you need to find the cages. clime on top of one and throw bombs into the closest one. you'll find & hit a timestone. save the robot and it'll thank you with the upgrade. from there just start dropping bombs with your new toy.

 

[Matsuyama]

In the Earth temple, after you break the wall down with 2 bombs that's by the two pillars, you get into the room with the dragon heads. There's a room with bombs and a platform across where you can't use your ball anymore. What the hell do you do here?!
