Ice Palace/No Logic

Getting there

Two common overworld glitches can get you into Ice Palace if you're in Link form in the dark world:

• Ice Palace Mirror Wrap
• Ice Palace Flippers Wrap

If you have a bottle, a north subtile YBA in the door inside Kakariko Well gets you to Ice Palace in cave state. The floor will be wonderfully non-slippery on the tile where you enter.

• 

  Bomb snap into the north auto-door to reach the highest pixel.

• 

  YBA by pressing up and drinking a red or green potion simultaneously.

• 

  Welcome to Carpet Palace

You can leave the dungeon (being sure not to pick up a key in cave state) and re-enter to be in Ice Palace state. You won't be in bunny form, because the outside of the dungeon will be in the Fake Dark World.

Getting around

In Hybrid Major Glitches and No Logic, you can use an out-of-bounds bomb clip to skip the top floor of Ice Palace, allowing you to get in without having the Fire Rod or Bombos. Throw a bomb right from a particular position (X coordinate $D60, Y coordinate $1BD), dash into it along the bottom wall, and hold up-left after the bomb explodes. The images below show the setup steps.

• 

  Face right so that two dark vertical lines on the wall decoration are centered on your shadow.

• 

  Dash-turn down and bonk, which brings you to the correct Y coordinate.

• 

  Dash-turn right and throw a bomb.

• 

  Walk down to the bottom wall and dash right, so you're south of the bomb as it explodes.

• 

  Hold up+left after the explosion to pass through the wall.

• 

  You land in this position. Walk directly south to get in bounds.

Getting the prize

YBA to Kholdstare

You can reach Kholdstare with a spin supertile YBA, if you're missing the gloves or hammer.

This method uses a blue potion:

• 

  Pull the tongue on the right statue to reopen the door.

• 

  Bomb snap into the auto-door.

• 

  Perform a spin supertile YBA (release the spin when the text box appears).

• 

  After the screen scrolls, you are near a pit. Tap left and then right quickly to fall to Kholdstare. (Other directions will softlock you in the wall.)

With a red potion, it's almost the same, but you'll get heavy VRAM corruption. Release the sword spin for your spin supertile YBA during the fade-out effect. You will experience a lot of visual corruption and random sound effects for several seconds, then you'll fall into the Kholdstare boss fight automatically.

Remember that the item you had selected was a bottle, so you can blindly navigate the menu to the item you need. Kholdstare will appear as squares that are corrupted differently than their surroundings. Enjoy fighting Kholdsquare.

Wrong warp to Arrghus

If you have defeated Arrghus in Swamp Palace ^(NL), and you don't need to defeat Kholdstare, you can wrong warp to a room on the same supertile as Arrghus' room to collect the Ice Palace prize. One way uses Somaria transition corruption to create a hole you can fall in:

• 

  Clip to the top pixel with a Somaria block, and throw it upward so it lands here.

• 

  Tap up to corrupt the tile. The screen flashes black and nudges up a pixel.

• 

  Walk down to the center of the room, where there turns out to be a hole you fall in.

• 

  You land in an empty room adjacent to the Arrghus room. If Arrghus is defeated, you get the Ice Palace prize.

A slightly messier method using a bottle instead of the Cane of Somaria is a spin supertile YBA in the same door, which causes you to fall to the same place with heavy VRAM corruption.

To do

• Hookstuck/push for Kholdstare
