Cave of Ordeals Walkthrough

I: Foreword: 

Hello Everyone. 

This is my first FAQ so be nice if its not up to snuff. 
I will be telling you of the enemies encountered on 
All 50 floors and a strategy (possibly other strategies as well) 
To defeat them all. Rewards, requirements and so on and so forth.

This is all my own words and work and for use only on exclusive sites.
If you find problems in this guide, inaccurate details, hard to use, so on 
And so forth please email me at gamefreakchad88@yahoo.com. 
To move to a particular section press Ctrl F and type in where you want to go.
The Cave of ordeals floor will look like this (CoO"X") where "X" is the floor 
Number.

If you choose to email me do not brag about what you did or didn’t do. It’s 
actually quite aggravating especially since I’m getting nearly 40 emails a 
day and on average at least 15 have someone bragging.
Additional strategies may be found at the bottom of this FAQ.
Also write in third person some of these emails I received seem to jump to 
conclusions about how I played. Its not polite. Don’t complain in college
you have to write in third person it’s good practice.

III: Description
	
The Cave of Ordeals is not called the Cave of Ordeals for nothing. This cave
Will test your skills, endurance, brains, determination, and more in a thrilling
50-floor dungeon. The enemies become progressively harder the deeper you go
Into this cave. The Cave of Ordeals can be found at the Gerudo Desert Mesa warp.
After you have warped the Bridge of Eldin piece, the entrance to the 
Cave of Ordeals will be revealed it is the Gerudo Mesa warp point. 
This cave is a must for those Poe-hunters out there.

IV: Requirements
You need access to the Gerudo desert.
To complete the Cave of Ordeals certain tools are required.
The Spinner, The Ball and Chain, The Dominion Rod, Double Clawshot.

For the easiest experience I suggest you have
All 20 Hearts
All Hidden Skills
The Giant Quiver (100) Arrow
The Hawkeye
All 4 bottles
Magic Armor
Spinner
Ball and Chain
Dominion Rod
Double Clawshot
Know how to combine items
Master Sword
Hylian Shield
All 3 Bomb Bags and the upgrade for double capacity in these bags.
Giant Wallet fully loaded with 1000 rupees

V: Rewards

Reaching the 10th Floor releases fairies into Ordon Spirit Spring
Reaching the 20th Floor releases fairies into Faron Spirit Spring
Reaching the 30th Floor releases fairies into Eldin Spirit Spring
Reaching the 40th Floor releases fairies into Lanyaru Spirit Spring
Reaching the 50th Floor releases Great fairies into All Spirit Springs

The 50th floor also allows you to retrieve Great Fairy Tears at any
Spirit spring. Unfortunately you can only carry One Great Fairy's Tears
At any given time. The Great Fairy's Tears Fully replenish your Hearts
And increase your attack strength for a period of time. It's the pick me
Up you'll need facing later bosses. This floor also gives you the reward of
Bragging rights and knowing you successfully completed one of the most 
Difficult things that the LOZ series has thrown at you.
If the three Poes found here are the last ones you need, Jovani will reward
You with 200 rupees which rumor has it you can retrieve over and over again.
I don't know if this rumor is true. But I will find out. 
	
VI: Cave of Ordeals Walkthrough

I will be stating this as the way I did it so if you do it earlier than me, 
Or without my suggestions there may be some difficulty or confusion. 
I don't have exact numbers on most enemies except the more noticeable ones.

I did my Cave of Ordeals in Two parts.
I did the first 10 floors in order to be able to grab Fairies from Ordon spring 
For any dungeon boss Battle.
Second, I went and finished the whole Cave of Ordeals

Before you begin [assuming you've donated 1000 rupees and then 2000 
(Or 200 if you've completed spring water delivery side quest and talked to 
Elder Goron outside Kakariko Village's Malo Mart) 
To rebuild a bridge and open a second Malo mart in castle town]


Go to the Castle Town Malo Mart and purchase 
60 bombs (45 Rupees for 30) 
30 water bombs 
And 20 bomblings (1 rupee each optional). 
Or just 180 regular bombs. (lol Sander)
100 Arrows (5 rupees for 10 arrows), 
3 Blue potions (50 rupees each) Magic armor (598 rupees).

After you've been properly equipped, have full hearts, at least 600 Rupees.
Warp to Gerudo Mesa and prepare yourself for a difficult and lengthy trek 
Into the depths of The Cave.

Off the knights. You may need to manually aim at their feet. " Jump Strike"
Is an absolute necessity here as well as Magic Armor. I hope you have at 
Least one Blue potion and a fairy left. After using a successful jump strike
(Attacking after you hear the chime or see the energy reach the blade's tip) 
 Hack away repeatedly to land in as many hits as you can on the iron knight. 
 A spin attack is useful after a jump strike when they are surrounding you.

IX: Nathan's tip
After the first completion of Cave of Ordeals some floors change the enemies.

Floor 39 gets 3 Iron Knights
Floor 45 Does not have the large chu instead another Archer tower.
Floor 49 has 4 Iron knights

complete these the same way you completed previous versions.

X: Max's Tip
Infinite arrows- Block an arrow attack with your shield and 
a arrow should bounce off your shield and you may then pick it up.
You may need to walk into different positions to block the arrow.

XI: Adam K's Tip
For the Iron knights use mortal draw it melts away their armor.
Knights with less armor tend to hide behind the armored ones.
Your most likely to receive damage when a fully unarmored knight
jumps out from behind the others. After the unarmored phase use 
the magic armor and terminate  the knights.

XII: Additional Strategies
I’m getting numerous strategies for almost every enemy so here they are.

Iron Knights (Dark Nuts)
Before you jump down shoot each with a bomb arrow.
Once they have come the ledge drop bombs over the ledge.
With enough bombs the armor will be completely blown off.
Watch when the Iron knights lose the armor they jump backwards.
They will throw the sword at you either guard with a shield.
Or sidestep or back flip.

When they attack back flip  (or side step) out of the way, then jump strike 
and attack Repeatedly. Continue until the armor is gone. When the armor 
is goneBack slice and attack repeatedly, repeat this until it is defeated.

Use a regular jump attack it will stun the knight and you should be able 
to get 3 – 5 hits in on the guy.

Regenerating Skeleton Warriors
Shoot with a bomb arrow

Ice knights
Shoot with 2 bomb arrows. Hit to cause them to lose the javelin and hit again
Shortly afterwards to defeat it.

Regenerating Skeleton Warriors
Use the ball and chain, if more than one surrounds swing it 
around your head and throw when they are nothing more than bones.

Flying Lizardmen
Shooting with an arrow causes them to show the shield, defeat as mentioned.

Redead knights 
Shoot with a few bomb arrows. 
Or do a jump strike when you are out of range

Armos can be stunned with the ball and chain

You can snipe dodongos with 3 arrows
