You would have had to complete most of the Water Temple in order to get the Longshot before you exit the area to face the dungeons out of order. Then, you could optionally head to Gerudo Training Grounds mini-dungeon to acquire the ice arrows before heading back to the room just before the Water Temple\u2019s boss. This is a lot of effort just to avoid a single obstacle in the game, and if you already have plenty of heart containers then it isn\u2019t really necessary. <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chikara_shuzei\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@chikara_shuzei<\/a> seems to have returned to this area after completing the game to show off what the Ice Arrows can do.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the hardcore <em>Ocarina of Time<\/em> players are likely frustrated from this revelation, as they have more likely than not explored the applications of every item, yet still missed this cool trick. This just goes to show that there\u2019s possibly more to discover within this, and other, N64 games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source:\u00a0<\/strong>chikara_shuzei Twitter Page<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendojo.com\/games\/fan-discovers-new-use-for-ice-arrows-in-ocarina-of-time\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the Ice Arrows have always been pretty useless, seeing as how you can play through the game without them.
