Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly
Hit the Switch in the First Room
This switch can be hit with the slingshot, boomerang, bomb, and bombchu. It can also be hit with the sword or a deku stick with a difficult hover off the nuts of the Octoroks.
Big Octo Skip
This is the biggest sequence break for this dungeon. With it you can skip everything between getting the Boomerang and the last room before the boss. It skips killing the tentacles, Big Octo, and a few other rooms. There are two parts: getting over the gap in the room with the raising platform and getting through the door.
Part 1 - Get Across the Gap
Skipping Bigocto requires you to get over a large gap in the raising platform room. There are multiple methods for crossing it, but these are the most useful.
Method 1 - Megaflip to ledge
A well angled megaflip from the left ledge will make it
Method 2 - Jellyfish Megaflip
A more difficult megaflip from a Biri can also make it over the gap. The area where you can start the megaflip from and still make it is small, and requires you to be as close to the ledge as possible. By luring the Biri, you can give yourself enough time to set up for a megaflip from it. Having ISG greatly helps position yourself near the ledge.
Method 3 - Jellyfish hover
Discovered by CHC
Using the Biri, you can hover up to the ledge after the miniboss, and then lower the platform like normal.
Part 2 - Open the door
Method 1 -Bottle Switch Trick
The first method found. You need a bottle with a bug or fish to do this trick. Using ocarina items allows you to keep the item in the bottle.
Ocarina items method:
- Drop and re-catch bottle item
- Backflip onto the switch, pressing bottle then sword while in midair
- Wait about half a second then press B to stop playing the Ocarina
- Open the door quickly
Bottle switch trick:
- Drop and re-catch bottle item
- Backflip onto the switch, pressing bottle in midair
- Open the door quickly
Method 2 - Ruto Throw
Discovered by ?
This was the second method found, and significantly harder than the bottle switch trick. However, it can be done without a bottle, so it was used commonly until Method 3 was discovered.
Method 3 - Ruto Throw Skip
Discovered by Bloobiebla
This was the latest method found, and the fastest, and best of all, it only requires a sword.
- Line up with middle of door
- Put sword away
- Turn around to face switch
- Hold Z until you have pressed the switch
- Press A twice to roll twice
- Press B to do a vertical slash
- Press A to do a jumpslash, ensuring that you wait for the full recoil of the vertical slash
- Hold up, and quickly roll forwards
- Mash the A button to quickly open the door before it locks, or pause buffer to the frame shown in the video
Activate Switch Before Barinade from Below
Method 1 - Bombchu
Line up against the wall beneath the switch and pull out a bombchu. Release it on the 5th flash and it should activate the switch.
Method 2 - Boomerang
Discovered by ZFG
Pull out the boomerang and aim as high as possible, and just a little left of the web. As soon as you release it, start sidehopping and when it starts coming back it should hit the switch.
