Most masks aren't just found out in the open, you have to do a certain
task to receive them. Some tasks are as easy as talking to a person, while
others may involve several steps. Below are the locations and how to get each
mask, and they are listed chronologically from when you get them in the game.
For descriptions of the masks (what they do) see the section following this.
| Deku Mask | After you get your Ocarina back from Skull Kid, go
to the clock tower and talk to the Happy Mask Man,
who will teach you the song of healing. Once you
play the song of healing, the Deku Mask will fall
off, and into your inventory. |
| Great Fairy Mask | As normal Link in Clock Town, collect the fairy
from the lake, and take it to the Fairy Fountain
in Clock Town. The fairy will give you the Great
Fairy Mask. |
| Blast Mask | While in Clock Town, go to the area where you got
the map on any day at 12:00 AM. An old woman will
walk by with a bag, followed by a burglar snatching
the bag and running off with it. Hit him with your
sword before he escapes through the exit and you
will be rewarded with the Blast Mask. |
| Bremen Mask | On any night at 12:00 AM in Clock Town, go south to
the river, where you will see a man who looks very
similar to the windmill man from Zelda: Ocarina of
Time. Talk to him and hear his story, and he will
give you the Bremen Mask. |
| Mask of Kafei | In Clock Town, during the daytime, go over to the
northeast part of town (where the bomber kid is
blocking your path) and go through the door to the
left of the bomber kid. Once inside, go through the
door on the right, and talk to the woman sitting in
the chair to receive the Mask of Kafei. |
| Rabbit Hood | Once you've collected the Bremen Mask, leave Clock
Town to the south, and take Milk Road over to the
ranch. Go into the back area of the barn where you
will find a man and several chicks walking around
outside. Use the Bremen Mask, and press and hold
the B button to march, collecting all 10 of the
chicks. Once they are all collected, they will hatch
into chickens and the man will give you the Bunny
Hood to show his appreciation. |
| All Night Mask | In Clock Town at 10:00 PM on Day 3, make sure you
have the Giant Wallet and the max. 500 rupees, then
go to the left part of town, where you can buy the
All Night Mask from the shop on the 3rd
day (only after you have stopped the burglar on the
first day at midnight.) |
| Odolwa Guardian Mask | Once you go through the first dungeon (Woodfall
Dungeon) and defeat the boss (Odolwa) you will gain
this mask, which is one of four Guardian Masks in
the game. The remaining three can be collected by
defeating other dungeon bosses and collecting their
Guardian Masks until you have all 4. |
| Mask of Scents | After you defeat Odolwa (Woodfall Temple boss) go
over to the outside area of the Deku Palace. Swim
through the water, taking the path on the left,
until you come to the end with a cave entrance, go
inside and you will see a Deku Minister. Put on your
Bunny Hood, and talk to him. He will challenge you
to a little race through the cave, and if you can
keep up with him until the end, you will be rewarded
with this mask (same type of race as with the
Gravekeeper's Ghost in Ocarina of Time.) |
| Kamaro's Mask | At 12:00 AM on the first night, take the north exit
of Clock Town, and walk forward a bit until you see
some platforms shaped like mushrooms. On one of them
will be a man dancing, jump over to the mushroom
platform and play the Song of Healing for him. This
will remove his mask and put it in your possession. |
| Goron Mask | To get this mask, you'll have to follow a ghost.
Once you get the Lens of Truth, use it to see the
Goron Ghost, and follow it all the way up to the
Graveyard in the main part of Goron Shrine. Play
the Song of Healing for the ghost and you will
receive the Goron Mask. |
| Goht Guardian Mask | Once you finish going through the Snowhead Temple,
and defeat the boss (Goht) you will receive this
mask by stepping in the glowing orb. This is the
2nd Guardian Mask, out of 4 total. The first one
being the Odolwa Guardian Mask from the first
dungeon (Woodfall.) |
| Don Gero Mask | Prior to defeating Goht (the 2nd dungeon boss) go
into the Goron Shrine (where the baby is crying)
and you will see several un-lit torches. Get a deku
stick from one of the pots and run around the
village (wearing your Bunny Hood) lighting every
torch you find. You must be quick, though, or the
torches will go out. Once they are all lit, several
pots on the ceiling will begin to spin. As Goron
Link, do a spiked spin off the top of the Shrine,
breaking the spinning pots 1 by 1 until they are
all broken, revealing a chunk of meat. Take this meat
to the hungry Goron on the ledge in the main part
of Goron Shrine, and after he eats it, you will be
rewarded with the Don Gero Mask. |
| Zora Mask | Once you reach Great Bay, look out into the ocean
until you see a flock of hovering birds. Swim out
to find a Zora lying in the water. Get behind him,
and push him back to the shore, where he will walk
a few steps, then collapse. Play the Song of Healing
to him and you will view a cinema followed by you
receiving the Zora Mask. |
| Stone Mask | After hitting the 2 owl statues in the Great Bay,
warp to Clock Town and go to the swamp, where you
need to buy a red potion from Koume for 20 rupees.
With the potion, warp back to clock town and take
the lower east exit, then call for Epona using
Epona's Song. Ride up and into the mountain terrain
area, hop over the two fences, and use the Lens of
Truth on the circle of stones to the right. Give the
fatigued soldier the potion when he asks for it,
and you will gain the Stone Mask. |
| Gryorg Guardian Mask | Once you finish going through the Great Bay Temple,
and defeat the boss (Gryorg) you will receive this
mask by stepping in the glowing orb. This is the
3rd Guardian Mask, out of 4 total. The first one
being the Odolwa Guardian Mask from the first
dungeon (Woodfall) and the 2nd being the Goht
Guardian Mask from the 2nd dungeon (Snowhead.) |
| Captain's Hat | Take the east exit of Clock Town, and ride epona
through the mountain terrain (hop over the fences
when needed.) Go up, past the graveyard until you
get to the skeleton. Play the Sonata of Awakening
to awaken it, chase it and slash it with your sword
until it gives up. He will then remove the fire
guarding a treasure chest, which you can open to
get the Captain's Hat. |
| Garo Mask | Warp to the owl statue on Milk Road, and make sure
you have at least 10 rupees, then take the path to
the left of the owl statue to come to a little
farm with two guys (same guys from Ocarina of Time.)
If you have Epona with you and talk to one of them,
they'll challenge you to a horse race, but you must
pay a fee of 10 rupees. Pay it and race through the
course (make sure you _never_ use all your carrots
until the absolute end of the race) and once you
win, they'll give you the Garo Mask. |
| Mask of Gibdo | In the main part of Ikana (Ekhana) Valley (where the
music room is, etc.) walk up the ramp on the left
side of the valley until you come to a dried out
riverbed with a cave opening on the other end. Go
through the cave and walk toward the center of the
hole with water in it to make a ghost appear. Play
the Song of Storms to make the river start flowing
again, then go into the music room when the girl
is far away and head into her basement to find a
human/gibdo. Play the Song of Healing to get the
Mask of Gibdo from him, and to turn him back into
normal. |
| Giant Mask | After going through the Stone Tower Temple
(Illusion), you will find a mini-boss named Eyegole
that you must defeat. After he's dead, a treasure
chest will appear and it holds this mask inside. |
| Gryorg Guardian Mask | Once you finish going through the Stone Tower
Dungeon, and defeat the boss (Twin-Mold) you will
receive this mask by stepping in the glowing orb.
This is the 4th Guardian Mask, and final one. The
first one being the Odolwa Guardian Mask from the
first dungeon (Woodfall), the 2nd being the Goht
Guardian Mask from the 2nd dungeon (Snowhead), and
the 3rd being the Gryorg Guardian Mask from the 3rd
dungeon (Great Bay.) |
| Deku Mask | When worn, this mask will transform Link into a
Deku Scrub, allowing him to converse with other
Deku Scrubs in the game. This mask also gives Link
some new, special abilities, such as: Deku Launching
from Deku Launcher pads, and water skipping, meaning
he can do 5 jumps on water before drowning. As Deku
Link, you also have the ability to shoot bubbles
once you learn it from the Great Fairy. |
| Great Fairy Mask | When you wear this mask, if there are any fairies
floating within a certain radius, they will become
attracted to the mask, and come toward you like a
magnet. This is useful to collect those hard-to-get
fairies in dungeons. This works for any colored
fairy in any environment, but it does NOT work for
healing fairies (the ones that look like Navi.) |
| Blast Mask | When worn, press the B button and it will cause
Link's head to explode! Well, in a way, the mask
is actually the item that explodes. This can be
used in place of a bomb, but keep in mind that when
used, it will do a small amount of damage to Link.
Why? If you had a bomb strapped to your face and it
exploded, do you think you'd take no damage by it? |
| Bremen Mask | This mask has a rather special function, when
worn, press and hold the B button and walk around
while still holding B. This will cause link to play
music on a flute, as well as do a little march.
Use this mask to collect chicks and mature them
into full-grown chickens at Romani Ranch. |
| Mask of Kafei | In order to pick up the All Night Mask,
you'll have to wear this mask. After getting the
Blast Mask, on Day 3, with 500 rupees, put on this
mask and talk to the man in the shop on the left
side of town to buy the All Night Mask.
Other than that, I have yet to find any other
significant purpose for this mask. |
| Rabbit Hood | Probably the most useful mask in the game next to
transformation masks, the Bunny Hood greatly
enhances Link's physical abilities. When worn, it
allows Link to run 50% faster than normal Link, as
well as enhances his jumping by 40%. You will use
this mask a lot throughout the game, because some
tasks require you to run fast or jump far in order
to complete them, that's where this mask comes in
handy. You can also wear it if you are in a hurry. |
| All Night Mask | When wearing this mask, you will be given the ability
to talk to Anju's grandmother. Talk to her in the
Inn during the day on Day 1 or 2 and she will give
you a heart piece. |
| Odolwa Guardian Mask | This is used in combination with the 3 other
Guardian Masks, at the end of the game to carry
the moon. There is no way you can not get these
masks, because you get one after each dungeon boss
you defeat. There is no purpose for them in the
game until you reach the ending stages. You cannot
put this mask on either. |
| Mask of Scents | Used to sniff out mushrooms.
|
| Kamaro's Mask | This mask has a similar function to that of the
Bremen Mask, because when you wear it and press/hold
the B button, Link will do a little dance. After
you get it, go over to the 2 dancing girls in Clock
Town on any day during the night, wear the mask,
and press B to teach the girls a new dance. They
will reward you with a heart piece for it. Other
than that, I have not yet found any other use for
this mask. |
| Goron Mask | The Goron Mask is the second transformation mask in
the game, and it allows you to converse with Gorons
in ease. Aside from that, you will also gain some
special abilities when wearing this mask, such as:
Rolling, fire punching (has the same effect as a
bomb) and Goron Stomping (A + B.) You will need this
mask to get past certain parts of the game
(specifically Goron Shrine/Snowhead Temple) and
when you wear it, you can carry some items that are
too heavy for normal Link (Meat, Giant Bombs, etc.) |
| Goht Guardian Mask | This is used in combination with the 3 other
Guardian Masks, at the end of the game to carry
the moon. There is no way you can not get these
masks, because you get one after each dungeon boss
you defeat. There is no purpose for them in the
game until you reach the ending stages. You cannot
put this mask on either. |
| Don Gero Mask | The name corresponds with it's function, because
when you wear the Don Gero Mask, you have the
ability to talk to Frogs! Using this, talk to the
5 frogs (1 in Clock Town, 1 on Death Mountain, 2
in the first 2 dungeons, and 1 in the swamp) to
get a heart piece. So far, there are no other
uses to this mask other than talking to frogs (from
what I've seen, anyway.) |
| Zora Mask | The 3rd transformation mask you'll be collecting
in the game. When worn, this will transform normal
Link into a Zora, allowing him to talk to Zoras,
and have special abilities normal Link doesn't have,
such as: Underwater Swimming, Walking underwater,
throwing swords, and breaking underwater boards.
Useful to collect items underwater that you cannot
get as normal Link. You'll be using this frequently
when you reach the Great Bay area. |
| Stone Mask | When worn, the Stone Mask makes Link invisible
to the naked eye, but only to the Gerudo guards. Use
this mask when you enter the Gerudo Lagoon, and
hitch a ride on one of their boats while wearing the
mask, and they won't even know you exist! The mask
pretty much only has 1 purpose for one area of the
game, and it is not mandatory to use it, but it does
help a bit. |
| Gryorg Guardian Mask | This is used in combination with the 3 other
Guardian Masks, at the end of the game to carry
the moon. There is no way you can not get these
masks, because you get one after each dungeon boss
you defeat. There is no purpose for them in the
game until you reach the ending stages. You cannot
put this mask on either. |
| Captain's Hat | When worn, you can command mini-skeletons to do
certain tasks you couldn't before. As normal Link,
these are enemies, but when wearing the Captain's
Hat, they are your workers. Use this mask to command
the mini-skeletons to break open the tombstone in
the Ikana graveyard right after you receive this
mask. |
| Garo Mask | This mask gives you the ability to talk to those
weird guys with just one red eyeball and a hood
covering their face. After you get the mask, head
over to the mountains with Epona and talk to the
guy sitting on the edge of the cliff near the left
while wearing the mask, and he will leave you a
tree to hookshot up to. You will also encounter
weird Garo enemies when wearing this mask. |
| Mask of Gibdo | You know those mummy-type enemies that shriek when
you come near them? Well, when wearing this mask,
they won't hurt you anymore, but instead, they will
talk to you! Even if you don't want to talk, they
won't even attack you, they'll just pretend you are
one of them (they are easily fooled, I guess.)
Very useful for different areas of the game where
you can find Gibdos. |
| Giant Mask | This mask uses up the most magic out of any other
item or action you do. When worn, Link will become
10 times bigger, but the downfall is that you can
only use this mask when fighting the 4th dungeon
boss (Twin-Mold.) When using it, make sure you have
several green potions, because it eats up magic
within the blink of an eye. |
| Twin-Mold Guardian Mask | This is used in combination with the 3 other
Guardian Masks, at the end of the game to carry
the moon. There is no way you can not get these
masks, because you get one after each dungeon boss
you defeat. There is no purpose for them in the
game until you reach the ending stages. You cannot
put this mask on either. |
