Zelda Challenge Run suggestions

Post by Dr. Axel Link »

So I've been in the mood to replay through one of the Zelda games (pretty much all but the CD-I, Zelda 2, or Skyward Sword)
I always enjoy the simple 3-heart runs, but I feel like maybe adding more onto it.
Currently I'm thinking of doing an enhanced 3-heart run for OoT3D, which is 3 hearts, no deaths, no healing items besides normal hearts, no Zora tunic. I was basing some of the run ideas off of the Uber OoT Challenge, but I don't think I'm ready to perform some of that stuff (No Iron Boots and Zora Tunic Water Temple, No Longshot, Broken Giant's Knife only)
I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for challenge runs, either to add onto enhanced 3-heart run, or for one of the other Zelda games.

Also, I'm looking for suggestions for other Zelda games as well, Something like maybe the No Deaths and 3 Hearts. or not using a certain item in an area. This can apply to any of the other Zelda games.

I can only heal with recovery hearts. No Red/Blue Potions, Fairy Bottles, or Milk. No Potion based healing. I can still have green potions.

Hmm maybe something like: don't use your sword unless it is needed.

I decided to not use sword in combat. It can be used to break pots and cut grass.

Yeah, and so far the Deku Stick Sword is working, but is kinda annoying. Throwing pots can just be a lot more time consuming. I just beat King Dodongo with Deku Sticks and bombs only.
