* Kokiri Sword - necessary. Used to convince Mido into letting you through to see the Great Deku Tree. (Note: you "borrow" this sword at the start of the game, but never actually return it.)
* Kokiri Sword - '''unnecessary'''. Used to convince Mido into letting you through to see the Great Deku Tree. (Note: you "borrow" this sword at the start of the game, but never actually return it.)
The Kokiri Sword can be skipped using the Deku Scrub that sells the Deku Stick upgrade to hover glitch your way onto the bridge and out of the forest. You then proceed to visiting Zelda, and learn the Zelda's Lulaby (observing that Link plays it on the Ocarina of Time, since you don't have the Fairy Ocarina). This removes Mido, allowing you to enter the Deku Tree with out the Kokiri sword. Klydestorm of youtube had a set of videos showing how this is performed, and the consequences of the glitch.

* Deku Shield - necessary. Used to convince Mido to let you through to see the Great Deku Tree. Whether or not you should be forced to lose this by the end of the game is an interesting question.

* '''Hylian Shield - unnecessary.''' While extremely useful for defence, a skilful player can play as far as the Mirror Shield without dying, simply by avoiding enemy attacks.

* Mirror Shield - unnecessary. While this is the only way to hurt Twinrova, you can skip it using the Light arrow B glitch since you don't need to beat the temple at all when you use that.

* Gerudo's Card - necessary. It's the only way to get the Gerudo to open the gate to the Haunted Wasteland.

* Zelda's Lullaby - necessary. When using Light arrow B, we can skip shadow and spirit, but we need magic for the arrows which requires lullaby to get.
* Minuet of Forest - unnecessary. A min% run can enter forest temple and get the bow as a kid and thusly skips that cutscene entirely. Though it is slower than beating Forest up till the bow as an adult.
