=Trials=
Link begins the trials with no armor or equipment save for the [[Sheikah Slate]]; however he can use neither the [[Amiibo (Rune)|Amiibo]] nor the DLC-exclusive [[Master Cycle Zero]] runes. As such, Link must slay his enemies and collect equipment and food where available. Every 5 or 6 floors there's a '''Rest Floor''' with weapons, food, armor (from the '''Middle Trials''' onward) and fairies, as well as a [[Cooking Pot]]. Slain enemies do not drop loot other than weapons, and as such, it's not possible to cook [[Elixir]]s from monster parts, and once finished, other than the Master Sword upgrade, Link does not get to keep the loot accumulated during the trials.

Effects from consuming enhancing meals (for attack, defense, speed, etc.) can carry over during the trials for their effective duration by eating them before entering. However, the meals themselves cannot be accessed once inside the trials, other than the ones cooked in them.


Please note, if playing on [[Master Mode]], all major enemies (Bokoblins, Lizalfos etc.) will be a tier higher than listed here.

=Cooking Strategies=
*Before entering the trials, effects from consuming enhancing meals (for attack, defense, speed, etc.) can carry over during the trials for their effective duration. However, the meals themselves cannot be accessed once inside the trials, other than the ones cooked inside. For that effect, for instance, meals cooked with Dragon parts may provide effects lasting up to 30 minutes depending on the ingredient used.
*Cook as much heart-replenishing food as you can, as food with extra effects may come as scarce due to the limited access to food. Leave the elemental-resistance meals for the circumstances where they may be necessary. Ingredients with effects specific to the upcoming floors may be provided in the Rest Floors.
*Cooking with fairies as an ingredient may be discouraged, as live fairies automatically recover hearts when the meter is completely depleted, preventing death.
*Cooking [[Wood]] bundles will yield [[Dubious Food]], which will replenish a quarter of a heart. Wood happens to be the most abundant resource in most of the trials, so it's a method to replenish hearts without spending precious meals that can be used in the trial floors. This happens to be quite time-consuming, as cooking multiple bundles yield the exact same result as cooking just one since the heart replenishing effect is not cumulative for Dubious Food.
