rating: --- Bellum kill on your first try

Phase 1- Temple bellum
Bellume has a few attacks and they could get annoying if you dont know what to do to get away from him and kill him, but thats what I'm here for. The first part he has one attack that is easy to dodge and only one way to kill him. Kill the gooey eye things that he shoots out and run around him while using your grappling hook to get the weird purple smoke off of him. When all of the smoke is off of him he gets stunned for a moment and goes to the edge where he shows off his big fat eye. Attack the eye like crazy untill a cut scene shows him float up to the second floor. Go for the stairs and watch out for the falling gooey eyeball things as you go up the stairs and once at the top start circling around him once again, and dont fall down in to the pit. Watch out for when his eyeball hands go up and then slash down. Just run away on one of the two directions and you wont get hit. Also when he does the hand thing the gooey eyeballs will fall from the ceiling. Just run away. When in range shoot the eyeballs on his hands until he falls back down in to the water pit below. Go back down and do the same thing you did in part on with the grappling hook, but watch out, he now shoots out 3 gooey eyeballs at the same time as you circle around him. Once again after you attack his eyeball a few hundred more times he floats back up to the second floor. Go up there and do the same thing to the eyes on his hands that you did before to him now, accept now the hands and the gooey eyeball things come a lot faster and the eyes blink so your arrow might miss. Just run around not stopping and wait for your chance when the eyeballs open and the fire. Then, once you got all his eyeball hands, he will go even higher up to the third floor. Go higher up to the third floor and watch out for the falling gooey eyeballs that fall from the ceiling. Once at the top do the same thing that you had to do on the second floor but this time with one more distraction. Now when he lifts all of his hands in to the air he will have all of them come down and flatten you. Just run to the right and you wont get hit. Trust me. Once all of his eyes are again dead he will float up and puke out a light ball thing that Ciela will suck back in and it will give her not only her memories back, but also the power to stop time. Now rush down to the bottom first floor once the cut scenes over to go for another battle. All he does is circle the arena and then go in to the middle and then circle again. To dodge if he gets to close to you, all you have to do is get close to the water pit. Also the only way to hurt him is still on the eye, so you are going to have to find a way to get to it. Ciela will be flying around the room making time balls that will let you stop time if you click on the hourglass on the bottom of the screen and then quickly draw a figure eight. When she makes the ball, collect it and then right when Belllum comes down from the being in the middle thing and is about to hit you, unleash the stop time move and then quickly get behind him and attack his eye. A few of those and he will die.

Phase 2- Ghost ship
Its an easy short stage since you wont have to steer the boat like in other water bosses. The weak points are also well exploited. As Linebeck steers the ship around the gost ship shoot down the oncoming purple balls and then attack the ever growing eyeballs on the ship untill only three are leftt pertruding on the top. Shoot those last few down and then head in for the final fight.

Phase 3- Linebeck phantom
This is the harder of the three phases. The weak spot is on his back so you are going to need to get back there and to do that needs some practice. Stop time and circle around to find that the eye is closed and cant be touched. When you get back to reality Ciela will explain how the eye was closed and it only opens every once in a while so she goes to the back to see it and gets captured. But the good news is that now you can see the eyeball that opens and closes on the top screen. The bad news is now that Ciela is captured she cant make anymore of her time balls. Attack the phantom in the front and watch out for his attacks and after a couple of seconds of lashing out at himm he will jump to the side where you will have to again attack him really fast or he will get you first. After he jumps to the side and you get a few more hits on his hard shell you will have a rubbing duel where if you rub the screen fast enough he will be stunned enough for you to get one blow to his chest and he will be stunned enough to let Ciela go for a second. In that second Ciela will make a time ball and give it to you. Once you get it the phantom will be on the prowl again and you will be watching both screens now. Wait for the eyeball to open on the top screen and then stop time and get to his back and unleash your fury on his eyeball. Do that around five times and he will explode and the ocean king, you, tetra, the great sea, and everyone else in the game will be saved. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! YOU JUST BEAT THE GAME!!!!!

rating: --- Infinite Money

Here's an easy way to get as many rupees as you desire. While sailing the seas, you may from time to time encounter jellyfish-like creatures. When these are encountered, the ship should be stopped (though they will follow the ship even if you don't stop). Shoot these foes with the cannon (the cheapest cannon for your craft will only cost 50 rupees). When they are killed, they will drop a green rupee. Since they split apart when shot, you will be able to get multiple rupees per creature. Keep riding your ship around finding more of these creatures, and you can accumulate a good amount of rupees, as many as you'd like.

rating: --- Manipulation and Money

Locate the Traveler's Ship (the guy who gives you all of the treasure). Kill all of the enemies on board his ship, and then talk to him. After receiving the treasure, exit his ship and save your game. Turn off your DS, turn it back on, and head into the DS settings. Adjust the time and date (moving it forward one day, for instance), and restart your game. Return to the Traveler's Ship, repeat the same process as before, and you'll receive more treasure. Stock up using this method, and then go sell all of your goods. You can get 9,999 Rupees easily in about twenty minutes doing this.

rating: 5.00/5.00 More hours time

There is a few different ways of getting more time in the hourglass. One way is to beat a boss which gets you two minutes, and another way is to find a treasure chart and then salvage the sand from the ocean.

rating: --- New Items

Climb aboard the ship called The Prince of the Red Lion, where a character suspiciously similar to Link can be found. You can fight him if you want, over and over again. Earning a certain amount of hits on him will net you new items. For instance, scoring under 100 hits in the time allotted will net you an item like a Pearl Necklace, or a Princess Crown. More than 100 hits will get you a better item, like a Heart Container.

rating: --- skeleton's wisdom

In the entrance of the temple of the ocean king at a certain point of the game three skeleton's at the entrance will have some wisdom to share for a price and heres everything they say in order.

Temple shortcuts
Secret one:
If you have an item that can go through holes in walls Head to the upper left corner of the 5th floor.

Secret two:
you can jump the third basement floor with this item If you have a key, you can even use it on the lower floor.

Secret three:
You can pass through the 11th floor with ease. Go to the 12th floor once first.

Handy techniques
Secret one:
Yellow pots will not be magically restored until you exit the temple. But curious things happen to blue and red pots when you change floors.

Secret two:
Weapons other than the boomerang work to defeat the phantom eyes. Set bombs along their path of movement.

Secret three:
Red pots can be taken to the floor below. But safe zones that you've created will disappear when you change floors.

Phantom secrets
Secret one:
Phantoms have a weakness: the eyes on their backs. Shoot them with an arrow there to halt them...for a moment...

Secret two:
Powering up your spirits will affect the Phantoms...Spirit gems are hidden in the temple.

Secret three:
If you think safe zones are really safe, think again... Use the phantoms' backs and uneven terrain to your advantage...

Tantalizing wisdom' right?

rating: --- Temple of the Ocean King

This only works if you have the Grappling Hook. On the third floor, you know, the one with the Force Gems, you can skip it to save time. Go North West, or North, to the place where the Phantom patrols and there is a yellow pot. Go in front of the two torches, (it is not impossible, it just takes a few tries.) with the Phantom well out of the way, and use the Grappling Hook to make a rope line between them. Make Link lean back against them, so they make a catapult, and let go. DO NOT RUN FORWARDS BECAUSE THEN IT WON'T WORK. You'll then be on the next floor. I bet you discovered that already. Also, on most of the floors, if you kill all the Phantoms (spoilers ahead!) with the Phantom Sword, doesn't work if you stun them, a Treasure Chest appears! It always contains something good.

rating: --- The Fire Sword

To acquire the Fire Sword, get ten fairies. Then, head to the Fairy Princess near the Sun Temple, where you will receive the sword.

rating: --- TIPS

24513: dont go in that order, but go in the order from one to five. 1 is in the fouth position so hit 4 first, 2 is in the first position so hit the 1 second, and so on.
1=4, 2=1,3=5,4=2, 5=3. the order should be: 41523.

Masked beedle: he will appear if you play the game through 10-12 miday or midnight, he sells golden ship parts sometimes too.

Extra time in temple of ocean king: buy 2 bottles of purple potion. when your time runs out in the temple you do not get killed. so each time you get hurt walking, you can still survive by getting into safe zones or picking up hearts. when you die the purple potion will work in and heal you. and keep doing this until you run out of your second bottle. this should buy you about 3 to 4 minutes.

Enemy ships: If you see enemy ships with sails, there is always treasure that you can salvage when you kill them. you can find ship parts and other good stuff.

Big fish: If you dont want to waist time fishing and then getting a little skippyjack, you can always see what fish you are fishing by letting it jump up first. just pull hard till the metre reaches the top and the fish should jump and then you can see it. if you dont like the fish press the arrow on the bottom screen and you will stop fishing.

they weren't superb tips, but they should help you some time in the game. enjoy!

rating: --- want to trade ship parts and treasure?

it's real simple! on mercay island you see that little island, well go up to that area and keep going left and plant a hole bunch of bombs along that area of rock and you should blow up an area .....go in(if it dosen't work the first time than try different spots). go through on the island is TAG MODE! It will also appear on your menu screen (adventure,battle,ect.)There's also a chest there to and step on the switch on the bottom. And .....DON'T FORGET TO SAVE!!!!

rating: --- neptuna

This is the way to get the legendary Neptuna (which is like the Hyruleian pike)

1. First you must attain the fishing rod by going along the story line.

2.Catch one of every type of fish (there are 3)and go to the guy that gave you the fishing rod.

3. The sword fish symbol will start to appear on your map.

4. In a random event instead of a rusty sword fish you will get the legendary neptuna.

I have seen him once but he's pretty hard to catch so I didn't get him. If you have any questions PM me.

rating: 5.00/5.00 Chickens

The chickens on Zauz Island, and Mercay Island can get mad at you. Go up to them and hit them with any weapon a bunch of times. The one chicken you hit will turn red, and then a bunch of chickens will attack you.

rating: --- Diamondmaster10's Boomerang Tips for biggenners.

• 1: Tap the touch screen if you attacking something, like the lame birds near first boss

rating: --- easy ship parts

1. if you have the northeastern map, go to the very top and in the middle theres an island. there are ships really close so you can kill them and salvage ship parts. then go back to island and leave. ships will respawn. this is easy, i got three full ships in three days, and in about a week, i got full ships of all ships where the peices sell for 50 or 800 rupees. also, you can get pieces that sell for 1500, but no gold ones.
2. keep resetting your clock one day ahead and visit beedle. in a day i got all the rest of the parts so i have all of them now. also you can find expensive treasures for dirt cheap sometimes. like a regal ring (1500 rupees) for 230.
ps. if ur a VIP member for beedle, dont bother using masked beedle cuz he doesnt give a discount. so everything is ridiculously expensive even though you might get rarer stuff. if your not vip, just shop with regular anyway cuz you'll be a vip real soon.

rating: --- every day shopping

every day is a count as a real day in the game. so if the mask vender comes and says he'll stay for 1 week, he'll stay until the end of the week.

to make my self clearer this would be how it happens.

arrive monday, leave next monday.

hope i helped!

rating: --- Extra treasure/ship parts

After getting the phantom sword, you can kill the phantoms in the Ocean King's Temple. When you kill every phantom on a floor, a chest will appear with treasure or a ship part in it.

rating: --- Fast Money

A great way to get money is to beat the Archery/Goron Game, depending on which you are best at, do this many times and the prizes you win are always worth a good price. If you do well you will often win ship parts worth 800 rupees. Sell all you win on Mercay Island and within no time you will have max rupees.

rating: --- Fastest way to cut grass

The fastest way to cut the grass around islands is to use the hammer. Doing this can also get some good money.

rating: --- Finding Freedle

To find freedle, firstly, go to mercay island and walk to the temple of the ocean king. On your way you'll find a crack in the wall. Bomb it open. Go in and jump across the ledges and shoot the eye. A bridge should come out. Go out of the cave through and shoot the eye there as well. A statue should come out. Hit it, and point the light to the temple of the ocean king. Follow the light and bomb the area where the light hits. If done correctly, another cave will appear. Make your way through, and you'll get to the North-East Isle on Mercay island. Make sure you hit the switch on the small isle.

rating: --- FISHING TIPS HERE!!!

Want to learn how too fish better???
1. start pulling even if the fish isn't on the line.
2. to make catching the fish easier make small circles.
3. to see what fish is on the line make the DANGER bar full(to the top)then reel it in a bit and fill the meter again.
4. if you go for the swordfish shaped shadow you better be hoping it is a Rusty Swordfish 'cause that's all it is.
5. 3 circles equaul one yard away from your ''fishy''.

rating: --- free sunken treasure

to get free sunken treasure whenever you see a pirate ship go for the big one, and shoot it down. and right where they sink there will be a red X on the map and you can salvage it for a ship part to treasure but if you use the cyclone slate, fish,salvage another treasure of basicly anything to make the sea chart leave the top screen the x will disappear.

rating: --- Freebie Card

When you achieve a silver membership to Beedle's store, you will receive a freebie card. This will allow you to buy one item for free. I suggest that you save this until Beedle has a golden ship part in stock, which sometimes cost in excess of 7000 rupees.

Instead of jumping a hazard, try blasting both creatures that are holding the hazard. This will sink the hazard instead of making the ship jump over it.

By defeating pirates at sea, sometimes a X will appear on the map where their ship sank. You can go here and use the salvage arm to find some treasure.

rating: --- uncharted island

this is a tricky island located south east and very close to "bannan island." the trick here is to find all the stone statues and hit them in order to open a path to a cave, but there is no map nor is there any good clue to finding the order they must be hit. the only clue is " first is the rudder then comes spray, then it paddles and then sees a way." the trick is to go around the island very carefully and sketch your own map with your stylus. if you have done the sketh correctly you should have drawn what looks like a whale. then find the four statues and mark them on your map. the statue on the whales tail(the rudder) is hit first, then hit the statue on the whales blowhole(the spray), then the statue on the whale mouth(the paddle) and then the statue on the whale's eye(sees a way). after hitting all four you will be able to meet the chief frog and get the golden frog slate.

rating: --- Weird Stuff.............

1. This only works if you have the Grappling Hook. In the Temple Of The Ocean King, go the the third floor, you know, the one with the Force Gems, go North, to the place where the Phantom patrols and there is a yellow pot. Go in front of the two torches, and use the Grappling Hook to make a rope line between them (it is not impossible, it just takes practice) and lean Link against them to make.... a catapult! Let go, and he will be catapulted, and you can go through the door! By the way, do not run forward, because then it won't work.

2. The World of Chickens.
You can pick up a chicken with a Grappling Hook. You can make two chickens bump into each other with the Grappling Hook. You can jump off places and go further with the chickens.

3. In Harrow Isle, if you keep digging even though you have had ten goes, you get warned, then fined 100 Rupees, then EVERY RUPEE YOU HAVE, then you get banned from the island forever. You can pay a fee to get back, but this is hard, cos you have NO MONEY!

4. In the North East Sea, there is an island, where there is an oppotunity to win a Heart Container! It is called Maze Island. It is North East to the Isle Of Ruins.

A word of advice. Don't be afraid about fighting Bellum. Even though it is long, it is easier than some bosses.
