			* The game will very rarely give you a Gerudo Mask instead of the original item when collecting an item, possibly leading to unbeatable seeds if you save after obtaining it. While very little is understood about this bug, the common factor appears to be that the original item was a Triforce Piece and that the seed is a [[Multiworld]] seed. {{GhIssue\|257}}

	* Confirming the borrowing of a mask from the Happy Mask Shop and then exiting the shop before receiving the mask will result in the mask trading quest becoming incompletable. The game will set the flag for having borrowed the mask, but it will not be in your inventory. As a result, the owner of the shop will not do business with you until you've sold the mask which you do not possess. In order to be able to leave the shop before receiving the mask, you need to be very quick and confirm the mask while the title card ("Happy Mask Shop") is still up on the screen. This collection delay bug can also occur in other shops, but since other shops don't set flags like the Happy Mask Shop does, the bug is inconsequential elsewhere.

	* There is a Bongo Bongo "quick kill" strat that can cause issues when performed improperly. It involves dropping a bomb down the hole before jumping down and activating the fight. If the player activates the fight before the bomb hits Bongo Bongo, the game softlocks with no opportunity to Save + Quit, so be careful. If the player succeeds in stunning Bongo Bongo with the bomb but fails to "one-cycle", the boss will remain invisible for the rest of the fight (even with the Lens of Truth). Simply drop a bomb at the center of the stage to stun Bongo Bongo again.
