My complete Desert Palace walkthrough for The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Played in real time on Snes9x v1.43 rerecording with rerecords used to optimize video length.
Equipment checklist: 6 3/4 Hearts, Ice Rod
The Ice Rod can be found in a cave on the north-east shore of Lake Hylia.
[02:32] Piece of Heart
If you have 6 3/4 Hearts before you enter the dungeon, you can complete your 7th with this Piece of Heart.
[03:07] No place to hide
Be quick about getting through this room because the only safe point is behind the statue at the very bottom. Just keep running even if you get hit.
[03:49] Boss: Lanmolas
The Ice Rod will make quick work of these giant sand worms—if you can hit with it. The Ice Rod's shots travel very slowly and the Lanmolas can only be damaged on their heads, which makes timing your shots difficult. Otherwise, use your sword and remember that the dirt clods will always fly out diagonally until there's only one Lanmola left, at which point they'll fly out in all eight directions.
I also have another no damage video here:
