I played the heck out of it when I was a kid, and have replayed it several times since then.<br /><br />Here's what you're doing wrong:<br /><br />1. When you were grinding blobs for XP, you should have been doing more exploring around the areas off the path. There are hidden goodies everywhere (though some are in dark caves), like bags of 50 XP just lying around in the forest. Just like in every Zelda game, you need to EXPLORE instead of going straight for the next dungeon.<br /><br />2. Didn't you wonder what that MAGIC gauge was for? There is a SHIELD spell in the first (eastern) town that you missed. Didn't you hear the girl say, "TALK WITH MY FATHER BEFORE YOU LEAVE TOWN." She was serious about that :p The SHIELD spell makes you take half damage when you activate it (by pressing SELECT after selecting the spell by pressing START).<br /><br />And you can kill those bouncing skull balls -- you just have to hit them a LOT if your ATTACK is not leveled up. But they stay frozen as long as you are hitting them, and are worth 50 XP. <br /><br />Come on, give it a serious attempt!<br /><br />--Mr. ReaperAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068112306642079190.post-2504169800318098322014-07-23T16:44:18.843+01:002014-07-23T16:44:18.843+01:00Worst part of Zelda II is the Death Mountain.

I was terribly disappointed by Zelda 2, but still tried and tried because I was an annoying stubborn kid and never got anywhere when I could have played fun games instead. It taught me to never try hard anything else in life ever.
