  1. Fill the inventory for the type of equipment you want to fail drop equip
  2. Position Link with his back to a wall

Notes

If you zuggle FDE equipment, it becomes a Fail Drop Zuggle.

For the overload method:

- The timing for the X press is very tight, possibly frame-perfect.
- A success requires the message "You can't carry any more \[equipment type\].", and not "You can't take that out here." (although there is at last one frame that gives you the correct message, but fail drops normally).
