OoT Deku Salesman Locations
by Shadeslayer55
This is a simple list of all the deku salesman in the game, as many of them are in weird places.
The first part is detailed with pictures, but you can find a summary chart at the end for reference. This list was created mainly for usage with OoTRandomizer, with the shuffle-scrub (scrubsanity) option. I need to get around to adding the salesmen in MQ DC.
Feel free to ping me in the OOTR discord if needed (@shadeslayer55#6797). Thanks to Raizuto_Gaming for helping with formatting!
