Hearts

You begin with 3 hearts. The ten Heart Containers add 10 and the 28 Pieces of Heart add 7, because four Pieces make one heart. That makes 20 hearts, the maximum. The Heart Piece Locations page explains how to reach each one.

Lost Maiamai

There are 100 Lost Maiamai, 50 in Hyrule and 50 in Lorule. Return them to Mother Maiamai in her cave beside Lake Hylia; the Maiamai Locations page lists every one. The Maiamai Map in the game counts how many are left in each region.

Maiamai rewards

Every 10 Maiamai buy one Nice upgrade for a tool you bought from Ravio, because rented tools cannot be upgraded. Choose the order yourself; each tool can be upgraded once.

Once the nine upgrades are done, the last 10 Maiamai earn the Great Spin, a stronger spin attack. That brings the total to 100.

Master Ore

Four chunks of Master Ore hide in Lorule, two for each Master Sword upgrade. See the Master Ore Locations for the routes.

The Blacksmith in Hyrule turns the Master Sword into Lv2 for the first two chunks. The Blacksmith in Lorule makes it Lv3 for the other two. A single chunk earns only a reminder.
