Link's quest through Termina will have him at the mercy of some pretty
evil bosses. Here's some tips on how to take them out and win
back the vile masks that imprison them. Odolwa  This is a tough battle. Odolwa is a huge blade-dancer with a sword at least five times the size of Link! You can attack him with arrows, or use your sword. Both work effectively, so it comes down to whether you want to close in on him, or keep to the sidelines. Be careful of his sword slashes, as that thing's got a pretty far range. He'll also do a spin attack from time-to-time, which you'll need to avoid if you don't want to take some heavy damage! Once in a while he'll also call down some beetles to attack you. Just slash them with your sword to dispose of them. You'll know his time is nearly over when he starts attacking you with more and more ferocity. Goht  Goht isn't the toughest boss out there, but he does take a little while to beat. When you first come in, Goht will be frozen! So, get out your Fire Arrows and take a pot shot at the iced-over guy. Once he runs off, turn into Goron Link. Now, the idea here's a little tricky, so listen up: you'll need to roll around and chase Goht around the "arena" while dodging his bomb, rock, and lightning attacks, and smashing the pots for magic refills. When you get in close, roll into his rear end. That'll get him pretty angry, and he'll run off again. Sometimes, he'll fall down as well, so be sure to take advantage of his falls. When bits of rock start falling from the ceiling, you'll know he's almost gone. Gyorg  Now this is what's called a "tough cookie." Gyorg is, as you can probably tell, a gigantic fish that swims around his chamber all day, waiting for poor suckers just like Link to fall in. Be sure to have a couple of bottled Fairies ready, as you're going to lose lots of life on him. There's two ways you can fry the fish: stand on the platform in the middle of the pool, and shoot Gyorg with arrows to stun him, then jump in, put on your Zora Mask, and take some slices at him, or simply stay as Zora Link through the whole fight and throw your boomerang-fins to stun the big guy, then run up and dice him. Be careful when he opens up his mouth, as a bunch of mini-Gyorgs will swim out and harass you. Keep at it, and pretty soon you'll flush this fish. Twinmold  The final dungeon boss, and he...er, they're no pushovers. First, use the Giant's Mask to transform into Giant Link, and slash at the two worms' tails with your sword as they jump in and out of the sand. The mask uses up a ton of magic, though, so either stock up on Green Potions, or you can slash the pillars around the area while Giant Link. Not much will happen at first, but then, take off your mask and you'll find some magic jars scattered around the area, for your convenient use. If you end up running out of magic, it is possible to attack the worms as normal Link, but it's not even worth trying unless you have to, because you have to hit them as soon as they jump out of the sand. Each of them take quite a few hits, so be prepared for a tough fight. Majora's Mask  The game's final boss is one of the hardest in any Zelda game, but with perseverance you can send this evil back from where it came. Phase One - Majora's Mask  The only way to damage the first form is to hit it in the back. Wait for it to start spinning on the ground, then do a spin attack to knock it to the ground. Then give it another slash before it can turn around again. You can also wait for it to dive down at you, dodge it with the Bunny Hood, and hit it from behind with an arrow. After you hit it about three times, the four Guardian Masks will come from their wall sockets and begin attacking you with light beams. Three arrows apice will get rid of the masks. Then, just focus your attention on Majora. Phase Two - Majora's Incarnation  Probably Majora's easiest form. Stand in one place and wait for Majora to come near you, then slash it with your sword as much as you can. If it doesn't come near you, or you just don't feel like waiting for it to come near you, use a Light Arrow on it to make it fall over, then run up and give it a few smacks with your sword. Phase Three - Majora's Wrath  Definitely the strongest form of Majora. He will use his tentacles to whip you. Don't bother dodging, because he will almost always hit you. Stay in one area for a bit and after he's done whipping you for one round, fire off a Fire Arrow before he can get another smack at you. You can also try using other forms to stun him. When he's stunned, fire a Light Arrow at him. Soon, he'll start dodging your attacks and you'll need to be quicker with your shots (and most likely use one of Link's transformations). Soon, he'll be finished, and the land of Termina will be free once again! |
