Has anyone else had a problem with PH's last boss?

The last boss (forgot it's name) merges with the ghost ship, and you have to fight it by boat. I can't beat it. I fire at the eye's, they blow up, pink balls shoot at me, I try to hit them with my cannon, the cannon misses, I get hurt, the eye's regenrate, and eventualy I die.

Did anyone else have this problem? If not can you help me figure out what I am doing wrong.

Yeah it was a bit tough at first... Thing is, you have to obliverate every eye on each side of the ship. That way they won't come back. Then you take the next side, and then the next. Just be extremely trigger happy and it'll be all ok.

Thanks.

no offense or anything, but I thought the last bosses (including the ship) were pretty easy. Just keep at it and you'll beat it. eventually.

None taken, I wouldn't have posted this here if I was ashamed of it.

I'm just having problems with the ship. The first forms were cake.

Although 1 bazzar thing that is happening with my game is that in the last few boss battles Link moves in slow motion. Is this normal or is my DS messed up?

I remeber watching my mate complete PH's last boss and it did seem quite difficult, but he eventually conquered it and then got stuck on his last stage. :S

the point is you must attack the purple balls he shoots, or else your life will end soon. if no purple balls are in sight, exterminate those eyes. so first any incoming attacks, than the eyes. after awhile the eyes stop regenerating.

Hooray!!! I did it!!! I beat the last boss!!!

or second to last, then the last. I have to say great ending. It was logical, well thought through, pretty darn good. Although I was dissapointed when Bellum (Beldum, Bullem? I don't remember how to spell his, her? It's name.) never talked, I hated that you go through the whole game and the Final boss didn't talk. Ganondorf, Majora...uh, Ganondorf, they all talked, but this one. Oh well no game can be perfect. I think that the Ocean King looked cooler as the Old Man, then the Whale (exept when he almost lopt Links head off with Phantom Blade [not the Phantom Sword, the blade without the handle.])

Have to say my second favorite LoZ game. 9.8 in my book.

I tried to do that but I feel that sometimes my cannon wouldn't work properly and not fire when I want it to. Is it the cannon I'm using or is it just I'm not pointing properly....Are you able to fire cannons in a row or is there some time delay between each shot?

In that last boss battle there is nothing you can do if a purple ball is coming your way and you fail to shoot it down...except perhaps making the ship jump. But if there are more than 1 purple balls you're bound to be hit anyway...I think I already died 10-15 times at this part....(*sigh*)....

How much health did you guys have when fighting the Ghost Ship? I was a fool and didn't upgrade my ship much so I only had four hearts, still found it really easy though (though my heart was pounding and my hands shaking by the end of it).
Bellums final form on the other hand proved to be a complete nightmare.

I had 6 hearts, but it really didn't matter if there were 4,5,6 or 12...@@ The maximum is 7 or 8 right? That's not going to be much help with my sucky skills...

Oh NOES...the last form is worse? ...

Much worse, but then if its only your boat skills that suck it shouldn't be a problem.
As for the boat fight, it shouldn't be too difficult, just touch anything pink that comes at you and pound your DS screen whereever there is an eyeball. I was shaking like a leaf when battling the ghost ship but still managed it first time.
Just remember all you have to do is touch the things, nothing more complicated than that.

some bosses ( like the big bosses) lag up the ds a little but its normal no harm is done

Okay good. Thank you.

I did the same as Lee Chaolan - I didn't bother upgrading my ship's heart meter, so when I realised that I had only four hearts and it was the last boss I felt like I was going to die hopelessly. But I did it...eventually...
