The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess
A Complete Bestiary for use with both versions of the game
By: The Infamous DarkSamurai you've never heard of
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1=Version History
11/19 (before guide)= Wii came out, and my heart hurt when Zelda was on it.
Have since come to terms with that.
11/23 (0.00%)= Asked The message board about FAQ
11/24 (0.15%)= Created ASCII art and title, developed sections, decided on
presentation of guide. Wrote introduction. Enabled Search function through
use of ToC labels. Added "Merchant Section" after many hours of ignoring
the guide, then reviving my topic on the TP boards.
11/25 (0.16%)= Added Catchphrase section to NPCs and a price list to the
mini-games.
11/26 (0.18%)= Tuned up search, on the offchance that anyone needed to know
exactly how to find everything. Added another Thank you, made the copy-
right clearer, and added a drop section to the monsters. Drop may or may
not be revised by contribution time. Added style to ASCII(formerly on
left margin) Cut "Appearances" because of the hassle involved at looking
at them.
11/27 (0.21%)= Added a difficulty section to the monsters and bosses. Outlook
is good from message board reception. Finalized trademarks, so no confusion
there. Realized my GameFAQs dates were off, and changed VH accordingly. Cut
drops because it just didn't matter enough to waste time looking to see if
maybe blues dropped from the monster as well. Added weapons section, with
high hopes of putting it to good use. Added 2 more "Thank You"s
12/9 (0.22%)= Fixed the rating of spoilers inside the guide. Eagerly awaiting
the release. Have been told repeatedly that this was a waste of time. Also
added The Wii release date to this and the ammo section to weapons. Added
clearer descriptions to "Weapons List". Considered putting all names
into the ToC.
12/12 (0.22%)= GameStop pushed back the release 1 day, so now I have my GCN
Edition. Expect ALOT of change to happen in a relatively short time. As
always when writing, I have my trusty notebook so I'm not considered a CPU
hog by my family. This breakthrough has made this the "Best Day Ever"
[Spongebob Squarepants]
12/23-24 (0.42%)= Ok so I lied about updates. Heres a whole new bundle of
information that I got during my playthrough. Most of this is from
memory though. 54:37 is my cleartime with 19.4 hearts and almost
all the upgrades to items. First I did the entire weapons list.
Then I cut Catchphrases because of the non-catchy things that NPCs say.
Since I'm adding names now, I'm going to go ahead and say that all enemies
will be named according to other LoZ titles, or what is most appropriate
according to appearances/actions/in-game descriptions. I.e. the monkeys call
their leader "boss", so his name is "Monkey Boss". Also noticed severe
flaw in searching. Changed it from Roman Numerals to Standard Numbers.
I almost finished the monster list after working for 5 hours(1AM-6AM),
but I couldn't. Monster list is organized pretty randomly, which makes
me happy I made this search friendly.
12/25 (0.48%) Merry Christmas, I suppose. More monsters are here, as well
as a couple thank yous for names. I had no idea there would be so many
when I started, but I am almost done. Next is bosses. Also a note, I am
not including hidden dig spots for monster locations. Turns out I
couldn't finish tonight after all, due to lack of names. So many monsters
*sigh*
12/27 (0.49%) I got distracted by 4 new games and being allowed to borrow
KH2, but more is finally here. Maybe I'll get to bosses, but no promises.
12/29-30 (0.51%) Ok, no distractions anymore. I'm wide awake and ready to get
close to finishing this. I worked well into the night, and some of the
morning, and I am finally close. Merchants gets a big check, but I'm not
submitting until I double-check every store. Monsters are almost done.
12/31-1/1 (0.70%) Today is the day I finish Monsters. Well it may go into
2007, but I start today. It is official. At 1/1/2007 @ 7:57AM EST, I
finished the monster section. Now to bosses. I'll go back and check
Merchants when I finish that. I'm about 1/4 of the way through bosses.
Went to the Message boards to announce my accomplishment, and was met
with "I want to see it". The outlook is promising. Oh, I almost
forgot in my excitement, I cut the NPC section due to labor-intensive and
lack of importance.
1/3 (0.73%) "All things in moderation." I took a break, but I'm back.
Added 5 more bosses.
1/4 (0.75%) It came to my attention today that Prima gave a lot of
crazy names to the monsters in this game. My guide will have nothing
to do with a possibly non-Nintendo sanctioned walkthrough. No e-mails
about names unless it strays from A.)Other LoZ titles or
B.)the Nintendo Power guide.
1/6 (0.77%) Added bosses up to "Wyvern Knight"
1/7 (0.85%) Finalized all prices in the merchant section. <-Huge % boost
is because section is truly complete now. Added bosses up to Moblin
General 4.
1/9 (1.00%) I don't have long to work on this today, but I made it past
the Arbiter's Grounds and have edited those bosses for accuracy. I also
edited many of the enemies that I found new or better strategies for. I
plan on at least doing the last 3 bosses before going on to finish the
last 1, Blizzeta. Ok I'm almost done, got the Blizzeta strategy from
watching my brother do it and looking very closely. Seeing it reminded
me of my own fight, making the strategy all the better. It seems I was
able to finish after all. *added after first submission* (1.05%)
I added strategies to the sword, frozen lancers and stalfos at the request
of a reader. I also noticed that the last few stores are missing a
location guide and have fixed those as well. Some bosses lacked ratings.
I'm sorry for the number of errors in my submission.
1/10 (1.06%) Changed wallmaster strategy a tiny bit and am now allowing
this to be used on Neoseeker.com.
1/11 (1.15%) Changed alot since last update, but I'm not fixing errors,
instead I am adding to the guide. The only true edits were a name change
and one or two strategy changes. Now I am allowing this to be used on
Twilight-Princess.org.
1/20 (1.20%) Added a new monster, tweaked a couple I already had here, and
gave my permission to supercheats.com. I have never recieved a confirmation
e-mail from neoseeker to join the site, so I have taken away their right to
use it. Only because it was never posted there sadly.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3=Introduction
This is my first real FAQ. It is a very special FAQ, because as far as I know
it is the only one of it's kind in existence. A complete Bestiary of a Legend
of Zelda game. One would have been much needed for The Wind Waker, but instead
someone wrote a photography guide, which is just as good. The purpose of this
is to keep you from spending a long time fighting a common monster that you
just can't kill, or spending hours looking through a walkthrough to find a
boss strategy, only to try it and have it not work. More on the boss
section later, but it will contain spoilers, right now I just hope you have
fun with this guide. Searching is easy, just tap Ctrl+F and type
in the number of the section plus its own letter. On a sidenote, I get
"giddy" at the thought of how long I waited for this (the game, not the
guide). All that is left for me to say is enjoy the work of almost a month.
NOTE=I am personally disappointed with Prima, because they made names up
for monsters that were not obviously LoZ classics. This guide was done
only by the precedence set by previous Zeldas and new (and appropiate)
names were given based off of in-game information or appearances or at
the very least actions. Any alterations in this guide will come from
Nintendo Power's Guide, because to change it to fit the Prima guide will
mean a complete overhaul of the guide.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4=Your Armory
The most diverse section, this needs an intro. This is for being able to find
and use everything in Link's power. Because of that, this is second in the
running in spoiler value. You have been warned.
(Search Item) 4#
Weapon/Item= #####
Found or Earned= #####
Location of origins= ##### (Non-mini-boss items will have a short
walkthrough)
Use-ability= ##### (Is it worth using constantly? Rating of 1-5, where 5 is
most useable. Ranged items have tended to be easier on the Wii, where as
up close and personal were GameCube friendly. This rating is based on GCN.)
Upgrades to.... (For any item that gets better over time. Typically usage
doesn't change, it just gets better at what it does.)
Becomes ________ when combined with bow. (for all relevant items)
Used with/Uses.... (More for ammo than anything else)
4a
Wooden Sword
A little of both, earned by helping Rusl before the game starts, and found
in the interior of your treehouse.
Day 2 of Ordon Village, at the very end of the day.
A definite 5, this is the most used weapon of the arsenal.
Upgrades to Ordon Sword, Master Sword, Sol-powered Master Sword
Used with Wooden/Ordon Shield, Hylian Shield
Note=Neat trick, by sheathing your sword immediately after defeating most
enemies, you will do a small slice and twirl.
4b
Slingshot
Earned through purchase at the store
Day 2 beginning-middle, depending on when you buy it. Requires completion of a
few sidequests to earn the necessary rupees.
Rating of 2. Fun to shoot, but very little dmg potential.
Upgrades to Hero's bow. Not lost after finding Bow.
Uses pumpkin seeds(found), or deku seeds(earned).
4c
Bombs
Bought, from Barnes after Goron Mines
See Barnes after finishing the Goron Mines and he will offer a bomb bag for
120 Rupees.
Rating of 3, its really only good against rocks unless in arrow mode.
Upgrades to Water Bombs, Bomblings (interchangeable)
Creates Bomb Arrows
4d
Hero's Bow
Earned by fighting Armored Goron Sentry
Refer to Mini-Boss Section
Rating of 5, because a bow is the ultimate multi-tasker.
Creates Marksman Arrows, and Bomb Arrows
Uses arrows
4e
Water Bombs
Bought after purifying Lanayru Province
Three people sell this, but one is over-charged...at first. First is Barnes,
second is a Zora literally in front of Lakebed Temple, and third is the
Castle Town General Store(WAY overpriced, but you can change that at some
point after this.)
Still a 3, but at least rocks underwater are no match now. Can have up to 15
in a standard bomb bag.
Upgrades to Bombs, Bomblings (interchangeable)
Creates Bomb Arrows, but why bother? Arrows can't go underwater.
4f
Bombling
Bought from Barnes after finishing the Arbiter's Grounds.
Can also be bought from the Castle Town shop after Barnes starts making them.
This gets a 4, but only because of the partial homing ability and insane
range. 10 in a standard bag, not good at the edge of cliffs.
Upgrades to Bombs, Water Bombs (interchangeable)
Creates Bomb Arrows, but again, why? Only 10 in a bag.
4g
Clawshot
Earned by defeating Giant Toad
See Mini-Boss section
Rating of 4, it can stun shortly, bring items to you, or allow travel.
No theft was put into this game like in Wind Waker, so be content with
stun.
Upgrades to Double Clawshot.
4h
Gale Boomerang
Earned by defeating Monkey Boss
See Mini-boss section
Rating of 4. Longer stun(mostly) than a clawshot, longer range, less
accuracy with item retrieval. Can also turn windmills and blow leaves out
to reveal rupees or hearts or bring guay and keese within striking range.
4i
Spinner
Earned by defeating Cursed Sword
See mini-boss section
Rating of 1. This isn't even really a weapon, I don't think. It can hurt,
alot, but only near a spinner-track. Keeps you from dying in quicksand.
4j
Marksman Arrows
Made from Hawkeye+Hero's Bow
The Hawkeye can be bought immediately after escorting Telma and Ilia from
Castle Town or after doing the "Show me your Skills! Pt2" sidequest.
Only available at Malo Mart-Kakariko.
Hawkeye gets a 0(not a weapon). The arrows get a 5, but maybe a scope
on a Bow is overrated. Very useful if you have a low budget and can't
find arrows, especially in the Cave of Ordeals. Can be used to take
out Torch Slugs, Roc, Moblin Archers, Keese, Guay, or any other fast
or small enemy.
Already a combo
4k
Bomb Arrows
Made from any bomb+Hero's Bow.
See each respective bomb for the How-to of getting them.
Rating of 4. This is the safest possible way of making things go boom.
So much fun to use that it tends to be bomb/arrow expensive. I only
recommend that you use normal bombs unless you have no choice but to
use the other 2 types.
No difference among the 3 bomb types, except ammo-wise.
Already a combo
4l
Ball and Chain
Earned by defeating Ball and Chain Knight
See Mini-Boss section
Rating of 5, but it has a lot of faults. Makes Link walk slowly, hard to aim
,easy to interrupt. But it has the ability to instantly kill many monsters,
destroy Moblin sentry towers, and break large ice blocks. Acts as a
frontal shield against most enemy attacks unless you are aiming it.
4m
Dominion Rod
Earned by defeating Ancient Darknut
See Mini-boss section
Rating of 4 in the Temple of Time, and 1 in the overworld. The dungeon-only
4 is because of the focus of the dungeon involves a giant hammer. Can smack
in a really wimpy way while controlling statues, unless the statue has a
weapon itself.
Upgrades to Weakened Dominion Rod, then back to Dominion after a short time.
4n
Double Clawshot
Earned by defeating Wyvern Knight
See Monsters section
Rating of 4. Is no different in any way offensively, but does allow for
multi-grapples in the right places.
4o
Iron Boots
Reward for beating Bo in a sumo match
Renado tells Link to go see Bo in order to best the Gorons in a feat of
strength. After visiting Bo, he offers to teach Link the ways of Sumo. Bo
gives you these for being a good student.
Rating of 1. Only used as a weapon if you roll while these are equipped.
Upgrades to Magnetic Boots at large magnets.
4p
Teeth and Claws
Wolf weapons
Go into Twilight or Transform
Rating of 4, but there is a nice 5 hit combo and continuous bite.
4q
Dark Energy Field
Given by Midna if she is with you, in wolf form
Fight 3 Shadow Beasts in Faron Woods, kill 2 twice, then Midna lets you have
use of her dark energy whenever you want. Killing all 3 without it is
impossible oddly enough. 1 stays alive until she gives you this.
Rating of 5, but being hit does cancel it. Charge it like she tells you
to, then release after selecting the right number of targets.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
V=Monster List
There is a little guide to reading this section,
(Search Item) V#(#)
Name= #####
Location= ##### (Multiple places are seperated by commas, and if they are
found everywhere that will be specified as well. Hyrule Field
is any of the areas in the main overworld mini-map, with the exception
of Lake Hylia. It's the map with Castle Town in the middle.)
Methods= ##### (A partial description and way to kill it)
Difficulty= ##### (This a personal 1-10 of how it was for me.)
Notes= ##### (I axed ToD and World because enemies are different among the
worlds)
5a
Keese
These are everywhere, they come in 3 varieties. Normal, fire, and ice.
Anything can kill a keese...no seriously. I kicked one once w/ Iron Boots and
it died.
1, a very low 1 at that
Notes= Don't bother with anything except sword or clawshot to kill these.
5b
Bokoblin Sentry
Faron Woods, Hyrule Field, Forest Temple, Cave of Ordeals, Ordon Village
These things fall to almost anything. Arrows are bad here, but the rest is
just fine.
2, they stand a chance in a fight, but more often than not you will kill them
before getting hit.
Notes= These are blue and they carry clubs. Their health is vastly smaller
than that of a Soldier.
5c
Bokoblin Soldier
Hyrule Field, Hyrule Castle, Cave of Ordeals
These are resilient, but killable. Takes 10 arrows to kill, so the sword is
the key to victory here. Knock it down, then finish it or use Mortal Draw.
4, just because of their massive health.
Notes= Red and armed with a large-bladed sword. More appear as time passes
story-wise.
5d
Sprinter
Hyrule Field
The keese of Hyrule Field, they throw eggs at you and run away. Smack 'em
with Epona, hit 'em with an arrow, stun 'em with your rang and cut them, it's
entirely up to you.
1, they move fast, but not for more than a few seconds.
Notes=The only reason to kill these is for worms(fishing tackle) that are
stored in a bottle
5e
Purple Chu
Almost everywhere
So easy to kill, but be warned. These combine with each other, and are the
dominant color in multi-chu fusion. Clawshot to death or cut it.
2, they melt, but they move fast and can get the drop on you from above.
Notes=The jelly of the Purple Chu is deadly, causing you to lose all but 1/4
of a heart when drunk. The dominance chain is: Purple>Red/Blue>Rare Gold.
Purple Chu also has the ability to drain 2 hearts, restore 2 hearts, or
restore all hearts, but I wouldn't consider it a Cave of Ordeals item.
5f
Yellow Chu
Caves, Cave of Ordeals
They fall apart at the first attack, unless they have fused to make bigger
chu. They only combine with themselves, and not often are other chu nearby
when you see these. Keep the Claw handy, or use your sword.
2, all chu drop on your head and move fast around you.
Notes=Yellow jelly is flammable, and thus works well in a lantern.
5g
Red Chu
All chu are the same, smack them with the right thing, be it sword or clawshot,
and the jelly leftover is yours for the taking. Combines with others often.
2, not as common as others but all chu fight you the same way.
Notes= Red Jelly restores 8 hearts, a nice thing even at the end of the game.
5h
Blue Chu
Even less common than reds, a smack goes a long way in the death of a blue.
They do not combine willingly, so they are never the dominant color of a
fusion.
2, I bet you're sick of seeing chu, aren't you? Well don't worry only 1 more
color left.
Notes=Blue Jelly has the power to fully heal Link.
5i
Rare Gold Chu
The only guaranteed place to see this is the Cave of Ordeals, or in some
grottos around Hyrule Field
So uncommon, you do a double-take the first time you see one. The same applies
,but have a bottle ready, or it will be a waste. Never. EVER, let this
meet up with any other Chu if you can help it, or it will be gone for good.
4, just because of how careful you have to be around them.
Notes=Rare Chu Jelly has the power to full-heal and give a short Dmg Boost.
It doesn't last as long as Great Fairy's tears.
5j
Lizalfos
Castle Town Outskirts, Every Dungeon after Goron Mines (Except Palace of
Twilight), Cave of Ordeals
Your sword is your friend here, but bombs and bomb arrows are quite effective
at dispatching these guys. They have a shield, but it seemed like they forgot
it when I fought them. They have a large axe on their tails. They run right
at you, so bomblings away if it is safe.
4, not hard, but annoying enough to warrant that they be partially difficult.
Notes=They drop like flies under bombs and the mortal draw
5k
Lizalfos Shaman
Lakebed Temple, Temple of Time, City in the Sky, Hyrule Castle,
Cave of Ordeals
A partially more difficult form of Lizalfos. Skulls for masks, and bone armor
are their trademark looks. Actually knows about its shield. Same killing
methods.
5, use shield bash like you've never done it before or mortal draw. Bombs
pretty much guarantee a kill.
Notes=Stronger and faster, but essentially the same as before. Travels in
groups, so kill from a distance if you can.
5l
Armored Lizalfos
Temple of Time, City in the Sky, Hyrule Castle, Cave of Ordeals
An incredibly difficult Lizalfos, there is no easy way out. Knocking down
only angers them, unless you have excellent timing. It's bigger, faster,
and covered in thick platemail that doesn't come off when you hit them.
Your only option is to Helm Splitter them to death or wait for openings.
It can block Mortal Draw as well, so be careful around these.
7, one of the hardest fairly common enemies you will encounter.
Notes=I got lucky on the first one I met, I was able to do a Draw on it. If
you bide your time or charge at them, it doesn't matter, as long as you kill
in a reasonable amount of time. At least they are loners most of the time.
5m
Moblin Soldier
Almost everywhere after seeing them in Kakariko Village
Your Bow is the key to wiping out armies of these, as it one-hit kills...
always... period. If you are low on arrows, smack them around with the
sword. They don't carry shields, only clubs and are horribly inaccurate
alone. If they come at you in groups, stun with a boomerang blast and
jump strike. Becomes Moblin Cavalryman on Boarback.
4, I've never seen one of these alone in the literal sense.
Notes=Likes to have an Archer or a Boar nearby so that you are distracted, and
can't kill them as easily. Any arrow is fine, but the archers make it hard
to aim properly.
5n
Moblin Archer
Almost everywhere after seeing them in North Hyrule Field
Snipe these annoying punks as soon and as fast as you can. Arrows are like
the plague to these things. You can either practice with normal Bow or
use Marksman Arrows for an easier time, but it is rather important that
these are the first to die. They are highly accurate, but a little on the
dumb side, shooting at you when you are well out of range. Becomes Moblin
Cavalry Archer on Boarback. Also uses Sentry Towers to get the one-up
on you.
5, they can hit you well before you hit them if you aren't careful. They spawn
in the same places always after the first time you see them there.
Notes=This is why I gave the scope a 5, but I've also practiced with the
normal bow so I can save the 100 Rupees for better things in a second game.
These make great target practice.
5o
Moblin Cavalryman
North Hyrule Field, Gerudo Desert(not permanently)
A Moblin Soldier riding a Boar, it is susceptible to the same things, only
it is harder to catch. Best fought on horseback.
6, they are hard to kill because if you hit them with your sword they fall
off and are open to a finishing blow. Resist the urge and wait for them to
stand up, then shoot or wait for it to get on its Boar again. Another
good strategy is to get off of your horse, and target the closest one.
Since movement isn't restricted by a saddle, you can follow it with
the cursor until it is dead.
Notes=They charge at you with a giant pig and this guy trys to smack you in
the head. I would prefer it if you shot them personally, but it is your game.
Less common than Archers.
5p
Moblin Cavalry Archer
North Hyrule Field
A Moblin Archer riding a Boar, far more annoying than its counterpart. Less
accurate than a normal archer, and dependent on its Boar instead of trying
to kill you. Arrows still rip through these like tissue paper.
5, it isn't as much of a threat as its counterpart. Very common.
Notes=An arrow goes a long way, since these tend to drop packs of ten, and
it only takes 1 or 2 with careful aim.
5q
Deku Baba
Caves, Forest Temple, South Entrance of Castle Town
Slingshot is good for stunning, but sword lets you kill in 2 hits. Boomerang
seems to kill in 1 hit, but not always.
2, it can't chase you beyond the extent of its stem. Grabs you and holds
you in place.
Notes=These drop ammo for your slingshot, and are very easy to see and kill.
Sometimes they hang from the ceiling.
5r
Greater Baba
Forest Temple, South Entrance to Castle Town, Cave of Ordeals
Cutting it off the vine isn't good enough to kill these, you have to hit them
again after you knock them off. Will follow you or try to get back to its
roots. Same strategy to knock it off as before, but go for the kill shortly
afterward. If it grabs you, use a spin attack to instantly kill it.
3, it may chase you and hold you in place, but it still has relatively low
health.
Notes=A deku with an attitude. Gust is very useful against the ones on the
ceiling.
5s
Rat
Anywhere that skulls can be found, Cave of Ordeals
A land-bound keese. So weak that anything can kill it easily.
1, because I have to give my rating of 1-10
Notes=Great for hearts and money
5t
Earthbound Prisoner
Arbiter's Grounds(only 4)
Has to be fought as wolf. Use 2 jump attacks on it, then finish it.
4 against the first 3, then 5 against the last one.
Notes=4/5 required poes in the "Save Jovani" Sidequest
5u
Poe
Everywhere(Only 56)
Has to be fought as wolf. 2 jump attacks or 1 dark energy strike, then
finish them. They are the floating lanterns around Hyrule.
3, Dodge their scythe strikes, then attack in the opening that it leaves.
You will often lose the targeting cursor after you knock them down.
Notes=Only 1 of these HAS to be killed. The rest are completely optional.
20 gets you a bottle of fairy's tears, though.
5v
Leever
Gerudo Desert
Comes at you from underground, grapple and you will be set. It makes them
bounce helplessly in front of you. 1-hit kill from Master Sword.
3, just grapple and smack
Notes=It will never leave you alone. Period. Sometimes killing one spawns
a Greater Leever.
5w
Large Leever
Arbiter's Grounds
Exactly like the leevers from the desert. Grapple->Smack twice->dead
4, it has more health and has the advantage of a stone floor to prevent a
successful grapple.
Notes=Pull these as far from the quicksand as you can. Falling in costs you a
heart.
5x
Greater Leever
Gerudo Desert
This is an "every once in a while" kind of monster. If you happen to see one,
just grapple and beat it to death with your sword.
4, it takes 2 hits to kill.
Notes=I've only seen these nearby the warp point, and only after killing
a few normal leever. It can hurt you pretty badly if you let it.
5y
Bluenut
Cave of Ordeals(Floor B48)
A sword-wielding Darknut in blue armor. Back Slice this monster into oblivion.
It only fights alongside Rednut and Silvernut. Also use Helm Splitter if
you can, because that gets you behind it. Moves slow with armor, but fast
with it off. Cannot be killed with armor on. Helm Splitter only works
against "with armor", but a back slice can break guard against "without
armor".
9, this guy takes a long time to kill without using back slice. Hits hard and
guards against almost everything. Draw does not work on him.
Notes=Give yourself a pat on the back if you kill him easily. Back slice is
key, but make up your own strategy.
5z
Rednut
Cave of Ordeals(Floor B48)
A sword-wielding Darknut in red armor. Same strategy as above. Only fights
alongside Bluenut and Silvernut.
9, again he will take awhile without back slice.
Notes=Another pat, as there is only 1 more to go in this trio.
5aa
Silvernut
Cave of Ordeals(Floor B48)
A sword-wielding Darknut in shining white armor. Same strategy as Bluenut and
Rednut. Only fights alongside Bluenut and Rednut.
9, I recommend isolating each one of these 3 so it isn't as bad.
Notes=You've finished off the last of the 3.
5ab
Kingnut
Cave of Ordeals(Floor B49), Hyrule Castle(entrance to throne room)
A large, sword-wielding knight in black armor. Like all Darknut variants,
the back slice is key to winning. Also you can wait for him to attack the
ground with his sword and use the opening for a 4-hit combo. Fights with
another of himself. The strongest of the Darknuts. Openings against
unarmored Kingnut include the thrust, the kick, and the 2 to 3-hit combo
9, as long as you are careful to stay out of shield bash and kick range, you
will be fine.
Notes=This guy is the last thing standing between infinite Great Fairy's
Tears and you. There are wyvern knights in here, so see their strategy
in the miniboss section. The one at Zelda's doorstep will be alot easier.
5ac
Darknut(Hammer)
Cave of Ordeals(Floor ?B47?)
A hammer-wielding knight in black armor. All Darknut are fairly predictable,
but this one fights differently due to a different weapon. The new attack
is a swing in front of it. The rest is the same in this fight.
9, slightly harder than other Darknut but not enough to warrant another
point.
Notes=The hammer is a lot bigger than the sword, so the "Arms Toss" attack
is harder to avoid. It can be blocked, but it cause a short stun.
5ad
Darknut
Hyrule Castle
A sword-wielding knight in black armor. All Darknut fight the same except
the hammer-wielder. Back-slice or wait for openings, then swing away.
9, just because it takes awhile to kill. Capable of killing you easily, if
you aren't ready to fight one.
Notes=By now, you've killed so many of these that the strategy you invented
is burned into your brain. Keep up the good work.
5ae
Armos
Temple of Time, Cave of Ordeals
A statue brought to life by a evil crystal in its back. Attack that, with
bombs or arrows or a 3-hit combo. Groups of Armos are borderline deadly,
because Armos only have 1 weak-point. Can be stunned by ball and chain.
Bounces randomly upon death.
5, reaching the crystal is easy in a big room, but be careful in a small
one.
Notes=This can be killed with very little harm to you, if you play your cards
right. Sneak up behind it, and as soon as it wakes up, attack the crystal
3 times with your sword.
5af
Re-Dead
Arbiter's Grounds, Cave of Ordeals
This isn't the lovely Re-Dead from Ocarina of Time that were easy to kill.
Nope, these Re-Dead are capable of causing you a very big headache. They
scream to paralyze like before, but now they have armor and a sword that
Cloud Strife would envy. Not much can stop them from attacking, and big
groups guarantee some pain on your part. You can stop the paralyze by
moving around, and you can leave it with a spin attack on the GCN.
Otherwise you might consider running, because only hard hits stop them.
Alone, you can Continuous Bite one 3 full times to kill it. In a group,
Dark Energy before the stun scream and 2 hits will make it go away. The
ultimate way to kill them is with Mortal Draw. Ball and Chain can kill in
2 hits, once when you throw and again when it comes back. Bomb Arrows are
also good if you want to stay out of range, but they are expensive to use.
Jump Strike secret technique is effective from a range.
7, it may be slow but it is strong and it can stun as beforementioned.
Notes=God, I hate these. The spin attack does not work on the Wii version
of the game.
5ag
Stalfos
Arbiter's Grounds, Cave of Ordeals
A skeleton knight capable of reviving itself when it falls. This can be cured
by throwing a bombling at it, shooting it with a bomb arrow, or knocking
it down and placing a bomb nearby. It posesses a shield and a short sword.
Also can be destroyed quite easily with the ball and chain. First hit will
knock it down and the second will destroy its bones, most often on the
return trip.
5, more intimidating than difficult.
Notes=Any of the sword special moves can handle this. Pick your favorite.
5ah
Skeleton Army
Arbiter's Grounds, Hyrule Castle, Cave of Ordeals
A group of skeletons armed with spears. 2 hits to kill one, and so many at
once that you end up killing 6 or 7.
3, only a nuisance, really. Be careful though, each hit is worth 1/2 heart.
Notes=An excellent way to get money, as 5 and 10 rupees drop often.
5ai
Wolfos Skeleton
Hyrule Field(Night only), Cave of Ordeals
A wolfos that died, then was reborn as a skeleton. Very easy to kill, just hit
it once or twice with your sword and all will be well.
3, these are seen anytime after you first enter Hyrule Field
Notes=Great source of money. You have to kill a group of these, all at once,
to get a wooden statue to be used in story quest "Ilia's Memory".
5aj
White Wolfos
Snowpeak Ruins, Snowpeak Mountain Path
Arctic wolfos that patrol the blizzards of Snowpeak Mountain. Very evasive,
very hard to kill unless smacked by Ball and Chain. Takes 3 jump attacks
as wolf, stays far out of range of Dark Energy Field unless cornered. Then
it can 1-hit kill.
6, as they run and jump away. Very fast also.
Notes=The environment is your enemy here. Wolf until you get the Ball and
Chain
5ak
Freezard
Snowpeak Ruins, Cave of Ordeals
A sturdy, ice-breathing dragon made entirely of ice. The good news is that it
can't chase you. The bad news is that it has powerful lungs for a block of
ice. Ball and Chain is literally your only hope unless you are nearby a
cannon. Even death offers you no respite from it, as it becomes a random
number of Baby Freezards upon being shattered.
6, even with the B&C. 2 hits to kill with that or 1 blast from a cannon.
Frozen status is a constant 1/4 heart drain, and even touching this gives
you that. Beware the breath, and both means can be done from a safe
distance thankfully.
Notes=I'm sorry for the pun, but I shudder to think of any room with more
than 2 of these. In the Cave, there is a room with exactly 2. In said
room there are also Phantom Rats, Ice Bubble, and 5 Frozen Lancers. Good
Luck.
5al
Baby Freezard
Snowpeak Ruins, Cave of Ordeals
The remnants of a Freezard. Not always in the same room as them, though.
They slide, alot, but they have really low health for when you see them in
the game. Ball and Chain is great for this, but 2 sword hits gets the job
done. Bomb Arrows work well, but are expensive. The ones near ledges are
almost patheticly easy to kill, just knock it off. Can inflict frozen status.
4, annoying but not a threat at all.
Notes=These are pretty rare alone, but between 3 and 8 appear when a Freezard
dies. It might be a set amount, I haven't tested it yet.
5am
Frozen Lancer
Snowpeak Ruins, Cave of Ordeals
A being made of ice that can create javelins from the moisture of the air
around itself. These guys throw their weapons at you, and sometimes hit
anyway because they throw at an arc. High health but very fragile. Throws
fast, attacks fast, just plain pains in the neck. Using jump attack with
the wolf is an excellent way to avoid being hit by other lancers, as it
destroys the multiple lances being thrown at you.
6, prone to causing high damage. Even the shield isn't capable of stopping
everything it does. The good news is that 1-hit kills are certain with the
Ball and Chain. The bad news is that they fight in groups more often than
not.
Notes=Hit hard and hit fast or you might get a game over at the end of it
all.
5an
Helmasaur
Lakebed Temple, West/East(Wii) Entrance to Castle Town, City in the Sky,
Cave of Ordeals
A small dinosaur wearing an iron mask. 3 ways to kill it. First is Clawshot,
Attack. Second is Dodge its charge, jump attack. You can also use Back
slice on these to 1-hit kill. Low health.
3, an uninspired monster at best. Always knocks you down if you do not block.
Notes=Fun to kill, especially with its own mask. Throws are preset distances,
though.
5ao
Armored Helmasaur
City in the Sky
A Helmasaur whos mask has become part of its body as it grew up. You can use
either the wait and jump strategy or a Back Slice on these.
4, pathetic considering this happens in the 7th dungeon.
Notes=Big...very big. Only annoying near ledges.
5ap
Bubble
Arbiter's Grounds, Cave of Ordeals
A flying skull that poses as a normal skull. Comes in 3 flavors, burning,
freezing, and original. Must first be knocked out of air, though it can
be killed in the air. Bounces away from you when it loses its wings. It
will get its wings and status effect back after a certain time.
4, chasing one is a new experience. You can finish if you catch it before it
goes airborn.
Notes=A more dangerous form of the skull shaped pots. Icy Bubble has freeze
status, but I don't think that Fiery effects anything past Zora's Armor.
5aq
Skulltula
Forest Temple, Caves, Path to Hyrule Castle Waterway, Cave of Ordeals
A large spider with skull markings on its body. Capable of frontal blocks,
but its abdomen is always a weak point. Cannot be "finished" after learning
shield bash. You learn bash, and it learns block. Waiting for it to start
an attack leaves it open for hits, using bash has the same effect.
4, a very slow attacker. I have only been hit once or twice by one. Harder
to kill as a wolf, but only because of no shield bash.
Notes=Not many of these around, but the few that are can be frustrating
if no bash is used.
5ar
Young Gohma
Temple of Time
The just hatched egg of Armogohma. These run around the Temple like they own
the place, so show them who is boss with anything you prefer. I found that
my Ball and Chain could handle alot at once while leaving me safe. Thin legs
and a white abdomen.
2, never alone but great for hearts and, get this, arrows. So easy to kill.
So easy.
Notes=They are often the reason a door or gate cannot be passed. The abdomen
of a spider is the really big part after the legs.
5as
Mature Gohma
Temple of Time
These are more tarantula-like then their younger counterparts. Red body and
purple legs. A few sword hits and you will be fine.
2, don't expect much from these if you are good with the sword.
Notes=There aren't many of these around, so don't worry about them being a
threat.
5at
Creeper Spider
Ordon Village(not for long), Forest Temple
A vine loving spider that charges at you when you attempt to climb past it.
1 pellet or a gust from the boomerang takes these out, as well as an
attack from the Clawshot.
1, can only be knocked off by the 3 means of killing them.
Notes=They die like real spiders.
5au
Tektite
Hyrule Field, Goron Mines, Lakebed Temple
A bouncing, 4-legged, 1-eyed creature that is quite annoying. Blues have
more health than reds, and arrows are 1-hit kill to both kinds.
3, at best. Don't try this on horseback unless you have a bow. They can
stand on water.
Notes= Red tektites like the land, Blue tektites like water.
5av
Lighteater Bug
Any Twilight before Arbiter's Grounds.(only 35)
These little bugs have swallowed the light of Hyrule, and they can only be
sensed by a certain wolf. Killing them before getting a vessel of light
leaves the light in easy reach, for when you come back. They electrify
their bodies while running away or attacking, and only need one bite to
kill.
2, they are hard to find in most cases.
Notes=For every one of these that you kill, you are one step closer to
never seeing spirits again. That's supposed to be good, but I couldn't
help but feel a pang of regret.
5aw
Tile Worm
Forest Temple, City in the Sky
A worm that sends you flying if you step on its tile. The only way to
kill is to knock out of ground with Boomerang, and then hit with whatever
you prefer. The Gust-O'-Matic auto targets them, so they aren't hard to
find.
4, not so bad the first time. The second time you see them, they may make
you repeat rooms.
Notes=They peek out from under the tile to see if anything is coming, and
hide when something gets close enough to hurt them. The tiles are
different sizes in the City, so it is easy to find them.
5ax
Sphere Bug
Lakebed Temple, Cave of Ordeals
A worm-like bug that hides itself in a large bubble of water. Surface
Tension makes this almost immune to everything, but bombs or clawshot
handle the problem at hand quite easily. If you clawshot, it runs back
into the sphere.
4, not as bad as some enemies. It stalks you relentlessly if you do not
kill it.
Notes=More of a shock than a nuisance. It got its own cutscene.
5ay
Scarab Beetles
Arbiter's Grounds
A swarm of small black bugs that attach themselves to you.
Spin attack to get them off, or sword to kill them first. They cause
"weight" status.
1, rather harmless until they attach to you.
Notes=They attack when you open something or get near them. They chase
relentlessly until they are on you or dead. Wait until all of them are on
you then Spin Attack to finish with gusto.
5az
Torch Slug
Goron Mines, Some caves, Cave of Ordeals
A burning slug that loves ceilings. Has a short fire burst around itself
as a defense. Can be finished without attacking, but takes 1 hit to kill.
Slingshot is useless, but arrows can save you from falling in lava.
1, only deadly near small ledges and lava pools.
Notes=A great way to fall to your death, if you aren't careful. Otherwise,
have fun.
5ba
Bomb Bug
Forest Temple
An explosive insect, used mainly for opening walls. It tackles you, or
follows you around. It has no drops, and is for all intents and purposes,
a bomb.
2, explosions are painful.
Notes=Hitting it or blocking its attack will both make it go into bomb mode.
You have been warned.
5bb
Peahat
North Hyrule Field, Gerudo Desert(near fortress), Cave of Ordeals
A small green monster that looks strangely like a plant. It and 2+ friends
spin around you until they see an opening, within which they charge you.
Two hits from the sword or a spin handles them easily enough.
2, don't bother with anything but your sword, as they move fast.
Notes=Often they aren't with or even nearby other types of monster, so it
isn't a problem to kill them.
5bc
Flying Peahat
Gerudo Desert, City in the Sky
A completely harmless flying seedpod. Only a peahat because it looks like
the ones from previous games. Clawshot on it to go to a new place.
0, has no offensive capabilities in it's power.
Notes=It can be targeted, so clawshot away.
5bd
Mantrap
Forest Temple
There are only 3 of these that I ever saw, and they can only be killed
by feeding them a bomb bug. If you fall in, it is 1/2 heart damage.
3, as 2 of them are part of a puzzle in a room. The 3rd is just hangin'
out with some Skulltula.
5be
Deku Mantrap
Forest Temple, City in the Sky
A fusion of a deku baba and mantrap. Only 2 of these. Kill the Deku to open
up the mantrap. Hit the deku when it tries to slam down on you, then toss
a bomb into the mantrap to get whatever is within it. The deku doesn't
come back.
4, the deku is annoying, but that's it. Every slam on you knocks you down.
Notes=It has a key in the Forest Temple.
5bf
Skull Puppet
Faron Woods, Lost Woods, Sacred Grove(during Skullkid mini-boss)
A wooden puppet summoned by Skullkid to slow down progress through the
Lost Woods. Kill them fast or pay with your life. If you kill all at the
same time, there will be a delay in the next assault. Disappears when
Skullkid gets hurt.
4, they attack in waves.
Notes=A fabulous way to get full money, but you cannot leave to spend it.
Also drops arrows and hearts.
5bg
Guay
A little bit of everywhere thats outside.
Small birds that attack one or two at a time. 1-hit from sword kills.
Fun to kill with Ball and Chain. Can be stunned and brought to you
at the same time by Gust Boomerang.
1, if you have trouble with them, leave the immediate area.
Notes=The ultimate in money-making. Killing an entire group has Rupees
spawn, and leaving the area(where it loads) makes them respawn. Killing
again makes the same amount of Rupees drop, and can be done this way
for hours.
5bh
Roc
Hyrule Fields, Hyrule Castle Rooftops, City in the Sky
Large birds that attack quickly and run away. Best killed by sword, but can
be knocked off to their death. That includes canyons, by-the-way.
4, expect to waste arrows if you want them dead that way. Can be finished.
Notes=2 hits from Ordon Sword and 1 from Master. Drops 5 and 10 Rupees often.
5bi
Wyvern Knight
City in the Sky, Hyrule Castle, Cave of Ordeals
A dragon in armor with a grapple point for a shield. See Mini-boss section
for strategies. Sometimes you fight 2 at once.
6, you'll see why later.
Notes=Not very many of these around, so have fun while it lasts.
5bj
Dodongo
Goron Mines, Caves, Cave of Ordeals
A small red dragon with a thick hide that breathes fire. Its weak point is
its tail, easily reached with bow or sword. Wait for the fire-breath,
then attack. *SECRET* At the cost of drops, they can be 1-hit killed by
shooting an arrow into its mouth when it starts to or is breathing fire.
3, any well-timed jump is good for getting around it. Breath can be blocked.
Notes=More dangerous in groups, but not deadly. Can hang from ceilings,
but will not drop onto you.
5bk
Shell Blade
Lakebed Temple
A large clam that charges until blocked, when it reveals its weakness.
Attack the very muscle that is its life with your sword. You can
shield bash or clawshot to have them open up whenever you want.
3, cannot be killed while swimming.
Notes=You can avoid these entirely if you want, they stay on the bottom.
5bl
Biri
Lakebed Temple
A large electric jellyfish. Can only be killed by clawshot. Wait until
it isn't surrounding itself with electricity to shoot.
4, many tend to block the path to important places. Electric stops you from
doing anything.
Notes=Killing results in a 5 or 10 rupee and a heart...ALWAYS.
5bm
Phantom Rat
Arbiter's Grounds, Cave of Ordeals
An "invisible" rat that attaches itself to you, causing weight status. Can
only be killed by wolf-spin attack. Targeting other rats in range prevents
the spin from working, but does allow you to kill them. Can only be seen
by the "sense" ability.
4, weight status is deadly in the right places.
Notes=DESPITE WHAT YOU MAY BELIEVE OR HAVE HEARD, GETTING THE WEIGHT STATUS
IN ARBITER'S GROUNDS IS NOT A GLITCH. I heard that on the message boards
of GameFAQs.com for a week. Use your senses as a wolf, and don't run there
as the real person.
5bn
Twilit Soldier
Twilit Eldin Province, Twilit Lanayru Province, Twilight Palace
A moblin soldier enveloped by the power of twilight. Resist the urge to
jump attack as wolf, it takes 3. Use the nifty 5-hit combo, it only takes
2 of them. Or better yet, use dark energy field. Has more health because of
the transformation.
5, as slow and dumb as before, but it has lost its weakness to arrows.
Notes=You only see these once where you can kill with blade, so get good
with wolf-mode.
5bo
Twilit Archer
Twilit Lanayru Province, Twilight Palace
A moblin archer transformed by the power of twilight. Less likely to waste
arrows. Stays out of dark energy range in most cases, so beat it up.
Again, no jump attacks even though it only takes 2 to kill this.
5, be careful of the arrows, wolves don't wear armor(normally).
Notes=Only seen as hylian once, so be wary. Arrows no longer 1-hit kill.
5bp
Twilit Roc
Twilit Hyrule Castle Rooftops, Twilight Palace, Twilit Lanayru Province
A roc transformed by the power of twilight. It can balance itself in the
air, and has a better attack pattern than its light counterpart. Takes 2
jump attacks to kill. If it is low enough, 1 dark energy hit.
4, not a threat because not many exist.
Notes=Be careful of long falls, they like being near dangerous edges. By
the time they are seen, you will have Sol-powered Master Sword. 1-hit kill
on any twilight beastie in twilight realm.
5bq
Twilit Rat
Twilit Hyrule Castle Waterways, Twilight Palace
A rat transformed by the power of twilight. Is no different from a normal
rat, but seen before normal rats. Looks a lot like squid. If they mob you,
then try to kill them one at a time while dodging, as the spin with wolf
is...limited.
1, just watch for when they are in water.
Notes=Unless you hit more than one, they get crushed in-between wolf-mode's
fangs. Nice touch.
5br
Twilit Keese
Any Twilight
A keese transformed by the power of darkness. Is no different from a normal
keese. Jump attack is only method of easy death.
1, be wary of its dive, it hits then goes out of range.
Notes=More crushing by teeth, I like to see that. It does take time, though.
5bs
Twilit Baba
Twilit Faron Woods, Twilit Eldin Province, Twilight Palace
A deku baba blah blah darkness. I know you probably know that by now.
2 attacks and it is finished. The same as a normal deku, but no pellets
when it dies. Dark Energy Field insta-kills.
2, but barely.
Notes=These are just there to hinder you, kill it and move on.
5bt
Shadow Beast
Everywhere in the overworld but not for long, Twilight Palace
A twili that Zant transformed himself to serve as part of his dark army.
Capable of turning other creatures into Shadow Beasts, mainly people.
Comes in groups of 1,3,5,or 7(depending on where they are fought), most
notably 3. They must ALL be killed at the same time, or at least the last 2,
or the last one will revive the others. It is susceptible to continuous
bite. Running away is not an option, because an energy field appears
around you making an arena. Sometimes killing them is a puzzle
because of this.
7, slow they may be, but weak they are not. High health until introduced
to dark energy field.
Notes=You must fight these in order to get dark energy field, or any of the
portals that allow warping around.
5bu
Magic Mask
Twilight Palace
Zant's mask of choice, animated and capable of shooting magical fire. It must
be stunned by it's own fire for you to get close enough to hurt it, but
that is not required to kill it. It teleports around or disappears,
depending on where it is fought. Shield Bash reflects it back.
4, not a problem in any way.
Notes=These act as "keys" to some doors, by killing them you get to open
the chest with the key.
5bv
Skullfish
Lakebed Temple
A small piranha-like fish that attaches itself to you and has seemed to
have lost its skin. Acts very much like Guay, since they leave you alone
when you go to far away. For every one latched onto you, it will either
hit seperately for 1/4 heart or cumulative damage. They can only be taken
off by a spin attack. Can be grappled from out of water. They can be fished
out of the water, but only give 1 heart. They drag you to the bottom and
drown you if you do not have your Zora's Armor equipped.
2, getting hurt stops a spin during charge-up.
Notes=Like most underwater enemies, they can be avoided entirely.
5bw
Bombfish
Lakebed Temple
No doubt the inspiration for the Water Bomb, these come at you until they are
hit or they are blocked by a shield. Upon being stunned, the countdown
begins. Grab and throw or run away, because they will explode at the
same speed as a Water Bomb.
2, explosions still hurt and it seems these were added to reduce bomb
usage in Lakebed Temple.
Notes=Uhh....kaboom?
5bx
Wallmaster
Twilight Palace
A large hand whose sole purpose in existence is to take back the Sol.
Cannot be killed, but must often be stunned in order to escape with
the Sol. 2-3 Arrows or 3 clawshot hits and you can run away.
1, you have to start over if it can grab the Sol, but you can
just stun it and grab the Sol back before it returns to its chamber.
Notes=I never gave it the opportunity to get the Sol, so should you.
5by
Beamos
Goron Mines, Temple of Time, some Caves
A large statue with a single eye, it has proximity sensors that can detect
any intruder within range of its beam. After seeing you, it will fire a
laser at you and will not stop firing until you are out of range or
can no longer be seen. The only way to kill them is to disable the red
eye that fires the laser. Shoot it with an arrow, thats the only way.
2, not a big threat but can knock you down with the beam.
Notes=Some of them can/have to be moved to access new places.
5bz
Wallrider
Arbiter's Grounds, Temple of Time, Hyrule Castle
Little spiked columns that can only be seen on some spinner tracks. A key
factor of the Stallord battle. Only vulnerable after gaining control of
the hammer statue in the Temple of Time, just use your dominion rod's
"statue ability" nearby. No drops to my knowledge.
4, these....are....annoying. Since they can only be killed in one place,
and they often stand between a long walk and a door, they get a 4.

7=Boss List
Almost the same as before, but not exactly. These ARE in order.
(Search Item) 7#(#)
Name+Type= #####->##### (Boss or Mini-Boss)
Location= #####
Prize= ##### (Dungeon Item or Heart Container)
Methods= ##### (A short paragraph on a functional way to get the kill)
Difficulty= ##### (My rating of 1-10)
7a
Monkey Boss->Mini-boss
Forest Temple
Gust Boomerang
When you first enter his room, he laughs at you and cuts 2 Greater Baba off
of the ceiling. From now on, if you do not stop him, he will cut them off
of the ceiling. It just so happens that stopping him is how he gets hurt.
Wait for him to either throw it at you or throw it at the ceiling, then
roll into the pillar he is standing on. It cannot be done during a lock-on.
Smack him until he stands up and repeat 2-3 times(depending on attacks).
Rating of 3.
7b
Twilit Parasite Diababa->Boss
Forest Temple
Heart Container+Fused Shadow
Entering the big key door, it will show 3 bomb bugs and 2 large tentacles.
Knock out both tentacles by targeting the bomb bug, then targeting it.
Now Diababa will surface. Evade its attacks until Monkey Boss comes to
the rescue with bomb bugs. Target him, then target Diababa's head and
wait until he turns around at a wall to throw your boomerang. If it
hits correctly, Diababa will fall, leaving its eye open for attack. Hit
it however you want, but if you want to see a finishing blow on a boss,
use jump attacks. In between your beatings, the 2 tentacles from the
beginning will try to bite you or Diababa will shoot the poison water
it lives in at you.
Rating of 4, can be annoying if you do not time the boomerang right.
7c
Moblin General 1->Mini-boss
North Hyrule Fields and Eldin Bridge
Access to Lanayru Province, Goron Mines, and Malo Mart-Kakariko
Returning from the "See Bo" story quest will trigger a cutscene in Kakariko
Village where the moblin general does...something. This makes Link
mad, so he chases moblin general to Hyrule Fields. Now your goal is to
chase him on horseback and kill him. Everytime you hit him he loses an
armor piece, until he has none. If the goons give you trouble, stop and kill
them. He will wait and mock you until he sees that his life is in danger
again. Successfully stripping him of armor leads to a brief cutscene
where both of you jump onto Eldin Bridge, then an archer lights up the
barrier between you and escape. Now you must joust him. Lead him one
direction until just before he can hit you, then go toward the other side
while hitting him with your sword. 3 times of that and he falls into
the ravine under the bridge.
Rating of 6, the joust is annoying for inexperienced horseback fighters
(like me).
7d
Armored Goron Sentry->Mini-boss
Goron Mines
Hero's Bow
This boss is said to be the hardest one in the game. It is beyond me
why anyone says that. First he will break the large platform you
are on, making it easy to slide around. Equip the boots to avoid this
issue, as it is magnetic. Get him close to an edge, with your back to it,
and wait until he tries to punch you. It leaves him wide open for a stunning
hit, like the end of a 4-hit combo. He will ball himself up and start
rolling at you. Remember this? Use the action "Grab" to stop his roll
and throw him into the lava. Do it again, but the third time he is quite
angry with you. The new opening is both fists over his head. You have less
time to hit him with this new attack, but the rules haven't changed. Hit
him, grab him, throw him overboard. After that he will complain about
being hurt and THEN you tell him the elder gave you the ok. Musta missed
the memo.
Rating of 5, it isn't that hard, but it is difficult to lure a Goron twice
your size to an edge of a platform.
7e
Twilit Igniter Fyrus->Boss
Goron Mines
Heart Container+Fused Shadow
Upon entering the big key room, you will see a large figure in shackles.
You get closer only to see it burst into flames. The chains get hot, and
then it breaks them. The crystal in his forehead begins to glow, and that is
where the fight begins. Get to safety, and aim for the crystal. He will
go on a rampage around the room, and now is the time that you grab the
chain on his leg(at the end) and equip your Iron Boots. He topples, leaving
an opening at the very crystal you shot him in. Sword away and he will stand
up. Rinse and repeat, but he does get faster and you can Finishing Blow him.
Be careful of his chains, he is very accurate with them and they can
break pillars around the room.
Rating of 5, sometimes the crystal is hard to see, so be careful.
7f
Twilit Rider->Mini-boss
Twilit Dried-up Lake Hylia
Access to Upper Zora's Domain
Listen to Fyer talk about lack of customers and the shrine, and he
will casually point out a Twilit Archer in his hopes for business. Then
he will freak out, and that's your cue to be a hero and kill it.
Walk over to it, and it will use Hawk Grass to summon a Twilit Roc. It
will then start riding it. Wait until it swoops down to attack, then
jump attack it. It swoops after trying to grab you twice in its claws.
Do this 3 times and the archer will fall off. He will make a beeline
for the grass, so kill it before it can board its mount again. After that,
Midna will ride it and control it so you can investigate why the
Lakebed is dry.
Rating of 4, it attacks fast so be on your toes. Once it is off, there
is no difference between this guy and normal archers.
7g
Lighteater Queen->Mini-boss
Twilit Lake Hylia
Eliminating the last of the twilight in Hyrule
Catch the last tear(wherever you found it) and Midna will complain about
there only being 11 tears on the map. She will ask to see it and says
that it is odd that the last one just appeared. Go to the marked place
and climb on a raft. She will appear in a short cutscene, and swim around
the raft, then jump out of the water. Wait until it attacks, but do not
get hit as that knocks you down, and jump attack into a continuous bite.
She will then go around your raft and all the other rafts in the electric
charge that all the other lighteaters have. Resurface and then repeat at
least 2 more times. After that, you will have to hit all 6 "tentacles"
on its abdomen at once. Can obviously only be seen in sense mode.
Get the last tear, and go where you are bidden by Lanayru.
Rating of 5, a fight near water is a dangerous one as a wolf.
7h
Moblin General 2->Mini-boss
Great Bridge of Hylia
Safe access between Castle Town and Kakariko Village
This time he thinks he has figured out the game, because he is wearing
2 gigantic shields on each arm. 2 arrows in a row or Bomb Arrow him
and he falls out of the way.
1, might have been hard if you didn't have a bow.
7i
Giant Toad->Mini-boss
Lakebed Temple
Clawshot
You come up through the hole in the floor, only to have it lock behind you.
Thats when the Tadpoles fall from the ceiling. They are 1-hit kill, don't
see them as a threat yet. Look at the ceiling and you will a large blue
mass, that is when she falls down. The game here is kill the tadpoles.
There is alot, but they drop hearts if you take a bad beating. When they
are dead, she will try to jump onto you. Avoid it and she will be stunned,
with her tongue lolling out. Attack at will, then she will wake up. Now
we have a crossroads. You can repeat this, or you can stun her again.
Wait until you can target her tongue(she will be standing) then shoot
a bomb arrow at it. It will have the explosion animation, but she will
also swallow the bomb, thus stunning her again. 3 liberal beatings on
her tongue, and she will vomit(yes, throw-up) the chest and die. Go
to the big grate and target the yellow octagon with a red center, then
go from there.
Rating of 3, I expected more from a big amphibian. She CAN be finished.
7j
Twilit Aquatic Morpheel->Boss
Lakebed Temple
Heart Container+Fused Shadow
Fall to the bottom of the water in the hole, and you will see a single
tentacle in the sand. A cutscene will start the second you touch the bottom
showing an eye in the tentacle. Several more tentacles appear, as well as
a large mouth. Now the fight begins. Grapple the eye and hit it, you only
get 1 chance each time. Be careful of the tentacles, they grab you and put
you into Morpheel's mouth, a time and heart expensive action. It is
possible for you to stay out of tentacle range at the cost of poor
clawshot accuracy. After the first hit, bombfish appear out of Morpheel
to aid in its defense. They do that by posing as alternate grapple points,
but it isn't as bad as it sounds, the eye moves faster then them. 2 more
hits and then the tentacles will retract and Morpheel will come out of the
sand. Morpheel is big, big enough to have someone say it was a ripoff of
"Shadow of the Colossus", and only has one weakpoint, its eye. You can reach
that by swimming slightly above its path around the room, then targeting
the eye and swimming close enough to grapple. Avoid the face because it
can suck you in, and after grappling do the special 4-hit combo on its eye.
Do that 2 more times, and Morpheel will slam into a wall and dry out
the room. Its eye will turn into the HC and its body will become the FS.
Rating of 5, be careful of bombfish on the first form.
7k
Skullkid->Mini-boss
Sacred Grove Entrance
Access to Sacred Grove
Note:This strategy will not include the chase through the Lost Woods.
Go through the last door Skullkid opens for you, and you will see a
clearing. Jump down into it and he will appear with his horn. He blows
into it and 4 puppets appear. Kill at least one of them to force
Skullkid to summon more, and use that time to hit him. He will jump
away any time he can see you coming, or after he is hit. After the
first hit he will summon 5, distract him as before. Hit him again, he
will jump away and summon 7 puppets. Hit him one last time and he leaves
but not without opening the way to the Sacred Grove. Yes, the puppets
do drop items when they are destroyed by you hurting Skullkid. And
this fight is done as a wolf because of a story point.
Rating of 3, keep it occupied and go for the "kill"
7l
Moblin General 3->Mini-boss
Gerudo Fortress
Access to Arbiter's Grounds
He has abandoned his mount in favor of a one-on-one encounter. His
attacks are 2 swings in front of him and a slam on the ground with his
hammer. Both leave him wide-open for a beating. But there are easier ways.
Helm Splitter your way behind him and smack him, or use Back Slice to
hit him twice then combo. 3-4 times of that and he will go down. Get on the
boar and ride toward the gate you went through to start the fight.
This guy has no form of armor at all, so openings are no longer
necessary.
Rating of 4, take the road easiest traveled and use sword skills on him.
7m
Cursed Sword->Mini-boss
Arbiter's Grounds
Spinner
Upon entering this room, you will see a large sword rooted in the ground
and tied down with rope. The rope is covered in demonic seals. That is
where this boss gets its name from. By cutting the rope, you unleash
the curse placed in it. This embodies itself as a large robe with a bull
skull for a head. After you have cut the rope, the fight begins. It
starts with just the sword floating around and attacking you. This means
you will have to use sense as a wolf, but that isn't the focus of this
fight, it is just the way it starts. If it takes no damage it will
revert back to this state. Jump attack and use continuous bite to knock
it into the normal sight range when it swings at you, then go hylian
and shoot it in the face. It will fly around the room and then attack
the ground, giving you an opening. This is different than its attack
action, where it slowly circles you, then swoops in with its sword.
Use this time to either Mortal Draw or go crazy on it. This can be
done without getting hurt once, if you have good aim. You can also
hit it just before it can attack the ground. Repeat 2 more
times, and a short cutscene will show this guy evaporating into a
swarm of flies.
Rating of 3, this is one of the reasons I said to practice archery.
7n
Twilit Fossil Stallord->Boss
Heart Container+Access to Mirror Chamber
This is a dark room with a large skeleton in the middle. Link will step
forward into the darkness, and then Zant will appear. He will threaten
your life, then stab the skull in the very center of it with a sword
he summoned before your eyes. Zant leaves, and the eyes begin to glow.
It is now that the fight begins. You will see some zombies staggering
around the arena, and more appear everytime you "hurt" Stallord. This
is done by riding the spinner on the outside rim of the sand, then
catapulting yourself into its spine with the jump attack of the spinner.
It doesn't matter how fast you go as long as you hit it. Stallord can
breathe fire and smack you with its claws when you are in range, which
will be hardly ever. In the beginning there will be wallriders, but
more aren't added, thankfully. They only appear on spinner tracks and are
immune to all means of damage. Also many more zombies appear. Hitting
the second time spawns a great deal more zombies. The 3rd hit is the
last. Now the sand will drain away and you have to activate the tower.
The second form will begin with you being knocked into the large ditch
around the raised central platform. Spinner tracks are the only way up,
but they are also the only way to stun Stallord. Ride until you can see
it, and it will shoot fireballs at you. Dodge by going to the opposite
side, and do so until you are beside or almost beside it. Jump into
it to knock it and yourself down to the bottom again. Attack the sword,
then it will get back up and fly away. Staying on the bottom makes
Stallord shoot the same fireballs at you, but as soon as you are on
the spinner tracks, it will run away as fast as it can. Now there
are wallriders on the main track, but do not stay on the secondary
track for long or you will not get high enough up to dodge Stallord's
fireballs AND stun it. Getting close to Stallord makes all the
wallriders disappear, thankfully. Repeat the beating and head back
to the tracks. Now the wallriders are on both sides. Avoid them until
you see Stallord, then do as before. When the last hit is thrown, the
skull will rampage around the room until it lands in the middle of the
platform, where you have suddenly been transported. The sword will become
an HC, and the body will simply disappear.
Rating of 5, both of the non-boss enemies listed here are not in the main
Bestiary because one is immortal right now and the other is only seen
here. There are no strategies to killing one and therefore no need
to mention it outside of this strategy.
7o
Ball and Chain Knight->Mini-boss
Snowpeak Ruins
Ball and Chain
Walk toward the door on the other side. A cutscene will happen showing that
one statue was living and the other was just there for show. Being one of
the most painful mini-bosses, it would be in your best interest to avoid
being close to him. Now for the strategy. You must grapple past him, but
still be close enough to attack when he throws the B&C at you. Dodge
roll, then hurry to his buttock area and unleash the hylian wrath upon
his backside. 2 jump attacks or 1 4-hit combo per dodge. You MUST clawshot
past him or he will simply follow you around with the chain swinging
over his head. You only have a short time to hurt him.
Rating of 5, you can be hit by the chain in mid-grapple or on the return
trip.
7p
Twilit Ice Mass Blizzeta->Boss
Snowpeak Ruins
Heart Container+Mirror Shard
Yeta looks into the mirror...and then suddenly a great evil possesses her.
It is now that you must fight Blizzeta, who wields the most harmful
LoZ status effect, frozen. It starts quite simple, Blizzeta incases herself
in a large block of ice. Hit that 4 times with the Ball and Chain and
she will spawn multiple Glacierlings that can hit you and cause frozen.
The thing is, they die when they hit the wall, so they aren't much help.
Hit her 4 more times, but it isn't as easy as the first 4. Now Blizzeta
makes a concious attempt to dodge the Ball and Chain while still
keeping up her attack. She slides around while you attack, but still
aims for you in the end. After you have dealt the last blow to the large
ice block, a cutscene will show Blizzeta form an ice cage around
herself. She will summon 6 large ice blocks and the camera will go over
head. Use the reflection to dodge the blocks and try to destroy 1 or 2.
They will go back into the air, then land in a circle around you. If
you cannot get out, then the cage will hit you. Run to safety, anywhere
out of the circle, then target Blizzeta and use the B&C on her. Repeat
2 more times, and the cage will fall apart. Yeto will run in, and start
trying to wake up his wife. An very large number of hearts appear, then
you can claim your container.
Rating of 4, The glacierlings are 1-time only, but frozen drains hearts at
a high rate.
7q
Skullkid Round 2->Mini-boss
Sacred Grove Second Entrance
Access to Temple of Time
Note:Strategy does not include chase through Lost Woods
Now that you can fight with sword and other such tools, Skullkid will
seem like a minor annoyance. Aim and shoot. He can't dodge arrows, or
just doesn't, but that doesn't matter. He still summons 4,5, and 7
puppets. Hurting him still kills all puppets, who drop arrows now that
you are human. You don't even have to wait for it to summon more puppets.
Rating of 1, another good reason to practice archery.
7r
Ancient Darknut->Mini-boss
Temple of Time
Dominion Rod+Super cool statue(in dungeon only)
This is your standard Darknut, but it doesn't have as many tricks. It
is also the very first Darknut. There are 2 ways to go about stripping
a Darknut of its armor. The first is to wait for openings in its
defense(namely attacking you). The second is to get behind it and
swing away, though it can turn around much faster than it can walk. Getting
behind it can be done by the always effective Back Slice, or slightly
harder Helm Splitter. I recommend the back slice because it can
block shield bash. After you have taken off its armor, it will throw
its sword at you, then draw a rapier. Now this is where it loses the
tricks up its sleeves. The first is that it doesn't 2 hit then thrust, ever.
It does one or the other. It can still kick you out of a block, but it
will not do kick->2-hit or kick->full combo or even kick->thrust, it
will only kick. It will still use a long-range jump attack if you get far
enough away. The idea is to avoid damage when it makes an opening by
attacking you, then attack it. That is why it has such gimped attacks
compared to other Darknut variants, and why it is different in the case
of the Bestiary. But it has the same weaknesses as other Darknut.
You can effectively back slice your way through its defense, and then
land multiple hits on it. Do that about 3 times, and you will have killed
your first Darknut ever with minimal damage.
Rating of 4, the "wait for an opening" method can take up to 30 minutes.
7s
Twilit Arachnid Armogohma->Boss
Temple of Time
Heart Container+Mirror Shard
Nothing happens when you enter this room...at first. Step into the
light to see Hyrule's biggest spider cover up the light. See that eye?
Wait for Armogohma to stop over one of the large lights in front of
the ominously familiar statues, then shoot it in the eye right
before it can unleash a stream of fire toward you. Run to the statue
that it is immediately in front of, then possess the statue and use
your "Possess attack" only available with Dominion Rod. It can hurt
you if you aren't careful, though. Now it will get up, run to the
ceiling and lay multiple eggs. They all hatch, and serve as a distraction
to keep you from nailing mommy in the eye. Repeat 2 more times, and keep
in mind that Armogohma does get faster with its fire-beam, and lays eggs
each time. Now the game's equivalent of the "Congratulations" music
plays...but it isn't quite over yet. Turns out Armogohma's eye was
just the spider controlling the armor. Follow it around and attack
it, then it will die. Be careful of all the young gohma in its "posse".
Rating of 3, its a gohma....need I say more?
7t
Wyvern Knight->Mini-boss now, common enemy later
City in the Sky
Double Clawshot
Fall to the bottom of this room, and this guy will fly in through a window.
He has a shield made of a grapple point, so wait for him to charge up
for a dash and then grapple so he cannot dodge it. He will come right
at you and be stunned, now is your chance to smack him around. What's
more, it will stay on the ground for a short time, so you have the
chance to shield bash. After 2 rounds of damage, it will fly through 1 of
the windows, then start going really fast through them all. Suddenly,
it will stop and charge up again. Grapple->Unholy Beating->Clawshot x2
Rating of 3, later on you will fight 2 of these at once.
7u
Twilit Dragon Argorok->Boss
City in the Sky
Heart Container+Mirror Shard
Use the double clawshots near the door on a grate, then grapple onto a
vine and climb up. Argorok is armored, and we need to deal with that ASAP,
so get your Iron Boots and grapple up one of the 2 sides, going from pillar
to pillar until you can target it or you are at the top. Grapple onto
it, then Iron Boots until you touch the ground again. The impact makes
some of Argorok's armor fall off. Leave the boots on, because its wings
create gale-force winds near the ground. Repeat this 2 more times, and
then this dragon will be angry. Angry enough for the situation to require
a thunderstorm, according to the designers. Now some flying peahat appear,
climb up the pillars and grapple them. Be quick, this dragon breathes fire.
Which, in turn, is its biggest weakness. Go around on the peahat until
Argorok tires itself out by breathing fire, then latch onto its back.
Now do the exact same thing you did to Morpheel. Do it again, but he
follows you with fire this time. 3rd time, he will almost always put
fire between the 2 pillars you are using, unless you are fast. Go around
the peahat until it finishes its first breath, then double-back for
the second breath. It turns toward you to insure a hit if you cannot go
the other direction fast enough. Go for its back once it is tired, and
you should be done. It will fall out of the sky slowly, then gain one last
burst of energy and go high into the air, where it will truely die.
Rating of 6, grappling to the next level.
7v

has 2 for each place.
7w
Usurper King Zant->Boss
Varies, first seen at Twilight Palace.
Heart Container+Complete Fused Shadow Armor(Midna only, equipped in CS's)
Note=This strategy will be a little different, as Zant warps you around.
It will have strategies listed for each place visited..
Diababa's Room=Zant will warp around, cackling at you and hitting you
with machine-gun bursts of magic. It can be blocked until almost the end.
Hit him with Gust Boomerang to knock him into the poison water and stun him.
Takes 3 times.
Goron Sentry's Room=Zant will try to knock you off balance, Iron Boots
on the magnetized floor, then run over to him without boots before he
can warp again. Takes 3 times.
Morpheel's Room=1 giant mask in the middle, grapple onto Zant and hit him.
Now 3 giant masks appear, pick the right one or you will get hit before
you can reach him.
Blizzeta's Room=Giant Zant tries to fall on you, avoid him like you
avoided Blizzeta's ice blocks. Hit his foot with ball and chain, then
chase the steadily shrinking Zant. Takes 3 times.
Monkey's Room=Find the pillar he is on, then roll into it twice. Hit his
butt until he stands up again. Takes 3 times.
South Entrance to Castle Town=The real fight begins here. Zant draws 2
swords....and begins flailing about wildly. You can hit him during this
or you can wait until he spins himself dizzy and smack him around then.
At the end of each damage phase where you get a full combo, he will
start warping. Not much at first, but after the second time it will be
something along the lines of Flail->Warp->Spin->Warp->Spin->Warp->Flail...
you get the idea. Wait for the dizzy, then finish him off.
Twilight Throne Room=A cutscene happens here, and after all the work you
just did....the end of that sentence is a spoiler I'd rather not reveal.
Rating of 5, By far the longest and most memorable, maybe even funniest,
boss fight in any Legend of Zelda.
7x
Moblin General 4->Optional
Hyrule Castle
Small Key
He has become wise to your fighting style, and frontal blows are earned now.
Use Back Slice liberally, and smack him around. That or wait for openings.
Beating him allows unlocking the secret supply room if you have already
gotten the graveyard key.
Rating of 4, Helm Splitter is also very useful here.
7y
Ganon's Puppet Zelda->Boss
Hyrule Castle Throne Room
No Reward
The cutscene will explain the name. This is classic Zelda final boss, reflect
its own attacks back at it. Only one of the two orb attacks can be sent
back, the larger one. If I remember correctly, it was LargeOrb->SmallOrb
->SwoopingAttack. The large orb is sent straight at you, but the small orb
can go around you and has high homing ability. The swooping attack is
1 dive toward and/or past you, then a second dive toward and/or past you.
It should take about 3 hits. YOU MUST REFLECT IT BACK WITH YOUR SWORD! If
you want to take advantage of either an easter egg or a glitch, you can
also use a bottle, but shield bash is not an option.
Rating of 5, watch out for the small ones.
7z
Dark Beast Ganon->Boss
Hyrule Castle Throne Room
No Reward
Zelda will run to safety, and Ganon will emerge from the shadows as the
mirror of his soul. A giant boar of all things...anyway, aim for the big
crystal in his forehead and he will collapse nearby. Notice the gaping
hole in his piggy chest? Aim for that, and he will wake up from his stun
after a number of hits. Do that 2 more times, and then Ganon will
figure out that the bow is the reason for his pain. He will start
teleporting right when you shoot at him. If you keep this up, Midna
will tell you to go wolf, but if you do that beforehand you won't have
to hear from her. Let him charge at you from one of the gates that are
appearing randomly around you. Face toward him, and when you see the
action command "Grab", use it to throw him to the ground. Attack the
gaping hole again, but dark energy field is not recommended for this
as it has a charge time. Repeat 2 more times and it will be over. His
warp cycle gets a little crazy after the first wolf hit, look for the
purple warp point each and every time he disappears. If you miss the
chance to hit him as either form, he will run around the room twice, then
go toward you again. I'd say that I expect more from a giant boar, but
Ganon cannot stand up to the might of the Hero. But, wait...
Rating of 4, I love that Nintendo loves bows.
7aa
Dark Lord Ganondorf->Boss
Flaming Hyrule Fields
The End
Note:Since the actual boss fight is after the horseback scene with Zelda,
it will not be included with the strategy.
Fazed by the light arrows and knocked off of his mount, Ganondorf draws the
very sword that allowed you to kill his beast form. A ring of fire appears
around you and him, then the dual begins. Ganondorf is a exaggerated
Darknut, I'm sorry to say. Fight him as such, unless you killed them
without your sword. The rules of the game are fight to the death. As
always with such things, I value the Back Slice for its quick approach
and excellent execution. Another good move is the helm splitter, but
Ganondorf is a master of the frontal guard. No matter how you hurt him,
his health level is critically high, making it necessary to use the
once in the entire game "Chance" action command. Follow the on-screen
instructions to knock him off of his feet...but you have to hurt him
quite a bit before it can be used. In the end, if you come out on top,
you will have the chance to use the first sword skill, the Finishing
Blow. While he can be killed through a non-stop attack, I have heard that
it takes awhile and you have a better chance of winning with "Chance".
Congratulations, you have just finished The Legend Of Zelda:Twilight
Princess.
*SECRET*If you want to use this easter egg, here is how you do it. Take out
your bobber fishing rod and hit Ganondorf with the hook. His attention
will go away from the fighting and toward the rod. Use this time to beat
the fear of the goddesses into him, and repeat when necessary.
Rating of 3, I was disappointed by this fight, as were many others.
