The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess boss guide by Daveizcool First off, I want 2 say that this game is one of the greatest adventures for the Wii. I also want 2 say that it's not ok to copy this FAQ. Please dont copy it! It is property of me, Daveizcool. In this FAQ, I will describe all of the bosses in TP and how to defeat them, as well as their difficulty (IMO). One star is easy, 2 is Ok, 3 is kinda hard, 4 is hard, and 5 is pretty darn hard. ok, here is the order of my FAQ: 1. Forest Temple bosses 2. Goron Mines bosses 3. Lakebed Temple bosses 4. Arbiters Grounds bosses 5. Snowpeak Ruins bosses 6. Temple of Time bosses 7. City in the Sky bosses 8. Twilight Palace bosses 9. Hyrule castle bosses -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =================================== Temple 1: Forest temple bosses***** Location: Faron Woods =================================== ========= =========== Mid-boss: Ook the baboon Difficulty: * ------------------------ ----------- This baboon's name is Ook, and he has an item you need. It's called the gale boomerang, and u need it to defeat the boss of this temple. When you come into this room, Ook will launch the gale boomerang at the ceiling and a few baba serphants will fall. go kill them, then turn to face Ook, who is patting his butt on top of the pillar. he begins to hop around on the tikis, which are very unstable. when he stops to throw the boomerang at you, knock into the pillar. he'll fall of and thats your chanse 2 smack that bootey of his! he gives a cry, then hops back on the tiki. repeat this 1 or 2 more times, the he will slam into the tiki. a bug will fly off his head and explode, returning Ook back to normal. he's embarrassed, and hops away. but he 4got the gale boomerang! go grab it and use it to get out of Ook's room. do this by hitting the fan above the door 3 times. Big boss: Twilit parasite Diababa Difficulty: ** --------------------------------- ----------- You walk into a huge room with gross purple water in the center. Bubbles start to form in this water, and out pops 2 giant deku baba heads! After some experience with using the gale boomerand through the whole dungeon, u should know that you can lock onto 2 targets at once (you can lock onto up to 4 at a time!). do this with first a bombling (those bug-things that blow up) and then one of the heads (if u lock onto the head first nothing will happen) if u do it right, the head will explode and go back in the water. do the same with the other head. Good job, u beat the temple!...is what i would love to say. after waiting a second, the water will bubble again and a bigger head will come out. it roars at you, and u see a tongue with an eyeball on it! this is the weak spot. however, all of the bomblings left... for now, just run away from diababa's few attacks. then, you hear a familiar monkey calling. its Ook, the monkey you defeated (yet helped at the same time...weird) a while ago! he's holding a bombling, so you should know what to do! lock onto Ook, then one of diababa's heads, but i reccomend the main, middle head. if timed right, the monster will swallow the bomb and fall to the ground. now is time to give that eye a few slashes! after some hurting, diababa will raise its head and start spraying some weird kind of slime at you. run away from it, or use the gale boomerang to stop him. then lock onto Ook again and use the same tecnique. eventually, diababa will give up and then die. his eye falls off of his tongue, revealing a heart container! dont forget to take this (if you do forget, just go back- it will still be there). diababa will explode, and u will get a piece of a fused shadow. good job! now you really beat the temple! ================================ Temple 2: Goron Mines bosses**** Location: Death Mountain ================================ ========= ============== Mid-boss: Dangoro the goron guard Difficulty: ** --------------------------------- ----------- when you walk into this guys room, he will imediately challenge you. if you beat him, he will give you the hero's bow (if your an actuall zelda fan, you would know that this is a bow and arrow set)there is only 1 way to beat this fat goron, and its easy. when he's about to attack he will raise his arms exposing his big belly. This is his weak spot! hit it repeatedly, then he will begin to roll. get ready to catch him (oh, and u should really have your iron boots on for this part) after you grab him, pull a Super Mario 64 and throw him and if your close enough, he will land in the lava. repeat this 2 more times and he will let you pass to a door. this leads you to... the hero's bow! try it out by shooting the rope that holds the door behind the treasure chest. another path is open. Big boss: Twilit Igniter Fyrus Difficulty: *** ------------------------------ ----------- when you step in this room, you see a giant black...thing in chains. it is sleeping and if u go close (link is soooo smart, dont u think?) he will wake up, then he will pull on the chains until they finally break, then go on fire! hes got rage issues. Fyrus begins to chase you, but if your far enough u should launch an arrow at the crystal on his head. he will give a yell, then start running around aimlessly. put on your iron boots (the floor is magnetic) and pull on the chains. then fyrus will fall and now its time to slash his head. he stands up and goes on fire again. repeat this 2 or 3 more times, then he will give up. the crystal on his head will explode, revealing a heart container! the Twilight around this guy will also explode, and it will turn into another fused shadow piece. the mass you just fought will turn into a goron (with hair!!) so go and talk to him if you want. he cant remember a thing, not even the fight you just had with him 2 seconds ago! good job, u beat another temple!! ================================== Temple 3: Lakebed Temple bosses*** Location: Bottom of Lake Hylia ================================== ========= ==================== Mid-boss: Deku Toad Difficulty: ** ------------------- ----------- welcome to yet another huge, circular room, where a few things fall from the sky. they are called "Toados eggs", which will hatch into Toados in a second. fight the toados that fell and then talk to midna when her icon flashes. she has a bad felling and she thinks you should take a look around. look up to see where those Toados came from, and u see a huge toad-like thing. some eggs fall off of her back, then she notices you. she burps then falls to the floor. she shakes off a bunch of baby toados, so spin attack to kill them. she jumps up really high, then tries to fall on top of you. RUN!!! if she misses you, she will get exhausted and stick her tongue out. go slash it. she will then lift her head, then croak. if u have bomb arrows set, then fire a bomb in her mouth. she will fall, then stick out her tongue again! slash it. repeat this 1 more time, the she will croak (literally!) and burp up sludge. when it clears away, it will reveal a chest, containing the clawshot! i think this is one of the best weapons in the game. Big boss: Twilit Aquatic Morpheel Difficulty: *** --------------------------------- ----------- This boss is some-what related to Morpha, who u fight in Ocarina of Time in the dreaded water temple. You appear in a room full of water and Midna explains that there's only 1 way to go: Down. put on your iron boots and drop to the bottom of the room. as u fall, notice a tentacle lazily waving back and forth on the floor. what is that?? wait until you hit the floor. when you do, an eyeball will appear in the tentacle, then it will notice you. it goes back underground and lots of other tentacles will rise from the ground, along with a mouth with a mouth inside that!...gross. the battle begins and the eye comes out of the ground again and appears randomly inside one of the tentacles. when it does, lock onto it and clawshot it. then give it a good wack from your sword. it will hop inside the mouth and millions of bomb fish will come out of the mouth. try to avoid them while trying to clawshot the eye. if you clawshot a bombfish, quickly get rid of it! after hitting the eye 2 more times, the head will sink back into the ground. it looks like you won, but you didn't. sorry if i got your hopes up. Morpheel will come out of the ground again-this time with its whole body! take off the iron boots and try to keep up with morpheel's eye again, which is on his back near his head this time (you can lock onto it from pretty far away). if you succesfully clawshot it, you will pull yourself to him. start stabbing that eye! after 4 slashes morpheel will throw you off of his back. do the same thing but try to avoid the front of his mouth or else you will get eaten! after clawshotting onto his back with a total of 3 times, morpheel will go wild and smash into the wall--ow! this causes a crack to form in the wall, and all the water gets sucked out.as you can guess, the eyeexplodes revealing a heart container and morpheel's body explodes revealing the last fused shadow piece! Great job, you beat another temple! ======================================= Temple 4: Arbiter's Grounds bosses***** Location: Gerudo Desert ======================================= ========= ============= Mid-boss: Death Sword Difficulty: *** --------------------- ----------- by now, you obviously know that you can change from wolf to human whenever you want. this mid-boss tests if you've mastered that! You step into a very dark, very quiet, very circular room, with only a sword held down by several ropes. go over and swipe at one of the ropes. seemingly, the "sword will get mad" and burn all the other ropes holding it down. when the battle starts, it looks like theres no way to beat this foe...but there is! transform into a wolf and turn your sences on. u see some kind of skeleton/ghost thing holding the sword. the only way to hurt him is wait for him to strike at you. if you dodge it he will turn solid and now hold (Z) and press (A) to leap onto him. keep on pressing (A) until he throws you off of him. quickly transform into human and take out either your bow or clawshot. he will fly around and then you hit him with either weapon. Death Sword will begin to spin around the room, then appear next to you and swing the sword at you. now's your chance to swing your own sword at him! slash his head and he will fall, allowing you to hit him some more. he will begin to fly around again. use the same tecnique and then Death sword will scream and turn into bats or bugs or whatever those things are. they fly away, and a passage opens. step inside and open the chest, which has the Spinner in it! the Spinner is an item that lets u ride on grooved walls. it also lets u ride on sand without sinking! pretty impressive. Use it to leave this room. Big boss: Twilit Fossil Stallord Difficulty: **** -------------------------------- ----------- this guy is like a giant dead dragon stuck in the ground. like always, you walk into a huge, circular room. It has a skeleton lying in the middle. King Zant appears, and he tells you that he's supprised that your still alive...for now. he stabs a twilit sword into the beasts head and the skeleton comes back to life!!! bring out the Spinner (the sand surrounding him slows you down and ride over to Stallord's spine and press (B) when you get over there. his spine breaks (literally) and he gets mad, like they all do. this time hitting his spine wont be so easy! he's called a bunch of staltroops to protect him, who dont hurt you but are very annoying. after smacking a few away with your spinner you are able to hit his spine again. repeat this 1 more time and Stallord will crumble to bits. all of the sand sinks and you step into the pit where it all was. go to the center and notice a circular groove here. put in your spinner and keep on spinning untill you see a cut scene. but stallord is back to life and now hes just a giant floating head! he knocks you off of the pillar and now you have to climb all the way back up on your spinner. during the middle of your climb up the wall, you will see stallord again, checking up on you. when he sees that your almost 2 the top, hes not happy! he begins to launch fireballs at you. timely, press (B) to jump off to the other wall. repeat this 3 more times and u will be right next to the skull! quickly press (B) and smack into him. DO NOT PRESS (A) DURING THE JUMPING MARATHON OR YOU WILL JUST FALL!!!!! as i was saying, the head falls and now its time to hit the sword. after Stallord's head rises again, go back on the wall and attempt to climb up again. this time won't be so easy- you have 2 avoid some spiked spinners while climbing this time! If one comes near you, press (B) to avoid it and then press it again to get back to the circular wall. repeat the steps 2-3 more times to defeating Stallord (for real!) and triumph. the sword explodes, revealing a heart container and a door opens. this leads to the mirror chamber! *SPOILER!* This guy may be the defeated Volvagia, boss of the fire temple in Ocarina of Time! does anyone see a similarity? such as the song, horns, and hair-do? =D =================================== Temple 5: Snowpeak Ruins bosses**** Location: Snowpeak =================================== ========= ======== Mid-boss: Darkhammer Difficulty: *** -------------------- ----------- He dosnt have a hammer, yet he's still called this... i dont know why. anyway, hes weilding a weapon you will need (and love :P) which is the ball-and-chain. He will swing it at you, and this battle might take a while because you really dont know when hes gonna throw it at you and sadly, neither do I. my best guess is when you are really close to him, but not close that you get hit by it while its swinging. when he does eventually throw it at u, circle around him and hit his tail. I dont know about you, but I think this is a Lizalfos wearing armor! after a few slashes he will get the ball-and-chain back and start swinging it again. repeat these steps 3-4 more times and darkhammer will die. grab the ball and chain, then move onto the next room. the ball and chain lets you smash through all kinds of stuff, including ice walls! Big boss: Twilit Ice Mass Blizzeta Difficulty: *** ---------------------------------- ----------- The nice yeti, Yeta, you used to know has transformed into this red-eyed, sharp- toothed monster because of the Mirror of Twilight shard. she creates a huge case of ice around her, which LOOKS unbreakable. Not to the ball-and-chain! Start swinging the ball-and-chain as Blizzeta comes close to you, then let go of it. Part of her ice breaks off, and she starts spinning out of controll.Hit the ice again, about 7 more times. when you do, Blizzeta smacks into the wall, screaming (which sounds very unpleasant). She makes a new ice encasement around her, along with ice weapons following her. when they all fall down, try to destroy as many ice blocks as you can. then, they will form a circle around you. blizzeta is about to fall in the center of it! Hurry and get out of the circle! when Blizzeta falls, smash her with the ball-and-chain. repeat this 2 more times, then Blizzeta will return to Yeta again. Yeto, Yeta's husband, charges into the room, then the 2 yetis start saying lovey-dovey blah blah blah. when they hug, millions of hearts surround them, until finally the heart container pops out! you also get the mirror of twilight shard for all your troubles. ==================================== Temple 6: Temple of Time bosses***** Location: Sacred Forest Grove ==================================== ========= =================== Mid-boss: Darknut Difficulty: **** ----------------- ----------- Sure, this guy has a weird name, but dont mess with him. hes a crazy fighter. an easy way to beat him is to use hidden skill #5 (Mortal Draw) Put your sword away and when he gets close press (A). then use a shield attack on him. if it works, you will be able to use the helm splitter. immediately use this and then 4 simple slashes. Hes already about half-way done! keep on repeating this until all of darknut's armor falls off. he throws his huge sword at you and takes out a smaller, lighter one. Time for a change of plans. Instead of using mortal draw and helm slpitter, use the back slice. this will only stun him, but then give him 4 sword slashes. the battle will be wild, but eventually u will come out on top. A gate opens, revealing a chest (as always) open it to find the dominion rod! this handy tool will bring any statue to life. use this on the statue by the window. U will need him to get to the boss. Big boss: Twilit Arachnid Armagohma Difficulty: *** ----------------------------------- ----------- What do ya know... Gohma is in this game too! but they changed her a lot- they made her an actual spider lol! heres the way to defeat her: have your dominion rod out and your heros bow set to (B). Armagohma will begin to walk around on the ceiling. get an arrow ready. when she stops she will open her eye. this is your chance to hit her! If you dont, she will shoot a laser at you... weird. but if you do, she will fall. quickly get the dominion rod out and use it on one fo the giant statues in the corners (whichever one she is next to, of course). press (B) to pound her stomach. Armagohma will begin to walk up the walls back on the ceiling where she lays some eggs (as always) get rid of all the baby gohmas. after you kill them all take out another arrow and shoot her eye again when shes ready to "Shoop Da Whoop!". You have to do this for a total of 3 times. after her body blows up, her eye is still alive! it crawls away from you, so shoot it with an arrow. she explodes for the final time, revealing a heart container and a Mirror of Twilight shard. only one more to go! ==================================== Temple 7: City in the Sky bosses**** Location: Lake Hylia (Use Cannon) ==================================== ========= ======================= Mid-boss: Aeralfoes Difficulty: *** ------------------- ----------- As always, you step into a circular room that is quiet...too quiet. Something zooms behind you, then approaches you from the front. he may look funny, but this is a foe to be aware of! This is the Aeralfos! Start with taking out your clawshot- his shield looks just like a clawshot medalion! when hes about to charge at you, he holds up his shield. this is your chance to fire the clawshot! the clawshot pulls him to you and you give him a few slashes. if you want, use a sield attack and then a helm splitter to get rid of his helmit! after some slashes he takes off for the skies again. follow the same tecnique as before. after you hit him this time, he will fly out of the room through one of the windows. Be careful at choosing which one he comes out of! its always random. when you hear wings beating rapidly, hurry up and clawshot his shield again. a few slashes later, Aeralfoes falls. a secret passage opens, and u clawshot up to it. inside is another clawshot-making your weapon a double clawshot!! double clawshot your way out of this room. Big boss: Twilit Dragon Argarok Difficulty: **** ------------------------------- ----------- this is my favorite boss personally. at the top of the city, a dragon swoops down at you. he just missed you! this is Argarok, and hes ready to fight. clawshot onto one of the pillars, from one pillar to the next. Argarok gets curious, so he begins to follow you. when you get to the top of a pillar, clawshot onto his tail and quickly put on your iron boots to bring down the dragon. clawshot back to the tower and repeat this 1 or 2 more times. after that, half of his armor falls off and you see a crystal on his back. thats his weak spot! all of the armor flies off of him, and it starts to rain. this brings out the peahats, the flying plant things you clawshot onto. clawshot back up the pillar and then clawshot onto a Peahat. watch out- Argarok begins to shoot fire at you! clawshot from peahat to peahat, until argarok gets exhausted. clawshot onto the crystal on his back and give him a few stabs from your sword! he throws you off of him, and you have to climb the tower again. repeat this 2 more times. the final time u do this while swinging on the peahats, argarok's brain apparently gets bigger and he turns around and blasts fire right in your direction! quickly turn around and clawshot on the peahat thats behind you. then he will get exhausted again and clawshot onto his back for the final time and give him some last sword strikes. Argarok begins to roar and then he explodes, revealing the last Mirror shard piece and another heart container! now it's off to the mirror chamber in Gerudo Desert to get to the Palace of Twilight. ====================================== Temple 8 Palace of Twilight bosses**** Location: Gerudo Desert's Mirror Chamber ====================================== ========= ============================== Mid-bosses: Phantom Zants Difficulty: *** ------------------------- ----------- I put "Mid-bosses" because you fight phantom Zant twice. good news:hes easy both times! ROUND 1: Phantom Zant appears and he sends a ball of Twilight into the sky, making millions of twilit keeses (the bat things) defeat them all, then phantom zant will start to make another ball. this is your chance to hit him! after a while, he will teleport somewhere else and make another ball. defeat the enemies that come out, then hit zant with one last row of hits (depending on if u used a jump attack) he will explode into millions of black fog pieces, so steer clear. hit the giant hand thats coming out of the ground and it'll let go of a glowing ball. this is called a sol. midna explains that its like the sun. carry the sol back to the place where you entered, while avoiding the hand that was holding it. he will try and take it away from you! ROUND 2: PZ(phantom zant)is back and hes got a new trick up his long sleave. first, he sends out a bunch of twilit baba serphants. defeat at least half of them, then the rest will dissapear. PZ will begin teleporting all over the place. My strategy is just stand in the middle and wait until he comes to you. chasing him around wont do any good. Sometimes, he will stop and begin to make a ball of energy, then teleport somewere else. just stick with my plan and dont go chasing him! after you beat him again, he will explode into another cloud of twilight. get the sol again and return to the place where u began, while avoiding the hand again, and you will get the Master Sword of Light! this will kill almost any twilight enemy in one shot! However, it only works in the Palace of Twilight... Big boss: Usurper King Zant Difficulty: **** --------------------------- ---------------- Ok, this is a long explanation, but im almost done so i'll make this as fast as i can. This is one of the funnest (and funniest) boss battles in the game! first, you fight Zant in the place where you fought Diababa, the first boss. fire the gale boomerang at him, then give him 2 sets of slashing. Zant then takes you to where you fought Dangoro, the midboss for Goron Mines. He begins jumping and tilting the stage (he sounds a bit like Luigi a this point lol) , so run up to him so he dissapears. you might want to wear the iron boots for safety. keep on running to him until he starts shooting fire balls at you. when hes done, he needs to take a breather, so give him a slash or 4. repeat this 1 more time and hes done in this place! Put on your zora armor and iron boots, cuz now your in the lair of Morpheel. a giant zant head comes out of the ground, and it opens to reveal Zant inside. wait until he stops shooting fire balls at you, then clawshot him out of the head and start giving hi a few slashes as he tries to swim away! he appears in the zant head again, and the head sinks. now, 4 zant heads come out of the ground. only 1 random head has Zant in it. if you catch up with him, Clawshot him and continue slashing him. Take off the iron boots and zora armor. yo are now in Ook's room! use the same tecnique you used for beating the mad monkey: slam into the tiki poles twice when he starts shooting the fire balls at you. this makes Zant fall, so slash him now. repeat this 1-2 more times. You're probably getting dizzy now, but this is the 2nd-to-last place. You find yourself in Blizzeta's room! Zant made himself grow, and you have to dodge him when he falls. take out the ball-and-chain and smash his foot. If you hit him, he will yell "Owie! Owie!" over and over, then shrink to a size smaller than you! give him some hits from your sword (it could be hard to catch up to him, however, cuz hes hopping so fast), then use the same tecnique when he grows again. do this 1 or 2 more times. The final place Zant takes you is outside Hyrule castle town, where zant turns his hands into blades! get ready to block and do some counter attacks like crazy! keep on hitting Zant like crazy, too. when he starts spinning, give him a spin attack of your own! he will stop, then take some deep breaths. time to hit him! when zant finally falls, you appear back in the throne room, where Midna gets the fused shadows back and kills zant!! lol, i love that part. zant blows up, revealing the last heart container. if you got all the heart pieces, this should be your last heart. congratz! ======================================= Final temple: Hyrule castle Bosses***** Location: Hyrule Market North ======================================= ========= =================== Boss 1: Ganon's Puppet Zelda Difficulty: **** ---------------------------- ----------- Ganondorf possesed zelda and now you have to beat her up. If youve played Ocarina of Time and beat Ganondorf, you know how to fight Puppet Zelda. Just hit back lightning balls she shoots at you with your sword (you must do it 3 times to kill her). if she makes a Triforce on the ground, run away cuz it really hurts! Also watch out for her sword swipe move. Boss 2: Dark Beast Ganon Difficulty: ***** ------------------------ ----------- This is Ganondorf's beast form. to beat him, you have to shoot an arrow at the crystal on his head. then get out of his way because hes gonna slide across the ground and slam you! thats when you hit the hole thats on his stomach. do this about 1 or 2 more times. when the arrows stop working, transform into a wolf and when ganon charges at you, hold down the (A) button, then press either left or right on the control stick to make Midna throw him. turn back to human and hit him one last time! Boss 3: Dark Rider Ganondorf Difficulty: **** ---------------------------- ----------- this is Ganondorf riding his evil horse. his only attack is calling upon Phantom Riders, which just ram into you. you are riding Epona, and Zelda has to fire arrows at Ganondorf. That just stuns him, then you have to hit him with a spin attack. Do this up to 3-4 times. if you fall off of Epona then quickly get back on! **FINAL BOSS: Dark Lord Ganondorf** Difficulty: ***** ----------------------------------- ----------- The grand finale is you fighting Ganondorf in combat! If you bought Magic Armor and you have lots of Ruppees, now is the best time to put it on. That way, you lose ruppees instead of hearts! If you are far enough, Ganondorf will charge at you while raising his sword. press (A) to lock swords, then keep on pressing (A) until he lets go, then give him some sword slashes! OR, you can use the *Easter Egg*: take out your fishing rod, and Ganondorf, being thick-headed, will GET DISTRACTED by it! hahahaha!! just take out your rod and wave it in his face, then slash him a few times. repeat either of these 2 more times, the Ganondorf will fall to the ground, allowing you to use the finisher on him. you must do it quickly, though, or he will get back up and you have to do it all over again. If you use the finisher in time, you just killed Ganondorf and beat the game. Congratulations!!! :D Just a reminder, this is property of me, Daveizcool. DO NOT COPY THIS FAQ! ITS NOT RIGHT! I took my time to type this and I dont need people stealing my work and saying they did it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EDIT: July 1st 2008: fixed a lot of misspelled words, and added in Ganondorf's Easter Egg. Also, please dont copy my FAQ. One person did already, and I dont like that. SO DONT COPY! >:( -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EDIT: July 3rd 2008: Added in difficulties for bosses, just because I was bored. I fixed some other spelling mistakes, too. ;) I also made the Zant paragraph a little bit clearer to read, since it was so big. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EDIT- February 7th, 2009: made a few more spelling corrections and added a few more things to the paragraphs. I also added Temple Locations, and made the Phantom Zant article a bit easier to read by separating Round 1 and Round 2 into 2 separate paragraphs.
