1. Parasitic Armored Arachinid: Gohma
Difficulty- 1 Stuff you'll need- Kokori Sword, Slingshot, and Deku Seed Note- Make sure you've practiced on your jump attacks prior to fighting Gohma How to Defeat Boss Initially, you will walk into the room and find, presumably, nothing but darkness, but if you hit the C-Up button, to view first-person, and look around for a little, you should be able to find a small, yellow dot. Stare at this dot for a couple of seconds and it will go into a cut-scene of Ghoma jumping down from the ceiling. Use a Deku Nut to stun her and then Z-target her and slash her eye to bits with your sword. She will cowardly run away and climb the wall heading back up onto the roof, at this point keep your Z-targetting on permanently and keep your sling-shot out and ready to fire.
She will now attempt to lay a few eggs, but just before she does, her eye will turn red, which is the exact moment you need to fire at her eye (now do you see why I said leave the Z-targetting on?). She will fall down and you will be free to slash her eye again. Repeat until she is dead.
2. Infernal Dinosaur: King Dodongo
Difficulty-2 Stuff you'll need-Bomb Bag, Kokori Sword, Hylian Shield Note-Does the name sound familer? For those of you that have played the origional 8-bit Zelda you should remember this name. The the idea of throwing bombs in it's mouth is the same.
How to Defeat Boss (Make sure you have your hylian shield equiped) After the opening sequence Dodongo will be standing in front of you and throw his head back to shoot a flame at you, this is your cue to throw a bomb in his mouth(make sure your close enough so the bomb will reach him), to make it easier I would suggest z targeting him and then throwing the bomb. If you miss or are late then hug the wall in an attempt to dodge the flame, though this doesn't always protect you. Once you've succeded in throwing the bomb in his mouth move back a little to avoid the bomb explosion. Now he'll fall over and all you do is attack him with your sword (again a jump attack makes the fight go quicker). After you do that get near the wall and press the R button to have link hide under his shield, Dodongo should roll over you, causing no damage. Now, once he passes over you, turn around and face him, repeating the process of throwing the bomb in his mouth and hitting him with your sword. Eventually it will go to the cut scene, then just sit back and enjoy the scene.
3. Bio-Electric Amemone: Barinade
Difficulty- 2 Stuff you'll need- Kokori Sword and Boomerang Note- If your running low on life just get some from the pots that are around the room. Also keep moving or you'll be in for a blast.
How to Defeat Boss
A bit of a warning, this boss has many parts which get to be confusing so read carefully and try to follow along.
Part One
At the beginning Barinade is stuck to the ceiling by three connectors. What you need to do is use z targeting to lock onto one of the connecters, then use the boomerang to hit it (be sure to be moving to avoid the electrical blasts). Just repeat this process with each of the others until you have knocked down all three.
Part Two
The jelly fish that were once attached to him come out and spin around Barinade, you should seek refuge at one of the places that has a pot, and wait until the jelly fish stop spinning. Once they stop, run around and kill each of them individually while avoiding the electrical blasts. Chances are you won't get all of the jelly fish before they start spinning again. So when the spin again seek refuge at one of the places that has a pot then repeat the process.
Part Three (I'm pretty sure that this is what happens next, but I apologize if I'm wrong)
Barinade will now have more jelly fish that spin closer to him, and they will be a lot faster. Z target barinades main part and move around the room while throwing your boomerang(and avoiding the jellyfish). It might take a few throws but eventually you should break through the armor and stun him. That's your chance to destroy the jelly fish. Once barinade starts spinning the jelly fish again, just z target and repeat the process untill they are destroyed.
Part Four
Now for the final part. Z target Barinade and move around the room while throwing your boomerang, and again it may take a few times but eventually you will stun him. That is your chance to hit him with your sword. (Jump attack might work but I prefer the regular slash when dealing with Barinade) And again, just repeat until dead.
Difficulty-3.5 Stuff you'll need- Master Sword, Fairy Bow Note-I gave a 3.5 difficulty on this just because when you compare the abilitys that a first time player would have gained by this point, that makes Phantom Ganon pretty hard. Hint:The second part of him gives you a tiny taste of what the real Ganondorf will be like
How to Defeat Boss
Part One
After the opening sequence you'll see him ride into a painting. Run to the center of the room and get in the bow view (the view that appears when your getting ready to shoot an arrow). Circle around and look at each painting until you see him (be careful there are two, the fake one will turn around right before the end of the painting)
1.If the one you are watching creates a purple portal then shoot it with an arrow before he leaves the portal. 2.If he turns around then quickly press b to slash your sword, which will quickly get you out of the bow view, and then run to the edge of the platform. There is still a possibility that you could get hit with his blast. But you still stand a better chance then if you were in the middle.
After you are done search the paintings again and repeat the process until you've shot him three times with an arrow.
Part Two
Once you shot him three times with an arrow he'll leave his horse and float around. Use z-targeting and stay as far away from Ganon as possible. (If you've played A Link to the Past, think back to the Wizard. And how you used the master sword to deflect his spell back at him) Do the same thing here, when he shoots a blast at you then swing your sword when it gets near. It may take a while to get your timing down but don't worry just keep practicing. When you hit it back at him, one of three things will happen.
1. It will hit him, in which case you should run up to him and try to jump attack him 2. Ganon will hit it back, in which case you should keep hitting it back at him until it hits him. Then refer to step one. (Keep in mind that the more times it's hit back and forth the faster it will go and the more powerful it becomes) 3. It will totally miss him in which case just wait till he fires another blast
I have had experiences, be it rare, where he will hit it back at me and after I hit it back at him, he'll quickly move and fire another blast. Whatever happens just keep repeating the process of hittting it at him and jump attacking until he's dead.
2. Subterranean Lava Dragon: Volvagia
Difficulty - 3 Stuff you'll need - Master Sword and Megaton Hammer Note - Ever played wack the mole? Well this is wack the dragon then slash him with your sword
How to Defeat Boss
After Volvagia does the opening sequence stand back where you can see the entire area. On the first time there won't be a fake flame coming out of the hole so get near the first hole that you see a flame come out of (yet not too near) and when Volvagia comes out and swings the things on his head, then run up and smack him on the head with your hammer. Volvagia's head will fall down at which time you should do either a jump attack or a regular slash. Eventually he'll go back in his hole. Volvagia will then come out of another and fly around shooting a flame at you. Just run around and dodge the flame and his body, if space gets tight then roll under his body. Eventually he'll go back in a hole and repeat the process of popping out of a hole, though this time be carful and wait to see if more then one flame appears. As soon as Volvagia pops out then hit him with the hammer and slash with the sword. This time instead of flying around shooting a flame at you, he flys straight to the top of the chamber and causes rocks to fall around you. Run around avoiding them until you see Volvagia come down and enter a hole, at that moment the rocks only fall near him so stay away. Just repeat the process until dead and keep in mind that Volvagia trades off from following you around to causing rocks to fall as you go along. Once he's dead enjoy the sequence.
3. Giant Aquatic Amoeba: Morpha
Difficulty - 2 Stuff you'll need - Master Sword and Longshot Note - Morpha can be considerably easier to defeat then the last two bosses. It just depends on how you go about it.
How to Defeat Boss
Once you enter the chamber Navi will tell you that the water doesn't look right, after that jump to one of the platforms in the middle which is followed by the opening sequence. After that's over jump to the edge of the room and stand at a corner and wait(Watch out for the spikes). You should hear a sound of the water stirring, that's your cue to run to another corner of the room, once you reach it, turn around and z-target the nucleas. Then pull out your longshot and fire it at the nucleas(it may take a few trys to hook it). Once you get it over to you then slash it with your sword and it will proceed to go back to the water. Again wait till you hear the water stir and run to the next corner and repeat the process. After the first time a second tentacle appears so just be aware of that. The key to avoiding the tentacles is to listen, if you memorize the sounds that the tentacles make, then you should have no trouble avoiding them. After a while you will kill Morpha and then cue the closing sequence.
4. Phantom Shadow Beast: Bongo Bongo
Difficulty-3 Stuff you'll need- Lens of truth, Master Sword, Fairy Bow Note-I strongly suggest you have at least the first quiver upgrade, it is possible to beat him without it, but it really helps out. If you need to find it go to http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/n64/faq/zelda_64_f_2_3.txt and look in the hard to find items section.
How to Defeat Boss
Be prepared cause this guy is really strange. When you land in the room you'll be on a giant drum. All you'll see is two giant hands beating the drum (You can use the lens of truth to see the eye right now but to save magic don't use it until I say to). Now z-target one of the hands and shoot it with and arrow, which won't be easy since your bouncing, not to fear cause you can misfire some arrows cause you got the quiver upgrade right? Quickly z target the other hand and try to shoot it before the hand hits you (if it's in a fist then the arrow will be ineffective so just avoid it's attack and shoot it when it comes out of the fist shape). Once you have shot both hands then turn on the lens of truth and z target the eye. Hit it with your sword before it hits you, and then while it's laying down jump attack it as many times as you can. Now just repeat this process untill you've killed it.
5. Ironknuckle
Difficulty - 2 Stuff you'll need - Kokori Sword Note -I know this isn't an offical boss, but it kinda serves as one in the spirit temple when your a kid.
How To Defeat Boss
This guy is pretty simple. Run up to him and hit him with your sword to wake him up. Now z target him and to hit him, move in close to get him to swing his axe, then backflip right before he does. As soon as he's done swinging his axe jump attack him and immediately backflip to avoid his counter attack. Just keep repeating this process until you've killed him.
6. Sorceress Sisters: Twinrova
Diffculty - 3.5 Stuff you'll need - Mirror Shield, Master Sword, and Hover Boots Note - Once again a multiple part boss. On Twinrova the first part is harder then the second.
How to Defeat Boss
Make sure your mirror shield is equiped
Part 1
When you enter the room then go left and climb up the wall to the platform, they'll do their opening sequence and now your ready to fight. For the first part try to avoid z targeting, it just makes it harder. What you need to do is reflect the attack of one of the sisters back at the other sister using the shield (R-Button). For example, deflect the ice attack back at the fire sister and vice versa. Does that sound easy? Try doing that when their on opposite sides of the room, which sometimes happens. Anyway, deliver a hit to anyone of them 4 times and then they will merge together forming Twinrova.
Part 2
Twinrova has two different attacks, an ice one and a fire one. This is the time that you want to use z targeting to keep her in your sites at all times. Now use your sheild to absorb her attack, now if the attack was say ice then you need to try to absorb 3 ice attacks in total, though if she delivers a fire attack while your collecting ice(you can tell by which wand she holds up) then just jump away from where you are standing to the edge of the platform, but not to far since you don't want to fall off. Now on the third one you absorb, move in close so it hits her. Then equip your hover boots and hover over to the platform Twinrova lands on and slash her as many times as possible. Once she revives stay where you are, and wait until after she delivers her first attack which you will absorb with your shield. Once you've abosorbed it hover back over to the main platform and equip your kokori boots. Then just repeat the process until she's dead and enjoy the sequence that follows.
7. Great King Of Evil: Ganondorf
Difficulty - 5 (Hey he's the hardest in the game) Stuff you'll need - Master Sword, Light Arrows, Hover Boots, and many fairies and blue or green potions(fill up all your bottles). Note - You should have passed a chamber before the main one that had a lot of pots. Hopefully you didn't destroy any. They are extremely helpful if you fall down to that area
How to Defeat Boss
After the sequence the occurs once you enter the chamber, your health will be restored due to the triforce (A really big help!). A downfall is that navi won't be able to help you in this fight.
Once the fight starts run to the edge of the room, Ganon knocks out the tiles between the center area and the edge. Now use your knowledge of phantom Ganon's 2nd attack plan and apply it to here by deflecting all of Ganons magic attacks. Once you hit him, immediatly pull out your light arrows and shoot one at him. This will stun him. Now's your chance to get over to his platform and jump attack him (Use you hover boots to get there more easily, especially later on in the fight as more tiles fall). Sometimes he'll form a black vortex above his head and then shoot four spheres at you. Your best line of defense is to run away from it, while rolling to avoid them. Eventually if you hit him enough times (the more damaged Ganons cape is the more damage he has taken) he'll cough up blood and cause the tower to crumble. Then you will proceed to race out of the tower with Zelda
8. Ganon
Difficulty - 3 Stuff you'll need - Light Arrows, Biggerons Sword or Megaton Hammer (The sword proves to be more helpful), and Master Sword Note - Ever heard the term don't judge a book by it's cover? That apply's here. Ganon appears to be this huge brute but is pretty easy to defeat. (Hint: If you run out of magic or supplys draw him near some rubble so he'll have to destroy it to get to you. There's a column with magic, one with arrows, one with fairys, and a few others)
How to Defeat Boss
This time you have Navi back so be sure to use z-targeting and have your light
arrows ready. When he gets near you he'll bend over preparing to attack, that's
whe you are to fire a light arrow right into him. He'll then be stunned giving
you enough time to get around him and slash his tail with the biggerons sword,
or smash it using the megaton hammer. Repeat this process until he falls down
and zelda tells you to come get the master sword. Run over there and get it
before the fires start up again. Now it's just the same process all over again
except this time use the master sword to slash his tail. (Hint: if you run out
of magic or arrows then you can roll inbetween his legs and hit his tail that
way). Eventually Gannon will fall and Zelda will hold him with her power and
tell you to deliver the final blow. Hit Ganon with your sword right inbetween
the eyes and enjoy the great ending.
