Introduction ========================== Well, here I am, with another FAQ, fvor SNES this time.This FAQ was made for the best game of all time, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.It's for those bosses that seem to nag and nag and nag at you... and you cant seem to beat. Hey, I know how it feels! That's why I made this FAQ, to help cowards like me(lol).No, really, I made this FAQ to help people who are having trouble and can't beat the bosses NO MATTER WHAT THEY TRY. And so, as I come to the closing, I must give you a warning...DO NOT USE THIS FAQ UNLESS YOU ARE REALLY IN NEED.I mean, if you want to spoil the whole entire game,because I AM going to spoil it for you. You know that, don't you?So, read this AFTER beating the game, or if you really, REALLY need help. Understood? Okay, now that we understand each other, please let me get to the next section? (Not that I'm going to let you stop me) =========================== 2. For Starters =========================== Okay, here we are ankle deep in my FAQ! I can't seenm to close my mouth, can I? Oh, well, I love to talk, and... well, I'm getting off the subject, so let me get into what this second section is about.It tells you a litle about the bosses.Well, anyway, as in the other Zelda games,the items in the big chest are the key to defeating the boss, as in the Swamp palace,Eastren palace, and others.All the bosses have something in common, that you probably could see- they all have a weak spot, or something that will make killing them a WHOLE lot easier.And of course, I have a rating for the bosses, on a scale or one to five stars, five being VERY hard and one being ridiculously easy.With that in mind, let's go! ===================== 3. Light World Bosses ===================== The light world bosses are easy compared to the ones later on. To help you out, I'll tell you the location and how to get there, on top of everything else, as you will see in a few minutes. 1st boss: Ball and chain trooper Description: an armored soldier with a spiked ball on a chain Location:Hyrle Castle How to get there:Defeat the soldier who has the key Items needed:Pots, Boomerange, or Sword What to do:Throw the pots at him for an easy win,or throw the boomerang and hit him with the sword. Watch out for his spiked ball attack! Difficulty:* 2nd boss: Armos Knights Description:six moving statues Location:Eastren Palace How to get there: Kill all the enemies in the room prejourning it Items needed:bow & arrow , or sword What to do:This boss is pretty easy,all you have to do is hit it with three arrows, until you get down to the last one. It will turn red and charge at you, trying to stomp you.Just move around and shoot! If no arrows are handy, the good ol sword will work just fine Difficulty:** 3rd boss:Lamolas Description:Three large centipedes Location:Desert Palace How to get there: have big key and lantern handy Items needed: sword or Arrows What to do:This boss is easy too, just a tad harder, not much troble. The lamolas with spit out 4 rocks before coming up.Hit them in the head, until there is only one left.He will spit out EIGHT rocks. Approach him quickly, but with caution, or you will get hit. You can also use Arrows, but for less damage Difficulty:*** 4th boss: Moldorm Decription:A bigger version of the littler worms. Location:Tower of Hera How to get there: go up the stairs, then drop down the ledge Items needed:Sword and/or spin attack What to do:This guy is easy, if you know what to do.See that tail? Hit it,preferably with the spin attack.Be wary of the edges, or you will have to start all over again (ugh). After you hit him five or so times, he starts going really fast! One more hit to the tail should do it. Difficulty:*** 5th and final boss (of the light world)Agahnim Descriiption:A large,evil wizard Location:Hyrule Castle How to get there:After the cinema,hack open the curtain Items needed:Master sword and gool luck(seriously) What to do: He is much easier than he seems. All ya hafta do is reflect his yellow beams, hack at the blue ones, and get at the sideswhen he goes to the top.A couple of hits, and her gives you a message, then you are taken to the Dark World. Difficulty:*** ====================== 4.Dark World Bosses ====================== Much harder bosses in this part, folks!Time to get down and dirty with it.Much harder, as you should know. Same as last time, just follow the FAQ! 1st boss:Helmassaur King Description:A large helmassaur with a green jewel in his head Location:Dark Palace How to get there: Big key and lantern Items needed:Sword and bombs,or hammer What to do:I saved him for the last boss.He is even harder than Trinexx! Anyway, first things first. Take off his mask with hammer or bombs.threee hits will do it. Avoid his tail(When it starts swinging fast) by getting into one of the unspiked corners.After you get off his mask,hit the jewel in his head several times for a victory.Watch out for the fireballs! Difficulty:************** (No joke) 2nd boss: Arrghus Description:jellyfish surrounded by his larvae Location:Swamp palace how to get there:water fall and key Items:lucky charm and hoookshot/w sword combo What to do:Circle around when the larvae do, pull them off and kill them /w hookshot , then go after him when they are all gone, after each hit he tried to smash you, so do it FAST Dificulty:**** 3rd boss:Mothula Decription:Giant moth Location:Skull Palace How to get there:Secret passage and hole Items:Fire rod and sword What to do:You will drop into a room with the moth. The floor will moves, but if you have gotten the treasure from the Ice palace already It won't take off as nearly as much damage, if you are slammed into the spikes.Also, the spikes move, making him the hardest boss yet.Aslo, beware of the beams he shoots from his body. Make sure to have a bottle of blue potion on hand, and a fairy, as you will need both.8 hits with the sword, so this is the reccomended route to take, but it's easier to hit him from a distance,with the fire rod, only takes about 13 hits to kill him once and forever. Difficulty:**** 4th boss:Blind the theif Decriiption:Lovely lady, alias ugly demon after exposing in sunlight, in the empty boss room. Location:Gargole's domain How to get there:Lead the locked maiden to empty room with the square of light in the center of it. Items:Tempered sword What to do:After getting the maiden to the locked room, lead her to the center of it where the patch of light is! After exclaming on how bright it is, she will turn into Blind the Theif.Hit him as fast as you can, and avoid the floating heads that shoot beams at you and circle the room. After losing 3 heads, he dies.He's not as easy as he looks. Difficulty:**** 5th boss:Kholdstare Description:3 frozen eyeballs Location:Ice Palace How to get there:Drop down hole on the left, in room 6-4, pick up the silver block with the Titan's Mitt. Items:Fire rod and sword What to do: Once you enter, shoot ice sheild 8 times to make the shield melt, all the while avioding the falling ice balls that plop down from the cieling .Then shoot them as many times as possible,in a sequence preferabbly ,avoiding the same ice balls that come down from the ceiling. Each eye takes 6 hits with the fire rod. Difficulty:*** 6th boss:Viterous Description:Large eyeball with little eyeballs surrounding it. Location:Misery Maze How to get there:Use big key to open the door- many steps to get there, but that is enough info to make this a walkthrough! Items:Sword What to do: Stay clear of the slime and the middle,as the slime will hurt you, and Viterous will shoot lightning from the center, exactly like Aganhim's surpreme attack the first time around. Get rid of the little eyeballs then kill the big one that climbs out of the slime to attack you.It only takes a few hits to lay this monster to rest. Difficulty:** 7th boss:Trinexx Description:Big turtle with three heads Location:Turtle rock How to get there:Cane of Somaria and big key Items:ice rod, fire rod, sword < Golden preferably>, and sheer good luck What to do:Take out the ice head to avoid hassle, If you don't, you will be slipping while Trinexx is buisibly freezing you over> by using the fire rod, vice versa on the other head, use your sword once you do that..It will turn into a snake creature,hit it in the middle < It flashes, and that part only takes about 4 hits>.Watch out for that "unmovable" head, as when you least expect it, it will move out where ever you are, and try to attack you! Be quick and move! Difficulty:***** 8th boss:Agahnim Description:Crankly old wizard with two ghost wizards Location:Ganon's tower How to get there:C'mon... you know the routine Items:Good aim and sword What to do:Aim all beam attacks at him, don't bother with the others. Now he has two clones with him! Don't worry, you can tell easily which one is him, the other two are tansparent, but can hurt just as much> Aim at the real one, and after ahwhile, he will fall and Ganon's spirit will come out of him...poor old guy... Difficulty:*** 9th boss:GANON!! Description:Evil man in pig suit Location:Pyramid of power How to get there:Drop into the hole Items:Prayer and every other item that's a weapon What to do:Hit him with the sword as many times as possible, avoiding his attacks,which is extremely hard to do, or use magic cape.. Also use Cane of Bryna, as it does double duty, protecting while attacking, as you counter Ganon's attacks with the Sword< golden, hopefully!>He will then send blasing things at you. Use the Hookshot to foul things up, and hit him if possible. Then the outer tiles will break off. Hit him if ya can,. Then the lights will go out. Light them back up, hit him with the sword.He will turn blue, then hit him with the silver arrows, as you can kill him with only four arrows of this type, if your aim is true.After every turn make sure you light up the torches, or you will die. If you have not gotten the Silver arrows, you are in for a long and hard battle.After he is defeated, he will yield the TRIFORCE!Seeing it spinning is just spectacular... but I will leave it up to you.. congrats, you have beaten the game!
