{{quote|This massive monster swims beneath the desert's sand. It is a subspecies of Molduga that stored up a great deal of energy by sleeping underground for hundreds of years.

The '''Molduking''' is the strongest of all Molduga, and has a slightly different coloring. There is only one in the game, being a part of the second DLC pack: ''The Champions' Ballad''. It is found to the south of the [[East Barrens]] in the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]]. Upon defeat, it will drop three chests, as well as an array of weapons, such as the [[Golden Claymore]]. It will also provide access to the [[Keive Tala Shrine]]. | The '''Molduking''' is the strongest of all Molduga, and has a slightly different coloring.

The molduking has 2000 HP, but it also takes 1/5 the usual damage from non-electric attacks, giving it an effective 10,000 HP if one decides to fight it with brute force. Electrical attacks deal damage as normal, and, as such, are far more effective than alternative methods of damage. | The molduking has 2000 HP, but it also takes 1/5 the usual damage from non-electric attacks, giving it an effective 10,000 HP if one decides to fight it with brute force.

This boss swims underneath the sand, and is practically identical to its little brother, the [[Molduga]]. It has extremely good hearing, so if you move it will be alerted and begin to swim to you. The best thing to do here is to stand on land which isn't sand, such as a broken pillar or a rock. You can use its hearing to your advantage though, by standing on a rock and tossing out a [[Remote Bomb (Rune)|Bomb]] in its direction. It should notice it, and begin swimming toward it. Once it reaches it, the Molduking will jump out of the sand, swallowing the bomb. At this point, you should detonate the bomb and the boss will fall to the ground, vulnerable to hits. This enemy has a very high defense, and regular sword slashes will not deal a lot of damage. The trick here is to utilise [[Urbosa's Fury]], or electric weaponry, which deals a great amount of damage. Using this in conjunction with a powerful two-handed weapon like a [[Royal Claymore]] will deal sound damage. Repeat this process a few times to take down the boss. | This boss swims underneath the sand, and is practically identical to its little brother, the [[Molduga]].
