Zant (Boss): Difference between revisions

The first stage takes place in the [[Boss]] room from the Forest Temple. This battle is very similar to the [[Diababa]] boss battle from earlier on in the game. Zant hovers around the boss room firing dark energy blasts at Link. Link has to block these attacks using his [[Hylian Shield|Shield]], and then he can equip the [[Gale Boomerang]] and target Zant. This brings Zant down to the surface, leaving Zant prone to attack. After a limited time, Zant warps away, thus Link repeats the original process.

The next phase takes place where we fought the temple boss of the [[Lakebed Temple]]. Equip both the Zora armor as well as the iron boots once you arrive at this third phase of the battle. Once you hit the ground a massive head mask of Zant will emerge from underground. The mask will open and Zant will be inside, shooting his standard projectiles towards Link. Z-target him and use your shield to block his attacks. Once his attacks are over, use the clawshot to pull Zant out of the mask and slash at him. He will next appear in the massive mask and it will burrow underwater. This time four masks will appears and the center ground will cave in. Only one of the masks will open that contains Zant. Repeat this same process of waiting for him to finish his attack then pull him out with the clawshot. After some more strikes with the sword phase three of Zant will be complete.

The next phase takes place back in the Forest Temple, but this time we are in the mini-boss room where we fought [[Ook]] the baboon. Change back into the Hero's Clothes and take off the iron boots. Zant will jump around the various pillars in this room and then finally settle at a pillar. He'll begin to shoot his projectiles at you once again. Roll into the pillar that he is standing on twice and Zant will tumble to ground. Unleash a series of sword slashes and then the process will start over. Keep rolling into the pillar that Zant is on and unleash more sword slashes until Zant has been defeated, completing phase four of the battle.
