Gohma is the boss of the fourth dungeon, Dancing Dragon dungeon. It appears as a spider with one large claw that covers his eye. In the first phase of the battle, Gohma will charge at you and try to grab you with its claw. If it grabs you, it will throw you around the room and you will take high damage. You must slash at its claw with your sword until it falls off. Now you can equip the [[Slingshot|slingshot]]. Gohma will move around the room, opening and closing its eye. It will also shoot out baby spiders that you can kill for recovery hearts and seeds. You must use your slingshot to shoot Gohma in the eye when the eye is open. After about five shots, Gohma will be defeated.
