Big Octorok
Template:Boss The Big Octo is a boss from The Minish Cap. It is a normal-sized Octorock, but as Link is minish-sized, it will be giant!
Pre-Battle
After melting the element only to have it stolen by that GIANT octorok, you can enter the room it went into. Once inside, the octorok will turn around and screech at Link, much to his surprise. The battle will unexpectedly begin.
Hey! Give it back!
Battle
-The battle begins with the octorock shooting boulders at you, which you are supposed to deflect with your sword. If you don't deflect the boulders they will hit the walls and shatter into pieces that stick to the ground. After deflecting three(3) boulders back at it, the octorok will freeze itself and the flower on its back will dry out and lower to your level. The entire floor will also freeze. You will have to use your Flame Lantern to light the dry flower on fire. However, the octorok will use ice breath on you. The flame will run up the stem and melt and burn the octorok. The octorok will start freaking out and ramming into walls, causing blocks to fall. Eventually, the octorok will stop ramming the walls and the ice will thaw.
He is throwing boulders at Link!
He froze itself!
-In the second part of the fight, the octorok will suck in air before it shoots boulders. If you get sucked up by it, you will take heavy damage and get launched across the room. After deflecting three(3) boulders, the octorok will freeze everything again. The battle is the same here, but the octorok will spin around faster. Just light the dry flower on fire using the Flame Lantern to make the octorok burn and slam into the wall. Look out for the falling blocks and the ice will thaw.
The battle is still the same. Just keep setting his tail on fire!
Burn him down!
-In the final part of the battle, the only difference is that the octorok may create a smokescreen that you'll have to light using the Flame Lantern. Avoid the air the octorok sucks in and deflect the boulders it shoots. This time, the octorok won't freeze itself. After you've deflected three(3) boulders the octorok will spin around while starting to explode. It will eventually explode into a cartoony puff.
Link had to use his Flame lantern.
-After a few seconds the Water Element will float down into Link's hands. Congratulations on your third element. A heart container and a warp tile will appear. Grab the heart container(if you want it) and go through the warp tile to return to the entrance.
Link obtaining the Water Element!
