'''Parasitic Armored Arachnid: Gohma''', or '''Queen Gohma''' is the boss of [[Inside the Deku Tree]], the first dungeon in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. The strategy to defeat the boss is revealed by one of the three [[Deku Scrub]]s just prior to the confrontation.{{Ref|OoT|910|[[Deku Scrub]]}}

Being the first boss in the game, Queen Gohma is no pushover. The battle initiates when the large arachnid drops from the ceiling and attacks Link . The young hero in green must be patient and wait for Gohma to expose her large eye. This gives him the opportunity to utilise his [[Fairy Slingshot|Slingshot]] to strike the arachnid with a [[Deku Seed]]. Doing so leaves Queen Gohma dazed on the ground with it's eyeball exposed. Link then slashes away with his [[Kokiri Sword]]. After taking a few hits, Queen Gohma begins climbing the arena pillars and latching onto the ceiling. The queen attempts to lay [[Gohma Larva]].{{Ref|OoT|617|[[Navi]]}}{{Ref|OoT|618|[[Navi]]}} However, when doing so, her large eyes turns red. Link must aim his Slingshot accordingly and strike the eye, resulting in Queen Gohma falling to the ground. This exposes the queen's weak spot in which, once again, Link must strike. The same phase repeats and Link must, like before, wait for Queen Gohma to give birth to her offspring and then shoot the eye. After dealing enough damage, this should result in the arachnid queen's defeat.  

Once Queen Gohma is defeated, her remains become a [[Heart Container]]. A portal then appears, this allows Link to transport Link back to the [[Great Deku Tree's Meadow]], where the [[Great Deku Tree]] entrusts Link with the first [[Spiritual Stone]], the [[Kokiri's Emerald]].{{Ref|OoT|140}}

*If [[Link]] utilises the [[Deku Stick]], he can deal double the amount of damage to [[Queen Gohma]], meaning the [[Boss]] can be defeated much more efficiently.
