Hit it when it lunges at you, and it will stand upright. Cut it quickly to get a Deku Stick!"

A Big Deku Baba is a larger variation of the original, first seen in Ocarina of Time. It is a bit stronger but has the same attacks. By far the best way to kill them is to use a well timed jump attack. Another way to defeat one is target it and use your shield, then walk forward to taunt it into attacking and once the head lunges out start attacking it. It is a somewhat risky method though.

When defeated, if you struck its head it will drop Deku Nuts, however if you struck its neck it will leave behind a Deku Stick, much like a Withered Deku Baba. It is an annoying enemy that will constantly regrow every now and then. You can find the Big Deku Baba in Kokiri Forest and inside the Forest Temple as an adult. Big Deku Babas also can be found in Link's childhood in Master Quest.
