This is a list of enemies found in Majora's Mask.

Termina Field

Bad Bat

Bad-Bat.png
Main article: Bad Bat

Bad Bats are larger versions of keese. Also like keese, they tend to flock in groups, but are typically (although not exclusively) found outdoors.

Individually weak enemies, they can be killed with almost any damage-dealing attack. They are mostly a problem while climbing ladders, while Link cannot attack or shield.

Bio Deku Baba

Main article: Bio Deku Baba

Bio Deku Babas are aquatic versions of normal Deku Babas, growing from lily pads which float on the surface. If severed from their lily pads, they become mobile and leap at Link if he comes close.

Dodongo

Dodongo-MM.png
Main article: Dodongo

These massive lizards with only two legs will crawl around very slowly and blow fire at Link if Link gets too close.

They're only vulnerable at their tail, so sneak around to the back and attack them. Using Jump Attacks (Z + A) works the best. After being hit, they'll circle around quickly, so jump out of the way and get behind them again.

Green ChuChu

Main article: Green ChuChu

These blobs of water are just like every other type of Chuchu. They can be defeated with pretty much anything and grow back after a time.

Guay

GuayN64.png
Main article: Guay

It's a crow that acts the same way as the Keese and Bad Bats do.

Play a song for the one in Termina Field to make it drop Rupees for about a minute.

Peahat

Peahat.png
Main article: Peahat

These gigantic plants will come out of the ground and spin around with helicopter-like blades on the bottom. They will try to fly above Link at an angle, so try to stand on the side that doesn't have the blades.

To defeat it, smack the "root" area to damage it. Chase it down and repeat.

Peahat Larva

Main article: Peahat Larva

Red ChuChu

Main article: Red ChuChu

These blobs of water are just like every other type of Chuchu. They can be defeated with pretty much anything and grow back after a time.

This particular type have Recovery Hearts inside them.

Skullwalltula

Skullwalltula.png
Main article: Skullwalltula

These smaller versions of the Skulltula will crawl around the walls or ground and can be killed with pretty much anything.

Takkuri

MM Takkuri.png
Main article: Takkuri

This odd looking bird with two fluffy ball looking things on the sides of its enormous head will steal rupees, bottles or even Link's sword if it touches hm. Whatever it steals will appear in the Curiosity Shop, so its safe to assume its a lackey of either Sakon the Thief or the Curiosity Shop Owner.

There's only one of these in the entire game, and that's in Termina Field at the entrance to Milk Road.

This is probably the enemy with the most health in the game. It takes a very long time to kill. It can be killed up close, but in my personal experience, Fire Arrows are the safest, fastest way to kill it.

When killed, these things drop a whopping 200 Rupees!

Romani Ranch

Them

Main article: Them

Woodfall

Big Octo

Big-Octo.png
Main article: Big Octo

These pesky obstacles guard the entrances to continue through Southern Swamp.

Just about any projectile attack will take them out in one shot. At the beginning, you'll have to kill them using the boat ride from Koume.

Black Boe

Black Boe.png
Main article: Black Boe

These small black fuzzies with two orange eyes blend into dark places and usually appear in swarms. It seems as though they often appear one at a time.

The best way to kill them is to either stand still and swipe your sword (horizontally), run in circles with some Deku Spins, or use a few well timed Goron Stomps.

Carnivorous Lily Pad

CarnivorousLily Pad-MM.png
Main article: Carnivorous Lily Pad

Deku Baba

Deku-Baba.png
Main article: Deku Baba

These things are about four or five feet tall and resemble a venus fly trap. When you get close, they try to nip at you.

Wait for a gap in their attack and go in for the kill with anything you got. If you use a weak attack, it will only stun them and you'll have to hit them again.

Dinolfos

Dinofols-MM-1.png
Main article: Dinolfos

These walking dinosaurs with metal plating on their heads come equipped with a sword and shield. Don't fight them as a Deku Scrub or Zora because you'll be vulnerable to fire.

Use your shield to defend against their attacks. When they jump at you or they're about to breathe fire, use A to jump or roll out of the way. When you see a gap in their defenses, stab them. They're not too hard in Goron Form either.

Dragonfly

Dragonfly-Model.png
Main article: Dragonfly

This odd looking dragonfly enemy has a tail equipped with an electrical charge. Very strange. Use Z target methods of defending.

To defeat it, either shoot it with projectile attacks or jump out of the way when it attacks and smack the tail with any close range attack.

Gold Skulltula

Gold-Skulltula.png
Main article: Gold Skulltula

In the Skulltula Houses, you will find these harmless Skulltulas that, when killed, drop Tokens. When all are collected, something special will happen.

Follow the sounds of the Skulltulas to find them and kill them with just about anything. You'll need the Hookshot to get some of the Tokens though.

Hiploop

Hiploop.png
Main article: Hiploop

These giant yellow beetles have a temper, and for some reason, they sometimes come with metal helmets to protect themselves. If that's the case, use the Hookshot, Bombs or the Blast Mask to take it off.

When they have no mask, these things take one to two hits to kill. However, they do hit you quite hard when they charge you and have a tendency to knock you off ledges.

Mad Scrub

MM MadScrub.png
Main article: Mad Scrub

These particular Deku Scrubs aren't friendly and will attack you if they see you. They will burrow within their Deku Launchers between attacks, making them invulnerable for a short time.

Wait for them to pop up and hit them with either a projectile or any close range attack. When flying at them as a Deku yourself, try swerving back and forth to avoid their fire, then land beside them and use a Deku Spin to take them out.

Mini Baba

Mini Baba.png
Main article: Mini Baba

These very short Deku Babas can't move at all and only drop Deku Nuts.

There's no strategy to them, just kill them with anything.

Moth

Moths-MM.png
Main article: Moth

Octorok

Octorok.png
Main article: Octorok

These things are similar to the Mad Scrubs in that they attack, then submerge themselves in water for a moment.

You can freeze these things with an Ice Arrow to make them into a block that you can climb on.

To kill them, use projectile attacks or reflect their attack back at them with your shield.

Skulltula

Skulltula OoT.png
Main article: Skulltula

These large spider-like enemies with a skull face for the top will drop down when you get near to them. They will then turn around repeatedly, and spin very quickly if you get too close. If you hit their front side, it'll make them swing back and forth.

To defeat them, wait for their soft side to be shown, then attack using any attack with some range, or projectile attacks such as the Hookshot or Bubble Blast.

Snapper

Snapper.png
Main article: Snapper (Majora's Mask)

These giant turtles are only vulnerable underneath their shell, so they will try to use their whole body to their advantage. Try to keep your view towards the center of the room when fighting more than one so you can see them all coming towards you.

Since the goal is to hit underneath their belly, you have to flip them first. To do so, you can use a Goron Stomp, Bombs, or the Deku Launchers (flowers) to hit their belly directly.

Withered Deku Baba

Withered-Deku-Baba-MM.png
Main article: Withered Deku Baba

These Deku Babas don't have enough water or something, they just spin around in a tiny circle. They also grow back after a few moments, so stock up on the Deku Sticks they drop.

They can be killed with just about anything.

Wolfos

Wolfos-2.png
Main article: Wolfos

These huge wolves will stand on their hind legs as they try to hit you with their front paws.

Either wait for them to let their guard down, or lure them into attacking, dodge, then come in for the kill while their back is to you. A single hit to their backside with just about anything will kill them instantly.

Snowhead

Eeno

Eeno-Model.png
Main article: Eeno

These mounds of snow live in... well... snow, and will throw snowballs at you when you're within range. There are large ones as well, which will split into three regular ones when attacked.

They can be killed pretty easily with just about anything. Use lots of shielding or running when getting near them. Fire does take them out fast, but not necessary.

Shoot the ones in Termina Field with Light Arrows for a pleasant surprise.

Fire Keese

Fire-Keese.png
Main article: Fire Keese

When a Keese touches fire, it will carry flames with it. If it touches you at this point, it will pass the flames onto you, making you take additional damage.

Kill it with just about anything. Be careful to not let it touch you though.

Freezard

Freezard.png
Main article: Freezard

These jaggedy man-sized ice statues attack in short bursts and some follow you whenever they can.

To kill them, just wait for a gap in their attack and run in for the kill. Using the Hookshot for the first strike is very effective and brings you to them. Use a Fire Arrow for a one hit kill.

Giant Bee

Giant-Bee.png
Main article: Giant Bee

These wasp-like enemies are very weak and will come out if you attack a beehive. They're very quick, so they can be hard to hit.

Just about anything will kill them, such as rolling as a Goron not even charged up!.

Ice Keese

Ice Keese.png
Main article: Ice Keese

When a Keese touches blue fire, it will carry flames with it. If it touches you at this point, it will freeze you, making you unable to move for a few moments.

Kill it with just about anything. Be careful to not let it touch you though.

Keese

Keese-MM.png
Main article: Keese

These are the typical bats of the Zelda series. Unlike the Bad Bats however, these ones can enhance their attack. If they touch a red flame, they become Fire Keese, if they touch a blue flame they become Ice Keese.

To kill it, you can use just about anything. Arrows, vertical sword slashes, and Deku Spins work the best in my opinion. The latter is particularly true for large groups of them.

Red Bubble

Redbubbleoot.png
Main article: Red Bubble

These floating skulls surrounded by red flames will wander about and fly towards you if they see you.

To kill them, you can attack them with pretty much anything. If it is a weak attack, however, their flames will go out and they'll bounce around on the ground instead. Attack them once more in this state to defeat them. If they charge at you, use your shield to block them, which will make them bounce around as well.

If they touch you, you will catch on fire. Roll around or attack to put the flames out.

Tektite

Tektite-MM.png
Main article: Tektite

These crab-like enemies have four hairy legs and a single red eye. They will jump towards you whenever possible. They can float on the surface of the water and hide under the snow, so, be prepared for those traits.

The easiest way to kill them is to use a vertical slash in their direction.

White Boe

White Boe.png
Main article: White Boe

These small white fuzzies with two orange eyes blend into snowy places and usually appear in swarms. Sometimes they fall down like snow before taking form.

The best way to kill them is to either stand still and swipe your sword (horizontally), run in circles with some Deku Spins, or use a few well timed Goron Stomps.

White Wolfos

White-Wolfos-2.png
Main article: White Wolfos

This winter addition of the Wolfos will stand on their hind legs as they try to hit you with their front paws.

Either wait for them to let their guard down, or lure them into attacking, dodge, then come in for the kill while their back is to you. A single hit to their backside with just about anything will kill them instantly.

Great Bay

Blue ChuChu

Blue-ChuChu.png
Main article: Blue ChuChu

These blobs of water are just like every other type of Chuchu. They can be defeated with pretty much anything and grow back after a time.

You can also shoot them with an Ice Arrow to freeze them into a block, which you can then move around and use.

Deep Python

Deep Python.png
Main article: Deep Python

It's the Zelda version of those things from Banjo-Kazooie! These giant pythons live in Pinnacle Rock in giant holes in the walls. If you come close, they'll come out very quickly. If they touch you at all, it will end up biting you and spitting you out, similar to Morpha from Ocarina of Time.

You can either use your Electrical Barrier (swimming + R) or stand on the ledges near the opening and use shoot your fins at it. I prefer the latter myself.

Desbreko

Desbreko.png
Main article: Desbreko

These large skeleton fishes have other, smaller skeleton fishes swimming around it. When killed, the smaller fish will die too.

There are two ways to kill these. From far away, using either Arrows or your charged up Fin Attack, or swim into them and use your Electrical Barrier (Zora + swimming + R).

Dexihand

Dexihand-Model.png
Main article: Dexihand

These blue hands that stick out of the walls will grab you and throw you a short distance if you get too close. You will often need to use them to your advantage.

They can be killed with pretty much anything. If it's underwater, I suggest just swimming through them with your Electrical Barrier (swimming + R).

Garahna

Main article: Garahna

Gerudo Guard

Gerudo-Guard-Art.png
Main article: Gerudo Guard

Gerudo Pirate

Gerudo-Pirate.png
Main article: Gerudo Pirate

These very quick swordswomen have two curved swords that they are just dying to sink into you.

Run whenever they duck down because they're about to use a jump attack on you. If they touch you with it at all, it will knock you out and they'll put you outside the fortress.

It's easiest to fight them as normal Link, but it's also very easy with the Deku Mask, surprisingly. Use Z target methods to shield and stab at the appropriate times.

Yellow ChuChu

Yellow Chuchu.png
Main article: Yellow ChuChu

These blobs of water are just like every other type of Chuchu. They can be defeated with pretty much anything and grow back after a time.

This particular type have 10 Arrows inside them.

Leever

Leever.png
Main article: Leever

Another classic Zelda series enemy, these cone-like enemies live in the sand and will rise to the surface, spinning in your direction, then sink back into the sand. They're very large in this particular game.

Any attack will do to defeat them. The sword is easy enough.

Like Like

Like-Like.png
Main article: Like Like

These huge gooey masses are another classic Zelda enemy. They inch around very slowly. If you get too close, they will swallow you, spit you out, but keep your shield. Eep! They can't take the Mirror shield though.

To defeat them, just about any attack will work. Those with further range and are sharp work the best, mainly your sword.

Shell Blade

Shell-Blade.png
Main article: Shell Blade

These giant clams are pretty annoying. Get your distance if at all possible.

To kill it, wait for it to show its vulnerable spot and use any projectile attack you have, such as Arrows, the Hookshot.

Alternatively, you can smack them up close while wearing the Zora Mask.

Skullfish

Skullfish-MM.png
Main article: Skullfish

Small skeleton fish that appear in front of you and attempt to take a chomp at you; 'nuff said.

These things tend to appear one at a time when in open water. You can hear them coming by the crackling or clicking sound they make.

The best thing to do is really just avoid them, but if you feel like it, they can easily be killed with just about anything. The best way to take them out is to simply swim through them with your Electrical Barrier (Zora Mask + Swimming + R).

Ikana

Amy

Amy-Poe.png
Main article: Amy

The green ghost of the sisters, she will become invisible, thus, invulnerable. Keep her Z targeted and your shield to her until she attacks.

When she becomes visible and isn't spinning at you, she will be vulnerable. Either smack her with your sword or shoot her with Arrows. I suggest using a Jump Attack to inflict lots of damage.

Armos

Armos.png
Main article: Armos

Some of the statues around with a sword and shield will come alive when you touch them. They will then come towards you in bursts for a little bit before returning to their resting place.

Throw a Bomb at it or use a Fire Punch to damage them. After that, they'll spin towards you, blinking rapidly. In a moment, they will explode. Either avoid them or damage them again.

Beamos

Beamos-MM.png
Main article: Beamos

These statues just look around in a circle. If they catch sight of you, they will shoot their beam at you through their eye. You can defend against this attack with the Mirror Shield, but it's better to just avoid it altogether.

Use Bombs or the Blast Mask to kill it. It will then explode, and the head will pop off, which will also explode after a moment.

Beth

Beth-Poe.png
Main article: Beth (Poe Sister)

The blue ghost of the sisters, she also can become invisible and invulnerable. Z targeting her will make her invisible, so don't do it. Either use your shield or run out of the way when she comes at you.

When she becomes visible and isn't spinning at you, she will be vulnerable. Either smack her with your sword or shoot her with Arrows. I suggest using a Jump Attack to inflict lots of damage.

Big Poe

Big-Poe.png
Main article: Big Poe

This ghost repeatedly appears behind your camera view, tries to take you out.

Turn around when you hear it appear, Z target it, then use A to jump out of the way. Now shoot it with an arrow! After a few hits, it will bite the dust and you'll be able to put it in a bottle.

Blade Trap

OoTBladeTrap.png
Main article: Blade Trap

Blue Bubble

Bluebubble.png
Main article: Blue Bubble

These floating skulls surrounded by blue flames will wander about and fly towards you if they see you.

To kill them, you can attack them with pretty much anything. If it is a weak attack, however, their flames will go out and they'll bounce around on the ground instead. Attack them once more in this state to defeat them. If they charge at you, use your shield to block them, which will make them bounce around as well.

Also, you can shoot them with Light Arrows for lots of Rupees! =D

If they touch you, you will become Jinxed, meaning you blink blue and cannot draw your sword for about one minute. Play the Song of Storms if you have it to blow the curse away, or wear one of the Transformation Masks in the meantime.

Death Armos

Death-Armos.png
Main article: Death Armos

These guards look like they belong on a Chess board. They're blocky and hold a sword and shield in their hands. When they see you, they will fly towards you very quickly and slam down at your position. Just run (and roll) to avoid them.

To kill them, you must shoot them in the chest with a Light Arrow. This will flip them upside-down. Next, trick them into slamming the ground. They'll land on their head and explode.

They can also be avoided altogether by simply wearing the Stone Mask.

Eyegore

Eyegore in MM.png
Main article: Eyegore

This large statue with an enormous eye for a head will walk slowly towards you, smashing the ground occasionally. It is invulnerable most of the time.

To defeat this foe, run up to it, then quickly run back. This will cause it to send out a barrage of laser attacks. These can be deflected with the Mirror Shield, but not very successfully.

While its eye is still yellow, shoot it with an arrow. It will then run back to the start very quickly. Do this four times to kill it.

Floormaster

Floormaster-MM.png
Main article: Floormaster

These giant undead hands crawl around in dark places. If they "see" you, they turn green and float towards you very quickly.

Either sneak up on these things or wait for them to charge you, then either dodge or use your shield. Smack them with your sword a few times to cause them to break into three smaller hands.

The smaller hands walk around very quickly, but if they grab you, they'll suck your life away. Kill them quickly to ensure that they don't combine to create a large one again. If they touch you as a large one, they'll take you back to the beginning of the area.

Floormasters can be killed very easily by shining light on them.

Garo

Garo.png
Main article: Garo

These robes with two beedy eyes and two little swords sticking out will appear when you wear the Garo Mask. They are killed quite easily and give useful pieces of information before disappearing.

Wait for it to come at you, then either defend, then stab, or dodge then stab from behind.

Gibdo

Gibdo-MM.png
Main article: Gibdo

These mummy enemies wander around the Ikana area, and attack by letting out a paralysing shriek and leaping onto Link before draining his health.

Wearing the Gibdo Mask renders them non-hostile and willing to talk to Link, which is required Beneath the Well. Burning off their bandages with fire reveals a ReDead, who can no longer be spoken to, but otherwise continues to act like a Gibdo.

Joelle

Joelle-MM.png
Main article: Joelle

The red ghost of the sisters, she also can become invisible and invulnerable. Z targeting her will make her invisible, so don't do it. Either use your shield or run out of the way when she comes at you.

When she becomes visible and isn't spinning at you, she will be vulnerable. Either smack her with your sword or shoot her with Arrows. I suggest using a Jump Attack to inflict lots of damage.

Meg

Meg-MM.png
Main article: Meg

The purple ghost of the sisters, she is different than the rest in that she has the ability to create illusions. Four of her will surround you. Don't take too long deciding which to attack, or she'll hit you.

They all spin when they appear. The real one will spin an extra time. Z target that one and shoot it with an arrow. Repeat this a few times and Meg will submit defeat.

Nejiron

Nejiron-Model.png
Main article: Nejiron

These giant living stones resemble rolling Gorons, and will surface from the ground and roll towards Link. Attacking or touching them will cause them to explode. They will ignore Link while wearing the Stone Mask.

Use projectile attacks to kill them, such as Arrows.

Poe

Poe-Model.png
Main article: Poe

It's a black form wrapped in purple and gray robes that floats around. According to the Poe collector guy in Ocarina of Time, they are spirits created by the hate and evil in the world.

If you Z target them, they will disappear and become invulnerable for a short time repeatedly. So, try to avoid doing that. Just run up and use any regular attack to defeat them.

After they're dead, you can put their spirit in a bottle and sell them at the Curiosity Shop in Clock Town for 50 Rupees each.

Real Bombchu

Real-Bombchu.png
Main article: Real Bombchu

Not much to be said about these smiling rats carrying Bombs other than the fact that they look funny.

The easiest way to defeat them, as Tatl points out, is to let them see you, then just defend. Your shield will protect you and they'll take themselves out. Arrows aren't too shabby either.

ReDead

Redead-MM.png
Main article: ReDead

Found primarily in the Ancient Castle of Ikana, these zombies attack in the same way as Gibdos, jumping on Link to drain his health after letting out a paralysing shriek.

Unlike Gibdos, wearing the Gibdo Mask does not allow Link to speak with them. However, wearing the Gibdo Mask, Garo Mask or Captain's Hat sets them dancing, twirling on the spot and open to attack. While burning a Gibdo's bandages off with fire reveals a ReDead, these do not react to these masks like a ReDead, although they no longer talk like a Gibdo either.

Wallmaster

Wallmaster.png
Main article: Wallmaster

These giant undead hands are similar to the Floormasters, but they hide on the ceiling instead. When you see a shadow larger than your own appear at your feet, and a sound like air swooping in, it means one is about to land on you. Move around to avoid this from happening.

To kill it, hold still for most of the duration of the shadow, then start running. When you hear it thump down behind you, turn around and chase after it, showing it no mercy.

Ikana Graveyard

Iron Knuckle

Iron-Knuckle.png
Main article: Iron Knuckle

These deadly enemies are slow moving heaps of armor that will cause massive damage if you are careless. They can take out several Hearts in a single swing, so keep your distance.

Because they turn slowly as they move, you can Z target them and walk around them from afar, then come in for the kill once you're behind them. This can be difficult and doesn't always work.

The more conventual way to take them out is to inch forward, then move or jump back once you see them make hostile action. Run forward after they've attacked, as they will take a moment to recuperate. use this to your advantage and take a hit, then get back to a safe distance.

After several hits, some of its armor will fall off. This allows it to suddenly move much faster. Be warned as well that now they will also lunge forward when they attack, giving it extra range of sorts. Just keep the process up a bit longer and it will perish soon enough.

Stalchild

Stalchild.png
Main article: Stalchild

These skeletons look a little funny. They have long noses, which makes it seem as though they were a reptile of sorts when they were alive. In this game, they're supposed to be the undead soldiers of Ikana.

When you get the Captain's Hat, you can speak with them to learn useful things and even order them around. Also, they won't attack you when you wear it.

To defeat them, wear the Captain's Hat if you have it, then smack them with whatever you like. They die pretty easily.
