Ook: Difference between revisions

'''Ook''' is the [[Mini-Boss]] of the [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]], and thus the first boss,{{Ref|name=OokTC|''Ook Twilight Princess Trading Card''|Ook is a crazy baboon who is the monkey leader of Faron Woods and the first boss Link meets on his quest.|Card Description}} in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. He is a white baboon that is initially presented as the crazy monkey leader,{{Ref|name=OokTC}} as he is described by one of his fellow [[Monkey]]s as having gone "funny in the head".{{Ref|TP|7586|[[Monkey]]}} He is equipped with the [[Gale Boomerang]], and during his first appearance in the game, uses it to cut down a bridge leading to the other side of the temple. In order to get to the other side, [[Link]] must free four Monkeys from their prisons and use them to swing across the void left by the bridge.

Once Link has successfully reached Ook's lair of sorts, he can fight him. Ook will use the Gale Boomerang in a number of ways, including to free [[Baba Serpent]]s that were originally hanging from the ceiling, and to directly attack Link.{{Ref|''Ook Twilight Princess Trading Card''|Ook will attack Link with his Gale Boomerang as he jumps around from pole to pole.|Card Description}} These attacks deal ¼ and ½ heart damage, respectively. In order to attack Ook, Link can roll into the pillars in which Ook attacks from; this causes Ook to lose balance and be vulnerable to either another roll or a hit from his own boomerang. Either one will knock Ook off the pillar, allowing Link the chance to attack him. By utilizing [[Spin Attack|spin]] and [[Jump Attack|jump attack]]s, Link can defeat Ook fairly quickly.
