ReDead: Difference between revisions

ReDeads make their debut appearance in ''Ocarina of Time''. Their appearance is very similar to that of a zombie. When [[Link]] approaches a ReDead, it emits a scream, immobilizing him temporarily, giving them a chance to jump on his back and start damaging him. This can damage Link greatly in a short amount of time, dealing half a heart of damage roughly every half-second. If this happens, the best way to escape is to rapidly press the A button to try and get out of its grip. They take several hits to defeat.

ReDeads in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' are pretty much exactly like their ''Ocarina of Time'' counterparts. They attack by screaming, which immobilizes Link momentarily, giving them the perfect opportunity to jump on his back, dealing tons of damage in the process. Link can defeat them fairly easily, however, as just a few sword slashes do them in. If he shoots them with the [[Bow]], [[Boomerang]] or [[Hookshot]], they just creepily stare at him. Link can actually stun a ReDead with the [[Mirror Shield]], if there is a light in the room. This does make them significantly easier to defeat.

The ReDeads in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' are known as [[ReDead Knight]]s and have many significant differences from that of standard ReDeads. They are much larger than ReDeads in any other games. Rather than attacking by jumping on Link's back, this variety screams at him, then hits him with a large sword, dealing a significant amount of damage in one hit.
