User:Sanityormadness/Skyward Sword Enemies: Difference between revisions

Ampilus is a desert-dwelling enemy that looks much like a hermit crab; it will attack Link by rolling across the sand on its hard shell. Its body is electrified, and inside of its hard shell is a crab. When Ampilus stops moving, Link can walk up to it and slash the head with Link's sword to kill it.

 

After a few seconds, the shell of Ampilus will explode, and a new Ampilus will crawl out of the sand to take its place.

These small one-eyed scorpions are found in the Lanayru Mining Facility. They are baby scorpions, resembling the boss of the Lanayru Mining Facility, Moldarach. They will attack by jumping on a body part of Link and biting him. They can be defeated by every damaging weapon in one hit.

 

Aracha will sometimes leave behind a Jelly Blob when defeated.

Armos are statues found in the Lanayru Mining Facility. To defeat them, Link must use the Gust Bellows to spin the colored screw on top of their head, opening their mouth. From here, Link can slash the crystal inside their mouth, or place a bomb inside to kill them.

Bokoblins have a much different visual look this time around, taking on a more moblin-like appearance. They are commonly found in both field and dungeon areas. When they detect Link's presence, they will sprint towards Link and strike at Link with their sword.  

Bokoblins wield small swords and will use them to block Link's attacks. They will move the sword from left to right, or hold it up, blocking directional attacks from Link's blade. Three successful hits from the Goddess sword will defeat a Bokoblin.

The small variant of this Greenish blue Chuchus is first found in the Waterfall Cave on Skyloft. It will slowly move towards Link, then gnaw on Link's leg when it gets close enough. One sword slash is enough to kill it.

The large variant is found in both Skyloft and the Ancient Cistern. Hit them with a vertical sword slash to separate it into two parts, then kill each part individiually.  

These crow-like creatures will fly in the sky above Link. They don't actually any damage, rather, they just poop on Link's head. Link can promptly shake off this dastardly attack by shaking them off, then attacking them with the sword when they come close.

Keese serve the same purpose that they have in previous Zelda titles. They are bat-like creatures that fly around the overworld and within dungeons with the primary purpose of trying to dive into Link. When they are low enough to the surface, Link can use a sword slash to defeat them. Alternatively, they can be defeated with almost any weapon that Link have in Link's arsenal. Furthermore, Link can defeat multiple keese at once with a single crack of the whip.

This rare type of Keese is only found in the Fire Sanctuary. They act much like regular Keese, but if they make contact with Link they will make Link's items unusable for a few seconds.

Lizalfos resemble lizards with human-like attributes. They wield wooden shields, which they can use to block Link's attacks. They can simply block Link's direct attacks or hide under their shield for even greater protection from Link's blade. They can be defeated with the sword, bombs, or arrows.

Myu are spikey green balls that are found in the forest of Faron and in Skyview Temple. They will latch onto Link's leg when Link step on them, and will stay there until they are shaken off or they explode. This is the only way they attack, and will not harm Link if Link stay far enough away. From a distance, Link can use the Slingshot or the Bow to kill them. If this is not an option, Link can also slash at them with the sword from a distance to start the countdown until they explode.

Octoroks are now land creatures that do not resemble their counterparts from older 2D Zelda titles. They also have some similarities to deku scrubs from previous Zelda games. Octoroks will shoot rocks towards Link, but whenever Link comes close, they will hide under patches of grass. In order to defeat an octorok, Link can deflect the rocks back by lunging Link's shield forward knocking the rock back towards the enemy. Link can also use the sword to slash the rock back, or use the whip to pull the octorok up from underground for a short period of time, allowing Link to slash away with Link's sword.

Pyrups are tiny seal-like creatures that hide inside walls or beneath rocks. They have a single antenna hanging from its head, the function of which is currently unknown. They attack by spraying a line of fire towards Link, and can also obstruct Link's path in this manner. They can be defeated by throwing a bomb into the hole in the wall they hide in or the rock they hide beneath, killing the enemy in the process.

During the day, Remlits are normal cat-like creatures, but at night they turn into aggressive monsters that will attack Link. Link can't actually kill a Remlit, rather, hit it twice with Link's sword to stop it from attacking Link. If Link throw a Remlit after making it passive it will attack again, and the same will happen if they fall off the edge of Skyloft and fly back.

Sentrobe are flying creatures who have large eyes in the center of their bodies, with large shells on each side of the eye. The propeller on the top of its body make it appear to be a part of the Peahat and Seahat family. They will shoot rocks out of their eye to attack Link, but Link can deflect these back with Link's shield to kill the Sentrobe.

Technoblin wield large electric clubs that can be used to attack Link. Their eyes are also electrified, giving the enemy a very different image. If Link swing Link's sword and it hits the electrified sword Link will take damage and be stunned for a couple of seconds. The trick is to either attack from the side it is not defending, or to wait until after it attacks, as it will be vulnerable to damage.
