To open the dungeon Link must then head outside. Leaving the Goron City, Link will find a cliff to his right overlooking the blocked entrance to the Cavern. There is a gap in the fence there with a [[Bomb Flower]] next to it. Link must lift the Bomb Flower and throw it through the gap so it lands and destroys the rock. Link can then enter the cavern. | To open the dungeon Link must then head outside. Leaving the Goron City, Link will find a cliff to his right overlooking the blocked entrance to the Cavern.

As a Fire dungeon, the Dodongo's Cavern is mainly composed of rocky walls and lava pools. There are also a lot of [[Bomb Flower]]s. This dungeon is not as hot as [[Death Mountain Crater]] or the [[Fire Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Fire Temple]] so Link is not timed without the [[Goron Tunic]]. | As a Fire dungeon, the Dodongo's Cavern is mainly composed of rocky walls and lava pools.

The dungeon has two miniboss battles, each of them involving a pair of [[Lizalfos]]. The battles take place in a two-story room with a river of lava that flows from one floor to the next in a "lava-fall." The river is studded with rocks that Link must jump between to challenge the Lizalfos. The first battle takes place on the lower section of the room, and the second one is on the upper platforms. | The dungeon has two miniboss battles, each of them involving a pair of [[Lizalfos]].

{{Main|King Dodongo}} | |||
[[King Dodongo]], the boss of the cavern, is found in the only room of the dungeon's B1 floor. When Link enters the boss room above, he will find himself in a small square room. There is a chest here containing extra Bombs as well as a square tile in the middle of the room which can be destroyed with a Bomb. This reveals a hole leading to King Dodongo's chambers. | |||
The room Dodongo is fought in consists of a large square lava pool ringed by a narrow path barely wide enough for the Infernal Dinosaur. The cavern has a Bomb Flower situated in each corner, which Link can use to battle Dodongo with. | |||
The fight consists of Dodongo's two primary actions. The first involves him rolling around the pathway, attempting to crush Link. He will always cover two lengths of the path, corner to corner, and the rolling attack can be blocked by shielding with the [[Hylian Shield]] equipped. After this, he will typically cease by hitting a wall, breaking out of his curling motion, and begin to slowly walk toward Link. If he gets near Link, Dodongo will begin inhaling deeply before breathing a long stream of fire that covers one length of the path. | |||
While Dodongo is inhaling for his fire breath attack, Link can throw a Bomb into its mouth. This will cause Dodongo to swallow the bomb, and it will blow up in his stomach and make the dinosaur collapse. This is the only time Dodongo is susceptible to damage; Link can attack it with his sword only here. Typically, three repetitions will finish the battle. | |||
Defeating Dodongo causes it to roll into the lava in the room and die, cooling the lava in the process to form a flat rock floor. Link can then collect a [[Heart Container]] and take a warp point outside, where he receives the [[Goron's Ruby]], the Spiritual Stone of Fire, from Darunia. | |||
