When Demon King Ganondorf is first encountered towards the end of the game, he still resembles his mummified "phantom" self, resting in a nest made of Gloom where his power is being restored. He fully reappears after slamming his fist down into the nest causing a tremendous Gloom eruption, which fully restores his original [[gerudo]] form as it was before the game's [[Imprisoning War]]. In battle, he will often attack [[Link (Breath of the Wild)#Tears of the Kingdom|Link]] with his [[Gloom Sword]], but can at any point switch over to a [[Demon King's Bow]], a [[Gloom Spear]] or a [[Gloom Club]] and can unleashes with his bow and club some swarm of gloom wraths that upon making contact with Link ''permanently'' take away one of his hearts, though it will deal standard damage if Link is down to just 1 Heart Container (this damage would otherwise be fatal, but it can be withstood with 1-hit protection) and reduce durability of all weapons and shields other than the [[Master Sword]] at 1. Unlike any previous boss in ''Breath of the Wild'' or ''Tears of the Kingdom'', Ganondorf is the only other person capable of executing a [[Perfect Dodge]] besides Link, and will perform a counter-dodge if Link attack first. It is recommended to wait for him to dodge your attack, and then perform a Perfect Dodge on his counterattack, which will leave him vulnerable to a [[Flurry Rush]]. He has 2500 HP in this phase. | When Demon King Ganondorf is first encountered towards the end of the game, he still resembles his mummified "phantom" self, resting in a nest made of Gloom where his power is being restored.

{{quote|The fearsome form that Demon King Ganondorf attained after unleashing the power of the secret stone. The ancient sages were no match for him and only barely managed to contain his devastating power.
