Mothula (A Link to the Past): Difference between revisions

Once [[Link]] drops down into the room where Mothula resides, the mechanical floor will start to move, which is totally surrounded by [[Blade Trap]]s, posing another threat Link has to avoid besides Mothula, that start to slide across the room. Mothula attacks Link by shooting out lasers that come in groups of three at regular intervals while trying to ram into him. While avoiding Mothula and the Blade Traps, Link can attack Mothula by using his sword, but this is not practical due to it being harder to hit Mothula with his sword due to its erratic movement. Link can use the dungeon item, the [[Fire Rod]], to attack Mothula from afar. This is the most efficient method to defeat Mothula since the Fire Rod is twice as powerful as the [[Master Sword]]. However, the Fire Rod uses a lot of magic power, so Link should either bring [[Green Potion]]s or [[Blue Potion]]s to restore his magic. If Link runs out of magic, then he should defeat Mothula with his sword. Another useful method is for Link to release a [[Bee]] or the [[Golden Bee]] since Mothula is the only boss that the Bee can attack. The Bee proves to be useful because Link is able to focus on dodging the sliding spikes while the Bee attacks Mothula in his place. Once Link defeats Mothula, he is rewarded with a [[Heart Container]] and the [[Crystal|Third Crystal]].
