Orange Daira are powerful crocodilian soldiers from The Adventure of Link. They are one of two variants of the Daira that appear in the game, along with Red Daira.

Overview

Dairas are hybrids of Hylians and alligators that wield powerful axes that can easily slice through Link's shield. They can be found in Western Hyrule, being one of the more prominent enemies that appear in Death Mountain.

Orange Daira charge Link on sight swinging their axe continuously. Link must time his attack in between swings to avoid damage. The Reflect Spell will strengthen his shield enough to repel the monster's weapon.
