These skeletal warriors make their return from previous Zelda titles. Watch out for their jump attack, which can do a great deal more damage to you than their regular sword attacks. Use Z targeting to get close while using your shield, then take a quick stab as soon as you see them let their shield down. Try to circle around them when they jump at you. Also, if you get right in their face, you can easily "force them" to attack and get a quick stab in. If done right, you can take them out very quickly this way. They are found in the [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]], the [[Water Temple]], the [[Shadow Temple]], the [[Spirit Temple]], and in [[Ganon's Castle]].

The Stalfos in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' are skeleton-like enemies that wield two large swords which they use both to block and to attack. Link must attack from specific directions that are unprotected, requiring good timing and accurate sword slashes.
