This scorpion will guard with its claws. When it opens up to prepare an attack, slash at the eyes in the direction that the claws are not guarding (if the claw opens vertically, slash horizontally). Eventually, one eye will turn red. This signifies that claw will lunge and attempt to grab Link. If it does, break free by shaking the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. Once a claw has been hit enough times it will fall off. Do the same to the other claw.  
Moldarach's weakness are the eyes on its two claws. To harm him, Link will need either horizontally or vertically at the claws, depending on how Moldarach positions its claws. After being hit, the claw will turn black briefly, then turn colorful again, ready to be attacked further.
 
Moldarach has only one attack to harm Link. At some point, one of Moldarach's claws will turn red, signifying it will lunge at Link in an attempt to grab him. To counteract this, Link can simply dodge out of the way. If the claw grabs a hold of Link, he can simply shake to become free once more. After one claw has been sliced enough, it will disappear from Moldarach, cutting down his attack power in half. Link will need to continue the same method as before on the second claw to defeat the first phase of Moldarach.

Once the claws are gone, it will change its attack strategy and bury itself under the sand. Locate the moving pile of sand, and take out the [[Gust Bellows]] to try to uncover the creature beneath it. When enough of Moldarach is showing, it will jump out and resume fighting Link above ground.  
When both claws are gone, Moldarach will change its attack pattern by diving into the sand to hide momentarily. You can follow its movements by watching the sand for a large bump, signifying where Moldarach is. You can either use the Gust Jar to blow away the sand covering it, or wait until it pops out of the sand.
 
After popping out of the sand, Moldarach will attempt to swing its tail at Link, trying to damage him with the spike on its tail. Link can roll or jump out of the way to dodge its spikes. Moldarach may also try to ram at Link with its entire body, taking a full two hearts of damage - its strongest attack. If Link is agile enough, he can dodge to the left or right to avoid it. As a last attack, baby scorpions known as Aracha will continually pop out of the sand and will try to attack Link. They are easy to defeat though, as they can be blown away with the Gust Jar or killed with one slice of the sword.


Now Moldarach will jab with its stinger or ram Link with its head. When Moldarach is preparing to charge, its eye will close. Be sure to get out of the way. If it does manage to successfully charge, a side-jump or backflip is enough to successfully dodge. When charging the jab attack, its eye will turn red, signifying the weakness. Stabbing its eye will hurt it, and cause it to bury under the sand again. Repeat this process until Moldarach is defeated.
To finish Moldarach off, Link will need to stab the eye on the front of it. After being hit once, Moldarach will disappear back into the sand. After repeating this process a few times, Moldarach will be defeated.
