The Arm-Mimics may be a confusing enemy at first, as they don't move on their own. They will instead mirror your movements in opposite directions. If you move up, they will move down. If you move left, they will move right. A simple sword slash will do nothing but push this enemy back. Spin attacks will kill an Arm Mimic, but most people simply dash through them with their [[Sword]] and [[Pegasus Boots]] equipped. If you don't yet have the pegasus boots, It is best to either back towards them and do a spin attack or jump over them. They behave in the same way as [[Mask-Mimic]], but without the mask. It looks odd, like a potato-person.
'''Arm-Mimics''' are identical to the [[Mask-Mimic]] aside from not having a mask. They move by mirroring Link in opposite directions. If Link moves up, they will move down. If Link moves left, they will move right. A sword slash will do nothing but push the Arm-Mimic back. To defeat them, use spin attacks or charge through them with the [[Sword]] and [[Pegasus Boots]].
