Link's Awakening

The Bomber is a dangerous flying enemy that is located around the central part of Koholint Island. They fly around the screen, dropping bombs at random. Unless you are very close to them, attacking a Bomber with your sword is not advisable, since they will usually dodge your attacks. Unless you have the Boomerang or Magic Rod, it would be best to stay away from them as much as possible.

In small areas, Bombers can be nearly impossible to avoid. Never stand in place when a bomber is near you, always keep moving. The best item to use against a bomber is the magic powder. Sprinkling the magic powder on a Bomber will turn it into a fairy, and may be worth the risk.
