They can be found in [[Western Hyrule]]. Dairas come in two variations in this game; orange and red.
====Orange Daira====
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.


====Orange Diara====  
====Red Daira====
Orange Diaras do not throw their axes, but they only hack their axe continuously as their opponent draws near. They are particularly powerful, and should be fought with caution. It is best to do several hit and run tactics on the Orange Diara to avoid getting hurt.
Red Dairas are more powerful than their orange counterparts. Instead of charging forward, they throw a limitless stream axes at [[Link]]. As with the Orange Daira, Link's shield cannot block the projectiles, except with the [[Reflect Spell]]. [[Downward Thrust]]s are recommended against these enemies. In order to defeat this formidable foe, Link must leap over the flying axes and quickly strike before another can be thrown. Recklessly charging without paying heed to the Daira's attacks is almost always fatal.  


====Red Diara====
====Game Data====
Red Dairas are more powerful than Orange Dairas. They can throw their axes at [[Link]] and it causes twice as much damage as the Daira itself. Link's shield cannot block their axe throws, and he can only block it with the [[Reflect Spell]]. [[Downward Thrust]]s are recommended against these enemies. Red Dairas probably the most powerful overworld enemy in all of Western Hyrule. So, fight it with caution.
