The Adventure of Link

Deelers are found in the forests of Hyrule. They live in the branches of trees and descend on a silky thread to attack their prey.[2][3] There are two variations of Deeler and each varies by strength depending on whether encountered in Western Hyrule or Eastern Hyrule. Link's best option for dealing with these arachnids is side-stepping them as they descend and stabbing with a few well-timed sword slashes or meeting them in the air with an Jump Thrust.

Red Deeler
