Gohma is a recurring boss in The Legend of Zelda series. It usually appears as a spider-like creature with one eye, which is its weakspot.

The Legend of Zelda

Main article: Gohma (The Legend of Zelda)

In The Legend of Zelda, Gohma first appears as the boss of the sixth dungeon, Level 6: The Dragon, guarding the sixth Triforce Shard. Gohma later appears as the mini-boss of the eighth dungeon, Level 8: The Lion.

Link's Awakening

In Link's Awakening, Gohma is the mini-boss of the fifth dungeon, Catfish's Maw. Arrows and the Hookshot are effective, although arrows are most effective.

Ocarina of Time

Main article: Queen Gohma

		Gohma It's one of the parasitic monsters inside the Deku Tree! Its eye is vulnerable when it's red!

In Ocarina of Time, Link encounters a Gohma called Parasitic Armored Arachnid, Queen Gohma. Queen Gohma is the boss of the first dungeon, Inside the Deku Tree.

Oracle of Seasons

Main article: Gohma (Oracle of Seasons)

In Oracle of Seasons, Gohma is the boss of the fourth dungeon, Dancing Dragon Dungeon.

The Wind Waker

Main article: Gohma (The Wind Waker)

In The Wind Waker, Gohma is more scorpion-like than spider-like. It is the boss of Dragon Roost Cavern, and is defeated using the Grappling Hook.

Twilight Princess

Main article: Armogohma

In Twilight Princess, Gohma is called Armogohma. It is a very large spider that is the boss of the sixth dungeon, Temple of Time.

Non-Canon Appearances

Hyrule Warriors

Main article: Gohma (Hyrule Warriors)

Gohma also appears as a boss in Hyrule Warriors.

The Faces of Evil

Gohma appear in the same fashion as they do in The Wand of Gamelon.

The Wand of Gamelon

Gohma appear as enemies in the Ahitaru stage. They are fairly large, orange creatures with four legs and a massive eye. They will pace around on the ground, trying to walk right into Zelda. Gohma aren't overly powerful, but they are very sturdy, and will take a number of sword slashes to defeat. The more efficient way is to toss a single bomb at a Gohma, as it will defeat it in one hit. Gohma will always leave behind a blue ruby, worth 10 rubies, so even using a single expensive bomb is worth it to defeat one of them.

Trivia

The mini-boss, Wart, from Majora's Mask, has a similar opening to Queen Gohma.

-{{Main|Queen Gohma}}
-In ''Ocarina of Time'', Link faced a Gohma called '''Parasitic Armored Arachnid, Queen Gohma'''. Queen Gohma act as the boss for the first Dungeon of the game, Inside the [[Great Deku Tree]].  This boss fight was the first in 3d and therefore added a lot of different battle strategies.  One that was most often implemented was the use of [[Deku Nut]]s to stun it then Z-Target and jump slash to double your damage.  This version also made Link to fight off [[Gohma Larva]], which also appeared in ''Twilight Princess''.
-=== Oracle of Seasons ===
-Gohma is the boss of the fourth dungeon, Dancing Dragon dungeon. It appears as a spider with one large claw that covers his eye. In the first phase of the battle, Gohma will charge at you and try to grab you with its claw. If it grabs you, it will throw you around the room and you will take high damage. You must slash at its claw with your sword until it falls off. Now you can equip the [[Slingshot|slingshot]]. Gohma will move around the room, opening and closing its eye. It will also shoot out baby spiders that you can kill for recovery hearts and seeds. You must use your slingshot to shoot Gohma in the eye when the eye is open. After about five shots, Gohma will be defeated.
-=== The Wind Waker ===
-Called the normal way, Gohma, ''The Wind Waker'' version is more scorpion-like than spider-like. It is the boss of [[Dragon Roost Cavern]], and is defeated using the [[Grappling Hook]].
-=== Twilight Princess ===
-{{Main|Armogohma}}
-Gohma is called [[Armogohma]] in ''Twilight Princess'', is a very large spider that is the boss of the [[Temple of Time]]. It must be defeated using the [[Bow]] and the [[Dominion Rod]]. After the battle is almost completely through, the eye of the spider pops out and turns out to be the body of another spider. This spider (along with the larvae that surround it), is easily defeated using the Bow.
