Ramrock

Ramrock is the Boss of the eighth dungeon in Oracle of Ages, Ancient Tomb. He is a giant rock headed creature with two arms. This battle consists of several phases.

Phases

First Phase

In the first phase, he will launch his arms at Link. He must knock them back with his [{Sword]] so that they counter his attacks, so aim carefully. Repeat this process about three times, and this phase will be complete.

Second Phase

In the second phase, he'll begin to fly around the room and try to crush Link between his hands. He must throw a Bomb in between his hands when he has them open. He'll crush the bombs instead of Link, and he'll take damage. This phase should take about three hits to complete with the use of bombs.

Third Phase

The third phase has him moving horizontally back and forth across the room with shields guarding his face. He will use more diverse attacks in this phase. He'll either shoot lasers or a blue orb at Link. He needs to use his Seed Shooter to bounce seeds off the north wall so that they hit him in the back. This phase will take four shots to complete.

Fourth Phase

In the fourth and final phase, he'll have two balls attached to chains for arms. Link must equip his Power Glove at this point. He will launch one of the balls at you. When he does this, go quickly over to the other ball and grab it. Drag it as far back as you can and release it. It will fly into his face and damage him. Three hits will finally defeat Ramrock.

Rewards

There are two rewards presented for defeating Ramrock. The first is the obvious Heart Container, replenishing Link's life while adding on to it. The second reward is the Falling Star essence. This is the eighth and final Essence the Hero will receive.
