Link | These skeleton creatures wield two swords and will try to walk right up to Link, and slash at him with them. The attacks are incredibly slow and are very weak, making the Stalfos one of simplest enemies to defeat in the game. While they don't really travel in packs too often, they do tend to re-spawn. Link just needs to slash his sword once at the Stalfos and it will be defeated. Stalfos will almost always leave a single red [[Rupee|ruby]] behind as a reward. They can be found in Goronu and Lupay. | ||
