The '''Talus''' is one of the many overworld bosses found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. Every Talus disguises itself as a collection of rocks embedded in the ground, and the boss forms as [[Link]] draws near. The Stone Talus is likely to be the first boss the player encounters in the game, with one situated in the [[Forest of Spirits]] on the [[Great Plateau]]. | The '''Talus''' is one of the many overworld bosses found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''.

At range, all Talus beasts can '''throw their arm''' ({{H|0.25}} up to {{H|3.25}} depending on the hit; ''this damage pierces armor''), losing the arm in the process. If at any time the Talus is missing an arm, it may decide to slam that side down to '''regenerate its arm''' by pulling new rocks from underground. If the Talus is missing both arms, it has no choice but to do so and will always regenerate its right arm first, then its left. If Link has been standing atop the Talus and striking its weak point several times, or if Link simply lingers too long atop the Talus, it will shudder and '''throw Link off''' ({{H|0.5}}). Lastly, if at any time Link is crushed by the torso of the Talus, Link takes '''basic melee damage'''. | ||
