Majora's Mask Boss Guide

Skull Kid Encounter

On the night of the Final Day, ascend the Clock Tower to confront the Skull Kid. As Deku Link, use a fully charged Bubble Blast to strike him, causing him to drop the Ocarina of Time. Retrieve it to trigger a memory of Princess Zelda teaching you the Song of Time. Play this melody to return to the Dawn of the First Day, setting the stage for your adventure.

Odolwa – Masked Jungle Warrior

As the boss of Woodfall Temple, Odolwa wields a massive sword and exhibits agile movements. He can summon minions and create rings of fire. To defeat him:

Direct Combat: Use Z-Targeting to lock onto Odolwa. Wait for openings between his attacks to strike with your sword.
Deku Link Strategy: Utilize the Deku Flowers around the arena. Launch into the air and drop Deku Nuts onto Odolwa’s head to stun him, then follow up with sword attacks.
Bombs: When he summons minions, place bombs to eliminate them efficiently.

In the 3DS version, Odolwa has a pronounced eye on his head, indicating his weak point. Stunning him exposes this vulnerability for targeted attacks.

Goht – Mechanical Monster

Located in Snowhead Temple, Goht is a mechanical beast that charges around the arena. To defeat him:

Goron Roll: Transform into Goron Link and use the Goron Roll to chase and damage Goht. Collect magic jars to maintain your roll.
Fire Arrows: Alternatively, shoot Goht with Fire Arrows to stun him, then approach and attack.

Be cautious of his electrical attacks and falling debris during the battle.

Gyorg – Gargantuan Masked Fish

The boss of Great Bay Temple, Gyorg, is a formidable aquatic foe. Strategies include:

Ranged Attacks: From the central platform, use arrows to stun Gyorg when he surfaces.
Zora Link Combat: After stunning, dive in as Zora Link to deliver melee attacks, then quickly return to the platform to avoid counterattacks.

Remain vigilant of Gyorg’s ramming attacks and summoned minions.

Twinmold – Giant Masked Insects

From the beginning, put on your Giants Mask to make yourself larger, and be sure to have some bottles of magic or Chateau Romani ready, as the mask consumes a lot of magic. Hit each of the two monsters in the head or tail until both of them are defeated.

Majora’s Mask – Final Confrontation

The climactic battle against Majora unfolds in three distinct phases, each presenting unique challenges. Below is a comprehensive guide to navigating this final confrontation. Ensure you have ample arrows, magic potions, and health-restoring items. Chateau Romani is particularly beneficial, granting unlimited magic for the entire three-day cycle.

Acquiring the Fierce Deity’s Mask can significantly simplify the battle. This powerful mask is obtained by collecting all other masks and trading them with the children on the Moon.

Phase 1: Majora’s Mask

Majora’s Mask levitates around the arena, executing spinning attacks and emitting energy beams. Target its back to stun it. Zora Link’s boomerang-like fins are effective, as they can curve around to hit from behind. Once stunned, switch to normal form and strike with your sword. After inflicting some damage, the remains of previous bosses (Odolwa, Goht, Gyorg, Twinmold) will animate and attack. Eliminate them using arrows or by reflecting Majora’s laser beams with the Mirror Shield.

Phase 2: Majora’s Incarnation

In this form, Majora becomes more agile, dancing and sprinting around the room, occasionally launching energy attacks. Keep your shield raised to block sudden attacks. Use Light Arrows or Zora Link’s boomerangs to halt its movement. Once stunned, close in and deliver sword strikes.

Phase 3: Majora’s Wrath

Majora’s final and most formidable form features whip-like appendages, utilizing them for both melee and ranged attacks. Stay at a mid-range distance to avoid whip grabs and kicks. Shoot Light Arrows when an opportunity presents itself. After stunning, approach and attack with your sword. Be prepared to block or evade spinning top projectiles that Majora may deploy.

Alternative Strategy: Fierce Deity’s Mask

If equipped with the Fierce Deity’s Mask, the battle becomes considerably more straightforward. Activating this mask transforms Link into a powerful warrior capable of launching energy beams with his sword, allowing for rapid depletion of Majora’s health across all phases.
