Monsters

Overworld Monsters

These monsters will show up whenever you walk off the yellow trail or enter a cave. The moblin and slime icons represent the two types of monster scenarios, strong and weak. Generally if you are going to get attacked, either head back on the road or go toward the slime instead of the moblin.

Picture	Name	EXP	Attacks	Info
	Ache	3	Flies	Keese's annoying cousin who hangs from the ceiling and waits to attack you.
	Acheman	10	Flies, turns into man-bat-thing	A very annoying version of the Ache who will turn into a dragon once it reaches the ground and spit fireballs. Just slash at it or avoid it, as they are powerful.
	Bago Bago	3	Shoots rocks, steals exp	A stupid fish who lost its skin. Avoid them, as they steal exp if they touch you.
	Basilisk	50	Spits fire	A powerful lizard that guards the paths on Maze Island fights with fire. So let's play with Fire and use it on his arse.
	Bit	2	Jumps	Not exactly a bot, but pretty much the same thing in HP and strength.
	Blue Deeler	10	Drops down and jumps	Beware - unlike the normal Deeler, he will jump off his web and start jumping at you.
	Blue Goryia	30	Throws boomerang	I think the Goryia is sad that you killed off so many of his kind. Too bad this made his endurance a lot higher than any Goryia before him.
	Blue Lizalfos	200	Throws mace	A deadly new Lizalfos is going to put a hurt on you if you do not kill it in time. They are as strong as an Ironknuckle, and fight like one too.
	Blue Moblin	30	Throws spear	A stronger moblin, but that's not saying much, as he is easily killed by the downward thrust.
	Blue Myu	5	Thorns	A more annoying and faster version of the Myu. It only appears in the Great Palace, but it is still a weakling, falling to one downward thrust.
	Blue Octoroc	20	Shoots rocks	An annoying Octoroc who lurks in swamps in order to fight you. It will try to hide in the water, then jump out and shoot you. Beware, some might also walk and jump at the same time.
	Boon	50	Flies and drops rocks.	An annoying fly who drops rocks on your head. Use the upper thrust or a timed hit with the sword. Or run away.
	Boulder Lizalfos	50	Throws rocks at you.	Annoying Lizalfos who hide behind a fence high up and tosses rocks at you. You cannot kill them unless you use Thunder.
	Bot	2	Jumps	Common slimes that are found all over the world. They are weak, but can get tough at times.
	Daira	70	Attacks with axe	Powerful lizards who throw axes at you while chasing you down. They are tough and usually guard important roads in the game.
	Deeler	2	Drops down on line	A common spider who hangs from the trees and crawls down his line to attack you.
	Eye	20	Floats around	An annoying eye which looks like a Moa, but uses a different fight plan. He will move for a few seconds with his eye open, then stop and close his eye. You can only kill it when his eye opens, so get it when it's moving.
	Geldarm	5	Blocks path	A giant worm who attempts to block your path in the desert. They cannot fight back, but touching them hurts you. Just slash them until they shrink, then hit the pinchers to finish them off.
	Goryia	20	Throws boomerang	A strange wolf-like creature who throws boomerangs at you. Use the shield to block his boomerangs, then finish it off before he throws another.
	Leever	10	Comes from sand and attacks	A strange sand monster that appears in groups in desert regions. They are tough and tend to be rather fast. Using the downthrust makes them much easier.
	Lizalfos	150	Attacks with spear	Part lizard, part man, these strange monsters are powerful creatures who lurk in caverns throughout Hyrule. The orange breed uses spears to fight you, but will die with a few well-placed strikes.
	Lowder	3	Crawls at you	Strange snail creatures who crawl around in caves. They are a problem when you do not have a candle, but once you do, they are easily killed with a single sword slash.
	Megmet	5	Jumps around	A strange cat creature (I always thought it looked like a bird. - RPT) who hops around the field trying to kill you. They are rather weak, but still annoying due to how they bounce around the screen.
	Moa	10	Flies around	A floating eye. Annoying and very fast, either try to hop on it with downthrust or just avoid it alltogether.
	Moblin	0	Attacks with spear	A strange pig-man who lurks in the countryside of Hyrule. They tend to be weak, but avoid their spears nonetheless.. Unlike the kind who throw their spears, the regular kind gives no experience.
	Moby	2	Flies around, steals exp	A strange bird that appears in swamps in order to do one thing: steal your experience. Fight them if you must, but get out of the swamp ASAP.
	Myu	3	Thorns	A thorny creature who hops around on the ground. It is not much of a threat, but it does get annoying when blocking a ledge you want to jump over to. One downward thrust will end take care of it.
	Octoroc	10	Shoots rocks	An octopus creature who lives in swamps and caves, using his nose to shoot rocks at his prey. The octorocs are very annoying, as they tend to hang around in tiny pits or near the edge of a ledge, causing you much grief.
	Purple Bot	10	Jumping ability	It looks the same, but this new Bot is not the one you fought at the beginning in the game. It takes a lot more hits and gives more experience. It's still nothing but a joke.
	Purple Moa	30	Flies around and takes exp	The last Moa in the game is the most powerful and annoying. In order to get rid of his invisibility, you must find the Cross in the Three Eye Palace. If you do not have the Cross, good luck - they move fast and tend to show up in places with a lot of pits.
	Red Daira	100	Throws axe	A powerful version of the Daira who has taken up throwing his axes at you. He is very tough, so use Shield if forced to fight it.
	Red Goryia	20	Throws boomerang	A blood-red Goryia whose main difference from his weaker cousin is a bit more defense.
	Red Lizalfos	100	Attacks with mace	A powerful Lizalfos who trades in his spear for a mace to attack you.
	Red Moblin	20	Attacks with spear	As with other red monsters, he is strong, yet not nearly as tough as the blue version. Use the good old sword in the head move to end this creature.
	Scorpion	150	Shoots fireballs from tail	A powerful scorpion who shoots fire from his tail. The only way to kill this monster is to stab it in the eye when it opens up.
	Spear-throwing Moblin	10	Throws spear	Do not confuse this for the regular moblin, as this one throws his spear instead of keeping it in his hand. It also gives you experience instead of nothing, but other than that, it's not really anything different from a regular moblin.
	Tektile	50	Jumps around and shoots beams	A giant spider who lives in East Hyrule. Its tough skin turns away your sword, so use Fire to bring it down.

	Red Bago Bago	20	Fireballs, steals exp	A stronger version of the Bago Bago which uses fireballs instead of rocks, meaning they can't be blocked with the shield. They only appear in the Great Palace, so at least you will not encounter them much.
