The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Hints

How can I defeat Eox?

  • 1 of 13: This battle can be pretty difficult, considering the fact that you won't find any pots with hearts in at all in the boss' lair.
  • 2 of 13: The first phase of the boss battle involves Eox attempting to smash you with his fists.
  • 3 of 13: However, you will notice his fists cannot reach the edge of the platform, so stay around the edges to be safe.
  • 4 of 13: You will notice a set of around eight red targets over Eox's body -- these are his weak spots.
  • 5 of 13: You need to use the hammer to catapult on the platforms onto his body, and then hit the targets again with the hammer.
  • 6 of 13: This will be a difficult process and you need to hit them all to move onto phase two.
  • 7 of 13: The second phase removes the targets around his body, replacing them with four more located close together on his chest.
  • 8 of 13: You now need to launch yourself in the same way you were before, into his chest.
  • 9 of 13: While there, you can quickly attack the targets on his chest.
  • 10 of 13: Once THEY are all gone, his body will die off, leaving only his head as the final stage of the battle.
  • 11 of 13: You'll find a blue crystal on the back of his head -- this is his final weak spot.
  • 12 of 13: Launch yourself onto his head while avoiding the projectiles he fires at you, and bash away at the crystal, this time with your sword.
  • 13 of 13: A couple of repetitions of this process and Eox is done and dusted!
