'''Gohma''' (ゴーマ, ''Gōma'') is a recurring boss in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' series and is usually depicted as a large, one-eyed arthropod. It is one of the most used bosses in the series. :''See also'': [[Gohma Larva]] == ''The Legend of Zelda'' == {{Boss| name = Gohma |image = [[File:GohmaLOZ.png|220px]] |title = |game = ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' |dungeon = [[Dragon Labyrinth]] |weakness = Arrows }} [[File:GohmaLoZ.png|left]]Gohma makes her first appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]''. She is the boss of the [[Dragon Labyrinth]], and also appears in the [[Lion Labyrinth]]. Gohma is a huge crab living in the labyrinths. Her hard shell will repel all attacks, but her weakness is her large, single eye, which is vulnerable to Link's arrows.<ref> {{Cite manual| quote= The super-huge crab that lives in the labyrinths. Its hard shell will repulse any attack. Attack its weak point with a special weapon.| game= The Legend of Zelda (Game)| page= 38|}}</ref> Due to this weakness, Gohma frequently keeps her eye closed, and attacks by shooting beams from a distance. There are two varieties of Gohma in this game, red and blue. The red Gohma takes merely one arrow for victory while the blue one takes three. {{Clear}} == ''Link's Awakening'' == [[File:Gohma_LA.png|left]] In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', two Gohmas appear as the main mini-bosses of the fifth dungeon, [[Catfish's Maw]]. They would move back and forth sideways with their eyes constantly closed, and would occasionally try to ram into Link. Only the Gohma closest to Link would try to attack. They would also sometimes open their eyes to release a fireball, which also makes them vulnerable to the [[Hookshot]]. Additionally, Link could also use a [[bow]] and fire arrows into their eyes, which appears to deal more damage than the Hookshot. == ''Ocarina of Time'' == {{Boss| name = Queen Gohma |image = [[File:Gohma.png|200px|Official art for Gohma in ''Ocarina of Time'']] |title = Parasitic Armored Arachnid |game = ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' |dungeon = [[Inside the Deku Tree]] |weakness = Her eye when in red; Fairy Slingshot |reward = [[Heart Container]], [[Spiritual Stones#Kokiri Emerald|Kokiri Emerald]] |strategy = The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Ocarina_of_Time/Inside_the_Deku_Tree#Boss:_Gohma }} '''Parasitic Armored Arachnid: Queen Gohma''' (甲殻寄生獣ゴーマ, ''Shell Parasite Beast: Gōma'') debuts as the first boss enemy Link will encounter in his adventures in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. After the [[Great Deku Tree]] refused to place the Spiritual Stone of Forest into [[Ganon|Ganondorf's]] hands, the Gerudo warlock cursed the ancient tree with a monstrous, Tektite-like creature, Queen Gohma, titled as a ''Parasitic Armored Arachnid''. Ravaging the inner body of the Deku Tree, spreading her offspring, scattering her web, and leeching on the Tree's life, the Great Deku Tree had no choice but to request for Link's help with the aid of Navi the fairy. Queen Gohma was found on the deepest floor inside the Great Deku Tree, resting atop the ceiling. When Link confronted her, he discovered she had one weakness: her eye was vulnerable when it turned red. Even with her armor, her sheer bulk of strength and her [[Gohma Larva|Gohma Larva's]] intervention, Queen Gohma was defeated. The curse was broken, and Gohma was consumed in magic and reduced to ashes. Following her defeat, Link gains a [[Heart Container]]. Also, the [[Great Deku Tree]] gifts him the Spiritual Stone of Forest, the [[Spiritual Stones#Kokiri Emerald|Kokiri Emerald]], before passing away. [[File:Red Eyed Gohma.jpg|left|thumb|Queen Gohma before battle.]] In earlier versions of Ocarina of Time there was a [[Glitches in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time#Gohma Game Freeze|Gohma glitch]] that caused the game to freeze. {{noncanon}} It should be noted that in the [[manga]] version of ''Ocarina of Time'', Gohma can talk, and her true form was little more than a cockroach, apparently due to the cause of dark magic. {{clear}} == ''Oracle of Seasons'' == {{Boss| name = Gohma |image = [[File:gohmaoos.png]] |title = |game = ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'' |dungeon = [[Dancing Dragon Dungeon]] |weakness = Sword,<br>Slingshot |reward = [[Essences of Nature#Soothing Rain|Soothing Rain]] }} Gohma also makes an appearance inside the [[Dancing Dragon Dungeon]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]''. However this time around, the beast has an extra appendage, a very deadly claw. If Link runs in front of her, she will charge and grab him, then throw him to the ground causing damage. The claw can be removed by slashing with the sword. Also, to avoid the claw the [[Roc's Feather]] can be used to jump over it. Once the claw is destroyed, the [[Slingshot]] can be fired at its open eye, while avoiding the larvae it summons. Defeating Gohma yields the fourth [[Essences of Nature|Essence of Nature]], the [[Essences of Nature#Soothing Rain|Soothing Rain]]. {{Clear}} == ''The Wind Waker'' == {{Boss| name = Gohma |title = Magtail Queen |image = [[File:GohmaWW.png|200px|Gohma in ''The Wind Waker'']] |game = ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' |dungeon = [[Dragon Roost Cavern]]<br>[[Ganon's Castle]] |weakness = Its eye,<br>Grappling Hook |reward = [[Heart Container]], [[Goddess Pearls#Din's Pearl|Din's Pearl]] |strategy = The_Legend_of_Zelda:_The_Wind_Waker/Enemies_and_bosses#Dragon_Roost_Cavern:_Gohma }} In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', Gohma was placed by Ganondorf below the resting spot of the Spirit of the Sky, [[Valoo]], high on Dragon Roost Island's peak, without the Sky Spirit knowing about it. Doing so tormented Valoo and thus angered him enough so that he would become violent and unpredictable and cause trouble, confusion, and panic among the [[Rito]], the protectors of Din's Pearl. Link offers to help the Rito, and when he reaches the boss room inside Dragon Roost Cavern, he finds an impressive, lava-resistant, [[Magtail]]-like monster as his foe. Despite its menacing figure, Link manages to crack open Gohma's armor and delivers many lethal strikes to its eye with his sword, then finally kills her. For defeating Gohma, Link's prize is a [[Heart Container]], and an apology as well as [[Goddess Pearls#Din's Pearl|Din's Pearl]] from the Chieftain's son, [[Prince Komali]]. During the course of the game Gohma must be defeated twice, once in [[Dragon Roost Cavern]], and once in [[Ganon's Tower]] to complete the game. If Link manages to actually get a picture of Gohma and make it into a figurine, her armor is actually white with pale, purplish markings, meaning the lava is what gave the appearance of gold armor and brass markings. {{Clear}} == ''Four Swords Adventures'' == [[File:FSA_Gohma.png|left]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', Gohma appears in two variations. The first type is a large, one-eyed arachnid that aimlessly wanders about the fields of Hyrule. The second type also appears as a large, one-eyed arachnid, but it acts as mini-boss that shoots fireballs at Link. Both types of Gohma could be harmed only by shooting arrows at its open eye. {{clear}} == ''Twilight Princess'' == [[File:armogohma.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Twilit Arachnid Armogohma]] {{Main|Armogohma}} In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', a more spider-like incarnation of Gohma appears, called '''Twilit Arachnid: Armogohma''' (Her name is a [[Wikipedia:portmanteau|portmanteau]] of "Armos", as in [[Armos|Armos Statue]], and Gohma). Like all previous incarnations, its eye is the weak spot. Like some of its previous iterations, the dungeon in which Armogohma is featured includes many spiders and spider-like creatures as enemies; namely the slow moving four-legged [[Gohma Larva]]e and tiny, bloated [[Gohma Larva|Baby Gohma]]. Also similarly to its previous incarnations, Armogohma drops eggs whilst hanging from the ceiling at certain points during the boss battle. They quickly hatch into Baby Gohma, which Link must defeat before continuing with the main boss battle. {{Clear}} {{refbar}} {{de|{{PAGENAME}}}} [[Category:Enemies in The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures]]
