Majora`s Mask

















When you are good and ready, and if you have all the guardian masks, make your way to the clock tower in Clock Town at 0:00 on the last day. Engage in battle with Stalkid, and play the song you learned when you beat the first of the guardians. After a small scene, the Mask of Majora will reject Stalkid and beam itself into the eye of the moon. Since the guardians cannot hold back the moon any longer, Link decides to follow. If you have all the normal masks at this point, you might beable to get the last special mask as well. Read on.

This world consists of a tree with several kids running around. Each one is wearing the mask of a guardian. I'm not too sure how it works, but you can give away your masks to the kids to be teleported to one of several small cave areas. If you go back in time, you will gain back whatever masks you gave away. I have seen a few of these areas so far but not all.

The first consists of several flower launchers, a few spinning on branches in the middle of a huge pit. If you work your way over to the corners, one has a heart container piece, and the other has a door that leads to the kid who brought you here. You can give him more masks to leave, but im not sure how this works either. It may or may not effect other events. (2 Masks Lost)

The second consists of high speed underwater tunnels where you are given choices of paths. At the end of the path, you will either get to a gossip stone, a door leading to the kid, or maybe a heart piece (which I have not found yet). If you get to the kid, yet don't want to be teleported out, just jump back into the water with Goron Link. You can always leave by the blue teleporter at the begining of the area. (4 Masks Lost)

The third area consists of many ramps for Goron Link to roll over. There is a trick to it. If you roll completly straight from the exact middle of the first runway, then let go of the analog stick just as you land from the jump, you will bounce off the chests, and automatically roll up the next ramp. You will keep bouncing and rolling automatically, but you will fall into a pit when you get to the 2 green pots containing more magic vials. Stop at this point, and try exploring by walking. I have found nothing here, but the kid with the mask. (6 Masks Lost)

Go to the last kid when you get out, and give him masks. You will be transported to the last little mini-dungeon. Find the kid and give him the last of your regular masks. You should be teleported out, and none of the kids will be there except the one against the tree. (8 Masks Lost, None Left)

When you are ready, talk to the kid resting against the huge tree who is wearing Majora's Mask. You will be transported to a huge room, where each of the guardian masks will fly from your hands to the wall. Then, the eyes of Majora's Mask will glow and pop out with a look of insanity. It would be a good idea to wear the Bunny Hood for the following fights, if you didn't give it away to one of the kids in the previous area. If you gave all your masks away, and had the max possible number, you should recieve the 4th special mask, which will allow you to turn into a sky blue adult Link. I have not tried this yet, as in my most recent save I don't have all the masks, but the word is out there that it works. As adult link, you have a new sword that can fire magic when it slashes.

Boss: Majora's Mask

You will need to hit the mask in the back, as it floats or spins about, then slash it again while it is stunned. In order to do this, you can either try your luck with arrows, or wait till it dives down to spin across the room and hit it with a spin attack when it gets close. I usually wait for it to do so, and charge up a spin attack, hoping it will come down right above my head to garentee a hit. Conserving arrows is a good idea, beacause you will only have whatever number you had when you entered, plus 1 set under a jar. After a few hits, the guardian masks will fly off the wall and attack too. They will shoot sparks down at you. They each take 2-3 hits to kill, the only way being arrows. Sometimes you can shoot one once and slash it before it can fly back up again for an easy kill. Try to keep your eye on the Mask of Majora at all times though, beacause it has a new laser attack at this point. While you are fighting off the guardian masks, just Z-target it and use your shield to block the laser. When all the other masks are gone, you can take the target off, and reflect the laser back to try and light it on fire. Patience is the key here, as it uses the laser attack alot and dives for a spin less. Be patient, and save the arrows you have left. A few more hits and it will burst into flames... and then mutate.

Boss: Majora's Mask

The next form will dance across the room in various ways. Z-target it and try to stay back. Never fire anything at it, or try to rush up and hit it. Wait for it to come to you before you slash. The easiest way to hit it is to wait for it to do the moonwalk type move and hit it beacause it is semi-defenseless and wont spin away until it is done moonwalking. It has an attack that it might do occasionally where it throws several sparks at you. Just try to Z-target it and leap around in circles when it does. When you score a hit, you can hit it a few times while it cries out in pain, and if you keep slashing and time it right, you will hit it again when it recovers and tries to spin away. With luck, you can hit it once and not give it the chance to attack again. After maybe 5-9 hits, it will change again.

Boss: The Magic Emperor of Majora

This form is difficult if you don't know what to do. It will spin away or jump away if you get too close, and whip at you with it's tentacles. At first, you can use Goron Link to spin around the room, then ram into it, But eventually it will move faster and whip at a longer range. NEVER Z-target it and try to close in for a slash; it will just whip you and jump away. The easiest way to end this battle is to try and save as many arrows as you can for this part. If you used 12 arrows to kill the guardian masks, you can have 18 + 30 arrows left over for this fight, to make things much easier. Hit it with an arrow when you find an opening, then run up and slash it around a few times. Magic potions are almost useless, so use all the bottles you have on either fairies or life potions. Don't give up too first, it is definatly a cool boss, but not very hard if you have the right stuff. When it is injured, it will dodge your arrows. Shoot once, then when it lands from it's jump, shoot again. When the spiked objects dart around the room, you know it's almost dead. Good luck!
