Eyesoar is the Boss of Skull Dungeon, the fourth Dungeon in Oracle of Ages.[2]

Characteristics

Eyesoar appears as a flying eyeball with four smaller eyes that orbit around it, similar to a Patra. As Eyesoar gradually chases Link around the room, its orbiting eyes will increase and decrease their radius to cover more ground. These smaller eyes can be defeated with several strikes from Link's Sword, but will quickly regenerate. To harm this Boss, Link must use the Switch Hook so that it penetrates its defenses and hits Eyesoar directly. This will dizzy the Boss and scatter the smaller eyes briefly, allowing Link to strike Eyesoar with his Sword before they return to formation. After taking enough damage, Eyesoar will be defeated, leaving behind a Heart Container and opening the door to the Burning Flame.

Nomenclature

Eyesoar shares its Japanese name with Patra, implying that they may be the same creature. Its name is a play on the word eyesore.
