Spike


 * Not to be confused with Blade Trap or Spiked Mine.

Spikes are recurring enemies in.

Spikes are metallic balls that float around posing potential threats to Link from within the Water Temple in. In several rooms, these enemies are triggered to release by switch causing several of them to flow out of a cage at a slow speed, obstructing an entire passage or endangering a room. These spikes can be subdued with a flick of the Hookshot where they retract into a more dense rock-like object; another hit from the Hookshot is enough to destroy them. Although spikes are not the most dangerous of enemies in the Water Temple, they rank among the most aggravating.

Majora's Mask
Unnamed enemies with the same appearance as spikes serve as stationary explosive devices that activate on contact with either Link or another Spike. They can be seen suspended from chains in aquatic areas as mines or from ceilings as a swinging aerial hazard, mainly in Pirates' Fortress, Great Bay Temple, the Ancient Castle of Ikana and Stone Tower Temple.
