Aquamentus

Aquamentus (アクオメンタス, Akuomentasu) is the first boss in the and, appearing in labyrinth-like regions. Though its size may be intimidating, the strategy required to defeat it is virtually nonexistant: with its head as its prime weak spot, Link must only strike it upon the head to vanquish it in both incarnations.

Strategy
If Link rushes into the first labyrinth unprepared, this dragon can be a little challenging. If rupees are saved up for a shield first, then this enemy can be defeated easily. Aquamentus will periodically shoot three fireballs simultaneously at Link, each of which can dish out plenty of damage, but none will even so much as graze the hero if he blocks them with a Magical Shield. Even without the expensive shield, the fireballs can be dodged easily if Link isn't too close.

Method of Attack
Aside from its projectiles, the only method this beast has of harming the hero is bumping into him. Considering how slowly the bulky dragon moves, his tackles aren't very threatening. Link can damage Aquamentus by hitting its horn with Arrows, his Sword, or well-placed Bombs. Considering Bombs can inflict much more damage than Link's Wooden Sword, these explosives can come in handy during the first fight against this dragon. By defeating Aquamentus in either labyrinth, Link will earn a Heart Container and a shard of the Triforce of Wisdom.

Oracle of Seasons
Aquamentus is the boss of the first labyrinth once again, this time the dungeon is known as Gnarled Root Dungeon. Unlike in his first appearance, Link doesn't have a chance to "buff up" much before fighting this monster. Since Link can move faster and has access to the Spin Attack in Oracle of Seasons however, the fight is much easier. Aquamentus itself seems less able to sustain damage now than it once was. Regardless, the basic method of defeating him is the same: hit his head with a sword. Upon the dragon's defeat, Link receives a Heart Container and the first Essence of Nature, Fertile Soil.
