Talk:Eox

Any relation to Onox? The name and appearance are slightly similar.--Claire 18:10, 2 February 2008 (EST)


 * That's interesting, but highly theoretical. I suppose it may be worth mentioning the broad physical similarity (carefully worded) in the Trivia section? --Adam (talk) 04:55, 3 February 2008 (EST)


 * Thanks. --Stalkid 19:01, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

One of the largest bosses? I'm fine with that, but the other bosses on that list... Wasn't Gohma in WW as big as Molgera?--Olle93 20:14, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Mazaal
If this has the same Japanese name, shouldn't they be merged? They're essentially different versions of the same thing, a warmech construct in ancient ruins.KrytenKoro (talk) 21:32, 16 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Not really, though. One- Mazaal- has a Bongo Bongo-esque design, is fought by shooting his hands and going inside him to directly atrack his core, and was used by the Wind Tribe. The other- Eox- is a humanoid statue with a complete trunk and full arms and legs, is fought by crumbling his body and hitting his pressure points, and was used by the Cobble and, somewhat, by Bellum. They're literally worlds apart, and the only things they share are Japanese names, the fact that they're machines, and, technically, the fact that they're both ultimately defeated by destroying their "cores". These similarities are definitely worth mentioning, but a merge seems hasty in light of their many differences. Setras (talk) 04:02, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
 * That's relatively nothing in terms of recurring creatures. Look at Gohma (even excluding the TWW version), Gyorg, or the Octoroks in SS vs. any other game. As for Mazaal being "Bongo Bongo-esque" -- again, not really. He's much closer to Gohdan, and the only thing that makes either of them similar to Bongo Bongo is that they have detached hands that you shoot arrows at. Given that both versions of Oisu are constructs, it's fair to have structural differences -- and we have the same difference in origin with the Armos, of which these warmachine bosses are usually depicted as the granddaddy, aesthetically.KrytenKoro (talk) 14:20, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
 * They are significantly different from each other. If they shared the same English name, maybe a merge would be appropriate. They are very different. Honestly merging them feels a lot like (though maybe not quite as extreme) as merging Ganondorf and Demise; both are humanoid beings of immense power and evil, and they are both called Demon Kings, and they look quite similar. Might as well merge all of the Fados too as they are all humanoids with the same name while we're at it too. Seriously, as both of these articles stand on their own, I do not see any need to merge the two. Champion of Nayru (talk) 19:06, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
 * In that case, we need a standardized way of dealing with stuff like this, something more professional than a trivia note that just...makes it sound like we're disorganized. How about something in the infobox or a disambig note along the lines of "other variations"? Digimon Wiki uses something like this for its infoboxes, see Devimon.KrytenKoro (talk) 19:33, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
