==Characteristics | ==Characteristics== | ||
{{Plural|ST|Rocktite}} are {{Term|ST|Gohma|link}}-like monsters that dwell deep within caves. These creatures lay dormant atop the ceilings of caves, waiting for trains to pass by to attack. When awakened, {{Plural|ST|Rocktite}} chase and attempt to tackle the intruders. To protect the {{Term|ST|Spirit Train|link}}, {{Term|ST|Link|link}} must use his {{Term|ST|Cannon|link}} to fire {{Plural|ST|Bomb|link}} at the monster's eye in order to slow it down and eventually defeat it. If {{Term|ST|Link}} is not fast enough, the monster will lunge at the train and crush it. After 30 hits to the eye, it will be defeated. | |||

Its behavior is similar to the first encountered {{Term|ST|Rocktite}}, but it sometimes keeps its eye shut, leaving its only vulnerable point protected. {{Term|ST|Link}} must fire at {{Plural|ST|Bomb Barrel|link}} embedded into the cave walls in order to harm the creature and open its eye. | ||

Fighting this one is optional and it is only purpose is to stop {{Term|ST|Link}} from delivering {{Plural|ST|Dark Ore|link}} to {{Term|ST|Linebeck III|link}}. The {{Term|ST|Rocktite}} is fought similar to the one in the {{Term|ST|Sand Realm}}, but will also send out {{Plural|ST|Tektite|link}} when it flees into the shadows of the cave and requires 40 hits instead of 30 for it to be defeated. If {{Term|ST|Link}} takes too long to defeat it, the battle will automatically end, not giving the hero enough time to get five {{Plural|ST|Dark Ore}} to {{Term|ST|Linebeck III}}. | ||
