Guarding the Green Sword, a more powerful version of the original [[Arrghus]] in the game, a large and rather grotesque jellyfish surrounded by smaller jellyfish. Use the [[Hookshot]] to pick the small jellyfish off, and then while Arrghus is bouncing round the room, attack him. He takes 9 hits from the Level 4 [[Swords of A Link to the Past#Golden Sword|Golden Sword]] to down.

Again, a more powerful version of the boss guarding the [[Palace of Darkness]]. By using [[Bomb]]s/the [[Hammer#Magic Hammer|Magic Hammer]] to remove his mask, you can then hack away at him with your sword. Again, 9 hits from the [[Swords of A Link to the Past#Golden Sword|Golden Sword]], and then he will grow another mask. This time, remove the second mask, and then shoot a single [[Silver Arrow]] into the eye revealed on the [[Helmasaur King]] II; don't bother with the sword, it won't work.

[[Mothula]] II will split itself into 3 different Mothulas upon arriving, which will all attack and fire bees at you. A fake Mothula II can be easily destroyed in a couple of hits, but the original will then create more. There is no real strategy; just try to find the original Mothula II, and hack at him. 8-10 hits from the Level 4 [[Swords of A Link to the Past#Golden Sword|Golden Sword]] should deal with him.

Another improved version, this time of [[Blind the Thief]]. Get him in the head 3 times with your sword (while avoiding the highly dangerous laser attack he utilities), and Blind's head will detach. Now, attack the head and it will bounce around the room; try and make it bounce back on to Blind's body, and it will rejoin him. Repeat the first step, and two heads will detach. Bounce them both back to the body, and then repeat the first step again. Three heads will now detach; the end is near. Bounce all three back at Blind, and he will finally die.

===The Four Links===
===The Four Links===
[[File:DarkLinks PotFS.gif]]
[[File:DarkLinks PotFS.gif|left]]
Four doppelganger [[Links]]; arguably more difficult than all the first four bosses combined. They will attack one at a time, allowing for a less frantic battle. The first Link is rather easy, and can be disposed of in 8 hits; make sure to avoid the attacks, which should be easy. The second Link is nearly identical, except he can use the Whirlwind Spin attack. As long as you time your movements correctly, still not much trouble. Another eight hits, and he's down. The third is slightly more powerful; he'll use a dangerous dive attack that is difficult to detect and then dodge, and hits for a lot of damage. 8 more hits leave the final Link, and the Final Battle. This one employs the attacking strategies of all three previous Links, plus an even more dangerous and quick lunge attack; plus, it takes 16 hits to beat him!
