The '''Moldorm''' is a boss that first appeared in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. It is a much larger version of the common [[Moldorm]] (also known as [[Moldorm|Mini-Moldorm]]s).

===''A Link Between Worlds''===
The boss Moldorm returns as the boss of the Tower of Hera, but guards this time the Pendant of Power rather than the Pendant of Wisdom. The strategy to defeat it remains the same, but the boss is easier due to the fact that even if Link falls off the arena, the boss doesn't regain health.
A stronger purple version of Moldorm appears as a mini-boss in a section of [[Lorule Castle]]. The arena is closed this time, so Link has no risk of falling off, but the walls periodically close in, giving Link less room to maneuver. The fight's difficulty can be alleviated if Link has the Red Mail to reduce damage taken, and/or upgraded the Master Sword to its strongest level, at which point only five normal hits are needed to kill the boss.
Both forms of Moldorm are fought in the [[Treacherous Tower]]. The weaker version is fought as the final enemy in Beginner mode, while the stronger version is the final enemy fought in Advanced mode. They are fought in the same manner as in their storyline fights, but Link must remain careful, as there is no way to regenerate health in the arena itself, and the stronger version can this time push him out of the boundaries in the arena, causing extra damage.
