When Link confronts her, he discovers she has one weakness: her eye is vulnerable when it turns red.<ref>{{Cite|Its eye is vulnerable when it's red!|Navi|OoT}}</ref> By shooting at her red eye with a [[Deku Seed]] via the [[Fairy Slingshot]], Gohma will be stunned, leaving her open to attack from Link's sword or [[Deku Stick]]s.<ref>{{Cite|In order to administer the coup de grace to Queen Gohma, strike with your sword while she's stunned. Oh, Queenie...|Deku Scrub|OoT}}</ref> After being hit at least once, Gohma will climb onto the room's ceiling and, if she is not stunned with a Deku Seed in time, she will attempt to hatch three Gohma Larva to aid her in battle. However, there is a strategy to defeat Gohma faster that only requires one [[Deku Stick]]. Once Gohma is stunned, Link must jump strike with the Deku Stick and then do multiple shield stabs (done by attacking with the sword while holding R but not [[Z-Targeting]]). Another strategy is to repeatedly land a hit at the very last frame before Gohma gets back up until she is defeated, though this requires perfect timing. It is possible to kill Gohma on the first [[Critical Point]] both ways. The amount of time Queen Gohma remains stunned for varies according to the technique administered: two seconds for using a [[Deku Nut]], five if Link fires a Deku Seed with his slingshot while her eye is red, and around eight if she is shot whilst hanging from the ceiling.

After Link strikes Gohma's eye enough times, she will be defeated, causing the curse on the Deku Tree to break. As a reward, Link receives a [[Heart Container]] and the [[Kokiri]]'s Emerald from the Great Deku Tree before he passes away.<ref>{{Cite|You got the Kokiri's Emerald!
