Arrghus, known by its Japanese name '''Wart''', is a huge eye mini-boss that rolls around trying to hit its enemies in the [[Great Bay Temple]] and the [[Secret Shrine]] in {{MM}}. It attacks and is defeated like its previous incarnations. At the start of the battle, Wart is hovering slightly above the ground, completely surrounded by a mass of bubbles, rendering it immune to any damage. It is a time-consuming enemy. The sheer amount of bubbles on it make it a long struggle to pierce its shield, as it is constantly moving, along with Wart, which will differentiate from retreating to trying to press itself against Link in an attempt to cause damage. The bow is not a good idea at this point, as there are simply too many bubbles. Any offensive weapon is capable of removing the bubbles, although the best is the bomb, which knocks many bubbles off at once. Using the Hookshot is another way of removing the bubbles, although it is a time-consuming way. Another great way is to use deku nuts, which not only destroy many bubbles in one shot, but also damage the Wart too. The bubbles are incapable of being destroyed while on Wart, only knocked off, which makes them even more of a pain. When an opening is finally made, and Wart's eye is no longer blocked by bubbles, the bow is the way to go. However, any projectile will work. After enough shots, Wart will enter stage two, forcing its surviving bubbles off its body and begin rolling around wildly. First finishing off any bubbles, then attack Wart with the bow. After a few more shots, Wart will be finished. | Arrghus, known by its Japanese name '''Wart''', is a huge eye mini-boss that rolls around trying to hit its enemies in the [[Great Bay Temple]] and the [[Secret Shrine]] in {{MM}}.

Arrghus makes another appearance in {{ALBW}}. He is very similar to the {{ALttP}} incarnation, and the strategy to defeat him is quite similar. After using the Hookshot to dispatch of the Arrgi, Link must use his sword to hit him in the eye. He must also be cautious however, as Arrghus will fire needle thin beams of energy into the water on the boss room floor, causing large volumes of water to explode in a upwards motion. Upon his defeat, he drops a Heart Container and the painting of Sage [[Oren]] is unlocked. | |||
