{{Term/Store|Octogon||Series, OoA}} is the {{Term|OoA|Boss}} of {{Term|OoA|Mermaid's Cave|link}}, the sixth {{Term|OoA|Dungeon}} in {{OoA}}.<ref>{{Cite Guide|quote= |game= OoA|publisher= Nintendo|page= 100}}</ref> | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
{{Term|OoA|Octogon}} is a variant of an {{Term|OoA|Octorok|link}} battled in a water-filled room with a narrow strip of land in the center, on which there are two {{Plural|OoA|Jar|link}} that drop {{Plural|OoA|Scent Seed|link}} when broken. {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} circles the room while facing away from {{Term|OoA|Link|link}}, using its large shell as a shield against {{Term|OoA|Link}}'s attacks. When {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} turns around to spit a rock, {{Term|OoA|Link}} can use his {{Term|OoA|Sword|link}} or {{Term|OoA|Seed Shooter|link}} to strike the {{Term|OoA|Boss}} in the face. The {{Term|OoA|Seed Shooter}} can also be used to bounce {{Plural|OoA|Mystical Seed|link|display=Seeds}} off the walls and damage {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} while it faces away from {{Term|OoA|Link}}. | |||
After being hit several times, {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} will partially submerge in the water while still circling the room, forcing {{Term|OoA|Link}} to follow it underwater with the aid of the {{Term|OoA|Mermaid Suit|link}}. If {{Term|OoA|Link}} remains above water while {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} is submerged, or vice versa, {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} will begin to shoot fireballs from its blowhole, which rain back down and split into multiple fireballs. | |||
When both {{Term|OoA|Link}} and the {{Term|OoA|Boss}} are underwater, it will begin to attack by chasing and ramming into {{Term|OoA|Link}}. Periodically it will spit an air bubble which entraps {{Term|OoA|Link}} for several seconds if hit by it. {{Term|OoA|Link}} can damage {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} with the {{Term|OoA|Seed Shooter}} as he attempts to swim away from it. After several more hits, {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} returns to the water's surface to repeat its plan of attack. Once {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} is defeated, a {{Term|OoA|Heart Container|link}} appears and the door to the {{Term|OoA|Lonely Peak|link}} is opened. | |||
== | ==Trivia== | ||
* [[ | *Through the use of a [[Glitches in Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons|glitch]], {{Term|OoA|Link}} can damage {{Term|OoA|Octogon}} with his {{Term|OoA|Sword}} while the {{Term|OoA|Boss}} is submerged. | ||
