Ursore is the sixth boss in Zelda's Adventure.[1] He is the Shrine Keeper of the Shrine of Strength.[2]
Ursore is a bear who values strength above all else and values himself as a strong warrior.[3] His servants are the Shrine's three Knights, and he becomes angry when Zelda manages to overcome them in battle.[4][5]
Characteristics
Ursore's only means of attack is to move around the room and pounce at his enemy, which will inflict two full Hearts-worth of damage. Unlike previous bosses, he is significantly slower and it is easier to dodge his attacks.
Trivia
- Ursore is the only Shrine Keeper who is not fought again at the Vision Henge when Ganon summons the Shrine Keepers to fight Zelda.
- Sir Basil claims that the Broadsword works well against Ursore.[1] In reality, it is rather ineffective.
Nomenclature
Ursore is a portmanteau of Ursa, Latin for bear, and sore.
