Phases & Strategy:

  1. Phase 1 (Flying & Whirlwinds): Cyclok is a large, cycloptic creature that flies around the arena, creating whirlwinds that can damage Link. Your objective is to bring him down. When Cyclok flies low, throw a bomb into one of his whirlwinds. The whirlwind will carry the bomb up to Cyclok, causing it to explode near him.
  2. Phase 2 (Stunned & Vulnerable): If the bomb hits Cyclok, he will be stunned and fall to the ground, exposing his large eye. Quickly rush in and attack his eye with your sword.

Repeat these phases until Cyclok is defeated. As he takes damage, he will become faster, create more whirlwinds, and his whirlwinds may move more erratically, making it harder to land a bomb. Time your bomb throws carefully to ensure they are caught by a whirlwind. After his defeat, collect the Heart Container and the Pure Metal.
