Template:Enemy The Magtail is an enemy in The Wind Waker.
Characteristics and Weaknesses
Magtails slither around rooms waiting for Link to come close. Upon recognizing him, they stretch out their mandibles, trying to slice Link down. When charging its attack, its eye becomes vulnerable to attacks from the Sword or ranged items, such as the Grappling Hook.[1] Touching its mandibles when it attacks deals half a heart of damage. Touching any other part of a Magtail will also hurt Link. Once attacked, the Magtail curls into a ball that can be either destroyed by continuing attacks, or lifted. Once rolled, Link can carry the Magtail around and use it to press switches.[2] Water Pots can also be used to stun the Magtail. The same effect can be achieved by shooting it with an Ice Arrow. Link can also defeat a Magtail in one hit by using a Parry attack.
Trivia
- The Magtail bears quite the resemblance to Gohma, the boss of the Dragon Roost Cavern, although it is a much smaller version. The Magtail shares the large mandibles, hard exoskeleton, physical appearance, coloration, and single, vulnerable eye with the gargantuan boss.
- Magtail seems to be a fiery relative of the Moldorm enemies, which are known as "Tail" in Japan.
