As a kid, like 8 years old, I saw a video of this boss and thought "it looks cool, I want to see it" and I tried to get in some non-existent secret area of the Temple of Time to get to fight Armogohma. I was playing Ocarina of Time.
Boss Review: Twilit arachnid, Armogohma Location: Temple of Time Armogohma is the sixth boss in Twilight Princess. It resides in the deepest and darkest portion of the Temple of Time. It just doesn't mean Zelda without a giant spider most of the time. Design: Armogohma is a typical "giant spider in fantasy" in the form of a boss. It has Gohma (a boss commonly found in multiple Zelda games) but has Armo- in the front. Sticking with the dark theme of Twilight Princess, Armogohma has little to no color in its design save for its giant eye. Fight: Armogohma is found deep in the Temple in a very dark room with minimal light. There's even Dominion Rod statues. Link examines one when the light goes out. There's a giant spider on the ceiling! Link has to wait until Armogohma stops moving and opens its eye. There he has to shoot it with his Hero Bow. He can't take too long though as Armogohma will fire a fiery beam if left alone for too long. Once shot, it'll fall to the ground conveniently in front of a statue. With the use of the Dominion Rod, SLAM! A stony fist right onto the arachnid. It'll get back up though and crawl back on the ceiling and send Baby Gohmas to do away with you. Fight back with your sword or clear them out quicker with the Spinner. Shoot and slam once the babies are dead and repeat. Third time's the charm as the third slam will kill off the spider... NOT!! After Link sheaths the sword, it's shown that Armogohma is still alive as the eye. It tries to run way with babies protecting it. So many options to finish it: sword, arrows, bomb arrows, Ball and Chain, Spinner, you choose. It'll still die no matter what you do being reduced to a Heart Container and the second Mirror Shard. Conclusion: This is basically a scarier Gohma with an additional prefix. Still fun though. And more than just attacking the eye. It even punishes you if you're too slow. No other Gohma does that. The surprise at the end is adorable. Armogohma gets... *8.5/10*
They truly captured what makes a spider to unnerving to look at with this boss (one of the only 3 I enjoyed battling against in this game). A fun battle.
I think this honestly would have been a good first dungeon and boss because of how straightforward it all is. Being this late in the game, you kind of expect something more challenging, especially just after a harder to navigate dungeon like Snowpeak Ruins. Don't get me wrong, I like this dungeon. And maybe it wouldn't have fit with the story, especially since you wouldn't have most items yet, and it would've felt weird not doing the Forest Temple first. But still, I think it would have been an acceptable first dungeon in terms of difficulty.
Honestly in my opinion I feel like this should have been the boss of the forest temple it just seems more fitting to have a giant spider boss in the forest area than the temple of time.
I’m sort of wondering, is the eye an actual working eye or merely a design on her abdomen? Kind of like how some prey have markings making them seem far more intimidating than they really are?
Working eye, I mean we see her literally use it to detect link so... and if it wasn't working she probably wouldn't be rolling it around nearly as much as she does.
@@frederickdietz3148 Eh? The larger body has smaller eyes as well, (as does the smaller body,) I'm sure it's just a design. She would be able to see link with or without the larger "eye."
I feel kinda the same for those who have arachnophobia. This spider didn’t scare me, but Twinmold from “Majora’s Mask 3D” is my worst nightmare. I don’t know what kind of fear it would be called though.
Imagine having to step on this? Your gunna need to the big boot for this one. This spider gives spontaneous birth, it has a laser beam, and it’s huge. And it has to die at least twice. Impressive.
Armogohma is really stupid, when its right in front of the statue, it stops and opens its eyes! It would have been harder and more interesting if its eye was always open, and you had to time your shot at just the right moment to land it in front of the statue.
Armogohma needed the sunlight in order to fire his laser (pun not intended). That’s why it stays still: it needs to channel the light, and the eye on its back is to help it aim. The fact that the light sources are set up in front of the statues is on the builders, not the inhabitants.
Of all the boss fights in the game this one made me ask the most questions. For starters, who is Armagohma? That may seem like an odd question, but if she is the same spider queen, gohma from the very first game reincarnated or otherwise that means she's important, really only important people in Hyrule like Gannon, link, or Zelda reincarnate like so, is she sentient? If she's sentient did she make her own exoskeleton? Where did the exoskeleton come from and why is she there? Is the eye on her back functional? Where are the rest of her species? We really only see this particular individual spider "Armagohma" that looks like that in the game(s) and there must be at least one male to her species as we literally witness her birth children in front of us so those eggs were fertilized y'know. Where's her boyfriend?
My speculation is that Armogohma was some kind of specimen within the Gohma family tree that was transformed by the fused shadow. I’m assuming it’s a Gohma because it has the consistent trait that all Gohma’s have, being some kind of arachnid with a singular giant eye ntm the word Gohma is literally in its name.
3:02 - Link's sudden change of expression always gets me. I'm glad they were able to make Link so expressive even with the dark, edgier look of the game.
Cómo me encantó esta batalla contra jefe únicamente por la música. Es de mis temas de jefe favoritos. Una lastima que Armogohma fuese tan fácil, tenía un gran diseño y una épica música. Ojalá hubiera tenido un Round 2 donde ya sin armadura sea más agresiva y se dedique a embestir a link y a lanzarle telarañas para inmovilizarlo.
Imagínate que en un Round 2 esa araña gigante te estuviera persiguiendo, como algo parecido que se mostro en uno de los primeros trailers del juego (GDC del 2005)
Twilight Princess sorta suffers from bosses being a little too easy. This is the 6th dungeon boss and it takes little effort to kill her. You really have to try to actually die to this boss.
Exactly what I don't miss about the old zelda games like twilight princess and such I hardly ever died. I'm liking tears of the kingdom ALOT because it is actually tough. Some enemies are easy but Ganondorf is THE MOST MENACING Ganondorf I've ever battled in any zelda. Such a tough battle.
That whole second phase has got to be one of the weirdest Zelda moments for me. The look of the damn thing, and that weird ass music in the background make me feel like I'm in a fever dream. but the weirdest part for me is that fuckin face link makes, It throws me off every time. Every time I watch that cutscene before the second phase, I can't help but feel like I'm watching some weird ass ytp thing from 2006.
One of the things that TP does so well is playing with the Zelda conventions. Here, the boss is not over EVEN aftet the music. Call it how you want it but I call that genius and so funny as well
I like how the description refers to gohma as a he but in every interpretation of a gohma in the zelda series is referred to as a she. You know like queen gohma.
Man, I love spiders. I get excited when I see one in the game, but Zelda games are a new level of difficulty. I hope to get one for my switch and learn them better.

As arachnophobic, I couldn't fight this boss without closing my eyes
I can't watch this
Same!
It's hard to play this temple for me, but I think Skyrim is worse
You killed a boss with your eyes closed?

I feel like this dungeon was a bit too hard at times for a first dungeon
@kp6903 plus having the rod that early in the game would be too op.
I think they should have made the smaller version of it more difficult
I SPENT SO MUCH TIME TRYING TO CRUSH IT WITH THE STATUES IN THE SECOND PHASE OH MY GOOOOD.
I'm an idiot.
It's so funny if you crush it in the second phase though, it becomes flat like a pancake.
Haha meanwhile I was running after it like sonic trying to hit it with my sword
You know, for a second I was wondering who the hell Phillip was.
So this is the source of Tarantula wizard battle theme
ah, i see you're a man of culture as well
Too bad we don't get to hear the whole thing here

This game had the best bosses

Skyward, Botw or ocarina if we’re talking difficulty.

I feel kinda the same for those who have arachnophobia. This spider didn’t scare me, but Twinmold from “Majora’s Mask 3D” is my worst nightmare. I don’t know what kind of fear it would be called though.
Probably either scoleciphobia or scolopendrphobia.
I was terrified of this boss when was little.
And here comes my arachnophobia...😨
Probably my favorite boss in TP. Nice little plot twist with the eye being a spider as well.
Is Armogohma the 17th colossus
Johnny Vavala I remember that whole bs myth.

Just to what link did to kill her
For 3:14, I found you can end that part of the fight INSTANTLY with just one bomb arrow. XD
Overkill but cathartic I feel
So *that's* where the Tarantula Wizard Boss Battle song came from...
Gohma : Wait, it's not finished !
Link : *Hold my bow*

when i first fought gohma here in this game, i legit fell off my bed laughing at there unexpect second form XD
No eye spiders where really harmed in the making of this video

Does it even fit in youre room?
I like how the description refers to gohma as a he but in every interpretation of a gohma in the zelda series is referred to as a she. You know like queen gohma.
Armogohma would have made a cool enemy in shadow of the colossus.
Average Austrailian spider:
How come everything in this game has eye balls?
You know, I always wondered if you left that “second phase” alone long enough, if it would get its big body back somehow.
One of the most scariest temple of all time
What would happen if link placed himself under those statues and made them swing at himself?
I... now understand the origin of my arachnophobia.
Thank you. I have arachnophobia so I screamed like a lil 304😭
