The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Fire Temple: Difference between revisions

After the short scene with Volvagia flying around, he'll drop down through one of the pits in the ground. You'll then see a small burst of fire from one of the holes - this indicates which pit he's going to emerge from (for now). After the fire burst, he will stick his head out of the ground - this is the time to strike. Run up and hit him with the Megaton Hammer - this will stun him and allow you to strike him with your sword. If you jump attack with the Megaton Hammer while he is stunned it will do more damage than a jump attack with master sword. A jump attack Biggoron's sword does the same amount of damage as a jump attack with the Megaton Hammer.  However, if you don't time it right and fail to stun him, he will blast you with fire breath or take a swing at you while you're still recovering from the hammer swing, so watch out. After he is damaged he will sink back in his hole. You'll again see another small burst of flame from one of the pits, but ignore it - you won't be able to hit him because this time he's going to come out, fly around and shoot fire at you. To avoid taking damage, simply walk slowly off the edge of the platform and hang there while he floats around. He'll then sink back into a pit and the process repeats itself. Look for the fire burst, stun with hammer, hit with sword, he goes back to ground. However, the next time he comes up to fly around he will drop boulders from the ceiling, so you will definitely want to hang off the side at this time to avoid any mishaps.
