An '''Iron Mask''' is an enemy that somewhat resembles a [[Helmasaur]]. It wears a mask of iron to protect its vulnerable body, and can easily overtake a would-be hero if encountered in large numbers. Like the Helmasaur, its backside is unprotected by its mask, so a weapon like a [[sword]] hitting its backside will result in quick death.

*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', the Hookshot could be used to pull the mask off of the creature, rendering it incredibly easy to kill without its main defense.

*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', magnetic disruptions from the [[Magnetic Gloves]] could also rip the mask off the creature.


==Strategy==
==={{OoS|-}}===
The '''Iron Mask''' is a relatively easy enemy for Link to defeat. Link can either attack it from its back, or rip its mask off with the Switch Hook. This latter method will often result in some damage, however, due to Link switching positions with the mask. Without its mask, Link can attack the Iron Mask from any direction.
