Template:Boss

Eox: Ancient Stone Soldier is a giant mechanical golem made of stone and wood. He is the seventh boss in Phantom Hourglass, and guards the Cobble's Aquanine.

Strategy

Eox defeated

Eox starts out as a giant golem that takes up both screens to see. The fight will play out in two stages. In the first part of the stage, Link must run around the arena dodging Eox's flurry of arrows and fists. Then he must head to one of four pedestals that spring Link into the air when he hits it with the Hammer. Link needs to use the Hammer to hit pegs that stick out of various places on Eox's body. Repeating this repeatedly will shatter the stone outer body and reveal the wood frame underneath. Once the entire wood frame is exposed, it is shown there are four buttons that light up where the previous pegs were. Link then must hit another spring to bounce into the air and hit all four buttons in one leap, collapsing Eox and begining the second phase of the battle.

In the second phase, Eox's head will hop around the room and shoot arrows out of its mouth in many different directions. Link must lure him closer to one of the springs so that when Link launches into the air he will may on top of Eox's head. On top of the head, he must strike the crystal ontop with his sword. For a more effective attack, Link may hit the crystal with the Hammer until the head knocks Link off. This process must be repeated until Eox is defeated and transforms into the Sand of Hours.

Trivia

  • Eox's stone armor strongly resembles the exterior of Mutoh's Temple and the other pyramids. This, along with the fact that he dwells outside of Mutoh's tomb, suggest that Eox may actually be an ancient Cobble Kingdom war machine that was corrupted by Bellum's evil.
  • Eox and Mazaal, the boss of the Fortress of Winds in The Minish Cap, are both named Template:Japanese in Japan.
