Wizzroboe
Wizzroboe is a boss in Cadence of Hyrule.[1] It's the boss of the Frozen Grotto and it drops an Oboe upon defeat.
Characteristics
Wizzroboe looks like a Wizzrobe seen in A Link to the Past, with a purple dress and a black body. In addition to its large yellow eyes, it has an oboe instead of a mouth and uses it when it attacks. It has an alternative shape with red eyes and a darker coat.
Upon arrival in the arena, Octavo appears and warns the played character (which depends on the player's choice), before teleporting away, unless the played character is Octavo. Eight Wizzrobes then appear while Octavo plays his lute and bewitch the oboe present at the back of the arena, transforming it into a Wizzroboe.
When fighting him, he can perform different attacks. He can drop icicles on the character in a circle or by following the character's trajectory, which will then leave ice on the ground. He can summon a myriad of Wizzrobes on the sides of the arena, who will send ice projectiles towards the character before disappearing. It can also make flakes appear that will move towards the character, leaving ice on the ground. After each attack, he teleports, forcing the player to attack him as quickly as possible.
After losing part of his life, he makes a new attack, which consists of quickly teleporting close to the character and attacking where he is, then teleporting again. It uses the same attacks as in the first phase. When he is defeated, all the Wizzrobes invoked disappear and an oboe, as well as a Heart Container, appear.
Nomenclature
Wizzroboe's name is a portmanteau of Wizzrobe and oboe.
Trivia
- Every time Wizzroboe attacks or teleports, he plays his oboe.
- Like Gleeokenspiel, the Bass Guitarmos Knights and Gohmaracas, the number of Wizzroboe hearts depends on the number of instruments owned.
- If the player have more than 2 instruments or is in Permadeath Mode, he will use the alternative sprite.
- In Permadeath Mode, two coffins are present in the back of the arena.
- Defeating Wizzroboe with only the Fire Rod is awarded with the achievement “Hot Beats.”
