Luminous Stone Talus

Maren's Tip

Every enemy type has a weakness. Fire enemies melt with ice, ice enemies with fire. Gibdos are vulnerable to fire and lightning — stock those arrows!

Description

A Stone Talus whose ore deposit is composed entirely of Luminous Stone — a premium gem that glows in the dark and sells for excellent rupee value. Found in dark cave regions and Lanayru nighttime zones where its luminescent body creates an eerie glow visible from considerable distance. Combat mechanics are identical to standard Stone Talus but the Luminous Stone deposit glows brightly, making weak-point identification trivial. Drops five or more Luminous Stones per kill.

Weakness

Luminous ore deposit on back — climb and strike with hammer-fused weapons for bonus

How to Beat Luminous Stone Talus

Fights identically to a Stone Talus — climb onto its body and strike the glowing Luminous Stone deposit with heavy or hammer-type fused weapons. Its bioluminescent glow makes it easy to spot in dark caves from considerable distance. Luminous Stone drops in quantity make every fight profitable. Bomb arrows to the deposit deal significant ranged damage.
