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
Terrifying clusters of five disembodied hands that crawl from pools of Gloom, found as random overworld spawns, beneath Hyrule Castle, and throughout the Depths. They relentlessly pursue Link and drain maximum hearts on contact. Stay elevated on rocks, trees, or structures and rain arrows down from safety. Fire arrows and bomb arrows are the most effective ranged counters. After defeating all five hands, Phantom Ganon frequently spawns as a follow-up boss encounter.
Weakness
Fire, bomb arrows, elevated positions
