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
Advanced Gloom Hands are a stronger variant appearing in high-difficulty Depths areas. Unlike standard Gloom Hands which can sometimes be avoided, Advanced variants will relentlessly pursue Link. They always follow with a Phantom Ganon summoning, making them effectively a two-phase boss encounter.
Weakness
Fire — Advanced Gloom Hands take bonus damage from fire element
How to Beat Gloom Hands (Advanced)
Approach identically to standard Gloom Hands: Bomb Arrows or Sacred-element weapons. Have 30+ Bomb Arrows prepared — the increased HP depletes your supply faster. Running away is significantly harder due to their speed boost.
