only takes three arrows to kill one of them (and you can also use the sword when you rin out of arrows). Next, they will form a wall and come hopping towards you, followed by more hopping in a circle. Just fire arrows at them with every oppurtunity you get. The last Armos Knight standing will get tough and turn red. He'll bounce at your current position, so never stay in one place for long. Keep shooting arrows at him and he's gone in just three hits.

Desert Palace -- LANMOLAS

The Lanmolas are large worm-like monsters that pop out of the ground and

go back inside. You can see where they will pop out because of the dark soil that appears. When a Lanmola pops out, stones fly out of that spot in 4 diagonal directions, so you should stay above, below, to the left, or to the right of it when it comes out. The only way to hurt them is by

hitting them in the head with the sword. I find it effective to charge up the sword, then to do a spin attack when you're close to the Lanmola's head. Remember to stay clear of the rocks that come flying out! It takes a while, and eventually the Lanmola will die. The last one

left is a little bit trickier...rocks fly out in all eight directions, so you'll need to be even more careful to avoid them.

Tower of Hera - MOLDORM

The Moldorm is a giant worm-like monster that moves around randomly. Since you are fighting on a platform like this one, you need to be careful not to fall off. If you do, you'll go down to the fifth floor and need to come back and start all over. Hit weak spot is the tail, so you should go for it with the sword. Try not to hit any other parts of his body, because you will bounce off and you might fall off the platform. After hitting him five times, he goes really crazy and moves around much faster than before. One more hit is all it takes to defeat him.

Hyrule Castle - AGAHNIM

Agahnim is the wizard that has been making the girls disappear. He attacks by throwing energy balls at you. After that, he warps to another

position and does it again. The master sword doesn't hurt him directly-

-

you need to hit the energy balls that come at you so that they bounce back to him! But be careful when he shoots a bunch of small blue balls at you, you just need to get out of their way. When Agahnim positions himself at the top-center of the screen, he's going to do a lightning attack so you better get out of his way! It takes around 6 or 7 hits to defeat him. (Note: Strangely, you can also use the bug catching net to deflect his attacks. Weird, eh?)
