Unless you’ve powered through the game, it’s more than likely you need to figure out how to beat Marbled Gohma in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. If you don’t, the Gorons are going to suffer… Hyrule will suffer… Everyone suffers! 

Before I send you all into a depressive episode over Link’s chances of survival, I’m going to show you just how easy it is to take down the Fire Temple boss. 

Although a lot of other guides are saying this is one of the more challenging fights, I found it pretty straightforward. 

If you’re ready to complete another main quest, and find out what’s actually happened to Zelda, it’s time to dive into the Fire Temple depths!

Beating Marbled Gohma involves using Yunobo’s cannon ability to take out two of its legs. Once Marbled Gohma is stunned, attack its eye.

The first stage of the battle is easy because this boss stays on the ground. But in stage two, Marbled Gohma will move onto the ceiling.

Fortunately, Yunobo can reach its legs thanks to his cannon technique. Just aim and fire; Yunobo will travel up the ceiling and take out the rocky limbs no problem. Getting the timing just right can be tricky, but Yunobo’s ability powers up quickly.

Watch out for Marbled Gohma’s exploding boulders, which surround Link during phase two. Use Yunobo to break and escape them, or use Link’s Recall to move rocks out of the way. Be warned: if they explode, they could kill Link in one hit. 

Before I leave you to apply what you’ve learnt, please, for the love of everything Zelda, don’t use Bomb Flowers! The heat from this region will cause them to explode, harming Link more than his enemy.
