'''Beamos''' are a recurring security apparatus that is capable of rotating an eye around its body, from which it can fire a laser at intruders. In some games, they are treated as a simple obstacle, though in others, they seem to be actually sentient. In most latter cases, they can be defeated, generally by destroying the eye. | '''Beamos''' are a recurring security apparatus that is capable of rotating an eye around its body, from which it can fire a laser at intruders.

They are tall green pedestals that are first found in the [[Desert Palace]], later appearing in [[Misery Mire]] and [[Ganon's Tower]]. If they see [[Link]], they will fire a laser in his direction before continuing to slowly spin. Sometimes, they are found on conveyor belts moving in a rectangle pattern. | ||

They now have a rotating eye within an eyelid over a metallic body resembling a sneering face balanced on two tiny feet. They are first found in [[Dodongo's Cavern]], and reappear in several later dungeons like the [[Spirit Temple]], the [[Shadow Temple]], and [[Ganon's Castle]]. If they see Link, they will fire a continuous laser towards him while actively trying to keep their gaze on him. They can be defeated with a [[bomb]] or [[Bomb Flower]] to the eye, which destroys their body while causing the eye to explode a few seconds later. If the bomb is too far away when it explodes, though, they will simply close their eye for a moment. | ||

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'', Beamos are very tall and have two designs depending on location, but act like the ones in ''Ocarina of Time'' beyond a faster rotation. Both can be defeated via an arrow to the red eye. The first is a dark-colored rectangular monolith found in [[Goron Mines]] and a [[lantern cavern]] near [[Lake Hylia]]. After being defeated, some of these can be pushed. The other type is light-colored and more cylindrical, being unique to the [[Temple of Time]].

They resemble their appearance from the [[Nintendo 64]] games, but with a darker, more rocky appearance. They only ever attack allied forces, even if their keep has been taken over. To attack, they charge up a laser and fire several lasers in a line on the ground, with an explosion coming from each shortly after. They can be defeated with bombs. | ||
