'''Gūma''' (generically called '''goblins'''<ref> | |||
'''Gūma''' (generically called '''goblins'''<ref>''The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition Player's Guide'', page 30</ref> in the Player's Guide for ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition]]'') are {{wp|Minotaur}}-like enemies in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]''. They reside in [[palace]]s starting with [[Parapa Palace]], where they can be found tossing an endless amount of flails in a tall arc and occasionally jumping, a behavior likely inspired by the [[Mariowiki:Hammer Bro|Hammer Bro]]thers from the ''[[Mariowiki:Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series. Due to the barrage of flails, approaching them without taking damage can be difficult, though they occasionally have a slightly wider time gap between throws. At first, they will take several hits to defeat, though as [[Link]] gets stronger that number will decrease. In later palaces, they start being replaced by an armored variant, [[Doomknocker]], which throws a mace like a boomerang, and in the [[Great Palace]], are replaced with the fire-breathing harpy [[Soprano]]. | |||
The Western releases also include a similar boss called [[Gooma]], which swings a giant flail around. Many English guidebooks seem to confuse them to various degrees, with artwork intended for Gūma going to Gooma instead; confusion over this artwork may also be how Gooma gained its name. | The Western releases also include a similar boss called [[Gooma]], which swings a giant flail around.
