I never liked Fierce Diety in this fight. It feels too cheap and easy. It does have story implications though through symbolism much like the rest of Majora's Mask does though, so that's a bit neat, but that's about it for me. All of that said, Majora's Mask was designed to be able to be beaten by all of the forms in at least some manner without needing to switch out or anything like that. In this way, you can kind of choose your own hiddent difficulty or style to handle him. A very well designed final boss in this regard and breath of fresh air that I wish the Zelda series would revisit again.

I really want to thank you for doing this battle using only sword and shield. As an avid lover of this game I've analyzed the shit out of it for years. And with this, seeing Link use only a sword and shield against a demon like beast equipped with two massive whips able to slash and pull through link, I realized a new message in the game. Link is a child. Majora by the end of this battle is a giant compared to him. A giant of evil. Throughout the game Link has done small good deeds that seem unrelated to the impact of this battle. In this Link becomes an embodiment, or rather a symbol, of weak, innocent, but impactful good. The difference in their size and Link's skill and age really flushes out this idea. I never realized how important Link's age was in highlighting themes in the story until now. All said, its fucking badass to see a young guide wield a sword and shield two thirds his size and single handedly bane evil.

@SairekCeareste

You're welcome, although I think I still did rather bad consisting the battle. This isn't the only video of this I've done. On a more related note, everything you just mentioned is why I love the game so much, and why I've liked it enough to even start my own fanfiction of it. Although I only really write it on my own time. My fanfiction pretty much puts all of that into fruition. The whole near impossibility and the incredible danger Link puts himself in to try and save Termina, when in reality he honestly doesn't have to. The Woodfall really highlights it for me; both in game play and in a realism aspect; where a simple mistake in footing or getting hit has an effect on both the gameplay and on a realism side of things: Falling off those wooden platforms leads to certain death except in extreme rare cases. And even if you do make it out of that water alive, Link's usually going to be at less than 1 heart, panting from nearly being killed as you struggle to swim him back to the closest piece of land you can scramble desperately up on. In a story aspect though, it isn't just giants Link is fighting, but enemies that have been considered powerful enough to be considered deities. The Deku Scrubs were going to sacrifice the Monkey in the swamp to Odolwa, for example. Of course, the fact that Majora can summon up a whole freaking moon makes it godly enough as it is. I'd love to see Ganondorf do that. And the whole three days thing is just a game to the mask. A game to play with the people's hearts as doom just slowly descends down upon them. People criticize Majora's Mask for it's lack of story, but it does more story telling than any other Zelda game out there. There's even a paper airplane stuck on a pillar in Ikana castle. The simple polygon'd airplane tells A LOT about the potential history of Ikana castle before the kingdom's downfall, it's such a small detail that so many people missed or may not have even cared about, yet when you stop to think about it, it can tell so much. The Stalchildren in the Ikana graveyard too shows that Ikana was desperate enough, that they were using child soldiers to try and hold up in the war. So much detail that's not even relevant in the main story is the beauty of the game that a lot of people just outright miss.

Super Mooshroom *Technically* speaking, Majora is gender-less. The game and even the Manga refers to Majora as _'it'_, though in the game's view, that could be seen as just referring to Majora as a mask. In the manga however, Majora is sometimes referred to as a deity, even in background story to show how Majora was turned into a mask, and still seen as an 'it'. Even the "games" it plays with Link are rather gender-less. With "Hide & Seek" and "Tag", and then playing with the people of Termina as if they were merely dolls.

Sairek Ceareste I agree... Me, I'm one of those weird people who prefer the boss fights themselves to be epic rather than doing well when I fight the bosses. Meaning I never cheap my way to victory and often put restrictions on myself before I go into a boss fight (e.g., I might decide that I'll fight a boss while being massively underleveled, or poorly equipped, or not to use any healing items, or to end the fight with a certain super awesome but very impractical attack, or to let the boss hit _me_ with one of _their_ super awesome but very damaging attacks, just so it feels like me and the boss both went all-out... during one Kingdom Hearts run, I decided that I wouldn't let my Disney companions get Knocked Out even a single time, which was not only challenging but also made the message of friendship feel a lot more genuine). Majora's Wrath does _not_ play fair. xD But that ridiculous throw combo also made the fight that much more enjoyable to watch. Made the fight feel less one-sided and stuff. ^^ Heh... Well, I suppose that's up to you. Would you do it on the 3DS version next time?

GrahamChapman I have the 3DS version, but no way to capture my 3DS screen. I suppose with a 3DS emulator out now, it may be possible, albeit at the moment it's a bit unstable. I plan to hack my 3DS so I can emulate Majora's Mask on my PC (because my 3DS is really old and beginning to fall apart as it is, it can't even play regular DS games anymore). So if I can get that done, and assuming it all runs okay, then maybe. I'm glad they didn't change Majora in the 3DS version though like they did for all of the other bosses. The fight itself was fine, although the flinching mechanic itself was broken in the N64 version with being able to permanently hit stun Majora and pretty much all the other bosses.

@GrahamChapman

Sairek Ceareste Recording could pose a problem, true. An emulator is probably your best bet, provided you can find an emulator that both has okay image quality and is somewhat compatible with a recording software. M'yeah. Not that I particularily minded the updates they gave the other boss fights, (though they could've at least _tried_ to make them a bit harder,) but yeah, the fight against Majora was already good and iconic enough as it was... Also, yeah, the hitstun might've been a bit ridiculous.

I forgot just how *vicious* Wrath is. If you couldn't just sit behind your shield or have invulnerability frames after being knocked over for many of its attacks, it'd be a *Bloodborne* boss.

That flinging combo was glorious... I think what caused it is that Majoras wrath flings you when you are at a far range, and it happened to be in the middle of the map and.... only when it jumped to a particular side did the wombo combo end

I'm not sure if he's meant to try and fake you out by doing that, but usually when he falls near you, you can just poke him with the sword. Occasionally though if you get near him when he's like that, he will suddenly get up and counter attack with his projectile spam which is the only actual offensive ability he has. Despite what Tatl suggests by saying you should use the sword, getting near him is actually fairly dangerous as Link. The projectiles can't really be blocked at close range; they splash through the shield. They can even splash through it while you're distanced too. It's best to just avoid contact with them entirely by side hopping if possible. Using the Deku form actually works well here. The Deku's shell can actually blocks the projectiles completely and he always runs over the flower patterns (which you can burrow into) on the edge of the arena. The spin if he runs by you generally connects all the time too if you're up on the surface. It's also entirely possible to just hit him easily with the bow, so long as he is running straight away/towards you, the shots will generally connect but at times his AI will just have him abruptly run to the side, bow or no bow.

I like the camera angles that result from locking onto Majora's Incarnation with Z-targeting. It's only a side-effect of locking onto something that runs laps around the room in seconds flat, but it really adds to the "off-ness" of the whole thing.

@SairekCeareste

5 жыл бұрын

Only major problem with it is that lock-on range is too short that it's easy to lose him, and then you have to get very up close to try and lock on to him again, which at times can be very needlessly difficult to do. Ironically, it can be too difficult to lock onto the correct target you want, or to cancel targeting when the masks are flying about.

I remember fighting this guy in the remake. I didn't even know the Fierce Deity mask was a thing, it was my first Zelda game, so this whole fight was so unnerving. I just had to hang back most of the time to find their patterns, I was at a disadvantage and I knew it. The only way to win the fight was to be cowardly, only attacking when I was absolutely sure I could pull it off.

Damn Majora was mad. Grabbing you in the air like that I was like geez can he land first?

This battle was soooooo annoying, took me forever to understand how to kill Majora... 1st: in her first form you need to use Deku mask and dive into the flowers and fly when she's above you. You only need to do this 3 times untill the masks join the battle. 2nd: Kill the masks around with light arrows always defending from majoras laser. When the masks are gone, target majoras with her own laser using your shield till she turns herself into Michel Jackson's incarnation (I'm joking, but the moonwalking is awesome :D) 3: During the majoras incarnation, you just need to target her and throw arrows while she's dancing (watch out when she start to throw the bubbles). Whenever you hit an arrow, run to her and attack with your sword. Need to do this a few times till she turn into Majora's Wrath 4: When she turn into Majora's wrath put your Zora's mask (which will make your battle waaaaaay easier) and protect yourself with the eletric barrier (hope you had the romani chateau for unlimited magic) and get close enough for attacking her. Seriously, this is the best and easier way for killing her, once you have unlimited magic and you can do some harm with the eletric barrier, avoiding her annoying attacks...

That kick animation tho... This is by far my favorite Zelda boss battle.

This is definitely the way the fight should have been, more Dark Soulsy. The only change I would make to this game is that the fight should be impossible without the Fierce Deity mask, and using it means you can't use any magic items, and even _with_ the mask you're only as powerful to Majora as Link is regularly like in this video, you should be forced into this kind of sword fighting and forced to look for openings and things. And imagine the implications of that: Majora is so powerful it has to make you more powerful just so you'll be more entertaining to thrash.

@SairekCeareste

***** I agree as far as story goes, that being forced into the Fierce Diety mask would have made for a more climatic plot. Especially since this is what happens in the Manga. When Majora tells Link after Link had saved Skull Kid from being killed by him, to "play a game" with it. He decides tag, and tells Link that he's "it", and gives him the Fierce Diety mask. In Japan, the person who's "it" is the "Oni", meaning demon, which of course that is what the Fierce Diety mask turns Link in to. The thing about the game though, is that Majora is meant to be challenged in any way you want. There's supposed to be a variety of ways to defeat him -- some more challenging then others. Those flower patterns on the floor are for the Deku Scrub, for example. So if you're really crazy, you can defeat him using only the Deku transformation. There's also the thing that the game never actually forces you to pick up heart pieces or heart containers. So you can go throughout the entire game with only 3 hearts. The game was explicitly designed to allow veteran players to choose the difficulty of the game by choice. So the game sacrifices a little bit of game-play and plot, for a lot of replay-ability. It's hard to fault it because of that, because it does work. And gameplay wise, suddenly being thrust into a new transformation you have no idea of its abilities, would be a bit of a nasty move. The game always teaches you and gives you information on how to use a transformation. While Fierce Diety acts the same as Link mechanically, on a technical standpoint he is quite different.

Sairek Ceareste There's a bunch of ways around that from a design point of view - you can't heal in the Fierce Deity mask, so _when_ you need to heal, not if, you could have the four masks spawn at the Majora's Wrath part on four different hard to reach places, only accessible and defeatable by certain masks or combos of masks, all the while avoiding Majora's long range whip attacks. Or you could have it so you can only harm Majora at all even with the Fierce Deity mask after attacking and defeating one of the other masks, which in turn can't be damaged by Fierce Deity, forcing you to mix and match mask combos and items and the like. That would also make the arena a bit more fun, huge spiralling staircases and platforms and things.

What? The fight would still be over in a couple of minutes. Just don't bother using FD. Besides, its a Zelda boss. There have only been a small amount of bosses that were challenging or difficult. And most of those were designed by Capcom. i.e. Gleeok, Original Ganon, Rebonack, Thunderbird, Vaati, Sham-rok, Genie, Oracles Manhandla, the flying Stingrays. Most Zelda bosses are sadly, cake. :(

young child kills sentient dancing mask inside the moon using a sword which fires lasers.

that finish though..!! sick

@NightmareX7 The flinging move is actually two attacks at once. If you're too close, he will just hit you. And if you're too far away but still in hitting range, he will hit you as well. If you're in the middle though, he is going to wrap around you, and toss you. And then possibly again. And maybe again after that. And maybe one more time after that...

Wow. I did several Normal Link runs, and this video is the first time I've ever seen that "flinging" move used. That's funny, actually, because he loved using on you.

I really wished this boss was harder. It never gets a chance to showcase it’s interesting attacks because it dies so quickly. I like this video because it shows it all

In all seriousness; it's an anagram for the entire mask just toying with Link for literally the entire game. From the time it stole Epona and his Ocarina from him to the very last form when it finally decides to get serious. Even dropping the moon in three days is a game to it.

love how you get to majoras wrath and he's tired of your shit

Yknow, I breezed through this fight with the fierce deity mask like many others have, but watching this has given me courage to give this a shot

You should! The boss is intentionally designed to be able to be combated in multiple ways, even with various forms, despite the suggestions Tatl gives you.

Great fight! I wanna try it your way. No light arrows, no deku mask. Just a good ol sword and shield.

...Tell me about it.... x.x I literally began laughing out loud both at the odds and at the complete utter cheapness of it all. Out of the like, 20 different attacks he knows in stage 2 of his final form, there's only a 5% chance for him to use it each of the 5 times he did.

If feels as if sword and shield is how this should have been done. The final phase actually lasts a good while and the attacks are actually really good at defending, so it prologues the battle well and this was...actually fun to watch. It was too fast with arrows for me.

I forgot how creepy the last two battles were goosh

I see very few people trying to beat Majora's Wrath only with sword and shield. In the first place, I wonder how many people know they can do that. Thanks a lot.

Painful but the hylian shield makes u invincible against majora wrath

TV tropes brought me here to show how link is being thrown back and forth five times in a row without even an instant to recover

7:25 I've never seen this happen before.

The way Majora moves is eerie

very good sairek

Getting all of the fairies in the first temple would have really helped the shop spin attack

Epic battle

I've always wondered what type of whips Majora's Wrath used for a long time

I agree. And this was a lot more fun to do too.

I did this as a kid... With cheats...:) I will try without soon!

I actually beat the final boss without anything on my c-stick whatsoever. I went to the kid wearing twinmold’s mask on the moon, sold him 4 masks and left his minigame, so I had nothing on my c-stick. I challenged myself to beat majoras wrath without putting anything on any of my c-buttons throughout the entire fight (including bottles) so my items were blank through the entire fight and all damage I felt to majora was don’t with my sword. It was actually super difficult but I’m glad I did it.

This is fricking nightmare fuel

Thanks a lot. It is nice having a video where you can actually look at the boss' AI since most videos just show them being raped with OP equipment/stunlocks. I'm guessing you would have finished it quicker if you dominated the quick spin back then, but can't really blame you as that thing is hard to do even on a real N64 controller.

Majora's AI of picking Link up and throwing him 5 times in a row? :P In all seriousness, if I really wanted to end it quickly, it wouldn't be with spin-slashing but the whole invulnerability frame abuse, where if you time it properly, you can permalock bosses in place with just normal slashes. Basically what the speedrunners use. The time period isn't gracious but it's more than doable.

what I find fascinating is the difference of emotional tones from majora and ganon. ganon was in agony and filled with hatred. he was in unimaginable distress and excruciating pain throughout that brutal battle in OoT. the music portrayed the sense of broken agony and anguish of both link and ganon(dorf). ganon was evil but he had a good reason. and his mind and body were crying out in anguish because he could not control his agony and anguish thus turning him Into ganon. but majora is different. were ganon was suffering in emotional (and physical) agony, majora has no emotions. the moodhere is a sense of nihilistic insanity and pure evil. the pain is gone, only to be replaced with fear!!!

According to the backstory, Majora used to be a playful god who fell, because it apparently consumed greedy humans who were trying to kill it to grant their wishes (this is where the whole "wish" backstory of the mask came from). But in doing so, after consuming so much greed, it became greedy itself, and began to consume everything, until the original world it came from had nothing left. Until some adventure came around and sealed the embodiment of Majora into the mask and it was locked away until the Happy Mask Salesman came around. The whole greed and playful aspect of Majora is evident with the fact the moon wants to "Consume everything" and even in the boss fight, the Mask is just floating or running around (quite literally), toying with you, and taunting you until the final phase. And even then, the final phase has those top... things. Which in a way can even resemble a playful toy. Majora will also still take moments to even taunt Link, waiting for him to get close, or dodge when you try to shoot an arrow at it when it's doing so.

Wow, final stage is MERCILESS!

To be fair, that _is_ when Majora decides to stop playing "games" -- a theme that's present with the mask's behavior throughout all of the game.

I beat the game this way because I had no idea you could leave the moon with the song of time to get the extra masks

The form with the whips is my favorite. And I find the one that runs around fast to be incredibly annoying.

gg well played!

oh you didn't get the great bay stray faries, thats a ballsy move

Well, I didn't get any fairies technically. I just gave myself what I wanted with cheats. I already played through the game enough times. xD

i should really try this next time i fight him. maybe ill use arrows or something, since SnS alone seems a bit tedious, but this seems a lot more fun than fierce deity spam.

light arrows are a very effective way to stun Majora for a Long Time

this battle is currently causing me so much anguish

I like majoras incarnation the best 😂😂

@deoxys2deffense I'll be honest, I had burst out laughing for a good 10 seconds when he just went left and tripped into the wall. I was like "What the hell are you doing, Majora?" That's why I stood there just defending for a good 25 seconds; had to regain my composure. If making me lose my concentration was it's plan, it sure worked for a good while!

If he wraps his whip around your Zora form, you can send an electric charge up his arm and stun/damage him.

That would defeat a sword and shield challenge, though.

Majora’s incarnation is like a good FGC player that messes with and taunts some random dude they never seen and then he morphs into Majora’s Wrath when he realizes “Oh s*it, this random guy is actually pretty good” lol

To me.. that whip-flinging link is canon. Considering how powerful majora is, she/he would torture link like that. Showing that there is no hope for the poor boy. majora's wrath shows no mercy, and does not play fair. If only she/he could whip away your health potions... that would be awesome.

The entire journey inside Termina is full of hopeless, really. It's the entire theme of the game. Between the poison swamp, where everything is dying, the harsh blizzard in the mountains where nothing can live, the ocean where nothing can be born, and the canyon where the undead cannot rest. Then of course there's the moon, showing the unstoppable impending doom wherever you go looming up above. The final battle against a mere mortal 11-year-old boy against a literal god is nothing but hopeless under normal circumstances.

It isn't fun being thrown 5 times in a row and losing 25% of your health, either. >.o I have to admit though I was laughing after that. But mostly because it's a bit of a broken mechanic.

I didn't know this boss could fight back...

To be honest, sheathing the sword is a bad idea that I learned later on, even if it allows you to roll later on. Although I supposed the main reason I did it is because I was playing on a keyboard, and it quite honestly sucks terribly with the keyboard buffer. I actually backflip his attacks now; since it aims the shield above you (if you're not too early on it's timing) so his attacks don't hit "directly" on top and clip "through" the shield. His grabbing and flinging is still cheap, though.

the sad part is that this dude got thrown around like a baseball

Next time I fight Majora I'm fighting Majora like this. Using arrows to stun him is to damn easy and makes the final battle anticlimactic.

majora's incarnation= acid trip gone wrong

3:58 He tripped XD

And this is why you should never neglect your arrows kids!
