How to Defeat Twinrova
To defeat Twinrova in Ocarina of Time, you need to reflect the boss's attacks using the Mirror Shield. In the second phase, you can reflect a powerful blast back by absorbing the same elemental magic 3 times in a row.
Reflect the Boss's Attacks with the Mirror Shield
| Controls | Hold＋ |
|---|
In the Twinrova fight, you deal damage by reflecting the boss's attacks back with the Mirror Shield. There are two phases in total. In the first phase, you face two opponents: Koume (fire) and Kotake (ice). Reflect the magic fired by one sister and hit the other with it.
Fight Without Z-Targeting in Phase 1
In phase 1, you need to adjust the angle of the Mirror Shield to reflect the magic. Since Z-targeting locks the shield direction, make sure to turn it off and fight without targeting.
Reposition to Keep Both Enemies in View
Since you must reflect one sister's attack onto the other, keep moving to a spot where you can see both enemies at all times.
After Merging, Absorb the Same Element 3 Times in a Row
Once you deal enough damage in phase 1, the two sisters merge into Twinrova (phase 2). In phase 2, if you absorb the same elemental magic 3 times in a row with the Mirror Shield, you can fire it back as a powerful reflected blast. Focus on absorbing either fire or ice — whichever comes first — and block 3 consecutive hits of the same element.
Z-Targeting Is Easier in Phase 2
Since there is only one enemy in phase 2, you don't need to manually adjust the reflection angle. Using Z-targeting will automatically face you toward the enemy, making the fight much easier.
Dodge Attacks of an Element You Haven't Been Absorbing
If you block a magic projectile of a different element than the one you have been absorbing with the Mirror Shield, your absorption progress will be reset. When a different elemental attack comes your way, dodge it and let it pass.
Watch Out — Attacks Linger on the Floor
When the boss's attack hits the floor, it remains as a damage zone for a short time. When dodging, be careful not to step near the impact point.
Attack with Your Sword When Twinrova Is Knocked Down
When you land a reflected blast, Twinrova will be knocked down. Rush in immediately and deal damage with your sword. Twinrova will recover after a short time, so repeat the cycle: absorb the magic, reflect it, knock her down, and slash away.
