The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker eGuide Legendary Checklist

Big Octos

Six Big Octos lurk beneath the Great Sea, waiting to devour unwary vessels. Seek out these massive creatures and defeat them to earn hundreds of Rupees, a couple Pieces of Heart, and a Magic Meter upgrade.

To find a Big Octo, look for flocks of seagulls circling an area in each of the sectors in the following checklist. The Telescope helps you find the circling seagulls from a distance. When you spot them, sail toward them. A Big Octo rises from the water as you approach, capturing you in a whirlpool.

Use the Boomerang to target up to five of the Big Octo’s yellow eyes at once. Each eye shuts after suffering three Boomerang hits. When you take out all of the Big Octo’s eyes, it sinks, defeated, to the bottom of the sea, leaving behind a ring of light. Sail to the ring of light and use the Grappling Hook to pull up your reward!
