Here's some custom bosses i plan on making. Please tell me what you think and give me ideas for additional attacks for each:

1) Beamosa: A golden beamos-like enemy that you shoot multiple times in the eye with an arrow at certain times in order to kill it. It shoots all sorts of lazer beams from its eye.

2) Dodongo King: A very large dodongo that rolls around a lot but occasionally will elongate & then walk around slowly, breathing fire. It also can summon many baby dodongos. It also can make boulders fall from above. Will require you to blast it with super bombs at appropriate times.

3) Ice Dragon: It breathes sub-zero winds that damage Link and can make icycles fall from the top of the ice cavern. Perhaps it also throws blocks of ice at link or whips Link with its tail. Not sure how i want it to be defeated but i'm thinking of requiring the hammer somehow.

4) Nova Robe: This is a giant wizzrobe which shoots every kind of project that other wizzrobes can shoot. Using freeform combos, i can make it shoot magic, flames, whirlwinds, and so on. It also has a unique attack where it charges up a very large black ball, similar to Ganondorf in OoT. This will not really move but rather disappear & reappear at various points around the room.

5) Fire Snake: A giant snake that will charge every now & then but after doing so, it crashes into the wall, leaving its tail vulnerable to damage. It may also leave behind a trail of little fire sparkles that it sheds so you'll take damage if you walk over them.

Wow, those bosses sound really cool. You'll probably have a fun time implementing them into the game, but if you manage to, those will be interesting battles. :thumbsup: The only thing is with the Dodongo King, how you have to blast it with super bombs. Considering a player will have a maximum of 3 or 4 super bombs (but probably carrying zero or 1), maybe it should be with bombs. Unless you will allow the player to carry lots of super bombs and the price of them will be low. But otherwise, those bosses sound great. :)

The Ice Dragon, I think, could work on the principle of the triple headed dragon from LTTP. You know the one that has a fire, ice and rock head. But if you want to do the hammer part, you might want to think about using the broken Darknut shield principle to make it similar to the Helmasaur King also from LTTP.

P.S. abit off topic, but um, I've decided to go back to school and get a drafting degree, so I can get out of my stress Domino's job.

the nova robe sounds awesome. instead of it summoning bats, if it is like all the wizzrobe types as one, could it summon vires?

j/w. apart from that, it all sounds cool.
