Armogohma

Twilit Arachnid, Armogohma (覚醒甲殻眼 シェルドゴーマ) is the boss of the Temple of Time, the sixth dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Armogohma is a giant tarantula with a single eyeball on its thorax encased in an armored exoskeleton. Armogohma's true form is a small spider with an eyeball design on its abdomen. This boss is arguably one of the easiest boss battles in the game. Armogohma bears a similar name and attack set (aside from its beam attack) to Queen Gohma in Ocarina of Time.

The original design for Armogohma is known as Beta Gohma. In the trailer for a fictional live-action The Legend of Zelda movie, one quick scene shows Link facing Armogohma for the first time.

Battle
In the beginning of the battle, Armogohma will be crawling on the ceiling. To defeat Armogohma, Link must wait until she stops moving to shoot her beams, during which he must fire an arrow into her "eye". When she falls to the floor, Link must take control of the nearest statue with the Dominion Rod to attack her. When Armogohma gets up, she spawns numerous Baby Gohma to attack Link. She then crawls back up on the ceiling, and the process repeats. She also has a beam attack that is similar to that of Beamos. After a few repetitions, Armogohma's armor will be destroyed.

After her armor has been destroyed, Armogohma will run around with the Baby Gohma and attempt to escape. Link must either chase down the real Armogohma and slash it with his sword, or simply shoot its abdomen with an arrow three times. Another method is to use one of the statues to destroy Armogohma's true form. Alternatively, it can be defeated by one Bomb Arrow or with one hit from the Ball and Chain.
