Template:Boss

The Massive Eye is a mini-boss in Phantom Hourglass, who attacks the S.S. Linebeck when it is near docking at Goron Island. It resembles a large, floating purple and black whale with four tentacle-like fins, large lips, a horned nose and six eyes. The Massive Eye catches the S. S. Linebeck in a Mini Cyclone, dumping it southwest of Goron Island.^[1] The ships engine fails at this stage,^[2] and thus, during the fight with the Massive Eye, the ship is unable to move.

Strategy

To defeat the gargantuan opponent, Link must shoot the fish in each of its six eyes twice, using the cannon.^[3] The eyes are originally yellow, and turn pink after the first hit, before being destroyed on the second. The Massive Eye will fly in a set pattern above Link's ship, firing yellow energy balls and other common sea enemies at the ship. Link must shoot these down with his cannon to be able to shoot the fish's eyes and to stock the ship up on hearts. The fish will also swoop down and charge the ship, often causing it to lose a heart, but this is unavoidable. When the Massive Eye is defeated, Link and Linebeck can safely dock at Goron Island.^[4]

Trivia

The music and circumstances of the fight greatly resemble that of Big Octos from The Wind Waker.

-'''Maiamais''' are a jointly snail and squid-like species that appear in {{ALBW}}. The '''Lost Maiamais''' are the children of [[Mother Maiamai]], scattered across the lands of [[Hyrule]] and [[Lorule]].

-==Biography==
-[[File:ALBW Lost Maiamai Icon.png|left]]
-When [[Link]] first meets Mother Maiamai in a cave in [[Lake Hylia]], she pleads for the hero to find and collect her missing children and return them,<ref>{{Cite|Could you find all of them? You'll hear my children crying--calling for their Mother Maiamai!|Mother Maiamai|ALBW}}</ref> promising rewards in exchange. For every 10 Lost Maiamais Link finds, Mother Maiamai will upgrade one of his items into a "Nice" weapon (provided he owns the weapon and is not merely renting it from [[Ravio]]). To aid him in his search, Mother Maiamai also gives Link the [[Maiamai Map]], which tracks the number of Lost Maiamais remaining in the world's divided sections.
+==Strategy==
-One hundred Lost Maiamais in total can be found in the overworlds of [[Hyrule]] and [[Lorule]], each of them crying for their mother. Their squeaking will be audible if the Maiamai is within the camera's view. If Link stands near a Lost Maiamai, he will turn his head and stare towards its direction, providing a hint towards its exact location if it is hidden. This also works when Link and the Maiamais are at different elevations. Many Maiamais are well hidden, and require certain abilities or items to rescue. Some Maiamais may be found under rocks or in grass. Maiamais hidden in trees can be jostled out by running into the tree with the [[Pegasus Boots]]. Maiamais stuck on walls can be pushed off by Link [[Wall Merge|Wall Merging]] into the wall, then separating himself from the wall when he is beneath the Maiamai. Once Link can use the [[Sand Rod]], he can also use it to unearth Maiamais from sand as well.
+To defeat the gargantuan opponent, [[Link]] must shoot the fish in each of its six eyes twice, using the cannon.<ref>{{cite|A monster like that, who knows how to deal with it... Maybe... OH! FIRE! Fire! Fire! And fire some more! Yeah, as long as you keep shooting, we just might survive this.

The engine's had a chance to dry out! So set our course. Let's go!|Linebeck|PH}}</ref>
+==Trivia==
-After all Maiamais have been found, Link's [[Spin Attack]] ability will be upgraded to the [[Great Spin]], and Mother Maiamai will leave her cave with her children to a different dimension.<ref>{{Cite|It's a bit sudden, but we must bid you good-bye. I'm off to a different dimension with my Maiamais!|Mother Maiamai|ALBW}}</ref> After this, a single female Maiamai will stay behind in the cave, telling Link that she is the 72nd that he saved,<ref>{{Cite|Hello there, Link! I'm the 72nd Maiamai you saved! Thanks for all your help. Mom and the others have gone off. But I--? Well, I stayed behind. Time for me to be my own Maiamai.|Maiamai|ALBW}}</ref> and asking the young hero to wish her luck on being as good of a mother as Mother Maiamai.<ref>{{cite|Hopefully I'll learn to be as good of a mother as my Mother Maiamai. Wish me luck, Link!|Maiamai|ALBW}}</ref>
