Changes: Gemesaur King

Template:Boss Dharkstare is the boss of the Ice Ruins in A Link Between Worlds. It is the Lorulean counterpart of Kholdstare, and guards the portrait of Rosso. Its lair lies at the very bottom of the ruins.

Strategy

Like its counterpart, Kholdstare, Dharkstare will encase itself in ice to protect itself. However, it is capable of movement, unlike Kholdstare. It will attack by trying to ram into Link, and shooting three orbs of ice, which will form a triangle around Link after being shot, and after a few seconds, anything inside the triangle will be frozen. In this form, its only weakness is the Fire Rod. After three hits, the ice barrier will melt, and it will flail around wildly. Link must then attack it with his Sword. After a few hits, it will disappear into the shadows and reappear in the middle of the arena, where it will create a new barrier of ice. After enough hits, its eye will become red, its tentacles will become purple, and it will shoot six ice orbs instead of three, meaning that it can create two freezing triangles at the same time. Once it is defeated, Link will receive a Heart Container and Rosso's Painting.

Etymology

Dharkstare is a portmanteau of the word 'dark' and 'stare'. Notably, its spelling is similar to the name of Kholdstare, as an H is added after the first letter.

 ==Strategy==
+Like its counterpart, Kholdstare, Dharkstare will encase itself in ice to protect itself. However, it is capable of movement, unlike Kholdstare. It will attack by trying to ram into [[Link]], and shooting three orbs of ice, which will form a triangle around Link after being shot, and after a few seconds, anything inside the triangle will be frozen. In this form, its only weakness is the [[Fire Rod]]. After three hits, the ice barrier will melt, and it will flail around wildly. Link must then attack it with his [[Sword]].

After enough hits, its eye will become red, its tentacles will become purple, and it will shoot six ice orbs instead of three, meaning that it can create two freezing triangles at the same time. Once it is defeated, Link will receive a [[Heart Container]] and Rosso's Painting.
-Unlike the [[Helmasaur King]] from {{ALttP}}, who is a bulky ranged attacker, the Gemesaur King is an agile physical attacker. This can be noted due to the fact that he does not breath fire like his Hyrulean counterpart, but rather charges at [[Link]]. The strategy to defeat Gemesaur King is to throw [[Bomb]]s at his mask to damage it. If a Bomb explosion hits any of the crystals on its back, [[Rupee]]s will be dropped.
-Once the mask is broken, the Gemesaur King will attempt to confuse Link by turning the room pitch black. He will dash around the perimeter of the room and try to trample Link, who must use the [[Lantern]] or the [[Fire Rod]] to light the two torches in the bottom right and the top left corners. This will reveal the Gemesaur King, stopping his mad dashing and allowing Link to attack the jewel on his head with his [[Sword]].

-Gemasaur King is a portmanteau of gem and Helmasaur King.
