A mummy man. It has great strength, and its attack is strong too.
A mummy man. It has great strength, and its attack is strong too.
The mummy man. He's got some strange powers, and some pretty powerful attacking force.
Mummy men. Gibdos attack you with a "body crash" without using any weapons. Since a Gibdo does not move quickly, it's not too difficult to dodge his "body crash". However, Gibdo's "body crash" is a powerful one. Be careful not to be attacked.
Its body slam does heavy damage, but it moves fairly slowly, so the sword and also candle attacks work well.
A mummy man who is proud of his great strength. It shuffles around in little steps. When one is carrying bombs or a key you can see them through it, so go after that one. It is pretty strong!
A mummy man with great strength. Even the Magical Sword cannot beat it in one stab, so be careful not to get caught between two of them.
A mummy man. Its attack is strong, and a plain sword is no match for it.
A creepy mummy man. It comes at you fearing nothing and does big damage with its great strength. It looks silly, but let your guard down and it's scary. Still, if you take care not to touch it, it is easier to beat than you'd think.
An eerie mummy that has settled in the underground labyrinths. It is very strong, and its attacks hit hard too. Be careful not to get caught. It's better not to fight it up close.
A mummy with a lot of life but slow movements. It quite often gives you things like Bombs.
It is hardly different from the mummy of ancient Egyptian legend, wrapped round and round in bandages in that familiar style. Its attack is fairly strong, and it is very powerful too.
A mummy that holds up well in both attack and stamina, but its movements are simple. Go after it the same way as a Stalfos.
A mummy. It carries no weapon and goes after Link only by ramming him. The Gibdo does not move very fast, though, so its ramming attack is not hard to dodge.
