Hits to defeat calculator

Drops

When the Beamos is defeated, one of 16 slots is picked at random, so each slot is a 6.25% chance.

DropChance
Bomb (5)56.25%
Nothing43.75%

Arrows need the Hero's Bow and bombs need a Bomb Bag; magic needs the magic meter. Without them that slot drops nothing. A Recovery Heart at full health becomes a Green Rupee.

Where to find it

Official guide

A stationary monster that fires beams. Hit it with a Bomb or Bombchu to defeat it. Shoot its eye and it stops moving for a short time.

ゼルダの伝説 ムジュラの仮面のすべて (エンターブレイン, 2000), p. 190: Translated by 101Leafy

Throw a bomb at the Beamos' feet and then try to keep out of range of its laser beam and exploding head.
