What?! You don't even know about the Skulltula? It's protected by a hard shell, but its stomach is soft!

Damage
How hard each weapon hits the Skulltula, and how many hits it takes to defeat it. A jump attack with a sword or a Deku Stick hits twice as hard.

Drops
When the Skulltula is defeated, one of 16 slots is picked at random, so each slot is a 6.25% chance.
| Drop | Chance |
|---|---|
| 12.5% | |
| 6.25% | |
| Depends on Link's form | 12.5% |
| 6.25% | |

| What Link is short of | 6.25% |
| Nothing | 43.75% |
Link's form decides: 10 Arrows as Link, a Recovery Heart with the Zora Mask on, a Magic Jar with the Goron Mask on, and a Green Rupee with the Deku Mask or the Fierce Deity's Mask on.
What Link is short of decides, checked in this order: a Fairy at 1 heart or less, Recovery Heart ×3 at 3 hearts or less, Recovery Heart ×1 at 5 hearts or less, a Magic Jar (large) with magic below half, 30 Arrows with fewer than 6 arrows, Bomb (5) with fewer than 6 bombs, and a Red Rupee with fewer than 11 Rupees. Otherwise nothing.
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 spider-type monster. It waits on ceilings and similar places and drops down when prey comes near. Its back is hard but its belly is soft, so aim there.
If you've played Ocarina of Time, then you should know all about these giant spiders. The armor on their front is almost impenetrable, so aim for their back when they turn around.
