Volvagia
Volvagia is a boss in Ocarina of Time on the Nintendo 64 with 24 health.
Navi's advice
It's the Boss of the Fire Temple, revived by the Evil King. I don't know its weak point...

Damage
Volvagia has 24 health. Damage 1 is in flight: each hit on its head takes 2, an ice arrow 4, but none brings it below 2. Damage 2 is its head out of a hole: at first only the hammer lands, for 2, and stuns it. While it is stunned, the hits in that column count, and only a sword, Deku Stick, or hammer hit takes its last 2 health.

Damage to Link

Boss of the Fire Temple. Its weak point is its nose: hit its head with the Megaton Hammer when it pokes out of a hole, then slash it. Arrows work while it flies. When it rains rocks, hang from the edge of a platform.

Hit its head with the Megaton Hammer when it rises out of a hole.
Whenever Volvagia surfaced Link greeted the dragon with a mighty swing from his Megaton Hammer.

When it comes out of a lava pit, hit it on the head with the Megaton Hammer. An arrow to the head stops it when it flies overhead.
When it erupts from a lava pit, rush to it, Hammer poised, and hit it on the crown of its head.

A dragon living under the ground. When its head looks out of a lava hole, hit its nose fast with the Megaton Hammer; it is stunned for a moment, so follow up with more hammer blows. When it takes to the air, the Hookshot pulls it back down.
