List of Contents
| Igneo Talus | |
|---|---|
| HP | 800 |
| Species | Talus |
| This enormous monster is naturally camouflaged as a molten rock formation. Neither sword nor arrow can pierce its fiery form. Merely touching its magma-hot body can burn you pretty badly, but you may be able to scale it if you can use something to chill its flames. | |
| Location Name | Region |
|---|---|
| Medingo Pool | Eldin |
| Lake Darman | Eldin |
| Gortram Cliff | Eldin |
| Gorko Lake | Eldin |
| Eldin Mountains | Eldin |
The locations shown here are the closest ones that are labelled on the map. The enemy's precise location may be slightly different, so it is best to go to the location named above, then turn on your sensor to try and find the enemy.

Freeze Igneo Talus's body to avoid getting damaged over time by its fire. You can extinguish the fire by hitting its body with an Ice Arrow or Ice Weapon, such as a Frostblade. A successful hit with an Ice Arrow or Ice Weapon will also stun it for 2-3 seconds. Take that opportunity to climb its body and continuously attack the ore.

Exploit the Igneo Talus's weak point, which is the ore deposit on top of its body. Use a Bow and target its ore to stun it for 2-3 seconds. Take that chance to freeze its body and attack the ore.

We recommend equipping a Hammer weapon, and then using a charged attack on the ore to deal more damage against it. If you already have Urbosa's Fury, it can be charged to inflict more damage to the Igneo Talus.

After it finishes recovering from your freezing attacks, it will smash the ground to make its body on fire again. The smash attack has a wide area of effect, be sure to get away from Igneo Talus once he recovers!

Igneo Talus has a ranged attackーthrowing its stone arms at Link. This attack covers a very wide range, so be sure to sprint to your left or right to evade the attack.

After losing its arms, it will stop and recover them. It will give you a small window to climb its body and wither down its HP. Make sure to climb from its back to prevent yourself from getting hurt as he gets a new pair of arms.

Alternatively, you can use Remote Bombs to destroy its arms. These are especially useful if you want to save your arrows for an easy stun.

It is not recommended to parry the stones as they can still hurt Link. Even if the parry is perfect, the debris from the stone can still hit and damage Link. We highly suggest that you evade the attack and wait for an opportunity to attack back.
