Feed Jabu Jabu Bombfish

To defeat Jabu-Jabu, wait until it starts inhaling water, then conjure a Bombfish echo and throw it into its mouth before it closes.

The Bombfish will explode inside its mouth, stunning the boss for a short time.

Use the Swordfighter Form

Once Jabu-Jabu is stunned, switch to the Swordfighter Form and attack quickly.

Repeat the process of feeding Bombfish and attacking while it's vulnerable until it recovers.

Swordfighter Form Explained

Avoid Getting Inhaled

While Jabu-Jabu inhales, avoid being sucked in yourself, as this costs you 1 heart each time.

Defeat the Mobs With Bombfish or Biri

During the fight, enemies will spawn. Use the Bombfish Echo to trigger explosions.

Alternatively, you can summon Biri Echoes to release electrical attacks, though Biri has a limited range.

Upon defeat, the enemies will drop hearts for you to collect.

Attack Until Boss is Down
