The fight, step by step
Walk into the middle of the chamber and look up. Gohma hangs from the ceiling and drops down once you spot her.
Keep your distance while she prowls. When her eye turns red, she's about to lunge, so shoot it with the Fairy Slingshot (a Deku Nut works up close).
A clean hit flips her over, stunned. Run in and slash her eye with the Kokiri Sword, or jump-attack with a Deku Stick for heavier damage.
When she climbs back to the ceiling, shoot her there to knock her down before she drops eggs.
If eggs hit the floor, smash them with your sword or slingshot before they hatch into Gohma Larvae.
Repeat the stun-and-slash cycle until she falls; a Deku Stick jump attack shortens the fight a lot.
New in the remake: the Hall of Fallen Foes keeps a statue of every enemy you defeat, and lets you rematch some bosses.
