Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom: How To Defeat Vocavor

Welcome to our Boss Guides for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.

Here we'll be tackling the boss of the Jabul Ruins dungeon. This is the only boss that's entirely set in a side-scrolling section, making it unique among Echoes of Wisdom's other bosses.

Below we've detailed the best strategy on how to beat Vocavor, the Jabul Ruins dungeon, and the rewards it drops.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom: Vocavor Boss Strategy

Because you'll be swimming for most of this boss, you can equip either the Zora's Flippers or the Zora Scale to help with swim speed or oxygen — whatever you're struggling with more. We'd recommend the Flippers first as there are plenty of oxygen bubbles dotted around the base of the arena, and the second phase has a couple of open spots where you'll be on your feet.

You can also drink smoothies made with Bubble Kelp or Riverhorses to help your swim speed and oxygen too.

For this fight, you'll largely be limited to your swimming Echoes for most of this fight, so use those and Swordfighter Form to your advantage.

Vocavor Phase 1

You'll be underwater for this entire phase, so if you need to, grab some air bubbles.Vocavor has one move in this phase — it will send small whirlpools at you. You can easily avoid these by swimming up and down.

What you want to do is send a Bombfish or Chompfin at its back to destroy the blue, exposing its weak point. Swap to Swordfighter Form and dish out as much damage as you can.

You might need to do this twice, but this shouldn't give you any trouble at all. Just keep an eye on your oxygen levels.

Vocavor Phase 2

For the second phase, the arena will change slightly. There are now two pockets of open space where Vocavor can float.

The fish will still send small whirlpools your way, except now it will also sweep and swim around the bottom in an attempt to avoid you.

Your strategy is essentially the same here, except you can't rely on fish as much. Use some flying echoes if you have them, or just take a risk and swap to Swordfighter form to destroy the blue on his back. Eventually it'll collapse, giving you the opportunity to attack it over and over.

Do this twice and you'll win. You'll get Heart Container, a level-up for Tri, and, 5 Might Crystals.

Next stop depends on what you've already done! You might be heading to the Gerudo Desert to fix the rift there, or you might be returning to Hyrule Castle Town to save the king.
