Tips and Tricks on How to Defeat Lord Jabu-Jabu in The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom
You’ll see this tip in many of ourThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdomguides, and it’s one you should keep in mind for the entirety of the game: When a shop sells an accessory that will give you certain boosts, it will come in very handy in that area’s boss fight.

As this battle takes place in the water, most of your usual summons, as well as your bow and arrow, won’t work. Opt for aquatic or airborne echoes instead. The Bombfish is your best friend in this fight.
Whenever Lord Jabu-Jabu gets stunned, he’ll spit out Energy spheres. Make sure to always collect these to be able to use Swordfighter Form.
He will also keep spewing out all kinds of enemies and debris, as well as hearts. Keep an eye out for them and collect them to replenish your HP while avoiding the nasty enemies.
How to Kill Lord Jabu-Jabu By Using His Attacks Against Him
The evil Lord Jabu-Jabu has three main attacks, which get more frantic and dangerous as the fight goes on. Thankfully, with a few sneaky tricks, you can use these against him.
Sucking: In one of his most damaging attacks, the giant fish starts sucking in air, water, and everything that is in his vicinity. If you don’t swim and jump away fast enough (those flippers are golden here), you’ll land in his belly in a true throwback toOcarina of Time.

While swimming and jumping away from the fish, make sure to drop a Bombfish for Lord Jabu-Jabu to suck up. It will explode in his mouth, stunning him for a moment.
When he is stunned, turn into your Swordfighter Form and slash at him while you may. Note that the arrows won’t work in the water, so swim over to him quickly. But watch out for his next attack.
Spewing: Once he recovers, he’ll start spewing out water and everything from inside his belly, including swaths of enemies. These get more dangerous as the fight goes on.
Make sure to steer extra clear of the jellyfish which electrocute Zelda, deeming her incapacitated for a long time. Avoid the enemies and keep dropping Bombfish.
Thrashing and chomping: In his next attack, Lord Jabu-Jabu starts circling the entire arena, chomping at everything that gets in his way. He’s not picky about what he bites down on, so make sure to leave Bombfish in his track. Should you find yourself behind him, you can also turn into Swordfighter Form and start slashing away.
