Vaati Transfigured Boss Guide
Vaati Transfigured is the second form of the final boss fight in Minish Cap. The second round will take more precise aim and tenacity to foil. This guide will cover the strategy needed to beat Vaati Transfigured.
How to Beat Vaati Transfigured
The second form of Vaati is tougher than the previous, so make sure you break those pots to collect hearts, fairies, and what have you before you even battle his first form. For his encore performance, Vaati transforms into a floating eyeball with eight smaller eyeballs surrounding him.
Shoot the smaller eyes with your Bow until four eyeballs pop out. Just like the previous form, Vaati moves around quickly, so your aim has to be good. He often moves around in a diamond-like formation, so anticipate where he will go to line up your shot. After hitting the four correct eyes, create four replicates in the same formation and attack them. You can only attack the red-lit eyes, NOT the light blue eyes. After a few hits, the eyes will drop, leaving him exposed, and you can attack the main eye for a short period of time.
After each successful attack on his central eye, Vaati will get faster, and his attacks for constant. He throws out purple spikes and lightning attacks in this phase, so you not only have to watch the lightning but be careful where you walk/dodge because you could hurt yourself on the spikes. The purple spikes on the ground house hearts and more arrows, so collect them if necessary.
After a few rounds of attacking his main eye, Vaati will go down, but that doesn't mean he's out for the count.
