There are three primary phases in the fight against Master Kohga, but they all connect to each other in various ways. The order of the phases is linear, so you can easily track which mechanics you need to follow at certain times. You need to have a bow and arrows ready for this boss fight. Here are all three phases and how to finish them.
1;During the first phase, Master Kohga will have a barrier that you can break, so attacking him with our damage won't work out in your favor. You need to watch for Master Kohga to bring a rock over his head, at which point you need to shoot him in the head with your bow. This will cause the boulder to drop upon his head, leaving him vulnerable. You need to then deal damage to Master Kohga as quickly as possible while his barrier is down. The fight will continue in this exact order until Master Kohga reaches half health. Then you can move on to phase two. 2:Master Kohga will now have two rocks floating nearby him. When he puts a boulder above his head, shoot Master Kohga with your bow, and he'll fall to the ground, where you can now hit him. Attack Master Kohga and continue this trend until his shield is back up. 3:During the third phase, Master Kohga will put back up his barrier. You don't need your bow this time; instead, ready the Magnesis ability and prepare to grab the metal balls that will appear above his head. Knock the metal ball down onto him, which will deal a massive amount of damage. 4: the next part is a cutscene don't worry you won the battle. 5: Goodluck and follow MAG14251. any questions in comments
