FOURTEENTH COLOSSUS

You're certainly going to notice some similarities between this one and that other one you fought that looked exactly the same. Fortunately, despite the similar looks of the creatures, the battles are really quite different. Be very careful though, the attacks like the running bodyslam do a lot more damage with this boss than the previous one. You don't have nearly as much leeway when trying to dodge on ground. For this reason, it's a good thing you won't be spending much time on the ground.

Like before you won't see any weak spot on this creature, and since weapons don't have any effect, you'll need to find someother way. The solution is as follows: jump up onto the fallen pillar right beside you when the cutscene triggered at the start of battle. Basically if you face west from near where the boss first appeared and look in that direction, the fallen pillar I'm talking about is the one laying beside the small set of stairs. Jump onto this pillar and then jump northwest and grab onto the nearby ledge. From this ledge jump directly west to an even higher wall, and then make a short jump west again to the platform a few feet lower than this one. Finally you can turn and run south, to jump and grab hold of the vertical pillar from the ledge you're on. Once you manage to climb on top of the pillar, you must then play the waiting game.

Being on top of this tall pillar makes the boss angry, and when he's angry, he rams into things. Make sure you're holding R1 to duck down because the Colossus is going to be ramming this pillar. If he gets bored of ramming it, a couple of arrows anywhere on his body will make him angry again. After ramming it twice, the pillar falls down. It doesn't matter if you fall off since you can climb onto it again when it's on the ground. From the fallen pillar you can now reach the ledge by jumping off of it to the south. Run west along this and jump to the next one, then jump up to the wall. You can jump from the wall, west down to the next ledge and onto a pillar again. I think the need to explain this process in detail has long since passed. Basically you let the pillar fall, then jump and climb to the top of the next one. Repeat this process until you are able to jump and grab that tall boxed structure at the south end.

Since you can't get up it from the side you jumped from, you need to shimmy around to the right side and start jumping up. When you get as high as you can, move over a little bit more to the right. Almost as far as you can go, but not quite. You want to align yourself with the pillar. When you are in position, jump from the ledge in the opposite direction grab the pillar, then climb up. This is the last pillar, just sit on top of it and wait for the Colossus to knock it over. When it falls it will take out the entire wall beside you. This should look familiar as being the same place you entered this area from. On the east wall there is a section that can be sclaed upward. Climb onto the platform above and just wait there, in the middle section. Shoot arrows at the boss if he is ignoring you, but eventually he should ram the support pillars holding this platform up. This of course brings it all down on his head and finally cracks his armour, making him vulnerable on his back.

The battle isn't over yet, but the hard part is. What you need to do now is find one of those pillars you knocked over. Climb up onto it and fire an arrow at the boss to get his attention. Duck down on the pillar using R1 and wait for him to ram it. The pillar has already fallen down so you're not trying to make him knock it over, but you will notice that after he rams it, he is disoriented and immobile for a few seconds. This is when you strike, jump from the pillar onto his back and jam your sword into the symbol. You can keep doing it over and over until he is dead. If you get knocked off, just jump onto one of the fallen pillars again.
