Say hello to the ultimate challenge of the game. There is another King Gleeok in the game guarding a sage's will but this one in particular is found in a part of the depths known as the Gleeok Nest.

On top of being able to freeze you, shock you, or set you on fire all of the cursed kings attacks reduce your maximum HP and he has multiple phases he'll go through... 5 in fact.

Phase 1 is easy as he just flies up in the air and breathes 3 elemental beams that are deceptively fast and good at tracking.
Phase 2 sees him stay grounded as he throws in some tail whips and does a few elemental shots, fire leaves a lingering hitbox, shock does an AOE, and Freeze is the worst as it does both (although it does miniscule damage)
Phase 3 it takes back to the air and spams the elemental shots like a bullet hell.
Phase 4 has it mix everything it has together in an attempt to murder you.
Phase 5 it says screw this and flies so absurdly high up you have no realistic way to reach it. It will then cause massive storms of ice and lightning and occasionally even a nuclear bomb. You're supposed to use these to ascend high enough to reach Gleeok and knock him out of the sky but that's much easier said than done, and the patched the multi spring doesn't work in the depths.

Advice I have for this fight.

-Have over 50 arrows in your storage.
-Cook lots of food to either fully recover or have a heart restoration effect (sundelions are your friend)
-MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A SNIPER BOW OF SOME SORT, preferably the Gerudo Bow
-If you have any Gibdo Bones save them for the last phase. A gerudo bow with a gibdo bone arrow will do just enough damage to one shot each head if a headshot is landed.

After blasting it out from high in the sky... cave? It'll fall so far that it actually takes fall damage at this point make absolutely sure you kill it or you're gonna hate yourself.

With that done congratulations you've dealt with the most chaotic boss fight in the game. Also you'll get the twilight princess hat even though the Midna Helmet is superior at least it's a tangible reward.
