When you begin you’re on the top floor. Work your way down to the 1st floor so you are 1 floor above the Eighth Colossus. Look down and shoot him with an arrow to get his attention. He will shoot fireballs at you. While easily avoided initially, these also leave a lingering cloud that can be very damaging so stay clear.

Eventually, as you run around the first floor, it will begin to climb to reach you. This is your chance. Once it has started climbing shoot one of its legs. This will stun the creature and open an attack on another limb. Shoot another leg and it will fall down to the ground. You can safely jump down from the first floor without taking too much damage.

Once it falls, the two weak points on its stomach are revealed. Take them both out repeating the steps above to defeat this Eighth Colossus.
