How do I defeat Beamos?

Question

I'm wandering around, lost, in Lanayru Mining Facility. As I was blundering about, I took a (horizontal) swipe at a Beamos and surprisingly, did some damage. I've also noticed that a targeting arrow appears when I get close. Can I kill these guys? If so, how?

Beamos, from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Answer

The video game rule of vulnerability comes into play here: Hit 'em in the glowy bits. You can never go wrong hitting anything that glows. In this case that means slashing horizontally to cut the blue lines between the "blocks" that make up the body then stabbing the glowing eye. Or just arrow the eye if you have the bow.

The same rule of thumb applies to Armos and Bombos as well.
