In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', Darknuts come in several varieties, which are color-coded according to their strength. Some of the stronger Darknuts have capes, which are animated through the game's physics engine. All Darknuts have somewhat impregnable armor that can be removed either through repeated damage or through cutting the straps holding the armor in place. | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', Darknuts come in several varieties, which are color-coded according to their strength.

However, unlike in ''The Wind Waker'', Darknut armor in ''The Minish Cap'' cannot be removed or destroyed. | Darknuts are some of the toughest enemies Link faces in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]''.The black versions have the most health and use a 'tornado thrust' attack in which they stab forwards whilst unleashing a powerful rotary energy in their sword.
