The Bokoblins in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' come in two variants: Red and Purple. The two variants are mostly identical, the only major difference being that the Red variety can withstand much more damage than their Purple counterparts. | The Bokoblins in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' come in two variants: Red and Purple.

==''Tears of the Kingdom''== | |||
{{quote|This common species is a nuisance all over Hyrule. While not very clever, they are at least intelligent enough to hunt beasts and grill the meat for food. They are sometimes seen marching in groups. If they come at you, watch out for their sharp horns!|In-game description}} | |||
Bokoblins in ''Tears of the Kingdom'' come in different varieties, such as the basic Red Bokoblin and the [[Stalkoblin]]. They can be found all over Hyrule, but tend to gather at various [[Monster Camp|Camps]], with other enemies like the [[Moblin#Tears of the Kingdom|Moblin]] and [[Lizalfos#Tears of the Kingdom|Lizalfos]]. They can now also be encountered in either heavily fortified monster camps or in patrols where they are led by a variant of [[Boss Bokoblin]], attacking in formation until the leader is killed. All variants of Bokoblin are often seen carrying basic unfused and fused weapons, usually fused with crude materials such as rocks and mushrooms. Any variant of Bokoblin can also be encountered on horseback, occasionally riding on wild animals, stationed atop a [[Battle Talus]], in pairs of one on horseback towing a wagon carrying another Bokoblin, and carrying crude backpacks filled with any variety of materials, from meat, to arrow-fusion materials, to [[Zonaite]] if encountered in the Depths. Any variant of Bokoblin can also be encountered clad in rock armor, which will have to be broken with a blunt weapon in order for them to receive damage properly. If they eat any piece of fruit or meat, they will instantly regain 100 percent of their health. Standard Bokoblins will often drop [[Bokoblin Fang]] and [[Bokoblin Horn]] when defeated. When [[Kilton]] moves to [[Tarrey Town]], a Bokoblin of any type is his first request for his Monster Collection, as per the [[A Monstrous Collection I]] sidequest. | |||
===Blue Bokoblin=== | |||
{{main|Blue Bokoblin}} | |||
A stronger variation of the standard red Bokoblin, often found in archer positions. Upon death, they drop two-pronged [[Blue Bokoblin Horn]]s. | |||
===Black Bokoblin=== | |||
{{main|Black Bokoblin}} | |||
Among the most dangerous type of Bokoblins, will often execute a charge attack with their horns facing towards Link. Upon death, they drop three-pronged [[Black Bokoblin Horn]]s and with a chance to drop [[Bokoblin Guts]]. | |||
===Silver Bokoblin=== | |||
{{main|Silver Bokoblin}} | |||
The strongest variation of Bokoblins found in the game. Upon death, they drop whimsical-appearing [[Silver Bokoblin Horn]]s and [[Bokoblin Guts]]. | |||
===Stalkoblin=== | |||
{{main|Stalkoblin}} | |||
This variant of Bokoblin only appears at night or in the Depths, and behaves very similarly to creatures such as [[Stalchild]]ren from previous games. They only have 1 HP, but when struck, their heads will drop to the ground, and will need to be destroyed in order to be fully rid of Stalkoblin. They often appear in groups of 2 or 3. Like other Stal enemies in ''Tears of the Kingdom'', they can be instantly defeated if Link shoots or throws a [[Dazzlefruit]] anywhere in their range. | |||
