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

Purple Bokoblins are fairly weak, and usually can be defeated quite easily, even with the wooden sword. They are encountered frequently in the Faron Woods area near the beginning of the game. They attack with wooden clubs, but do only a small amount of damage. The best way to defeat them is just slashing them with the [[sword]], but [[bomb]]s, [[arrow]]s and many other items will do just fine. Red Bokoblins act the same and are found in the same areas, but they also can withstand much more damage, including multiple [[Spin Attack]]s. The recommend method of attack is to knock them down with a larger strike, [[Jump Attack]], Spin Attack, or [[Hidden Skills#Back Slice|Back Slice]], and then using the [[Hidden Skills#Ending Blow|Ending Blow]] to finish them off. When in groups, the [[Hidden Skills#Jump Strike|Jump Strike]] will kill them in one hit, and is thus the most useful way to attack a group.
Purple Bokoblins are fairly weak, and usually can be defeated quite easily, even with the wooden sword. They are encountered frequently in the Faron Woods area near the beginning of the game. They attack with wooden clubs, but do only a small amount of damage. They can generally be defeated in 3-4 hits with the wooden sword, and even less than that once a better sword is obtained. Arrows are also effective against them, and they can be stunned with the [[Slingshot]] or [[Gale Boomerang]]. Later in the game, Purple Bokoblins are almost entirely replaced with Red ones.  
 
The Red Bokoblins are very similar to the Purple ones, but have a few important differences, most prominently the fact that they can take much more damage. Some of they also carry wide, one-edged swords instead of wooden clubs, increasing their attack power. Despite their increased durability and attack, the Red Bokoblins have the same simplistic attack patterns as their purple counterparts. The recommend method of killing them is to either get them into a prone position with a larger strike, (such as the Jump Attack, Spin Attack, or the [[Hidden Skills#Back Slice|Back Slice]]) and use the [[Hidden Skills#Ending Blow|Ending Blow]]; stun them with a Shield Attack and then use the [[Hidden Skills#Helm Splitter|Helm Splitter]]; or to put away your sword and use the [[Hidden Skills#Mortal Draw|Mortal Draw]]. All of these attacks will finish them off in one hit. When in groups, it is recommended to use the [[Hidden Skills#Jump Strike|Jump Strike]] (if it has been unlocked) to quickly dispatch or stun most of them.


Bokoblins can be found in the [[Faron Woods]], [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]], [[Hyrule Field]], [[Kakariko Gorge]], [[Cave of Ordeals]], and [[Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)|Hyrule Castle]].
