Moblins are foot soldiers created in Ganon's image. They are pig-like beasts and are frequent to the games. They were first introduced in The Legend of Zelda and are still making appearances in Skyward Sword.

Appearances

Legend of Zelda

Moblins appeared in two varieties, Orange and Blue. The only difference between the two is that the Orange one requires two hits to defeat, while the Blue one requires three (with the wooden sword). They attack by running into Link and on occasion shoot arrows.

A few Moblins appear in caves and will give Link 10 30 50 100 and 300 Rupees to keep their hiding place hidden.

Adventure of Link

Moblins appear near the beginning of the game in forests and provide ten experience points. They walk into link while cosnstently jabing there spears.

Moblins appear in the Dark World.

Oracle of Ages

Oracle of Seasons

Four Swords

Wind Waker

Moblins appear most notably inside the Forsaken Fortress and patrol the fortress. The first time Link enters the fortress, he is without a sword. Due to this, if a Moblin catches him, they will throw him in prison should they see him. They are quite stupid and can be easily fooled by hiding beneath a barrel. The second time through the Moblins won't be frightened to attack the young hero with their spears. Moblin Spears are among the weapons that Link can use to fight with.

Moblins also appear in Hyrule Castle frozen in time before Link draws the Master Sword. After doing so, they will begin to patrol the castle and will attack Link.

They drop Joy Pendants upon defeat for the Spoils Bag.

Minish Cap

Despite being made in Ganon's image, Ganon does not appear in the Minish Cap. This makes the Moblins' appearance in the game peculiar. They appear partway through the game and frequent the overworld. Two variants appear, Spear Moblins and Bow Moblins. Spear Moblins will charge at Link, and Bow Moblins will fire arrows. They can be easily defeated by stunning them with the Boomerang and then slashing them with Link's sword.

Skyward Sword

Moblins return in Skyward Sword and their appearance has changed quite a bit. Now they are fat, red, and are bigger than Link himself. These Moblins hold a wooden or metal square-shaped shield. The wooden varient's shield can be cut into very small pieces leaving the Moblin vulnerable to sword attacks. Also, Link can dash into the shield causing him to jump over the Moblin, enabling him to slash away at his behind. Moblins are a very common enemy when revisiting Faron Woods.

Wooden Shield Moblin

Link can use his sword to chop the Moblin's Shield into small pieces. When its shield is too small, The Moblin will throw it away and begin to fight without a shield. Now, slash away at its big red belly until the Moblin goes down. Alternatively, Link can dash straight at the Moblin, which will cause Link to jump over and attack from its rear.

Metal Shield Moblin

Link must dash over the Moblin's shield to attack it. Then, slash away at its exposed rear. This type of Moblin is commonly found on narrow ledges, where one wrong move could force the player to restart the battle.
