The bokoblins sucked, but they didn't bother me half as much as everything else in SS did. Considering it took 5 years to make i want to know just how laid back Nintnedo was with designing the enemies etc in SS, even the snail type creatures (didnt care enough to learn the names) looked goofy as hell, particularly the way they moved. The Deku Babas were the only enemies to come off with any kind of credibility in SS and even then it felt as if the strategy to take them out from the old games was completely lost.
Also yeah with the Technoblins, i DID slash at them correctly only to be electrocuted, i just resorted to blowing them up or shooting them with arrows.
