Miniblin: Difference between revisions

'''Miniblins''' are recurring enemies and members of the [[Moblin]] race in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. They run around almost aimlessly trying to attack [[Link]] with their spears, pitchforks, and other various weapons. They are usually seen in hordes or packs, and are found in almost every dungeon.

==''The Wind Waker''==

These little creatures like to poke you with little trident-like weapons, and aren't very much of a threat, but they are very annoying. Following a stab at Link, the Miniblin will guffaw allowing Link to strike back and defeat it. The [[All-Purpose Bait]] distracts the Miniblins as they swarm around it, allowing Link to escape and proceed freely. The most effective methods to dispatch Miniblins are through the [[Spin Attack]], [[Hurricane Spin]], or [[Skull Hammer]].

==''Phantom Hourglass''==

Much like the Miniblins in ''The Wind Waker'', these creatures are more of an annoyance than a threat. They can be found almost everywhere, but mostly on the [[Isle of Gust]]. Defeating a group of Miniblins will conjure a [[Rupee|Red Rupee]]. Sporadically, they will board the [[S.S. Linebeck]]. Defeating them will generate a random amount of rupees.

==''Spirit Tracks''==

The Miniblins are at their most cunning in ''Spirit Tracks''. They attack Link's [[Spirit Train]] in [[Tank]]s and [[Cannon Boat]]s. During one occurrence, when Link is transporting [[Carben]] to the [[Ocean Sanctuary]], Miniblins board his Spirit Train initiating a duel with a [[Big Blin]] as their leader. A mini-game in the [[Pirate Hideout]] revolved around dispatching the maximum number of Miniblins in the allotted time.

Occasionally, Miniblins are seen on top of [[Armos]], which is most common in the [[Tower of Spirits]]. Link cannot reach this Miniblins normally, but when he is standing on top of the phantom's shield, Link will be able to strike these higher Miniblins.
