[[File:Hinox-botw.jpg|200px|right|A Hinox in Breath of the Wild]] | |||
The Hinox in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'' are mini-bosses that are sprinkled around the world of Hyrule, of which there are forty of them in total. They are usually found sleeping and can be awakened with attacks or loud noise. Like [[Bokoblin]]s and [[Moblin]]s, they're pig-like creatures. They use their large size and fists to hurt [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]]. If Link gets close enough, they will try to punish him by stomping the ground below them. Often they use their environment to their advantage, which can include them uprooting nearby trees and attempting to flatten Link with them. However, they are fairly slow enemies and their moves can be telegraphed quite easily. | The Hinox in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'' are mini-bosses that are sprinkled around the world of Hyrule, of which there are forty of them in total.

Slaying all 40 Hinox in the base game will, after the [[Destroy Ganon]] quest has been completed once, allow Link to receive the [[Medal of Honor: Hinox]] when visiting [[Kilton]]. The award itself serves only for bragging rights. | Slaying all 40 Hinox in the base game will, after the [[Destroy Ganon]] quest has been completed once, allow Link to receive the [[Medal of Honor: Hinox]] when visiting [[Kilton]].

* Hinox are vulnerable to [[Urbosa's Fury]] strikes at a 300 HP damage per strike. As such, it takes 2 strikes to kill a Red Hinox and 2½ strikes for a Blue Hinox, but 3 strikes are not enough to kill a Black Hinox (1000 HP versus 900 HP damage), so it has to be finished with weapons. | *Hinox are vulnerable to [[Urbosa's Fury]] strikes at a 300 HP damage per strike.

* There are no Hinox in either [[Death Mountain (Breath of the Wild)|Death Mountain]] or the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]], implying that they can't tolerate heat. The fact that they can be found at [[Hebra]] but not at the [[Gerudo Highlands]] implies that they may have been driven out of the [[Gerudo (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo province]] altogether by the [[Gerudo]] people. | *There are no Hinox in either [[Death Mountain (Breath of the Wild)|Death Mountain]] or the [[Gerudo Desert (Breath of the Wild)|Gerudo Desert]], implying that they can't tolerate heat.
