The Hinox in ''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. 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.

Hinox may wear wooden or metallic shin guards, and the former can be set on fire. They may wear one or two shin guards, but never two of the same material. The shin guards prevent Link from striking its legs when it's standing, so it's recommended to either burn the wooden ones, or strike the Hinox once it's sitting down on the floor.

They may sport melee weapons of many types that they wear as jewelry (often a sword + spear + two-handed weapon), though some Hinox may also wear [[Ancient Orb]]s as well in the same fashion.


Hinox can be stunned by attacking their eye. However, after about half of the Hinox health has been drained, it will begin to use its hand to protect its eye when aimed at. As such, the player must wait for the Hinox to attack for them to uncover their eye.
