Bokoblin

The Bokoblin is the weakest ordinary monster you will meet. With 13 health almost any weapon removes it in a hit or two, so it is dangerous only in numbers or when it has a bow. Shoot or rush archers first, then take the rest one at a time.

Where to find them

Bokoblins gather around cooking fires in camps, wander roads and fields, and appear on horseback in some areas. The plain form turns up in nearly every region, so you will meet it early and often.

How to beat it

Take out archers first

Spot any Bokoblin holding a bow and drop it with an arrow or a quick dash before it starts shooting.

Use the camp against them

Many camps hold explosive barrels or a wooden lookout. Shoot a barrel or topple the lookout to hit several at once.

Finish the rest in melee

One decent hit is enough. Watch for Bokoblins that kick a Remote Bomb away, and use arrows or thrown objects against those.

Drops

  • Bokoblin Horn
  • Bokoblin Fang

The tougher forms also drop Bokoblin Guts, and Silver Bokoblins can drop gemstones.
