Description
The largest monster to make its home in Hyrule, the Hinox lives primarily in forested areas. A keen awareness of your surroundings is paramount when facing one, as Hinox are known for tearing entire trees from the ground and using them as weapons. Black Hinox wear metal greaves that conduct electricity rather well. A deft hand can steal weapons off the necklaces they wear.

Black Hinoxes are the strongest versions of Hinoxes found in Breath of the Wild. They wear greaves on their legs, similar to Blue Hinoxes, but their metal composition makes Black Hinoxes vulnerable to Electricity-based attacks.[5] Most of the time, they will be asleep, but they will wake up and begin to attack Link if he disturbs them.[6] Like all other Hinoxes, their eyes are vulnerable to attacks. When defeated, they drop Hinox Toenails, Hinox Teeth, Hinox Guts, and a range of Roasted Meats.

As part of "The Three Giant Brothers" Shrine Quest, Link must retrieve an Ancient Orb from each of the three Hinoxes on Mount Taran.[7] The Hinox (Oldest Kin) is a Black Hinox, and it is located in the Rabella Wetlands.[8]

After Link defeats Calamity Ganon for the first time, he will able able to ask Kilton about Hinoxes.[9] If Link kills all of the Hinoxes in Hyrule, including all Black Hinoxes, Kilton will reward him with the Medal of Honor: Hinox. From his research, Kilton determines that each type of Hinox has different dietary preferences.[10]
