Talk:Enemies in Breath of the Wild

Giant Moblin
While the game isn't out and we don't know much about it, I think the Giant Moblin thing is probably a boss instead of an enemy, I came to this conclusion based on it's size, and it's eyeball weak point. I could be wrong but shoudn't we wait untill we find out if it's an enemy or boss before listing it, simmilar to the giant Stal thing. Gopherdude12 (talk) 15:33, 3 December 2016 (UTC)


 * The "giant Stal thing" should be listed here as well. 15:56, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

Electric and Thunder Wizzrobes
Whats the differences? The Wizzrobe that uses the Lightning Rod can both use electric attacks and summons thunder storms. Wolfgerlion64 (talk) 20:40, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

Variant versions
This may sound confusing, but when we are listing enemies in places for this game, it can be a bit confusing because, when a certain area is visited early in the game, it will show the weaker variant of the enemies first (Example: Visiting a Bokoblin campsite which have only Red ones, but later as you made plenty progress in the game, The camp is visited again and you find Black or Silver Bokoblin this time). I have visited areas that suppose to have Blue-maned Lynels but when I visited the areas again, they were Silver. Would be best to just but the name of the enemies in One word when we are listing enemies in places of BotW? -- Wolfgerlion64 (talk) 02:15, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Yeah, this is something that hasn't been talked about much. We should definitely be listing the general enemy instead of every variant, which is a dynamically changing mechanic. -- Hylian pi (talk) 05:39, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * I disagree completely. What we should be listing is the original enemy variants that spawn at a location. For example, the skull camp on the Great Plateau should have Bokoblin and Blue Bokoblin listed, as both spawn there. Also, there are definitely areas where the Black variants will spawn, even when very little progress has been made in the game, such as Hebra Mountains, Hyrule Castle or the Coliseum Ruins so these are the variants that should be noted on those pages. 19:04, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * But when I visited the Great Plateau again for some items I saw Silver Bokoblins there now. Mostly every bokoblin campsite have red and blue ones, but then when u revisit areas, the variants have changed -- Wolfgerlion64 (talk) 19:43, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Link Lab is correct: we should make an effort to note the actual type that initially appears in a location. To do otherwise would be disingenuous. This only means we'll have to put in a little more effort to verify this, but we will have a staff member (perhaps a few) put in the work to check. If we want to make note of stronger types appearing after the proper conditions, we may, but we should absolutely keep it as factual as possible. TriforceTony (talk) 20:41, 3 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Apologies for not realizing that some enemies start at a later variety. We simply need to work with the Zelda Maps team, as I'm pretty sure they have all this info right now. -- Hylian pi (talk) 02:28, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Wolves
I know we aren't counting creatures, but when Wolves/Coyotes (and bears if I rember correctly) attack Link the eney battle music plays. Should we count them then? Madmoblin (talk) 02:11, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
