The Best Hinox Cheese Strategy in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
After coming face to face with a Hinox in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you will be able to defeat them easily by going full Soulsborne and staying between their legs through the whole fight, all while continuously hitting either their back or their unprotected heel.
You will be able to stay in position throughout the battle by circling the boss clockwise as they move.
Although different than the usual aim for the eye and shot method, this strategy works like a charm, as by staying between their legs, the Hinoxes will be unable to hit you with their swings. This strategy will also allow you to defeat the bosses without the need for expending arrows, which is great (especially for those in the early portion of the game).
Overall, the only danger when using this strategy will lie in their jumping AoE attack, which can be easily telegraphed and avoided by running in the opposite direction before running right back into position.

Do Hinox Respawn?
Like all open-world enemies in Tears of the Kingdom, all Hinoxes will respawn after a Blood Moon.
