;Hardhat Beetle: Despite the name, these guys look more like walking jellyfish wearing blue or red helmets. The blue ones in the Tower of Hera can knock you back when you hit them, which could result in you falling to a lower floor. The hammer will not make them knock you back, however. Take two to three sword hits to kill. The red Hardhat Beetles found in the lower levels of the Ice Ruins will knock you back into a bottomless pit, so try to knock them off the platforms with the fire rod or Hookshot.

;Terrorpins: What a great pun. Terrorpins are semi-adorable red tortoises found in the Tower of Hera. The sword can't penetrate their tough carapaces, so flip them with the hammer and slash at their vulnerable underbellies.

;Mini-Moldorm: Little wormy beasties that scuttle around frenziedly. They aren't too much of a threat, although it is said that there are larger variants... Found in the Tower of Hera and Skull Woods.
 
;Ball 'n' Chain Trooper: A high-ranking soldier. They like to swing a ball 'n' chain around their heads to prevent Link from using melee attacks, although he can just use the bow. WATCH OUT! After a Ball 'n' Chain Trooper is hit, it will swing its weapon towards you, so run to the left or right immediately after attacking!
 
;Moblin: A porcine bandit, once a member of Ganon's forces. It backs away slowly, throwing spears. Keep your shield up!
 
;Shield Moblin: A Moblin bearing a shield. This shield will block all frontal attacks, but it can be stolen with the Hookshot or burnt with the fire rod. They lack a projectile attack, and are quite sluggish, so focus on the Spear Moblins before focusing on these chaps.
 
;Taros: A bovine mercenary that was once a member of Ganon's forces. The weak blues carry a spear, whereas the tougher red ones use tridents. Like Sword Soldiers, they can block incoming sword attacks with their weapon, so try stunning them first or using the bow. They're not too dangerous, but can be infuriating when accompanied by a tougher enemy such as a Hinox.
 
;Hinox: A bomb-throwing cyclops found throughout Lorule. It's dangerous to attack them, as they do a lot of damage, and take ten sword hits to kill. Try strafing around them and attacking when they charge. If surrounded by a Hinox and some smaller, quicker enemies like Ropas or Snapdragons, it's best to just run. There is also a variant on Death Mountain that throws snowballs.
 
;Ropa: A creature not unlike a land-dwelling sea anemone, with lots of yellow tentacles. They're surprisingly strong, and will do high amounts of damage as they hop towards you, so attack constantly with the sword - they die in about 4 slices.
