Hunting Hinox Tonails can be a pain in Tears of the Kingdom. These rare (and disgusting) monster materials are required to upgrade certain sets of armor. To get Hinox Toenails, you’ll need to track down and defeat world bosses called Hinox — giant one-eyed monsters that become increasingly difficult the more you explore the world. They spawn in specific locations, and respawn after the Blood Moon, so you can fight them over and over in your endless quest for more of their gross toenails. If you need Hinox locations, we’ve got a map showing all their locations below.
