Octoroks have numerous varieties in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild]]'', based off their various past behaviors. All Octoroks have a very long range that they can spit their rocks, which they do in a large arc. Once again, Shield Bashing is necessary to bounce the rocks back to the Octorok. They typically hide under some type of object with the aide of a sucker over their mantles, and will poke their heads out into the open if the object is destroyed or disturbed. When they spot Link, they typically make a loud, distinct squelching noise that sounds similar to a kiss. When defeated, Octoroks typically give a fish (regardless of location) along with body parts that include eyes, arms (erroneously called tentacles), or their inflatable sac, itself called an [[Octo Balloon]]. According to developmental materials, in-game files, and their order in the [[Hyrule Compendium]], the basic form of Octorok is the '''Water Octorok''', which is blue, solely found in bodies of water, and has a tuft of reeds on its head. They appear in the ocean and in various rivers, and as such appear in more regions than the other types. Water Octoroks cannot move through the water, and will inflate and float above the surface if it rains, resembling the octoballoon from ''A Link to the Past''. While they are only shown with reeds on their head in the final version, concept art comically showed a rubber duck as an alternative.

In addition to the Water Octorok, some have similar behavior to the ground-based ones in ''Skyward Sword'', with plant-hiding ones called [[Forest Octorok]]s being green and rock-hiding ones called [[Rock Octorok]]s being gray, with the latter type being able to use their mouths as a powerful vacuum. This vacuuming sucks up rocks for them to spit in a fiery blast, but can also suck up equipment, which can actually be used to replace rusty weapons with better ones or blow the Octorok up with a bomb. A type closely resembling the Water Octorok called the [[Snow Octorok]] lives in snow and is able to tunnel through it to approach Link. There is also a rare golden type called a [[Treasure Octorok]] that disguises itself as a buried treasure chest, and dashes around erratically if approached. They can be told apart from real buried treasure chests in that theirs do not react to [[Magnesis]]. Treasure Octoroks give varying amounts of Rupees, being among the few enemies in the game to do so.
