I'm curious. Which enemies drop bombs?

Blue Lynels will sometimes drop them as well. Also, don't forget that if a Dodongo is killed by stunning him instead of feeding two bombs it will also drop bombs when killed.

Gibdos will also drop bombs if memory serves. Or maybe I'm just thinking of the one in level 5 that carries a bomb...

These enemies can drop bombs as of 2.11 beta 10b (99% sure):

-blue octorok
-moblin 2
-lynel 2
-goriya 1
-red darknut
-vire
-gibdo
-red wizzrobe
-vire tribble
-wind wizzrobe
-batrobe
-goriya 3
-leever 3
-octorok 3

Not the red Octorok? I could have sworn...

EDIT: Huh, guess not. I killed no less than 300 red Octoroks (no bombs), then maybe 10 blues and I got a bomb. :shrug:

All the tribble enemies will as well as the bats. That's at least a start. Maybe koopa can give us a list of those too.

As always, don't sue me if this isn't 100% correct, but here goes:

ENEMIES THAT DROP MAGIC
Tektite 2 - Leever 2 - Lynel 1 - Lynel 2 - Red Darknut - Blue Darknut - Octorok on Crack - Gel Tribble - Zol Tribble - Keese Tribble - Vire Tribble - Darknut 3 - Fire Wizzrobe - Wind Wizzrobe - Bat - Batrobe - Stalfos 3 - Mirror Wizzrobe - Goriya 3 - Leever 3

And note that the tribbles almost always drop magic. So if you want to give the player a magic refill, throw a couple of tribbles in a room (conversely, if you don't want to give the player an easy magic fix you'll have to avoid using those enemies).

I think almost all enemies can drop hearts. Peahats are probably the most likely to do so, but some quest makers prefer to avoid these because they can make for boring fights by forcing the player to wait until they're completely stopped (unless you use the fire boomerang).
