Drops
When the White Boe is defeated, one of 16 slots is picked at random, so each slot is a 6.25% chance.
| Drop | Chance |
|---|---|
 Green Rupee | 12.5% |
 Blue Rupee | 6.25% |
| Depends on Link's form | 12.5% |
| Bomb (5) | 6.25% |
 Magic Jar | 6.25% |
 Recovery Heart | 6.25% |
| What Link is short of | 6.25% |
| Nothing | 43.75% |
Some of them use this table instead:
| Drop | Chance |
|---|---|
| Green Rupee | 6.25% |
| Recovery Heart | 12.5% |
| Magic Jar | 6.25% |
| Depends on Link's form | 6.25% |
| Nothing | 68.75% |
Link's form decides: 10 Arrows as Link, a Recovery Heart with the Zora Mask on, a Magic Jar with the Goron Mask on, and a Green Rupee with the Deku Mask or the Fierce Deity's Mask on.
What Link is short of decides, checked in this order: a Fairy at 1 heart or less, Recovery Heart ×3 at 3 hearts or less, Recovery Heart ×1 at 5 hearts or less, a Magic Jar (large) with magic below half, 30 Arrows with fewer than 6 arrows, Bomb (5) with fewer than 6 bombs, and a Red Rupee with fewer than 11 Rupees. Otherwise nothing.
Arrows need the Hero's Bow and bombs need a Bomb Bag; magic needs the magic meter. Without them that slot drops nothing. A Recovery Heart at full health becomes a Green Rupee.
The arrow that defeats it decides the drop, whatever the slot: a Fire Arrow gives 30 Arrows, an Ice Arrow a Recovery Heart, and a Light Arrow a Purple Rupee.
Where to find it
Official guide
A white, fluffy monster. Like the Black Boe it is weak, but it appears in groups, so being surrounded is a nuisance.
This is the polar version of the Black Boe. They disguise themselves as snowflakes, but their glowing red eyes should give them away every time. They are easy to defeat except when they attack in swarms.
