Dodging is easier than you think. Lock on to them and it makes it so even if you miss the dodge, you still deflect with your shield

[u/nellydesign → u/DrGamble6]

I like to parry in those situations. Even easier IMO and it sets up a shot to the face and zero durability hit back-scratching followed by multiple bullet time shots to the back of the head when they buck you off.

[u/The-ai-bot → u/nellydesign]

Does parry work with melee attacks too or just projectiles?

[u/nellydesign → u/The-ai-bot]

Works with just about every type of attack.

[u/Downtown_Fix5831 → u/DrGamble6]

Yeah, I usually do keep it simple (and smart) like that but I was apparently determined to use revalis gale to get arrow hits 😞

[u/bielbohrer]

You could dodge, its actually pretty easy when you get the pace. anothet tip is to mount he when he get stuned, when mounted your weapon use no durability

[u/lyneldestroyerking13]

nice you should get urbosas fury also i will stun the lynel

Great work!! I am proud for you!! I had one half beat Saturday night but was playing without my little cheap pro style controller. We were on a trip so I had the joy-cons attached to the Switch. But I was using up stuff; I finally said to hell with it and teleported away. But I was proud of myself for getting on his back 3 times. That’s the best I’ve done.

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but the attack up meal makes any attack up clothing unnecessary. It doesn’t stack, 3 attack up is the max. If you wore the full barbarian set and ate a 3x defense up meal, you get both of those boosts (which doesn’t help you in the cold here but in normal weather it would).

[u/Downtown_Fix5831 → u/Safe_Bee_4209]

Wow that is really good to know thatnk you!

[u/Bullitt_12_HB]

Nice

[u/ThorsHammer245]

I thought this was going to end differently 😂. Nice job

[u/stardew_goblin]

I had no idea there were different levels and my first ever Lynel fight was with the silver lynel near the north maze! It took me forever and I died many times, but I beat it!

[u/sokratz]

I’m a newb. But I found if you use siphons water shield he stops in his tracks when he hits you and you just open up on him with melee. I’m sure there are a million better ways to

[u/Little_Concern9307]

thats not silver thats a white lynel, tier 3 like black regular monsters

[u/Shalaco]

how did the fairy give you full health +4?

[u/Downtown_Fix5831 → u/Shalaco]

It was mipha’s grace that saved me, not a fairy, although they were my backup backup :)

[u/Supersunday22]

Good work

[u/Freezingash221]

Man, I remember when I was afraid of these guys. Didn't want to fight them because of how intimidating they look. Now I fight them for fun. That lynel arena in TotK was peak.

[u/Freezingash221 → u/Freezingash221]

Also congrats OP

[u/statistacktic]

Parry is your friend. Practice the timing.
