White-Maned Lynel

Maren's Tip

Every enemy type has a weakness. Fire enemies melt with ice, ice enemies with fire. Gibdos are vulnerable to fire and lightning — stock those arrows!

Description

An elite Lynel with a white mane, marking it among the most dangerous overworld enemies in Hyrule. Its attack speed, damage output, and HP are all substantially higher than Blue-Maned variants. Every element of Lynel combat — perfect dodge timing, parry windows, bow-while-mounted shots — must be executed cleanly. White-Maned Lynel Bow and Guts are the finest non-boss weapon materials available.

Weakness

Headshot stun, mount attacks, Ancient Blade

How to Beat White-Maned Lynel

Very high HP and devastating attacks. Master the headshot-mount cycle. Bring high-damage fused weapons for ground combos. Its three-hit combo can one-shot if not dodged. Lynel masks no longer work at this tier.
