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
The ultimate Lynel variant found exclusively in Depths arenas, corrupted by concentrated Gloom energy. Every attack it lands drains Link's maximum hearts rather than just current HP, requiring Sundelion meals to restore. The headshot-mount combat loop remains essential but mistakes are far more punishing. Gloom Lynel Saber Horn is the single highest-damage Fuse material in TotK. Drops also include Dark Clump, Lynel Hoof, and Lynel Guts.
Weakness
Headshot-mount, Sundelion food, gloom resistance
How to Beat Gloom Lynel
Found exclusively in the Depths. Attacks inflict gloom damage that reduces max hearts. Bring Sundelion meals to restore lost hearts. Fight using the same headshot-mount strategy but be more conservative — every hit you take is more punishing. The Gloom Lynel Saber Horn is the single best fusion material in TotK.
