  • #botw​​ #breathofthewild​​ #legendofzelda​​ There are many ways to kill lynels, some are common ways, and others aren't. Today, I put together a compilation of some of the methods, and gave each of them a nickname. Let's go!

      So you know how the enemy alert takes a really long time to appear over lynels’ heads even when they’re looking straight at you? So I managed to go into BotW with no concept of these centaur bastards as a thing that exists and my first meeting with one (you can get right up to the one near that first memory you’re guided to) went something like “Enemy? No, not alerting. New friend?? Hello??? Oh shi- Not new friend! NOT NEW FRIEND!”

      I've been playing for years and it took me forever to finally get the hang of killing them. My suggestion is to keep bum rushing that shit and practicing the timings for each different lynel weapon type. Only hard part about that is staying optimistic and not rage quitting because you will die a lot if you aren't used to fighting them. Also u need to find 3 lynels with different weapon types..... which honestly sucks unless you use a map made by someone for all the locations. I personally find the spears the most annoying to fight against because of a jump attack that they have, also the spears honestly aren't that great compared to some other weapons aside from their durability in the savage form. Crushers just take patience because the shockwave lunge attack can be hard to get timing down on and I still keep away from those lynels because for some reason I cannot dodge them for the life of me. A good spot to have a chain of lynels to practice on is in a canyon area near gerudo tower. Pretty sure there are two sword lynels and a spear if I remember correctly.

    • @emeralddarkness
      @emeralddarkness 3 роки тому +2

      Easiest way to take one down is to figure out how to backflip to avoid the attacks. It takes a bit of practice to get the timing down, and some (crusher lynels) imo are easier to parry some of their attacks since there is a shockwave you get too, but the timing is super consistent and once you get the rhythm it's super easy to get a flurry rush on basically every attack. Then you just have to worry about running out of swords XD

    • @rubixtheslime

      Not sure if you already do this, but instead of using normal food, just cook several individual hearty durians. A single cooked hearty durian will completely refill your health. You can actually use any hearty thing, but durians are the most common (and fastest to cook because you don't need to move the cursor)

      If we count the ancient arrow It is the 3 fastest and easiest way

    • @dennisleonardo2992

      Fastest is ancient arrow, then headshot spam with 5x shot savage lynel bows, followed by spin2win
      Most resource efficient method isn't in the vid. That would be doing exclusively perfect parry -> 1 headshot -> mount n' pound -> repeat. That way you're using up 0 durability and only very little (standard-)arrows because most of your damage comes from the mounting. And both hitting while mounting a lynel and perfect parrying consumes no durability whatsoever. Method gets more resource-efficient the stronger your strongest weapon is (damage per hit). So get that atk-UP royal guard claymore or an atk-UP savage lynel crusher to need even less arrows.

    Forgot "The Stealth Killer" that stays out of the lynels sight and takes 20 years to chip away with bombs and arrows 😂
    The boomerang lover was massively intimidating, I always left boomerangs wherever I found them, and now I regret never really trying them lol

    my style: the parry god of lightning
    basically just parry and slap him in the face, using urbosas fury to get a headstart, i also use the bow headshot to cancel his ground slams, lynel really cant do much, ill swap to highest damage weapon for flurries and mounted attacks.
    its not as flashy as the backflip bullet timers i see that do speed kills, but its still quite effective.

    either i’m closest to ‘casual’, or i find a piece of scenery to hide behind and slowly chip away at it with arrows and Urbosa’s Fury while it tries to find who’s shooting at it
