Lynels make their debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. They continuously send out sword beam projectiles toward [[Link]]. They are found across the northwestern section of the Overworld. They come in two color variations; red and blue. The blue Lynels have twice as much health and deal twice as much damage than the red Lynels.

Lynels appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'' as some of the strongest enemies in the game. There are many different types, each progressively getting stronger ranging from the standard Red-Maned Lynel to the deadly [[Silver Lynel]]. A good strategy is to stay close to them, as the [[Shock Arrow]]s, [[Fire Arrow]]s, or [[Ice Arrow]]s the Lynel shoot are hard to dodge and do massive damage. Execute perfect dodges, and unleash flurry attacks on the Lynel to eventually defeat them. Alternatively, if you have the time you can either shoot its face or dodge its charge attack and mount it to get some hits in that do not damage your weapon at all. Additionally, you can use [[Urbosa's Fury]] to stun the Lynel and enable you to mount it.

The more [[Scaling Points]] one gets, the stronger the Lynels will spawn. For instance, the Lynels at the North Tabantha Snowfield will turn from [[White-Maned Lynel]]s to [[Silver Lynel]]s. However, some Lynels remain the same throughout the game, like the Lynels at Hyrule Castle and the Lynel of [[Ploymus Mountain]].

Lynels are largely passive unless Link proves a threat to them. As such, in the early game, Lynels may choose not to engage Link unless attacked.

*In spite of being considerably more harmful and dangerous than [[Hinox]]es, [[Molduga]]s and [[Stone Talus]]es, Lynels are not included in the overworld mini-bosses qualifier like the other three, nor slaying them all award any medals from [[Kilton]]. In some cases, the most powerful species of Lynels are more difficult to kill than some of the Blights or even [[Calamity Ganon]].

**Unlike bosses, however, they are vulnerable to [[Ancient Arrow]]s. One hit from an Ancient Arrow vaporises them, leaving no trace or drops.
