Lynels are easily the most challenging enemies in the game. Referred to as Fire Cats in the booklet, these wolves charge up at Link and deal some massive damage, and once they start pounding him it's hard to get them off. Defend with the shield and run up for some quick slices to finish them off. Beware, as only the Mirror Shield (Lv. 3) can block their spears. They have a rather good sense of aim with their spears as well, so watch out. | |||

Lynels in ''Oracle of Ages'' are identical to their ''Oracle of Seasons'' counterparts. They are found exclusively within the [[Sea of No Return]], located just outside the entrance to the [[Ancient Tomb]]. | |||

Lynels in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'' can be found on [[Death Mountain]], in both [[Hyrule]] and [[Lorule]]. They are easily the most dangerous enemy, as they deal four whole hearts of damage per hit. The best way to defeat them is to use the [[Ice Rod]] to stun them, then go over and slash away with the [[Captain's Sword]] or [[Master Sword]]. | |||
