Silver Lynels are the most lethal of all | Silver Lynels are the most lethal of all [[Lynel]]s found in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'s'' standard mode. They are bolstered by [[Ganon]]'s evil magic like the other silver variations of enemies, such as the [[Silver Moblin]]. Usually mistaken as a [[White-Maned Lynel]], despite the color pattern on the silver one being inverted from the White-Maned Lynel. As Link progresses through the game, many of the Lynels across Hyrule will be upgraded to the Silver kind. They have a chance to drop rare materials, including [[Star Fragment (Breath of the Wild)|Star Fragments]]. | ||

Silver-Maned Lynels have | Silver-Maned Lynels have 5000 HP, making them even more tough than [[White-Maned Lynel]]s. 18 of the 22 Lynels in the game will eventually evolve into Silver Lynels. | ||

Watch out if it roars; it will charge up and do an explosive attack in a very wide area around it. Here, you can either run as fast as you can away, get a quick head-shot to stun the Lynel, or parry its attack. If this attack lands, it will be devestating, even with most good armour. A good tactic to take one down is to use a powerful bow and a lot of arrows, and to just keep shooting it in the head until it dies, since most of its attacks are charge attacks that can be canceled if you hit him in the head. Attempting to shoot a Lynel from a distance is usually a very poor idea, as it will shoot elemental arrows at you, including [[Shock Arrow]]s, which afflict critical damage, and if more than one projectile hits at once, [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]] may just die outright on the spot. | ||
All Lynels are impervious to elemental damage, but will usually stop at their tracks if there's fire on their path. | All Lynels are impervious to elemental damage, but will usually stop at their tracks if there's fire on their path. | ||
Another very worthwhile tactic is to equip a very strong heavy weapon and a bow that fires multiple arrows. Use the bow to cancel its attacks and stun it with a face shot, then run up to it as fast as you can. Run behind it, and mount the Lynel. You have a brief window of attack, so mash the attack button. The type of weapon does not affect the speed of attack, and the weapon itself does not take durability damage. With this tactic, you can deal tons of damage from a powerful two-handed weapon, and never have to worry about durability loss or breakage. This also is relatively safe, because face shots are made easier with the multiple arrows firing off at once. | Another very worthwhile tactic is to equip a very strong heavy weapon and a bow that fires multiple arrows.

If you have difficulty stunning the Lynel with a bow, another valid strategy is to equip a heavy-hitting, durable weapon, and to perform a [[Perfect Dodge]], allowing Link to deal significant damage to the Lynel, though not as efficiently as when using the other strategies. | |||
