The Silver Lynel are the most lethal of all the Lynel found in Breath of the Wild. They are bolstered by Ganon's evil magic like the other silver variations of enemies, including the Silver Moblin, Lizalfos and Bokoblin. Usually mistaken as a White-Maned Lynel, despite the color pattern on the silver one is inverted from the White-Maned Lynel. One can be found in the Coliseum Ruins south-south-west of the Central Tower. They have a chance to drop Star Fragments.
Strategy
It has the same moveset as the White-Maned Lynel, although it does a lot more damage. Watch out if he roars; he'll charge up and do an explosive attack in a very wide area around him, the best strategy is to just run as fast as you can away, or get a quick headshot to cancel the attack, since if it hits it will most likely kill you outright. A good tactic to take one down is to use a powerful bow and a lot of arrows, just keep shooting it in the head until it dies, since most of his 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, he will shoot elemental arrows at you, including Shock Arrows, which afflict critical damage, and if more than one projectile hits at once, you might die outright on the spot.
