A big tip to make fighting the lynels easier: If you fuse a wing device to your shield it allows you to shield jump higher, which then in turn allows you to use bullet time with your bow. Makes it much easier to hit the lynel weak spots

To get easier headshots, try using keese eyes, due to them having homing they're more likely to beam the lynel in the face.

If you guys are having the issue where you aren't getting double damage with the fused item on the royal guard claymore make sure to fuse the item with the claymore before damaging it.

[@ItsShatter]

That’s strange, I was able to damage and then fuse, but maybe there is a bug that can happen?

[@FrignSkooter]

​@Its Shatter I think it was a bug before, that they patched

[@rxkenshin]

This is false the reason he got 172 is because royal guard claymore property, royal guard weapon will have massive damage increase when the weapon is about to break. My brand new royal guard claymore damage is lesser than biggoron sword, dusk claymore and fierce deity sword.

[@ItsShatter]

@@FrignSkooter I think sometimes when you fuse a weapon it repairs it a little bit, making it no longer “badly damaged”. In that case you need to damage it a little more to get it back to badly damaged.

If I recall correctly there's a lightroot within viewing distance from the upper wall of the coliseum that you can activate to not only have a closer warp point but also to light the area up so you don't need to use brightbloom seeds while fighting. After checking my map it's slightly to the southeast of the coliseum, called Mu-ustust lightroot. It's more to the east than to the south, close to the eastern lower shore of the lake the coliseum is in the middle of.

For lynels, it helps to aim for the beard, lower than the eyes. This seems to consistently stagger them. So try aiming lower then you might otherwise try to. It also gets much easier with multi-shot bows.

[@raulklemm]

for me the best method to mount Lynels is to parry any attack and then aim a shot in the right side of the lynel face, chin level, you will never waste an arrow. only attacks that you have to late parry are the full spin attack and the big explosion. love the video very informative.

[@jgrif7891]

Depending on how froggy you're feeling, you can use the Phantom Ganon set (or radiant set upgraded to level 2 if you're scared) and fuse a Moldoga jaw to your Royal Guard's Claymore. This turns the weapon into a bone weapon for the purpose of scaling. This can be combined with Attack Up (you'll have to eat for it) to edge out Silver Lynel horns as the top damage dealing weapon. I also heard that you can further double the Royal Guard's Claymore damage (regardless fuse, set bonus, etc.) by leaving 1 hit remaining in It's durability. I haven't tried it so I can't confirm that part.

[@johnwatters1496]

I can confirm it does double the damage again on the claymore

Fantastic guide! Didn’t find this until I was further in the game but still immensely helped!

If you fuse a Zonai wing to you shield, you get extra height when jumping it shield surf. It lets you activate the bullet time effect with you bow. Makes the headshots much easier.

[@DragonKnightJin]

Also, I believe you can smack the Royal Guard Claymore into the ground *TWO* more times after it gives the message that it's badly damaged. Which will max out it's attack power, making the fights that much quicker. Just... Gotta make sure you don't spam attack too much and break the thing with a jump strike after the forced dismount.

If you fuse a wing shield to your bow, you can access bullet time while jumping with your shield, it can make it waaaay easier to hit the lynel in the face to stagger it

[@majadanielsson971]

For anyone else struggling with the head shots - use the stairs on either side of the entrance to get some height and fly off to get slow motion aiming. Don’t go all the way up the stairs though as the headshot won’t count or the lynel will disappear, just go up like half way

[@LeoLi-t1i]

you can attach a wing to your shield which will deliver the same effect but you can enter slow motion aiming anywhere you want

[@jraqa]

If you put a stalnox horn on the royal guards claymore you can get it up to 122

[@evil-wombat]

What was TREMENDOUSLY helpful was autobuilding yourself a Z-shaped wooden platform that you could hook over the railing on the "spectator area" and use it to Ascend to higher ground instantly, and bullet-time those bastards from above. This doesn't trigger the "roar" effect because it doesn't touch the ground (?), and you can put it in place before the fight even begins. This was a game changer. Aside from that, I was having a lot of trouble getting the lynels to go down after a headshot, despite the "ding" sound. So I mostly ended up wearing them down with arrows (but the overpowered sword trick came in handy a few times). Thank you for the guide.

[@edosan1068]

pro tip, you get kicked off the back of the lynel after a certain amount of hits. If you still have stamina, you can actually just start aiming with your bow to get into bullet time. You will be able to get a few shots in, which is quite a bit of dmg with a savage lynel bow.

[@Daaboo]

my bow dies before the lynel dies thou.....

[@KazuhiraG]

tip for anyone with bad aim: if you attach a wing device to your shield, and use that shield to Shield-Jump in combat you will gain enough height to enter Bullet-time with you bow. which should give you plenty oppertunity to aim your shots.

[@Tchcnx]

Tip to make fighting the lynels even easier: In brief.....The stairs, use the starirs. There are a couple of stairs around the coliseum, just lure them close to the stairs and you can use them to avoid taking any damage and also take advantage of the height to enter bullet time and get an easy headshot. Repeat the process with each and every Lynel and you're done. Also have a shield ready because if the Lynel starts using the bow, no headshot is going to save you. I'll upload a clip for even more detail. P.S: Nice tutorial 🙌

Tysm for this i coulndt land all three headshots but air time makes it a ton easier😊

If you're far along enough you can use Mineru construct to get air time instead. Using the stairs will trigger Lynels into using their bow and make them impervious to being stunned from a headshot.

Tip: You can also focus mainly on getting hearts and also upgrading the fierce deity armor to get more op.

[@BenjaminSteber]

You can also attach monster eyes to your arrows to increase the odds of a headshot. I don’t know if this clashes with the three arrow burst of the lynel bows though, so you may just want this for single shot arrows. Edit: forget monster eyes. Use rockets. They eat away Lynel armor in a few shots, are an instant snipe and they headshot hard.

To the two guys who commented “Just don’t use it”. The whole thing about Majora’s mask being right outside of the starter area is a problem for a lot of people (me included) because anyone who starts playing the game with already buying the dlc, means that they can basically play the rest of the game without fighting anything, and not having the experience of having to work for the monster masks. On the other hand, it has been 6 years since botw released so I’d say it’s fair game by now

Heres a tip: Make a critical attack meal. After that, go get your claymore Break that claymore Go find a pristine version in the depths. Go find a molduga. Kill said molduga and fuse the jaw to the pristine royal guards claymore. Bring that down to 1 hp (not just badly damaged, it gets an extra buff on the last hit.) Get either bone prof armor set (skeleton or ganon) Now, when you go to fight the lynel, use your attack up meal with the bone up stuff equipped. And use the sword on its back. This does nearly 2000 damage per swing

[@theotherguy4478]

It doesn't come close of doing 2,000 damage per hit. It does 918 damage per hit. The math is (49+32)*2*2*1.05*1.8*1.5=918. The 49 for the claymore is from getting a modifier of +10.

[@-----------g-]

Here's a tip no one has said yet: Stick close to the chest in the centre and strafe around it. It acts as a wall and lynels AI gets confused and any charge attacks will stop right at the treasure chest. Also you don't need to do them all in one go. You can kill one and come back later. Also when you kill one the autosave will take you back to the latest one you are fighting when you die. Ultimately learn the different attacks and use the chest to and multi-shot bows the lynels drop to your advantage.

[@TheSaltAlchemist]

If you want to pack a bit more punch, if you destroy your Royal Guard's Claymore it can respawn as a "pristine" version in the depths from the shadow soldiers holding the weapons. There is a whole method of getting the exact pristine version of an item, and pristine versions do more damage and even allows for you to re-roll for special modifiers when first obtaining them.

[@ZeranZeran]

This is really well made, excellent guide man.

[@johnsanders3380]

I used a Blue Mane Lynel Saber Horn with the damaged Royal Guard's Claymore giving me 130 attack damage, and I took out a White Maned Lynel in the Depths with only 5 mounted attacks. And there are other fuse materials that are even higher than this Saber Horn. Side note, after you attach the fuse material, you have to "redamage" your weapon. For some reason, for me at least, it seems to reset the durability when you attach the fuse material.

It’s not so bad once you’re used to fighting Lynels since the mechanics were not changed at all from BOTW.

And just like Rureno just said, as long as your hearts are capped they can’t 1-shot you. *FAIR WARNING THOUGH* if you have Bonus hearts, it does away with the one-shot protection and you will then get 1-shotted if you don’t have a fairy.

[@sirarthurkingofbobland4159]

Lovely to hear, now try Malenia with max 15 vigor solo.

[@mmmmmmmm7620]

Bro wrong game

[@feverXdream]

After mounting the lynel and getting your hits, when you backflip off, go into bullet-time (slow-mo) and get some arrow hits in as your combo ender 👍

[@MichMasteR]

cant pull the bow out while doing that

[@blindmelon2007]

@@MichMasteR you can at the end when you get hit off while in bullet time

[@davidcrawford5324]

If you manage to get a head-shot on the Lynel from behind while in midair post backflip, won't that just stun them again to reset the ride so you can get even more free hits with your uber strong weapon? I tend to do the very same thing vs a Frox when they shake me off and bump me up into the air in an attempt to swallow me. I pop my paraglider and either line up another shot on the eye manually in midair via slo-mo, or I attach a Keese eyeball for an easy snipe, stunning him again, thus allowing me to drop back down to attack it some more.

[@DarkLordGanondorf190]

Thank you for being so straightforward and no-nonsense about the whole process 👍

[@AdaTheWatcher]

You can also skip all of this and then glue two chests to eachother, the lynels will just scream at it forever and not do anything. It does take a little trouble to get them to start the scream, but once you do you've won the fight.

[@zephyrpro9641]

Thankyou! Use to be a seasonal lynel hunter back in botw and this was hella fun, did it my first try too! Had slight trouble with the armoured one, but that blunt weapon trick came in clutch!

[@mookiestewart3776]

Getting the a switch and this game tmw, I will be using your guides from the start!! Subbed!!

[@OhitoriTengoku]

I really bad at aiming,so i always use keese eyeball...

[@matthewferguson6524]

Just an FYI, if you feed a weapon to the rock octorock they will repair it (most weapons at least) and add a random enhancement, saving the need of constantly seperating fusions.

[@RndmGuy98]

I duplicated an ancient blade (which has 50 fuse power) and got a weapons with 164 damage. I feel like I’m going to SHRED that lynel. Edit: Don’t be like me, it just makes the lynel disappear, without dropping the Loot.

[@Lonewolf3515]

Ya know, having that kind of power might be more useful than having something with only 10 more power lol. XD

[@LauraHorrorshow]

Thank you so much for this!! This was so incredibly helpful. I’m still relatively early on in TOTK and the idea of facing the Lynels again was petrifying. 😂 And I saw another commenter give some very helpful information about ways to get the fierce deity sword back when it breaks by going to one of the Poe statues. All super helpful! Thank you!!

[@ItsShatter]

You can also repair the fierce deity sword by fusing it to a regular/common weapon and having a Rock Octorok swallow/repair it.

[@LauraHorrorshow]

@@ItsShatterWhoa! I had no idea! 😮 Thank you so much!!

[@Sci_X1]

3:40 the barbarian armor also can give max attack buffs but is found in a few caves

[@KBM_dai]

I love how clear his voice is, this tutorial was soooo good ❤

[@andrewdrummond3715]

For what it's worth, you can still get the Fierce Deity set from the Young Link amiibo. I can personally confirm at least the mask is available from the amiibo.

[@shaftinc8739]

If you get the mask from the amiibo then what is in the chest i wonder

[@matthewferguson6524]

​​@@shaftinc8739 same thing. Sell the extra for a ton of rupees. I got 2 val Dahl masks, one from amiibo and then from chest. Sold the extra for 600 rupees.

[@Marcel2278]

So I found another way to deal with armor, lighting damage does a significant amount of damage to armor, sometimes more than explosives. The lightning companion you get after completing the Gerudo desert temple allows you to peel armor, almost instantly off nearly every enemy in the game with a single arrow (you don't even need to directly hit them, just get close enough). It involves another quest but honestly it's worth it

[@Marcel2278]

Another tip is to find the lightning dragon, it's relatively easy to find and has a lot of materials on its back, you just need acess to a high enough place to catch it's up draft or you can catch it on its way to the depths. It should be close to the Gerudo desert, it's got a lot of good weapon fusion materials on its back that respawn pretty frequently abd if you ride it through the depths you can mark a lot of bright bulbs for late while remaining completely safe. It's just a little bit of a long trip

Marshmallow rises

[@randomgamer4610]

yooo I recognized the voice! I still recall your helpful Elden Ring content glad to see you're still kickin'

[@Reddenbocher]

That claymore has some Serpent Hunter great spear from Elden Ring vibes.

[@cromebookfool]

this is one of the best guide videos I have ever seen. Thank you and I hope you and Marshmallow have a good day

[@Bud287]

A good tip to do when your in the santum getting the claymore, bow, and sheild is to light the 2 torch things with fire (they are right infront of the throne if you go up the stairs) and you get a peice of armor

[@AvDouhg]

This video was well put together .. enjoyed the music in the background.. Good job man 👍👍

[@wLotad]

This man deserves more subs, consistently gets millions of views on great guides

[@SoyJu_ice]

TIPS: 1. if you are bad at aiming, use keese eyes or other monster eyes for basically aimbot for headshots(its a 50/50 chance for headshots) buy make sure the lynel is facing you 2. fight a black boss bokoblin (use bombs far away to lower its health before attacking it) a boss bokoblin in found in lurelin village in the pirate ship 3. dont be sacred! it is just a game, if you die, just reload your save! and dont be scared because the lynels have the gloom on them, they are the same! just always keep your distance ifbyou are not going on its back

[@SoyJu_ice]

also if you feel like you need practice fighting lynels first, just practice doing the tecnique said in the video against red lynels in the overworld

[@thundrxhyper5478]

Your bow aim is godly. It took me many attempts to do the silver lynel

[@TheMyEve]

I bought this game last week and I learn something new literally every hour

[@travisproper5319]

Dude, you’re insane. Thank you so much. I would’ve never done that on my own. You just earned yourself a subscriber and I’m overpowered as Frick.😊

[@iamjstew___4473]

In case anyone is struggling with this but want to grind the zonite easier still you can just buy majoras mask from a stone bargainer in the depths for only 400 Poe. For reference the bargainer was north of riverside stable just under the pond (in the depths though) I entered from the same chasm for the lynels but it might be faster to go to the chasm east of forest of time and head north. (Also don’t know if I was able to buy because I already had it) the deity set was there and the deity sword.

[@endri_ash_river_playdates]

love the calming music as this man brutally beats 5 centaur man beasts to death, really sets the mood

[@MarkDavidBlack]

Awesome video man! This will keep me busy for hours. Thank you so much!

[@omar7311]

What a guide damn, worked flawlessly!

[@Doctor_Pickney]

I happy you can get a somewhat traditional Link outfit early on in the game. And the attack buff is a plus
