White - Maned Lynels are both rarified and challenging to defeat .
Anyone who has playedBreath of the Wildfor a adequate amount of time remembers the Lynel . These horrendous Centaurus - king of beasts cross functioned as easy the most dangerous enemy as well as the most pleasurable once learned . As one would wait , Lynels have made their marvelous comeback inThe Legend of Zelda : Tears of the Kingdom , although they show up here perceptibly less ofttimes than in the last game . And even if you do find one , it wo n’t always come along in its White - Maned form . If you would like to detect out how to both site and get the better of the White - Maned Lynel inTears of the Kingdom , then take a spirit at our pathfinder below .
White-Maned Lynel locations
To have a chance at get in touch with the White - Maned Lynel , you will have to hire with the opposition ’ “ point up ” scheme , so to speak . As you defeat more enemies across the land of Hyrule , opposition will broadly spawn in different colors , which signals a more hefty variant . Despite this , the first Lynel you meet will probably come in its base blood-red - maned form . But if you beat that Lynel and continue to overcome other foeman , the Lynels will eventually upgrade to their blue course and then further into their White - man form . White - Maned Lynels are not the most powerful variation — that award goes to the Silver Lynels — but they can still well overwhelm you if unprepared .
As for specific location where you could find the Lynels ’ different variants , I have only managed to come across two so far as of the time of this writing . I managed to encounter one of them directly east of Rito Village and shortly to the southeastern United States of Tama Pond .
by and by on , I found another Lynel in Rabia Plain , place to the northeast of Kakariko Village .

In all , Tears of the Kingdomfeatures a amount of 12 Lynel locations , around half of the total inBreath of the Wild . Notably , the Hyrule Compendium entry for the White - man Lynel states that you’re able to find it both in the Faron Grasslands Depths and the Central Hyrule Depths . So you could also try out and explore those locations to see if you come across one . But if you would like a rundown on the exact co-ordinate of all 12 locations , you’re able to visit ourSilver Lynel guide here .
Fighting the White-Maned Lynel
The White - Maned Lynel and its three other variants boast a wide-cut armoury of attacks , each of which can devastate you if not careful . to boot , the Lynel ’s moveset changes based on whether it wields a sword and shield , lance , or golf club . Here are the move that you could expect from the sword and shield Lynels specifically .
Sword and shield moves
Spear moves
So far , I have only come across the sword and shield - wielding Lynels inTears of the Kingdom . Having said that , the shaft and club chance variable undoubtedly carry over their movesets wholesale fromBreath of the Wildmuch like the sword and shield ones do . So here are the remain artillery - undivided move based on my experiences withBreath of the Wild .
Club moves
multifarious moves
The White - man Lynels can perform all of the below motion no matter what artillery they manage , so always look out for them .
Other things to note
In general , bring down headshots will serve you well during Lynel fights , as they give the puppet subject to a unique fundamental interaction . Once the headshot stuns the Lynel , you’re able to run up to the sides or the back and climb up it much like you’re able to a horse . Although you obviously ca n’t devolve on it around , this does wait on as a perfect chance to take out your most powerful artillery and stumble the Lynel with repeated rap before it flings you off . InBreath of the Wild , doing this completely maintained the durability of your artillery , although I have not yet figured out if this continue true inTears of the Kingdom .
Either way , after it toss you off , you could enrol bullet train sentence and land even more headshots while you still have stamina remaining . Other method for mount the Lynel let in glide on top of it from an updraft or a high-pitched - up place and pilfer up behind it before the competitiveness starts , although note that the Lynel has exceptionally near hearing compared to other freak .
Defeating the White - Maned Lynel will drop some of the best point you’re able to find inTears of the Kingdom . The Savage Lynel Shield can damage enemies through skirt without needing to fuse first , and the Savage Lynel Bow can simultaneously fire three or even five arrows at the cost of one . to boot , the horns it dangle give extremely high attack boosts to weapons once fuse , which should help vastly when fight other tough enemies . But although these awards are bang-up on their own , the ones offered by the Silver Lynel are even better .
