One of the strongest Lynels and a fire-breather. Treat it like other Lynels, but keep moving, parry carefully and heal early.

How to beat it

White-Maned Lynel

Prepare

Bring plenty of food and elixirs. Its fire attacks do heavy damage.

Parry and punish

Stay close and use Perfect Parry to open it. Strike during the stagger.

Stop it and shoot

Stasis holds it still briefly, and arrows to the face stun it.
