Eat attack up food (1.5x dmg)
-
Attach something blunt to a Royal claymore (moblin horn, lynel mace horn etc), and flurry rush an attack (2x dmg on flurry rush for royal weapons) . Armor melts in one flurry rush. (Any royal weapon works)
-
Use a royal guard claymore thats almost broken fused with a lynel horn. Does like 170dmg, and if you only hit him when mounted it uses no durability.

When his health is super low swap to a different weapon. Otherwise you might accidentally hit the ground and break the sword.
Best fuse items for weapons are from lynel drops… (55 attack from silver lynel)
oh yeah, you do have to be careful of that. and you do need the arrows to hit. Move to where such a shot will spread hit the lynel (side on is a good starting point - like the lynel is a barn door!). Also if you are not all fooded up etc and/or wearing the Fierce Deity set armour it will probably take two shots, but this is still a cheap investment for the lynels demise.
Also, honestly its been a while since I started so most of my bows are 5x 40 (or close to) because I kept rerolling them.
Also anyone interested, if you hit up a white or silver lynels, you can usually kill 2 of them with one bow. So you might lose a bow, but you will get 2 in return, netting you +1 new bow and a replacement for the lost one.
