A Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild player has found a way to disarm one of the open-world RPG's trickies🌟t foes, making them 𓃲a doddle to defeat. 

As reported by , the Twitter user seen just below has revealed a way to disarm Lynels. Although the fearsome beast still tracks Link's movements with its head, i♈t's rendered utterly defenceless to the player's attacks.

"I was able to take a Lynel’s weapons away and leave it completely helﷺpless. In this state, it won’t attack no matter what you do," the tweet above reads (as translated by Automaton Media. It turns out that there's a very convoluted way to get the Lynel to put away its weapons and turn docile. 

As the Twitter user explains, this is achieved by leading an enemy to the outskirts of Gerudo Town, a village where Link can only enter if he's dressed like a woman, as men aren't allowed in. If enemies get caught in the scene that plays if Link tries to enter the town with🧸out a disguise, all their weapons get taken away.

However, there's something unique to Lynels in this. The Twitter user attempted this experiment with members of the shadowy Yiga Clan, but they still attacked Link even after having had their weapons disappear from them. It's only the Lynels, as it turns out, that go comple🐭tely docile in this situation.

Here's hoping there are a few more intriguing player-lead discoveries in Breath of the Wild left to uncover, before 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Le💟gend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom finally launches next year in May.
