[TOTK] Any good tips for fighting electric enemies? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

Both fire and ice enemies can be one-shot by using an attack of the opposit element (even throwing an elemental fruit will work). Is there a similar trick to defeat electric enemies? I feel like they are the most dangerous since there is no easy way to defeat them and they have a very large attack range near bodies of water or during rain.

You can try to pick them off from a distance & be prepared to grab anything you drop, or invest some time into finding all three pieces of a certain armour & upgrade each piece twice. That'll give you electric shock protection so you can just bash them into submission. AFAIK there's no counter element for lightning, I tried water a couple of times but it didn't work (don't throw water on electrical fires, I guess?).

Yeah, I used a splash fruit on an electric lizalfos and I wouldn't recommend it. It caused him to electrify everything and make a lighting shield around him for a while till I was able to kill him with ranged weapons.

I'm not sure how long it lasted, but I was busy trying to back up and keep from dropping my bow.

Whoops! Ah well I guess that's kind of the joy of this game, the way we can experiment with the systems and find new stuff.

I'm just about to complete it, maybe I'll mess around and see if I can build some sort of electric lizalfos-powered water jet machine of death

That sounds fun. I'm trying to get more ideas for builds. I need to collect that light weight "wing" from some elevator guard rail.
