Quick Links
Ice-Breath Lizalfos are the counterpart to Fire-Breath Lizalfos. These creatures camouflage themselves in the snow to try and ambush Link. When they’re defeated inTears of the Kingdom, they have a low chance of dropping a monster part called an Ice-Breath Lizalfos Tail.
As their name indicates,Ice-Breath Lizalfos Tailprefer colder climates. This means farming their tails can be a hassle if players don’t have the right gear to combat the frigid temperatures. However, players will need to farm the Ice-Breath Lizalfos Tails in order to upgrade two armor sets inTears of the Kingdom.

Where to Find Ice-Breath Lizalfos
According to the compendium, Ice-Breath Lizalfos appear in theGerudo Highlandsand theHebra Mountains. Strangely enough, theIce-Breath Lizalfos in the Gerudo Highlandsonly appearat night. During the day, players will findthe Fire-Breath Lizalfosinstead.
Since the Ice-Breath Lizalfos only appear in cold areas, Link will need to wearlevel 2 cold-resistant gearor have alevel 2 cold-resistant meal/elixir effect. Armor can be upgraded by a Great Fairy, but players will need to have unlocked two Great Fairies to upgrade their armor to the appropriate level. Another way to ward off the cold is by wearing one piece of cold-resistant armor and equipping afire weapon. This can be a melee weapon fused with a Ruby oran Igneo Talus Heart.
The Ice-Breath Lizalfos Tails can’t be tracked with the Sensor+, but if playerstake a pictureof an Ice-Breath Lizalfos, they can track them instead. This will make it easier to hunt down and farm the tails.Players can get the Camerafrom the side quest “Camera Work in The Depths” at Lookout Landing. They can then get theSensor+and theHyrule Compendiumfrom Robbie in the “Presenting Sensor+” side questafter clearing oneof the “Regional Phenomena” main quests.
Ice-Breath Lizalfos are extremely weak to fire. They can be killed in one hit if they’re struck by aFire Fruit,Red Chuchu Jelly, or even taking a hit fromYunobo’s Ability/Vow of Yunobo.
