I finished the Champion's Ballad last night and boy was it glorious. The final battle was fun too as was the music. The last memory was charming. The motorcycle is awesome as fuck. Who needs a teleporting horse anymore?
Then I finished off the night by killing two Lynel's. The one in the colosseum (fire) and the other on top of that hill above the Zora. (electricity) Went for a third one (Near Mount Daphnes I think) but got knocked out immediately so I decided to just go to bed. I'm just trying to upgrade all my armor.
I need to figure out a good plan for getting a bunch of dragon parts though. I can rarely seem to hit them and when I do it's usually just the scales. It's so hard to hit the other parts which I'll need to upgrade my classic Link outfit. (Each level requires a different dragon part from each) Guess I just have to fly closer. Do some bows fire straighter than others? It's easier to hit properly when I don't have to account for gravity.
The Dragon materials are certainly a chore by the end, but I remember getting it down to a good formula.
For Farosh, teleport to the Lake Tower, look towards the lake itself, and glide down to the bridge tower on your left. It helps immensely if you have the Gerudo helm, or other electric resistance gear. Park up there, throw together a campfire (unless it's raining), and rest until night. Then wait looking out over the Ya Naga shrine inside the Hylia Island, Farsoh will show up between 9 and 12, flying slowly along the edge of the lake. Your first trigger is when the wind gusts start to pick up, but don't strike yet; wait until Farosh is literally flying in front of your tower, then jump to take flight. If you've timed it well, you'll have a good angle
and distance on the horns, teeth and scales, for the claws wait until the first set of arms are in view. Once you collected the material, warp back to the Lake Tower, and rinse and repeat until you have enough.
For Naydra, teleport to Jitan Sa'mi Shrine, the Spring of Wisdom atop Mount Lanayru (after completing the quest to unlock Naydra that is, but at your stage I think that's done lol), run out and face west past the Hylia statue, so that you can see the Lanayru Promenade. Frost resistance gear and buffs are a must here. Glide down as best you can to the left-hand cliff overlooking the entrance to said Promenade (also overlooking that clearing where the Lynel patrols, if you know the one). Throw down a camp fire, and wait until night. Keep looking at the mountain you glided from, and Naydra will spawn, flying down directly to you, it's route being straight through the promenade. Again, once it's actual head is within jumping distance, leap up, glide and immediately go in for a shot, regardless of what material you're after this is the best bet of getting one quickly. Once you've grabbed the material, warp back to the Spring of Wisdom, and again, rinse and repeat.
For Dinraal, teleport to Tena Ko'sah Shrine in the Ancient Columns (the one south of Rito Village and the Fairy Fountain, also is a spot for a Memory), get some fireproof/resistance gear or buffs, throw down a camp fire behind the shrine (so as to not immediately attract enemies or wildlife if you're into saving time) and wait until
morning this time. Once morning has come, run south along the edge, so that you're looking over Tanagar Canyon, where Dinraal will visit during the day. I cannot remember the specific spot I found to guarentee a good hit on the dragon here, as this was the only one of the three I was jumping
down towards rather than
up which makes steering while gliding harder. Regardless, the method is still the same, get as close to that head before trying to pop a shot, and as long as you keep teleporting back to Tena Ko'sah and camping again, it'll keep respawning.
As for bows, for scales (which I know is not really top of your priority) get a multiple hit bow (I
think the Korok one does this), since it trebles the chance of a hit. Once it's been hit
once in an encounter, that's all you're gonna get until it respawns next time, so best not to be trigger happy with it. As for long range bows, the Rito based bow sets are the best for distance; Swallow and Falcon come to mind looking at my save right now. The Shiekah style bow - the Phrenic bow, I think has good range too, and I believe (may be wrong) it is also a sniper one to help with aim for occasions just like this.
Hope any of this helps anyway!
