Not satisfied with all that variety,Monster Hunter Wildsadds yet another - Guardians.
These new mosnters are a bit unique though, and restricted to the Ruins of Wyveria.
Monster Hunter Wilds is a more approachable, if slightly more mindless Monster Hunter.
Here’s how to beat them and everything they drop.
Guardian Rathalos - Strengths And Weaknesses
Guardians don’t quite work like other monsters in the game.
You have to keep proactive during the fight if you don’t want it dragging on for ages.
Thankfully, Guardian Rathalos has more than a few weaknesses for you to take advantage of.
That means any build can be effective against them.
Just ensure to bring some flash bombs to actually knock them out of the sky.
This is best avoided by staying close to Rathalos.
Hovering Tail Swipe
While flying, Rathalos whips ahead of them to knock away hunters.
Descending Stomp
Rathalos preps their claws and dives to the ground.
They may claw ahead of themself before completing the dive.
This attack will explode Wylkcrystals.
Firestream
While flying, Rathalos will swing in a circle while breathing fire.
Rathalos breathes in a circle all around them, though not underneath.
As such, stand right under them to avoid this attack entirely.
Chomp
Rathalos will bite multiple times at the hunter in front of them while advancing slightly.
They can hold this run for quite a while, so dodging is difficult.
Try an Offset attack or blocking instead.
Swoop
Rathalos will slash at you with their claws as they fly past multiple times.
This isn’t too hard to avoid, though can be performed quite quickly.
Always be mindful if you see them flying towards you.
Grounded Fireball
While grounded, Rathalos will spit out a fireball.
This can be multiple weaker ones, or a single powerful one that explodes on impact.
Monster Hunter continues to be well and alive after almost two decades.
With so many titles, it can be confusing to know how to play them in order.
