How To Beat Congalala in Monster Hunter Wilds
Facing the Congalala requires constant movement due to its size and agility. To avoid its potent breath attacks, position yourself to the sides rather than directly in front or behind. The Congalala uses its hands for powerful smashes, its tail for sweeping attacks, and its breath for ranged assaults.
Focus your attacks on the forelegs for easier damage opportunities, as they often leave the Congalala vulnerable. For the head, tail, and rear, wait for the beast to consume a mushroom, visible during combat, and then strike when it expels gas from either end. If affected by the fumes, use deodorant or roll through water to neutralize the effects.
Exploit any wounds you cause with Focus Mode and Focus Strikes to deliver significant damage and interrupt the Congalala's attacks, especially during breath or ground-smashing maneuvers.
How To Capture Congalala in Monster Hunter Wilds
Capturing the Congalala requires weakening it first. Watch for the skull icon on the minimap, signaling that the beast is nearing exhaustion. Follow it to its resting spot, then set up either a Shock or Pitfall Trap nearby. Once the trap is in place, wake the Congalala and lure it into the trap. Quickly throw 2 to 3 Tranq Bombs to successfully capture it.
