How To Beat Lala Barina In Monster Hunter Wilds

In Monster Hunter Wilds, you’ll find a multitude of fresh monsters waiting to be hunted across an array of distinctive biomes and landscapes. Each region houses awe-inspiring creatures, but it’s within the Scarlet Forest where some truly fascinating ones reside. Specifically, this is the habitat of the intriguing Lala Barina.

Lala Barina is a unique creature that resembles both a giant spider and a ballerina, moving nimbly with elegance while ready to strike at any moment. There’s an enchanting allure to this beast, but it can be treacherously challenging to fight due to its deceptive nature. Here is crucial information about Lala Barina and how to dodge its debilitating grip.

Lala Barina – Strengths And Weaknesses

Lala Barina, similar to their real-world arachnid counterparts, exhibits astonishing speed. Consequently, weapons that operate more leisurely might find it challenging to cope with them, unless one masterfully time attacks according to their movements. It’s crucial to be precise when attacking, as missing your strongest strikes is common due to their frequent mobility. Therefore, ensure you strike them only when they are stationary.

In a fight with these towering figures, you’ll find yourself primarily targeting their legs when armed with melee weapons, until you manage to bring them down. Once they’re on the ground, your focus should shift towards the stinger and forelegs. The stinger, in particular, is where you should aim, as it is a vulnerable spot for Lala Barina. Damaging this area will not only weaken it but also lessen the range and potency of its paralyzing attacks.

Let’s check out the rest of their strengths and weaknesses:

Weak Point – Stinger/Tail.
Elemental/Ailment Weaknesses – Fire, Stun. Susceptible to all.
Elemental/Ailment Strengths – Water, Dragon, Paralysis.
Best Weapon Damage – All weapons can work well, but Blunt weapons have the highest advantage.

Similar to an actual spider, Lala Barina is somewhat delicate and susceptible to almost every status affliction except for Paralysis. However, stunning them is the most effective way to combat them. Whenever possible, aim for landing attacks on their head to knock them out. Fire element is particularly effective against them, significantly increasing your damage output and making it easier to destroy the petals and stinger.

Due to the damaged petals, Lala Barina won’t be able to scatter her florets until new ones grow back.

Best Equipment To Fight Lala Barina

Lala Barina is a monster encountered at an early stage in the game, meaning your choice of armor will be somewhat limited. Fortunately, this creature doesn’t possess a vast array of elemental attacks or special abilities. Consequently, you can effectively defeat it using any of the armors available during the early stages.

At present, the Chatacabra and Quematrice gear is among the most potent options available. So, feel at liberty to arm yourself with either one of them. Unfortunately, there aren’t many resources to boost your paralysis resistance currently. Therefore, try your best to dodge their stingers and all their florets for safety.

Should you be ready to make an effort and search diligently, you can track down some Vespoids to acquire the Vespoid armor set. This additional feature includes enhanced paralysis resistance, which may boost your chances in combat with Lala Barina.

Lala Barina – Fight Breakdown And Moves

Unlike most arachnid creatures in the series, Lala Barina uses webs sparingly in its moves. However, it doesn’t completely avoid using webs. Instead, it showcases remarkable agility in its long legs, preferring to use this over webs for mobility. When given the chance, it opts to immobilize you with paralysis instead.

In spacious environments with a roof, like their home within the Scarlet Forest, Lala Barina prefers to employ their web techniques.

Here’s a quick breakdown of each of Lala Barina’s moves and how best to counter each of them:

Move	Description	Counter
Claw Slash	Lala Barina pulls back a claw, and then slashes ahead with it.	This is quite a short-range attack, so just dodge out of the way. They typically perform this attack after running towards you, giving you advance warning to move away.
Floret Spread	A quick burst of paralytic florets is released around Lala Barina. Can be done while standing still or moving.	Florets can be shot out of the air with a Bowgun or Bow, but simply must be avoided otherwise. The small spread will always be away from Lala Barina, so stay close to them.
Stinger Stab	Lala Barina drops low and quickly pierces behind them with their stinger.	This is mainly done while behind Lala Barina, though can be dodged by stepping to the side. This is a great time to attack the stinger while it’s low.
Large Floret Spread	Lala Barina will stand in place and spread a massive amount of florets around the area.	This attack has a very wide spread, but they fall slowly while moving outwards. Therefore, it is safest to be near where Lala Barina performs the attack. It is also easy to punish Lala Barina during this as they stay still for a while.
Swinging Floret Spread	In areas with a ceiling, Lala Barina will hang upside-down and start spinning, spreading florets everywhere and damaging you if you come in contact with them during the swing.	This spreads like the Large Floret Spread, though they are not as easily approached. Instead, use the Slinger or ranged weapons to knock them down, canceling the attack and giving you time to attack yourself.

Lala Barina is a nimble adversary who seldom stands still for long. Although they might not possess an extensive repertoire of attacks, they can quickly immobilize you with their arsenal of moves. This makes it easier for them to deliver a sting, given their ability to paralyze. Engaging them with heavier weapons can prove challenging, but since their florets typically scatter away from them, it’s feasible to avoid danger even when using slower weapons.

Lala Barina – Drops And Materials

With Lala Barina, the game presents you with a creature that requires precise targeting to obtain all the parts you desire. Compared to Quematrice and Chatacabra, its resources are more abundant, which might necessitate using specialized weapons to collect some of them effectively. Let’s examine them, listed in order from highest drop rate:

Low Rank

As a gamer, I can tell you that when it comes to the rare drops from Lala Barina, none of them come easy, and there’s no surefire way to get one without the certificate. However, don’t let that discourage you – even though the drop rate is the lowest among all, you shouldn’t find it excessively challenging. If you happen to be using a Blunt weapon in your quest against Lala Barina, then snagging those Claws won’t be such a hassle since you’re aiming for stuns anyways. Keep at it and good luck!
