How To Defeat Congalala in Monster Hunter Wilds (Weakenesses & Strategies)

by

Congalala, without a doubt, is one of the most vexing critters in Monster Hunter Wilds. Ignoring its gassy nature, this creature can assault with various status impacts and boasts a lot of agility that makes every run-in with it quite demanding. Novice hunters might struggle when attempting to slay this beast. So, we’ve collected some handy tips to help you conquer it swiftly and snag those desirable monster resources since, despite its unappealing appearance, the armor derived from it is exceptional and looks sharp on any hunter.

Congalala Weaknesses

In the realm of Monster Hunter Wilds, Congalala proves to be a formidable adversary due to its unique characteristics compared to other creatures. To effectively tackle it, you must zero in on specific body parts or apply elemental effects swiftly. The head area is particularly vulnerable, making it an ideal target for any Slash, Blunt, or Pierce weapon you prefer. However, when it comes to elemental vulnerabilities, here are the ones you should prioritize:

  • Fire
  • Ice

Obtaining fire is relatively straightforward; you can create weapons imbued with fire after defeating Quematrice. However, ice will require more time and effort. As for status effects, Congalala has limited vulnerabilities in this regard, with most falling into the two-star category or having minimal effect. It’s advisable to use a weapon with Paralysis or Blast if available, but otherwise, dealing raw damage is more beneficial.

Hunt Strategy

When your gear is all set, it’s time to embark on this unique hunt. Unlike other battles, Congalala has a knack for inflicting status conditions. Moreover, be prepared for its foul odors as you’ll need plenty of air fresheners or deodorants to neutralize the smell during the fight. Make sure to craft enough beforehand. As you prepare to face this monster, keep these tips in mind:

  1. Focus on Congalala’s tail.
    1. Congalala will burp and afflict one of many different status effects, which change depending on what it eats. Farts never change, but burps can paralyze, blast, or even poison you. To mitigate this, you can attack its tail before it eats the mushroom. This will cause Congalala to drop the mushroom, thus preventing the status effect attack.
  2. Attack its head whenever it rolls over.
    1. Congalala tends to perform several quick attacks that usually leave it on the ground after rolling over. Here is the perfect time to attack its head, which, again, is this monster’s weakest point. The fight might take longer, but if you want the combos to end, you’ll have a better chance of getting some hits in.
  3. Attacking after a fart is ideal.
    1. We’re aware some of these tips sound like a joke but trust us, Congalala farts a lot, and if you manage to avoid its filthy clouds, you can get a few hits in. After a fart, Congalala will get stunned for a bit. Here’s the perfect moment to get many hits in and run away. Just avoid running into the monster’s fart cloud, or you’ll get hit with a status effect.
