Monster Hunter: World - 10 Hardest Monsters (And How To Beat Them)

With an aggressive nature that makes Nergigante's pressure game look lethargic by comparison, Teostra will use its command over nature's most destructive element to make you a crispy treat before you're even able to mount an offensive. That includes conjuring gigantic pillars of fire to flush you out of advantageous positions, as well as the uncanny ability to envelope its own body in flames.

Melee users will have no choice but to face the searing heat head-on by downing Cool Drinks and donning fire-resistant armour - Odogaron's set is great for this - but it's the Elder's enraged state that all members of the hunting troupe will need to be aware of.

The raging flames covering Teostra's form will grow stronger in this mode, and he'll gain a devastating new attack. Taking flight, he'll draw in a cloud of gas that, when expelled, will ignite a blinding thermonuclear explosion. If caught in its radius, it'll be the cart for you - no exceptions.

This cycle will repeat until either one of you gives up the ghost, but if you're having trouble dealing with Teostra's moveset, breaking his horns will reduce its potency.

Whatever your plan of attack, we'll be rooting for you. Good luck!
