How To Beat Congalala in Monster Hunter Wilds
Facing the Congalala requires constant movement due to its size and agility. Avoid positioning directly in front or behind it to minimize the impact of its potent breath attacks. The beast uses its hands for powerful smashes, its tail for whipping attacks, and can unleash breath attacks from a distance.
Focus on breaking its parts for increased damage, starting with the forelegs, which are the easiest to target. After attacking, the Congalala may be briefly vulnerable. For the head, tail, and rear, wait for it to consume a mushroom, which is clearly visible, and then strike when it spews gas from its front or rear. If you avoid the gas, you can attack without fear of immediate retaliation.
If you get caught in the fumes, use deodorant or roll through water to negate the effects. Exploit the wounds you cause by using Focus Mode and Focus Strikes to deliver heavy damage, effectively countering breath attacks or ground smashes.
How To Capture Congalala in Monster Hunter Wilds
Capturing the Congalala follows the same principles as capturing other monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Wait for the skull icon to appear on the minimap next to the monster, indicating it's on its last legs. Follow it until it falls asleep to recover. At this point, set up either a Shock or Pitfall Trap near the sleeping beast. Wake it and lure it into the trap, then throw 2 to 3 Tranq Bombs to successfully capture the Congalala.
