While pursuing a mysterious dragon, you'll encounter a fierce battle with Rey Dau, a formidable monster in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. This enraged beast is intent on destruction, and your hunting party is unfortunately in its sights.
Monster Hunter Wilds Rey Dau Boss Fight Guide
Known Habitats: Windward Plains Breakable Parts: Horns, Wings, Tail Recommended Elemental Attacks: Ice and Water Effective Status Effects: Poison (2x), Sleep (2x), Paralysis (1x), Blastblight (2x), Stun (1x), Exhaust (2x) Effective Items: Pitfall Trap, Flash Pod, Dung Pod
Rey Dau, the first dragon encountered in Monster Hunter Wilds, possesses the lightning element, rendering it immune to lightning-based attacks. However, it's vulnerable to other elements, particularly water and ice. Prioritize attacking its head (4-star weakness) or wings (3-star weakness). Avoid its sturdy torso and well-protected legs. Utilize all status ailments except Stun and Paralysis.
Use a Flash Pod
Employing Flash Pods is a highly effective tactic. The temporary stun they inflict provides crucial openings for significant damage. Capitalize on this opportunity, especially when Rey Dau unleashes its lightning attack; aim for its glowing red horns while in Focus Mode for maximum impact.
Wear Element-Resistant Gear
For increased survivability, equip gear that enhances elemental resistance. The Hope Armor set, with its Divine Blessing skill (reducing damage and offering resistance to lightning and fire), is a strong choice. Consider boosting your elemental resistance further with a beneficial meal. If dodging proves challenging, maintain proximity to Rey Dau's legs; its attacks primarily target areas in front of and behind it.
Pay Attention to the Environment
Rey Dau's flight patterns will take it across the Windward Plains. Utilize Vine Traps strategically located on the lone tree to temporarily stun it. Exercise caution near its nest, as it employs a powerful follow-up lightning attack in that area.
How to Capture Rey Dau in Monster Hunter Wilds
Capturing Rey Dau offers alternative rewards. Reduce its health to near-death (indicated by a skull icon on the minimap). Deploy a Pitfall Trap (Shock Traps are ineffective against lightning dragons) and swiftly follow up with a Tranquilizer to secure the capture. Act quickly, as you have a limited window of opportunity.
Monster Hunter Wilds is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
