MH Rise Crimson Glow Valstrax Weaknesses – How to Beat Valstrax

To beat Crimson Glow Valstrax in MH Rise efficiently, you need to know its weaknesses. First of all, you need to know that it’s equally vulnerable to all elemental effects aside from Dragonblight; it’s completely immune to it. Other than that, you should use slicing and blunt weapons. Target the head, the wingarms, and the neck for best damage outpost. Slicing the tail is a good idea (you also get an extra carve for cutting it off), as is breaking the wings with blunt force. This prevents the monster from using some of its stronger attacks.

Two more useful things to keep in mind. One, try and position yourself around its front legs when attacking head-on. This helps avoid the majority of the wing attacks, which are very strong. Second, when the beast starts charging energy in its chest, deal damage to it as fast as you can. If you pull it off correctly, it’ll combust while still inside, dealing damage and knocking the Valstrax down. Be careful; you don’t want to find yourself in the path of those breath attacks.
