| Khezu's Attacks Can Cause Paralysis |
Enlarge
Khezu's main weakness is fire, as such fire elemental attacks will deal the most damage and drastically speed up the hunt.
Khezu's electrical discharge can and will fire off quickly and will knock you out of your combo and potentially stun you. Hunter's should be careful when attacking especially when using weapons that have long animations like the Dual Blades.
Enlarge
Khezu roars a lot and hunters will often find their combos and silkbind attacks suddenly interrupted by a piercing Khezu roar. Bringing the Earplugs skill will help mitigate this and sustain damage.
During a paralyzed state the hunter won't be able to move. Have your Palico or Palamute around to snap you out of paralysis quicker.
Khezu uses the following attacks in Low and High Rank quests.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Neck Swing Attack | Elongated neck attack that has a long range |
| Electric Breath | Electric attack from the mouth that rushes on the ground Causes paralysis to hunters |
| Electric Discharge | An area-of-effect charged electric attack |
| Ceiling Latch | Khezu will jump up and latch on the ceiling then shoot balls of electricity |
| Body Slam | Jumps up and slams its whole body to the ground |
| Neck Swing Attack Information |
|---|
 Neck Swing Attack: Khezu can unleash a long-ranged swing attack. Ranged users need to be careful with this attack as its damage is high and the range can be surprising. |
| Electric Breath Attack Information |
|---|
 Electric Breath: Khezu uses a slow electric breath in a 180-degree arc. It's extremely slow so it'll be fairly easy to dodge but make sure to bring lightning-resistant gear to be safe. |
| Electric Discharge Attack Information |
|---|
|
Electric Discharge: Khezu can cover itself in lightning which will shock all enemies close to the Khezu. This is a nightmare for melee users but is a great vulnerability against ranged weapons. |
| Ceiling Latch Attack Information |
|---|
 Ceiling Latch: Khezu can latch on the ceiling to perform an evasive maneuver. It will shoots balls of electricity to paralyze hunters. The move is easy to dodge, but attacking Khezu will be quite a hassle. Aim to weaken its legs to make it fall or use exhaust coating in your attacks! |
| Body Slam Attack Information |
|---|
 Body Slam: Khezu will spread its arms, jump up and slam its whole body to the ground with full force! This one is usually followed up by a huge opening but sometimes Khezu will chain this attack with an electric discharge attack so observe and act accordingly! |
