This belligerent monster will attack anything without hesitation. The membrane along its tail fans out when it is provoked—a behavior theorized to be either an act of intimidation or thermoregulation, as it has been known to do so when it breathes fire. |

Be Aware of Anjanath's Enraged Mode
Knock Anjanath Down
Attack the Snout, Head, and Wings When Enraged

Stay Mobile to Avoid Getting Hit

Enraged Mode |
Anjanath's enraged state alters its body, causing its wings and snout to fan out and increasing its deadliness across the board.
This state also alters Anjanath's behavior and specific moves. Read more below:
Leg KO |
---|
Head KO |
Anjanath's large head and legs make it susceptible to knockdowns. Prioritize attacking and breaking its legs and head to keep it grounded and allow you to continue being on the offensive.
When enraged, Anjanath's snout and wings fan out, and its throat organ comes to life, allowing it to emit flames.
While Anjanath is more dangerous in this state, it is also more vulnerable to attacks on its head, snout, and wings. Prioritize dealing damage to these body parts to maximize damage output when Anjanath is enraged.
Shield users rejoice! Anjanath's Flame Breath can be blocked without the Guard Up skill. Take advantage of this opening and unleash your heavy-hitting counterattacks as much as possible.
Anjanath may be a large monster, but it can be surprisingly fast and cover plenty of distance, especially when enraged. Play cautiously and avoid overcommitting against Anjanath to prevent taking unwanted damage.
In addition to its attacks in Low and High Rank quests, Anjanath uses the following attacks in Master Rank.
Name | Description |

Upwards Flame Breath | Anjanath lets out a beam of flames, dragging it upward from beneath its head. |

Delayed Ground Chomp Attack Information |
