Zinogre Tips | ||
---|---|---|
Attack Zinogre While It Charges Up
Stay Behind Zinogre's Forelegs
Prioritize Breaking Zinogre's Back, Forelegs, and Tail
Avoid Using Shock Traps
Equip Stun Resistance
|
Zinogre can charge itself with electricity by pulling Fulgurbugs in from the air, enhancing its attacks with Thunder once it fully powers up. However, while it charges up, Zinogre is completely vulnerable to attacks. Use this window of opportunity to deal as much damage as possible and prevent Zinogre from completing its charge.
Prioritize dealing damage to Zinogre's back while it's knocked down. Doing this can disperse the Fulgurbugs in its fur and make it more difficult for Zinogre to enter its charged state.
Staying behind Zinogre's forelegs will allow you to easily avoid most of its attacks, letting you spend more time dealing damage instead of dodging. Doing this also gives you easy access to its hind legs, which are one of its weak spots while uncharged.
The potency of Zinogre's charged state directly corresponds to the state of its forelegs, back, and tail. Breaking these specific parts will significantly reduce the power spike Zinogre acquires during its charged state.
Using Shock Traps against an uncharged Zinogre without tranquilizing it first causes it to power up and break free from the trap instead, so make sure to use Tranq Bombs or Tranq Ammo on it beforehand.
In addition, Shock Traps do not work against charged Zinogres as they immediately destroy the trap upon triggering it. Instead, use a Pitfall Trap when deciding to capture a charged Zinogre.
Zinogre's Thunder-based attacks can cause hunters to become stunned more easily. Due to this, we suggest crafting and equipping Decorations with Stun Resistance, such as Steadfast Jewel 1, when going on a hunt to take down Zinogre.
In addition to its attacks in Low and High Rank quests, Zinogre uses the following attacks in Master Rank.
Name | Description |
---|---|
Enraged Triple Paw Slam | Zinogre attacks with three alternating paw slams, tracking the hunter with each strike. This attack can now occur outside of Zinogre's charged state. |
Double Thunderous Paw Slam DANGER |
Zinogre performs two massive lightning-enhanced paw slams in a row, inflicting Thunderblight and dealing massive damage on hit. |
Enraged Triple Paw Slam Attack Information |
---|
Enraged Triple Paw Slam: After performing a headbutt, Zinogre attacks with three alternating paw slams, tracking the hunter with each strike. This attack only occured in Zinogre's charged state in Low and High Rank, but it now gains access to this move while enraged in Master Rank. To avoid this attack, evade left or right just before each paw slam makes contact with the ground. |
Double Thunderous Paw Slam Attack Information |
---|
Double Thunderous Paw Slam: While in its charged state, Zinogre performs two massive lightning-enhanced paw slams in a row, inflicting Thunderblight and dealing massive damage on hit. Note that Zinogre can follow up this attack with a Lightning Claw Uppercut, so prepare to dodge again after this move occurs. |
Zinogre uses the following attacks in Low and High Rank quests.

Single Paw Slam: Zinogre slightly leaps upwards before slamming down one of its paws. This attack is usually followed by it charging itself with Fulgurbugs, so prepare to counterattack after this move occurs. |

Triple Paw Slam: During its charged state, Zinogre performs three alternating paw slams in a row, tracking the hunter with each strike and inflicting Thunderblight on hit. |
Zinogre Headbutt Attack Information |
