Violet Mizutsune Hunting Tips

The key to subduing Violet Mizutsune is to avoid their bubble barrage, but beware; once they're enveloped in flame, their attacks become more powerful. Look for openings to attack and if you continually attack parts covered in flame, you'll topple the monster, providing a chance for a counter-offensive. Avoid wearing armor with low fire resistance.

How to Beat Violet Mizutsune

Violet Mizutsune Tips
Take Advantage of Openings Avoid Getting Up Early Try to Pop Bubbles Dodge Actively Remove Its Enraged State

Take Advantage of Openings

Violet Mizutsune, as aggressive as it is, has several attacks which leaves it vulnerable. If you are not being targeted, try to get some quick hits while Violet Mizutsune is finishing up its current attack.

Avoid Getting Up Early

If you have a tendency to use your Wirebug as soon as you can when knocked down, try to hold yourself from doing so especially when fighting Violet Mizutsune.

This monster's moves are all about follow-ups, specifically its bubble attacks which home in towards you even if you are on the ground.

If you wait for a few moments before getting up, you may end up stalling Violet Mizutsune's moves rather than meeting one of its bubbles as soon as you leap away with your Wirebug.

Try to Pop Bubbles

For hunters using long-range weapons, try to pop Violet Mizutsune's bubbles when you can. This will help clear out the field from its homing projectiles and may end up saving one of your hunting buddies when they are being targeted!

Dodge Actively

Violet Mizutsune's attacks will constantly require you to dodge due to the range of its attacks and how agile it is on the field. Avoid staying in position and try to keep up with its movements.

Remove Its Enraged State

Violet Mizutsune is more dangerous when it is Enraged, as its attacks are more powerful and deal more damage. Once it is on fire, attack its head or tail until it is knocked down to remove its Enraged State.

Additionally, once it charges up its signature move, prioritize removing its Enraged State to avoid setting off the bubble bomb. This will also cause the attack to hit Violet Mizutsune instead!

Bite Attack

Bite Attack Information
MOVE: Violet Mizutsune eyes its target and quickly chomps at it. Simply roll away if you spot the monster looking at you.

Slide Attack

Slide Attack Information
Slide Attack: Violet Mizutsune rapidly slides its body across the field twice. It only has one target during this move which it follows throughout the attack. If you are being targeted, keep an eye on where you roll to avoid getting trampled by its second slide!

Tail Attacks

Like other monsters, Violet Mizutsune can use its tail to deal damage.

Tail Attack Variations
Tail Whip: Violet Mizutsune flings its tail towards a target. If you see it curling its tail sideways, dodge backwards to avoid getting whipped!
Tail Slam: Violet Mizutsune hops forward and slams its tail like a club. This can be easily dodged by rolling sideways.

Enraged State

Enraged State Information
Enraged State: Violet Mizutsune cloaks itself in purple flames, lighting its head and tail on fire. The explosion will deal damage, so stay clear of it as it charges up! Once Violet Mizutsune enters this state, it will be able to use more deadly attacks. Hitting its head and tail will eventually take it out of its Enraged State, with an added bonus of knocking it down!

Scalding Stream

Violet Mizutsune is able to utilize its normal variant's water breath attacks, with a key difference being it now leaves a trail of flames on the ground!

The safest way to avoid this attack is by rolling away as far as you can from the monster, as Violet Mizutsune's water breath has a long range.

Scalding Stream Variations
Linear Scalding Stream: Violet Mizutsune spurts out water and blasts it in a straight line.
Sweeping Scalding Stream: Violet Mizutsune sways its head and hits anyone around it with its water breath.
Scalding Stream Combo: A violent combination of both attacks, which can catch anyone who dodges the initial linear attack off-guard once it uses the second water breath attack to sweep everyone around it.
Sliding Scalding Stream: A unique Scalding Stream attack it can use if it is Enraged. This attack covers a wide area since Violet Mizutsune is moving as it uses its water breath.

Bubble Blast

Violet Mizutsune can lob multiple homing bubbles which follow the monster's chosen target. The bubble will explode when it comes into contact with a hunter, the terrain, or with Violet Mizutsune's body.

Roll away from the area to avoid getting caught by the monster's bubble attacks but keep an eye out for any follow-up bubbles!

Bubble Blast Variations
Triple Bubble Blast: Violet Mizutsune blows three bubbles which pops and homes in towards a target.
Quintuple Bubble Blast: Violet Mizutsune can spawn five bubbles which travel faster when lobbed.
Bubble Barrage: An Enraged Violet Mizutsune can create multiple bubbles to continuously harass its target with explosions.
Charged Bubble Barrage: Another unique attack when Enraged, Violet Mizutsune gathers bubbles to form a bigger one and lobs it at a target which causes it to spread.

Diving Foreleg Slam

In an attack similar to its normal variant, Violet Mizutsune can lunge toward hunters and crush them with this heavy attack.

Diving Foreleg Slam Variations
Diving Foreleg Slam: A physical attack which it can use when not Enraged. Violet Mizutsune can use this attack twice in a row.
Fiery Diving Foreleg Slam: This attack will now cause a massive explosion when used if Violet Mizutsune is Enraged.

Fiery Puddles

Violet Mizutsune can use its body to leave several flaming puddles across the field. These puddles will burst after a while.

Avoid rolling towards the puddles as it will explode, deal damage, and launch you upwards upon contact!

Fiery Puddle Variations
Fiery Puddles: Violet Mizutsune slides across the field and randomly spawns puddles around it.
Ring of Fire: Violet Mizutsune slides around its target, caging them inside a ring of puddles.

Quick Pounce

Quick Pounce Attack Information
Quick Pounce: Violet Mizutsune rapidly pounces towards its target. Hunters caught by this move are sent flying upwards.

Spray Burst

Spray Burst Attack Information
Spray Burst: Violet Mizutsune spurts out liquid from its mouth which instantly explodes. The monster will stand still for a few moments before spraying, which is your signal to roll away from the area!

Mizu Bath Bomb

Violet Mizutsune's signature ultimate move wherein it forms a giant bubble. It will hover above the ground while Violet Mizutsune returns its focus towards its targets.

The monster will then perform a dance to release the bubble and cause a giant explosion which can easily knock out any hunters near the area.

This move can be interrupted by taking Violet Mizutsune out of its Enraged State before it releases the bubble, and will instead land back on the monster which damages it.

Mizu Bath Bomb Variations
Mizu Bath Bomb: Violet Mizutsune dances around to form a giant bubble.
Mizu Bath Bomb Release: If not interrupted, Violet Mizutsune will perform another dance which releases the giant bubble and causes a massive explosion.
