Invasive Plesioth Location

Head to the Cave North of Azuria

Invasive Plesioth Location
To find the Invasive Plesioth, you'll need to enter the cave connected to the ocean at night.

How to Repel Invasive Plesioth

1. Invasive Battle Clues
2. Recommended Level is 10-15
3. Conserve Stamina on the First Turns
4. On 3rd Turn Onward, Focus Fire Attacks on Plesioth's Head

Invasive Battle Clues

Clue
1. Is this a scale? Scorched, by the looks of it. Despite how damp it is around here...
You think it got toasted in battle with a fire-breather?
2. Enough water to split rock? A part that can store so much water might be its weak point.
3. Looks like a battlefield. This mosnter ain't a fan of fire, from what I can tell!

Based on the invasive clues, the most important part of repelling Plesioth is bringing a lot of fire attacks. Bring weapons with fire attributes and 1-2 monsties with fire attacks. Additionally, bringing allies with fire monsties such as Eleanor and her Anjanath will prove beneficial for the fight.

Recommended Level is 10-15

While Invasive Plesioth can be challenging, you can repel it earlier into the game just by using a strong Fire Monstie and use of items such as Vital Essence.!

Conserve Stamina on the First Turns

The main way to repel Plesioth is by using fire attacks on its head. During the first few turns, specific body part targetting is unavailable so save your stamina and only use normal attacks to charge up your stamina for the next turns.

On 3rd Turn Onward, Focus Fire Attacks on Plesioth's Head

After using Water Jet and getting a notification from Rudy about the real fight begins, continuously use fire attacks on its head. Once its head part is broken using fire attacks, he will be repelled. We recommend using a Pink Rathian due to its high Fire damage!

Rewards for Repelling Invasive Plesioth

Obtain Lagiacrus Egg

Baby Lagiacrus
A Lagiacrus Egg will be your main reward for repelling the Invasive Plesioth. Enter its invasive den to obtain the egg and hatch it to get a Lagiacrus Monstie!
