How to Beat Balahara

Balahara Monster Fight Tips
Focus Strike Its Mouth While it Spits Mud Use Screamer Pods When It Submerges Knock Down the Fulagrite Pillar Dodge to the Side

Focus Strike Its Mouth While it Spits Mud

Use Focus Strike on Balahara's mouth whenever it spits mud. Balahara's mouth becomes a weak point every time it spits mud, allowing you to perform a Focus Strike that can topple the monster.

Use Screamer Pods When It Submerges

We recommend stocking up on Screamer Pods as these will bring out and stun the Balahara whenever it buries beneath the sand. Use this as much as possible to give you more openings for executing your highest damage combo.

Screamer Pods can be picked up from wild, flying Baunos that can be found throughout the area.

Knock Down the Fulagrite Pillar

When Balahara starts climbing a Fulagrite Pillar, aim your Slinger at the pillar to bring it down and cause it to fall, dealing huge damage and knocking down the Balahara.

Once its knocked down, deal as much damage as you can during this period to eventually defeat the Balahara and complete the hunt.

Dodge to the Side

Most of Balahara's attacks are frontal attacks that only go in one direction, so make sure to dodge to the side to avoid getting inflicted by Waterblight.
