It is recommended to bring a Cleanser to counter Frostblight when fighthing a Hirabami. Large Dung Pods also help to separate a herd of Hirabamis.
Bring items like the Armorskin and Demondrug to boost your stats, along with the Armorcharm and Powercharm. Lastly, a Flash Pod can knock it out of the air when it is hovering.

Hirabamis come as a pack, which makes them difficult to take down. You can even the odds by dispersing the group using Large Dung Pods so you can defeat them one by one.
Breaking Hirabami's tail drops Tail Claw Shard. Picking this up will give you Heavy Slicing Pod Slinger ammo, which allows you to take down Hirabami from the air using your Slinger.
Alternatively, you can use Flash Pods and similar effects on the Hirabami not only to blind it, but also to knock it out of the air when it is hovering. Blinding it mid-air will cause it to fall, allowing for a window of opportunity.
The Hirabami's ice projectiles that it spits can also freeze the Hunter in place, making them vulnerable to follow-up attacks. Try to dodge or block these projectiles when able. If frozen, use a Cleanser immediately, or spam movement commands in order to break free from the ice.
Then, if the situation allows, use a Focus Strike on the Hirabami's mouth, as the mouth turns into a weakspot briefly after it fires its projectiles.
How to Use Focus Mode and Focus Strike
Iceshard Cliffs has Ice Spikes, Brittle Ice Pillars, and Floating Rubble traps you can use against Hirabami. Activate them nearby Hirabami using your Slinger to deal heavy damage against them!
| Attack | Description |
|---|---|
| Swiping Bites | When you see Hirabami floating in a prone position, it could attempt to bite you, swiping its head left-to-right with each bite. If you're in the way of this attack, dodge in the direction opposite of where it's swiping (ex. dodge to the left if it's swiping towards your right). |
| Projectile Spit | Hirabami can spit one-to-two projectiles at you at a time, signified by it rearing its head back to prepare for the spit. Dodge or run sideways from each spit once you see it rear up to do so. |
| Side Roll | When angered, Hirabami can initiate a sideways-roll towards you. Watch out for this attack when it's on the ground and it starts to coil its body inward like an accordion. If you're near its ends, dodge away adjacent of the attack. If you're in in the mid section of the monster, dodge outwards, away from the roll. |
| Tail Smash and Swipe | While in an angered state, Hiramabi can smash its tail down on you then swipe it sideways. You'll know it's about to do this attack when it positions its tail above you before attacking. Dodge sideways from the smash before dodging inwards or outwards from the swipe. |
| Dive Attack | When angered, Hirabami can do a dive attack towards you, twirling like a blade while diving. Watch out when it does a loop in the air as it will proceed to quickly dive down towards you afterwards. Start running sideways once you see it do the loop, and dodge away once Hirabami dives. |
| Spin Smash | While angered, Hirabami can spin very quickly in the air before smashing down. This attack has quite the reach, so it's important you run or dodge away from it once you see it start spinning in the air. |
| All Hirabami Variants | |
|---|---|
| Tempered | Frenzied |
| Monster | Basic Information |
|---|---|
Tempered Hirabami |
Habitat: First Encounter: Unlocked after finishing the Wyvern Sparks and Rose Thorns quest. |
A Tempered Hirabami's most notable distinction compared to their regular counterparts are their large white scars, indicating that the monster is a survivor of tough battles, and that it is stronger than your regular Hirabami.
You can break these scars open to reveal a blue Tempered Wound that grants you extra rewards when it is broken!
| Difficulty | Possible Rewards |
|---|---|
| 5★ | Hunt Completion Breaking Tempered Wounds |
Completing a Tempered Hirabami hunt will award Damaged Weapon Shards and Hunter Symbol I, materials for crafting Rarity 6 Artian Weapons and other weapons of this tier.
Breaking its Tempered wounds will yield Wyverian Bloodstone Shard and Wyverian Bloodstone (S), useful resources for Relic Melding.
| Monster | Basic Information |
|---|---|
Frenzied Hirabami |
Habitat: First Encounter: Unlocked after finishing the Lurking Shadows quest. |
A Frenzied Hirabami, on the other hand, takes on a darker coloring and has dark purple foam dripping from its mouth, a clear sign of the Gore Magala's Frenzy Virus having infected it.
In combat, it is more aggressive, and can inflict Frenzy on hunters when it lands enough attacks. Defeating one will earn you unique Frenzy-related materials that can be used for crafting.
| Difficulty | Possible Rewards |
|---|---|
| 4★ | Hunt Reward |
Successfully taking down a Frenzied Hirabami will grant players Frenzy Shards, used to craft parts of the Gore Magala armor set and Gore Magala weapons, among other things.

| |
| |
| |
Some materials, such as the Hirabami Tail Claw or Hirabami Webbing, are more easily obtained through breaking the Hirabami's Tail and Head respectively. The Partbreaker skill can make this task easier.
