Recommended Weapon Element | |
---|---|
Ice Weapon | Diablos is weakest against ice. |
Recommended Armor Skills | |
Health Boost | Diablos has big damage combos that can instantly cart you, so maxing out your health will be helpful. |
Stun Resistance | Diablos can stun you and kill you right after. Prevent this by getting Stun Resistance up to Lvl 3. |
Tremor Resistance | When you step on the path where Diablos is burrowing, you will get slowed, leaving you vulnerable to attacks. Tremor Resistance helps negate this. |
Earplugs | Diablos has a big roar, so levelling up the Earplugs skill to Lvl 5 will prove handy. |
Diablos has a habit of diving into the sand when enraged, you can use a Screamer Pod to force Diablos out of the sand and stagger him for a few seconds because of the loud sound the Screamer Pod creates. Use this as an opportunity to attack with your best combos and maximize your damage output for efficiency.
Many of Diablos' attacks have a wide range but can be easily dealt with using a shield with the skill Guard Up. You can abuse this to repel most of his attacks while consistently trying to deal chip damage on the horn.
Diablos will frequently do rush attacks that you can also use to your advantage. You can lead Diablos to charge towards the rock pillars that are scattered throughout the map. This will not only deal massive damage but it will also stun him for a few seconds giving you another opportunity to attack.
Diablos does a unique attack that he can only do in area 14. There is a wall of sand that he can enter and instantly rush towards you after a few seconds. This can cart you if it hits at low health or if you do not have enough defense. Be sure to prepare to roll away and keep your distance when Diablos enters the sand wall.
