All Lunagaron weaknesses

The Lunagaron’s speed makes it a ferocious encounter, capable of adding ice to its claws and spikes, making it even more dangerous. It will change stances throughout the fight, moving from all fours to attacking you on its hind legs, rushing forward as it reaches out with its claws.

You want to focus on Slashing and Blunt weapons while battling against a Lunagaron. Ammo weapons work fine, but those will primarily want to focus on the creature’s head, which is challenging to land a reliable hit while it moves around. If you’re using an Elemental weapon, avoid relying on Water and Ice and instead use Fire, Thunder, or Dragon, with Fire being the best of the three.
