Learn how to defeat Teostra in Monster Hunter: World. Discover its weaknesses, strengths, attack patterns, and best strategies to overcome this Elder Dragon.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Teostra's head is its most vulnerable point, followed by its wings and tail. The head and wings can be broken, and the tail can be severed.
  2. 2
    Teostra is weak to Water and Ice, and resistant to Fire. Other elements are less effective.
  3. 3
    As the fight progresses, Teostra will accumulate fire, increasing its danger. Elderseal weapons can reduce this fire accumulation.
  4. 4
    Teostra is moderately susceptible to Poison and Stun.
  5. 5
    Maintain a Fire Resistance of twenty or higher to mitigate fire damage and prevent being constantly set ablaze.
  6. 6
    Teostra's attacks escalate as its fire aura builds, moving from basic physical and fire attacks to leaving trails of fire on the ground and using more powerful moves.
  7. 7
    In its final stage, Teostra can unleash a devastating Super Nova attack after flying into the air and charging up. Use a Flash Pod to interrupt this attack or flee the area.
  8. 8
    Be wary of Teostra's other attacks, including fire breaths (short-range arc and long-range sweep), over-the-shoulder bites, tail sweeps, and various charge attacks.
  9. 9
    Teostra can also punish stunned or recovering hunters with a localized, explosive spark attack.
  10. 10
    When Teostra is not actively attacking, sharpen your weapons. If healing, keep moving to avoid its attacks.
Tips
  • Focus damage on Teostra's head, wings, or tail.
  • Equip gear with high Fire Resistance (aim for 20+).
  • Utilize Water or Ice element weapons.
  • Consider using Elderseal weapons to manage Teostra's fire buildup.
  • A well-timed Flash Pod can interrupt Teostra's Super Nova attack.
  • Be prepared for Teostra to become more aggressive and use more fire-based attacks as the fight progresses.
  • Sever the tail for an additional chance at rare materials.
  • Break the head for a chance at a Teostra Gem.
