Monster Hunter Rise offers a wide array of enemies for players to defeat as they aim to protect Kamura Village from invasion. While monsters start simple, the bosses become more complex as hunters work up the food chain. Eventually, players will face the Royal Ludroth, a crest-faced foe that uses the sponge-like material around its face to guard against damage. Ensure that you’ve got the right tools and knowledge to overcome this obstacle. Here are the Royal Ludroth’s weaknesses, resistances, and drop rates in Monster Hunter Rise.

All Royal Ludroth Weaknesses

Royal Ludroth Elemental Weakness

The Royal Ludroth’s main weakness is Fire, so make sure to bring a weapon with you that has the element if you can. Should you lack a fire weapon, pick up thunder gear instead, as it deals substantial damage to the Royal Ludroth as well. Only use ice weapons as a last resort, as these tools don’t inflict much damage on your prey. Avoid using water and dragon weapons, as the Royal Ludroth is resistant to their impact.

Those using fire elemental weapons should focus their attacks on the Head, Mane, Abdomen, and Back for the most damage. Thunder weapon users should concentrate on the Mane, while ice weapons are most impactful when striking the Mane, Foreleg, and Abdomen.
