Diablos Combat Info
- Diablos can burrow and traverse underground quickly, attacking from different angles.
- This monster has an ability that manifests as a loud shout / roar, which can cause
Stun. Players may block this by using earplugs. - Ice is the most effective element against it.
- Weakspots on the head, wings and chest, which can be broken.
- Susceptible to Paralysis.
- Resistant to Fire and Thunder to a lesser degree.
- Kinsect Extract:
- Red: Horn, Head, Neck, Tail, Tail Tip
- Orange: Stomach, Back, Left Wing, Right Wing
- White: Left Leg, Right Leg
- Diablos can be forcefully brought to the surface by using loud sounds, such as with a screamer pod, Noios and the Hunting Horn melody Sonic Waves. Its charging attack, while devastatingly powerful, can be baited into colliding with a wildspire, momentarily getting Diablos stuck.
- Diablos is surprisingly quick and has a deceivingly large range, so be ready to dodge whenever the monster begins an animation.
- Diablos is most powerful at the start of the fight. An effective strategy is to kite it around the arena, tiring it out. It is much slower and far less aggressive while exhausted, making the fight much easier.
- When weakened, Diablos will often go to area 14. Here it has access to a new attack, where it burrows into the ground and erupts from the flowing sand walls.

I just got a Majestic Horn as a *Quest Reward* from a HR Investigation (+ another Majestic Horn for actually breaking both horns in that mission). That's why I do not recommend leaving after breaking both horns. Just a quick tip for people farming the horns.

My first kill of the Diablos was using the first tier of the Legiana bow. Didn't really use the special ammo skill, just made use of dodging and firing arrows in 1/2/3 bursts. Fainted once, but won first go with using it.

For dual blades, which is what i use, use flash pods, maxpotion, rations, demondrug and armorskin both demondrung and armorskin last until you cart, and use immunizer to recover red health faster ,before even starting the fight, I always go and GET AN EXTRA PALICO or GRIMALKIN, open the map and right click the white cat icons then follow the green sparkles to get the extra cat. and hit diablos legs to knock it over. and then lure diablos outside where there is a cat on a hill blowing this horn and jump off a ledge and mount him there and he will get stuck in vines, thats what i did and it worked for me. and i was using dual blades.

I had a harder time fighting Rathalos than Diablos. Diablos armor helped me take on the Rathalos better. Idk why people are bitter about him. Get gud is all I gotta say about that.

To everyone who is confused about why Diabolos is not a brute wyvern: Usually the build of a monster determines what it is. That is why the Diabolos is a flying Wyvern: He shares anatomic similarities to Rathalos, Legiana and the rest. Pukei-Pukei falls under a different category tho: it is an early game monster. All early game monsters that were winged (usually Yian Kut-Ku or Gypceros in previous games) are also bird wyverns. Also all Raptor-Like Monsters and monsters Related to other bird Wyverns (Yian Garuga) fall under the Bird Wyvern category.

Diablos like to spam his underground sand attack towards me. I can avoid sometimes but when he hit me with that attack.. half of my health is gone. Which armor should i use? To receive lesser damage towards his underground attack.

Ok, I see a lot of people that are trash talking Diablos, and some have tried to help. But, it seems that nobody takes the hint. I don't even know why, but maybe one more person giving some of the BEST HINTS for hunting Diablos will finally get it through to some people. Ok, so. As mentioned in other comments below, Diablos has a very generic, timed, and learn-able patter. I personally learned Diablos' patterns by just doing the mission over and over until I got it down. So, just learn his pattern would probably be the best tip for any and all players. There is no amount of button-mashing, roll spamming, or just attacking whenever it seems right that will help you through this fight. Secondly, I have tips for two different types of weapon users. If you use hammers, you are going to want to go for the horn first. The best time to attack is right after Diablos pops out of the ground after a dig. BUT, if you are a Longsword user (like me), you will want to go for the tail. I say this because it is easier for said weapons to do said tasks. Of course, you have the option to switch to hacking at the other side, and then work your way to the chest. As a third: Environmental Tips. if you are above, in area 8 I believe (correct me if im wrong), you will want to lure the Diablos into charging into the spires, as much as possible, so you can have the best possible way to have as much damage output. If you are below, in area 12 (again, correct me if i'm wrong), you will also want to do the same things. However, the flashflys can be much more important. After the spires have been worn out, and the Diablos has not been caught or killed, then the flash flys will come in handy. To put them into greatest effect, you will want to use them right before Diablos charges you. The reason I say this is because, although it takes some pretty good timing, on both environmental tips, the Diablos will not turn away if it is on the path of charging. After all of that, you should be able to complete your mission on hunting the Diablos. Hopefully, this was really helpful to somebody out there still struggling. If I did help, or you feel the need to correct me if I misspelled or anything, please do. Your welcome to anyone and everyone. Good day.

Anyone wonder why he has wings in the first place? All he uses them for is to dig.

Diablos is often seen as a wall for a lot of players new to the series. If you feel like you breezed through the game but are stuck at Diablos, slow down, sheathe your weapon and just run around watching his attacks. All of his attacks are extremely telegraphed and easy to avoid with an obvious wind up. For his burrow, simply run perpendicular to the direction he is coming at you from and he will miss if he is not enraged. If he is enraged and he does a burrow, you may still get hit by this because he comes up much faster and closer to you, so either superman dive to avoid the damage or use a screamer pod as soon as he burrows to give yourself a damage opportunity. If your weapon is sheathed and you just keep running or even just jogging in a circle around him, none of his attacks will hit you allowing you to easily learn his attacks and his tells. He hits very very hard, often hard enough to 1 shot you if you're fighting him without higher level armor so take it slow and get familiar with his moves. He is designed specifically to punish mistakes, and becomes one of the easiest monsters in the game once you learn him due to the telegraphed nature of his attacks. This advice is applicable to most monsters, so try this any time you feel like you've hit a wall and found a monster you can't beat.

Frustrating, cheating monster. Has a larger reach than its model, gets up from prone in less than a second and attacks relentlessly - One screwup can lead to a KO from full, no amount of button mashing will save you, enjoy the faint. As a hammer user, you can cheese him by luring him to a ramp and jump attacking him over and over. In order to get him to follow you outside of bonds, he needs to burrow. Avoid the "sandfall" room where he goes to rest, there's no point in fighting him there, wait for him to burrow and run outside.

For anyone farming the horns: Bring any weapon with sleep (or a Palico weapon, will take longer though) and try to get it to sleep as fast as possible. Then just put 2 Mega Barrel Bombs next to it's head and wake it up with your strongest attack to the head. That is usually enough to break one horn and damage the other one. Good luck.
