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 or Noios. 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.

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.

This fight is relatively easy if you played previous games and used the blangonga weps to fight, literally the same move set and highly predictable charges. Just bait him in the pillars and hack at the horns until both are off for majestic horn drops. Only thing is that tail pain to chop off.

He's pretty tough but it really pays off. His weapons do extreme damage and have ice (that's something, I guess). His armour's okay too, it's a bit bulky though... somebody needs to fire the person that designs the armour at cap com :/

The first time I got really good armour I went out and hunted a diablos, got stunned, and watch it use its ram attack on me. "Oh god I'm dead" *kills 1/8 of my health bar* O_O MAGIC

If I may offer some advice on fighting this... thing, the wings are a weak point, but they can't be broken. I usually try to go for wings first to reduce mobility, but Diablos' will not break. Instead, go for the head first and get those horns broken off. The hit boxes on those things are gigantic and breaking them will severely limit his reach.

Glacial Cannon I Gunlance with Legiana Helm, Vambraces, Coil, Odogaron Chestplate, Anja Greaves. Makes this guy pretty simple, just hold up guard whenever he does anything and use the Guard Stabs, Shelling, and occasionally dash stab.

I started getting hurt a lot less, once I figured out a handy tell of his. Whenever he starts taking a few slow steps forward, RUN! He's about to charge. Even if you're behind him, he can do a quick 180 turn and charge straight at you. I used to get hit by this a lot, because did not look at all like a windup for a damaging attack.
At this point, his burrowing attack had stopped being a problem for me. After all, he leaves himself open for so long when he's climbing out of the ground. Once avoiding it becomes second nature, it changes from a nuisance to an opportunity.

I feel like lately, he has just been spamming his Dig attack, first time I fought him, he seemed a hard but fair boss, now he just wants to dig, an I have been pretty miffed from him doing it three times in a row, pops out, digs down and pops out moments later, I understand the need for a screamer pod but this is insanity lol

Most annoying Boss in Monster Hunter history. In every Quest there are two of them (in High rank). and they are always together in one zone. Even if it's limping it's nowhere near death. First I was like: Yeah I'll farm it to build Cera-Ringbeuger, but everytime I did the Quest there was a Diablos too and they teamed up and ragdolled me throu the map. Not worth it. Way to hard boss for way to low pay.

For heavy bowgun's fighting the diablos. Just keep distance once he starts trying to attack you keep the distance at a range that you can hit his horns. Once those horns are off light it up. Load up wyvern heart if you want to get up close and deal some serious damage or if your a wyvern snipe get your self positioned to a reasonable position and fire the shot either at the chest or the back. Good luck hunters and may the tides show your luck. : 3

Easy way to kill him is to use lance and powerguard his extremely slow telegraphed attacks. Easy mode.

This thing is fun to mess with one high rank cause you can dance around him and he'd still not hit you lol. I do have to say that this boi is like a triceratops on steroids. All in all I kinda enjoy this fight.

All these people trash talking Diablos and I'm just sitting here thinking "Why is its species 'Flying Wyvern'?"
