Rathian Details & Locations

 

Rathian Combat Info

  • Fires mhw-fire-damage Fire Element projectiles at hunters and monsters.
  • Can charge up a powerful attack that engulfs target area in flames, causing fireblight-status-effect-mhwFireblight
  • Attacks with its tail, inflicting mhw-poison-status-effectPoison status.
  • It's weak to mhw-dragon-damageDragon Element and mhw-thunder-damageThunder Element.
  • Susceptible to stun Stun, Weak to Flash Bomb
  • Kinsect Extract:
    • Red: Head, Neck
    • Orange: Body, Back, Left Leg, Right Leg
    • White: Left Wing, Right Wing
    • Green: Tail
  • Come prepared with fire-resistant armor, and neuter its poison attacks by severing its tail. Be careful when stealing an egg from its nest, for a Rathian will chase an egg thief to the ends of the New World
  • Hunters can break the head, wings, and tail. Those are the weak spots.
  • Do NOT try to trigger a Turf War between Rathian and Rathalos. They will happily gang up on you instead since they're a pair. If you're fighting one and the other is in the map, a loud roar will signify that other coming to help its mate. Also if one is retreating to its nest to sleep, the other will be there to guard. Always carry dung pod when you see this pair in the same map.

      i heard she was way harder in the old games, some say her back flips were unpredictable. I guess were lucky to have this version of Rathian.

        Fought MR Rathian 3 times each time got 2 rubies, 2 rubies no mantles in each mission. That would be great if I needed 6 rubies but I don't need 6 rubies I need 1 mantle, but I got 6 rubies, 2 rubies each mission. I fought her 6 times, I got 2 rubies each time! In 3 mission I got 6 Rathian Rubies! No mantle, I got 0 mantles I need 1 but I got 6 rubies!

          The Rathian Hunting Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 50 minute hunting test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the nest. The poison spam speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [Diving screech] A single hit should be landed each time you hear this sound. [fireball shot] Remember to bring antidotes, and run as long as possible. The third time you fail to slay Rathian , your test is over. The test will begin on the quest start. On your mark, get ready, quest start.

                  Seems like if a Rathalos and a Rathian are in the same map, they will help each other : hit one of those two and the other will rush over the whole map at you to protect his comrade. They can deal friendly fire but will never fight among themselves. Can be really hard cause they can also track you down everywhere if you try to flee instead make one of them fleeing.

                    This thing has one of the most infuriating attacks in the game, that stupid loop charge that it will repeat over and over, staring at you just as you're getting up and then repeating it's little waddle 4 more times in a row. Rathalos doesn't do this, and neither sub-species will do it, but the standard Rathian just loves to do this.
