Stygian Zinogre Combat Info

• Kinsect Extracts:
  • Red: Head/Forelegs
  • Orange: Chest/Back/Hindlegs
  • White: Tail
• Enraged mode: Turns red and has large AOE attacks
• Its tail, while severable, is very tough and tenderizing it before attacking it is recommended.
• While Stygian Zinogre is charging up, he will call down a row of "lightning" strikes (Dragon Element) down either side of his body. You can stand under his head for free hits.
• Its powered-up state is cancelled when it flinches or is toppled. When its hide toughens, it becomes more vulnerable to elemental attacks.
• Hunters can catch Dracophage Bugs on Stygian Zinogre by knocking him down while he is in his charged state, then positioning themselves near the monster's back and using the Capture Net. 
  
  • When using the Capture Net, be sure to aim for the back. Using the Capture Net on other parts of Stygian Zinogre's body will have no effect.
  • Hunters can also obtain Stygian Zinogre Dragonlocks using this method.
  • If the hunter successfully catches any Dracophage Bugs using this method, the time that Stygian Zinogre remains in its charged state will be significantly decreased.
