That was a weakened, downed Shara. If it had been on it's feet, it would have put up quite a fight. Maybe it would've even killed the Nergi. And if you don't know if it's a male or female, so just say it.
Yep. If you use a heavy weapon, you better predict every single movement of his otherwise you won't have many opportunities to inflict the necessary damage to him. I just used aquashot with sticky spam + ate for safeguard to solo him so I could relief myself from chasing him around and also I could completely ignore his dps check mechanic this way.
This is a paste from a comment I did somewhere else, I hope it helps: Use weapons with high elemental damage. The best elements are [Fire] for [Ice active mode], [Ice] for [Fire active mode] and [Dragon] to always do elemental damage in every elemental mode. He starts with a different element, Ice active or Fire active, depending on the name of the quest. To prevent Alatreon from going to the opposite element break his horns during dragon phase( they are only breakable during the [Dragon] phase). Before changing elements he does Escaton Judgement (nova). He follows this order when changing: [Starting element] -> [Dragon + Escaton Judgement] -> [Opposite of starting element]. He does his nova around 5 to 7 minutes into the fight and with weakening it once is enough to outheal it. Bring Astera Jerky, Great Sushifish Scale, Max Potions and Ancient Potions to survive the nova. Use Safi'jiiva's set to increase elemental damage; also it has enough space for defensive skills, 3 levels of Evade Window and free 40 Affinity. Make sure to equip blight resistance, knockout resistance and health boost as defensive skills. Don't forget to fully upgrade your armor and put a health regen augment on your weapons. Before the fight leave your cat in camp and eat for Feline Insurance. Combat Tips: 1-During the fight try to stay near the front legs, it's the safest spot and has the best elemental hitzones. 2-DO NOT run around, it will make you deal less damage and trigger Alatreon's ranged attacks. 3-You can roll away and through almost every [Lighting] attack Alatreon does, and those are the ones with the most openings. 4-The Fire attack with multiple explosions must be rolled away first and after the center explosion happens roll back in, he is open until the last explosion. 5-When he flies up and does an AOE fire or ice breath attack pointing beneath him : clutch and tenderize if you want. 6-If he is flying just stay under him and attack the rear legs or the tail. 7-In the air he does two or three claw attacks depending wether he is enraged or not. Well, when he is done doing it he goes into a little rest animation in which you can cluth or attack. 8-Always try to stay close to him and don't panic, his strongest attacks give pretty good openings. 9-Beware of physical attacks, those give dragonblight and knock you out easily ( Thats why you bring blight resistance and knockout resistance) 10-I recommended you to do a few practice hunts just to learn the patterns and get used to the flow of the fight. As a last piece of advice, please, do the hunt solo, it will give you higher chances of survival and it lowers the DPS check, plus Alatreon will always stay close to you. Please ask if you have more questions or tell me if I missed something. Good luck.
@@Wasa8i2 nevermind, he's dead he has a lot less hp than i first thought... Anyway, now im gonna kill all his family drink their blood and wear their skin for the pain he caused to me.
Yeah, I always hunt with my brother, so I don't have a solo build made yet honestly and all the randoms I get just try to brute force it, so the horn breaks a lot
Another tip: If he starts charging his escaton judgement, and you do not remember doing that special trip - do not just stand an wait or run around. Instead, you should quickly abandon quest to save your consumables.
Bruh, I would need to clear my inventory at least 500 times for my rarest consumables to run out. Just bet on luck, so that if you just forgot the trip, you won't abandon your team mates
Meanwhile Team Darkside: "Let us introduce the Jerky Boys" (With widerange and speed eating, you can outheal escaton judgment, if you get the timing on the jerky just right)
If he does escaton judgement before having been knocked out at least once, just abandon the quest, at least it won't count the items you used and you won't waste them.
@@m.a.3137 can he be clutch clawed then slingered anywhere? Because if its the head then all he is going to do is immediately knock you off unless aa lance user does it.
This fight is the summation of someone over at Capcom getting asked what to do to make a "hard" fight, and after wiping the cocaine off his nose, he said "Fuck it, just reskin the Behemoth fight with extra steps."
Wait. What if we only THOUGHT Handler was lazing about unhelpfully this whole time...what if this whole time she's been secretly helping us take down every monster with surgical precision. What if Alatreon is only this difficult because it's the first time she took the training wheels off and left us to our own flailing devices...What if we just assume everyone is calling us the Sapphire Star when they're really looking over our shoulder at the unassuming monster murderbag behind us... ;P
The rest of the world... No problem with the handler, kinda charming..... Americans: " grrr, she's annoying saying " pard" and " we"' did it, I hate her, Soo annoying,".....and we wonder why it's been over 10 years since the last American console release
*Easy Mode* = Ignore Elements DPS and Breaking Horns , Go full Meta DPS and Equip Fortify. Eat few supernovas, You will be Carted sure but Alatreon will be dead since its health is not that high for Solo Player Divine Beassing 5+Safeguard Meal helps too
Please write in caps lock that this strategy is only for solo players, the more clear is this comment the less randoms will use this strategy in multiplayer and cart us all
@@xailonut8763 Thanks, Sherlock. I couldn't figure it out myself in ages... My comment was not about "I don't know what to do", my comment was about "I know what I am FORCED to do and think it's dumb".
you need to hit it in the boulders and not the empty rocks. Tbh it's really dumb cause you cant launch him into a wall like that every time, depending on the position. If you don't wallbang him= no hornbreak = screwed.
"Alatreon is readying a big attack! Get your healing items ready!" *Intense Preparing to Chug Health Pots and Jerky* Has Fainted Has Fainted Has Fainted """"FUUUUUUUUU...!""""
That's on the first day. Now, during ESCATON JUDGEMENT, you all the hunters chug the health booster (x4) together then either start sharpening their melee weapon or cont hitting alatreon. Don't even bother to heal.
God dammit he's annoying lol. You can knock him out of the air if you clawshot, punch his face, and then trigger like most fliers. I was able to still hit his feet while he was flying with sns. Unlike safi they thankfully made his feet weak spots.
As a hammer main.....this fight with how many times it has killed me using sheer stupidity can get thrown in trash can and then added more trash on it then take it out to the side walk so I never have to deal with it again
Hammers and Greatswords are just given the middle finger in this fight. Had to built an entire Light Bowgun build out of the Alatreon gun using all the materials of my failed attempts.
Do note that breaking his horns will only prevent him from shifting to the opposing element for one cycle. If you dont break them after judgment before he does it again, he will switch on the next cycle. Since he only has 2 horns, you can only do this twice so make sure you take him out by the cycle he switches or else, you know what's going to happen.
The annoying thing is when I feel like my team is doing well, but because we didn't get that DPS check we get carted no matter what. It sucks when everything is going well outside of that one Judgement attack.
Well, seems like you only imagine you are doing well. Honestly, this quest is tough, but really not that hard if you are decent at this game. The only problem have players who don't play other weapons but Heavy Hitters. But then again, as Hammer main I managed to beat him with dual blades. Maybe git gud?
@@tiewkiat that's phemento though, apart from the fact that he is probably a cyborg and not a regular human anymore, he probably also went through dozens of failed attempts until he finally got one successful attempt
My team and I already figured out the mechanics here but still spent 6 hours unable to beat him. Really don’t enjoy how high the dps check. And you can’t swap weapons to be able to take advantage to his changing weaknesses. One person will be doing good damage to the dps check but another will be contributing nothing to his dps check no matter how strong your hits are. It’s basically better to use dragon or thunder since it counts to the elemental dps check we found. That being said we still can’t get past the second nova. Came into this fight excited and now I just hate it
If you are struggling, try crafting Alatreons LBG. It can be crafted without needing to kill, you just need to break the horns and pick up shiny drops. The LBG rapid fires every elemental ammo, so you can build to make use of multiple elements, like Fire and Ice if you struggle to break the horns.
I am so done with this fight right now. No matter what weapons I have used, or the rest of my group of used, we never manage to deal enough elemental damage to suppress it.
I have to say, now that I have managed to beat him, I'm kinda bummed at this fight. It's an exceptional fight, which is quite challenging up until Escaton. Sorry but that mechanic is just obnoxious. I'll probably get the armor and never fight Alatreon again, I'm afraid. A damn shame considering how good this fight is besides the dps check.
Imma get the long sword, hammer, dual swords and that's it. And if they require too many alatreon parts I'm not gonna bother, I already hunted him once, that's all I need I got the pendant, I'm done
I'm sad they have done this to one of the best monsters in the franchise, I wish new players had the same experience as those who fought it in the older games as it was amazing
@@zackfarrel8561 he's basically a non siege Safi jiiva but with that bullshit dps check mechanic.. more people are giving up on this game.. i just wish capcom has a dropbox where we can put our complaints about mhw.... not cool.
Killed it after a few runs: I had to forge that Guild Huntin Horn for water as the Ice horn I forged proved troublesome (I didn't have any elemental horns up to snuff). I also took speed eatting lvl3, free meal lvl3, and wide range lvl 5: "I didn't say you could die". Temporal Mantle and Health Booster Spray. So I played my doots (attk def stam health boosting). Sprinkled some water on the dragon. Drank away the super move in the health spray. Kept an eye on team health, ate Null Berries if anyone had dragon blight, and latched onto it's head when it fell over to weaken it.
eveofmana his hunting horn has good synergy with the set bonus as well if you’re looking for a decent horn. The elemental effectiveness up, elemental attack up work, and resist blight up (up elemental dmg increases due to this as well)works well with the resistance = elemental dmg increase. Also negate blight reduces the need for null berries practically. Alternatively you could craft a safi elemental horn with the same song set (elemental melody 2 I believe).
I’ve tried all day and still can’t beat him, the whole fight is setup to be as artificially difficult as possible, dumb dps checks, no switching weapons, hard to avoid attacks, and element switching
I just tried it for the first time before seeing this video and I felt so bad for everyone who joined my quest thank you so much you always help me out
Thanks for saying "These are the cards we have been dealt" instead of "It is what it is" Alatreon has upset me too much to deal with that shit phrase..
I beat him twice so far, with one victory coming from a network glitch that made the judgment attack do NOTHING. Happened when the party leader and a random left at the same time while he started his OHK move.
this is the clearest breakdown of the fight i've seen, definitely helps a lot! the elemental dps check sounds intimidating, but I guess it's good incentive for me to finally try out making an elemental build.
Super important thing to keep in mind about wall bashing: clutching on to his head when he isn't staggered or otherwise engaged in an attack will cause him to start a thunder attack move, which channels through the horns, either ripping through your Temporal, or ripping through you. Be careful, and don't clutch the head with Rocksteady.
@@KaeyinSe simpel answer no u can farcaster or position ur littel ass at the right place. Whit alatreon u cant and ur forced to play 1 specific built typ or u cart. Gs, ls, hgb, gunlace, lance, hammer, thos are all not elemental waepons so for mains of thos waepons this is just stupidity. Ps. Yes ls is debatable but non the less it dosnt hit fast enough for the cap exept the alatreon ls itslef. And hh users ate forced to spinn the horn as often as possibel ...
@@KaeyinSe The safi DPS check isn't NEARLY as extreme as what's being asked for Altreon. Even if you do manage to get the correct DPS you're still not guaranteed to survive unless you dump all your healing items multiple times unlike with Safi where all you have to do is hide behind a rock
I've fought him with ice when he starts in fire and broke his horn and everything and then he still switched to ice active late in fight and I became usless
This seems to be an additional DPS check put on the player. Basically, you can only reset his cycle twice, once for each horn, after that it becomes something of a race to kill Alatreon before performing a 4th Escaton Judgement. Ostensibly, Dragon element is an option, but I'd guess this makes the DPS check worse for most players. Probably better off bringing a couple of bombs or something to add to the DPS while using Fire/Ice.
@@ArtumTsumia, I am referring to TC XIX in SOLO mode. Dragon may be lower, but in terms of survivibility, its the most safe option for CASUAL player in SOLO cause it works all across element mode. On the other hand if you use certain element (ice or fire) and you fail to stagger the monster during certain element mode, you will be left helpless when he switch to other element which basically give zero element dps since your're ALONE. which will give you zero hope until he use his escaton judgement.
@@ArtumTsumia, I cannot count how many times I died from escaton judgement in SOLO mode because I dont deal enough elemental damage before he switch to other element since he has a habit of running and flying all accross the map hunting my palico , leaving me in complete disadvantage useless until he summon his ESCATON. this wont happen with DRAGON element weapon
here's what i planned (if ala starts with fire): use ice, and beat the shit out of it during fire phase. prioritize breaking the horns during dragon phase. once you do, continue to beat the shit out of it. survive the nova. rinse and repeat.
To clarify: breaking a horn only delays Alatreon from switching to the opposite element for one Escaton Judgement. Meaning if he starts in Fire Active and you break both horns at the right time, you have 3 cycles before he goes into Ice Active. This makes solo a bit harder than it needs to imho, but it's still manageable
This makes it tougher in 4 player, since you can’t control the DPS of your teammates. If you get through 4 cycles and haven’t killed him yet, you instantly lose (since no one is doing elemental DPS) granted he has pretty low base health so if you’re doing enough elemental DPS chances are you’re doing enough raw DPS as well.
Not sure why you'd do that considering they buffed the hell out of elemental weapons in iceborne. They literally gave you the perfect incentive to get some elemental weapons and you ignored that incentive. That's on you, not capcom.
@@Dangitbobby-KFP_Shaman With the exception of LS, Bow, LBG and DB, Raw still absolutely crushed Elemental on every single fight in Iceborne, by leagues - and the Raw weapons beat all of the Ele-based weapons too. Its legit only Alatreon that challenges this.
That’s what you get for not experimenting with variety, raw was the META in world, there are like 5 set bonuses to boost element on everything now and you still focus raw even after NEB got nerfed from 10% -> 5%? That’s all on you
Just something as a tip consideration. If you play insect glaive, you can also consider bringing an ice weapon + fire kinsect or vice versa. that way you can at least some adequate damage even when its on the same element as your weapon.
No farcasters, forced elemental weapon usage with the horribly unbalanced elemental damage system in World, and an unavoidable nova that relies on elemental damage to weaken it. It's a trifecta of "You thought it was fair, but it was I, DIO! Er, DEVS!" The nova doesn't feel like I'm fighting Alatreon. It feels like I'm fighting the devs. The rest of the fight is great, but that Nova is cheap.
Alatreon has higher element hitzones on his legs (more on front) and takes extra damage when enraged. So if you knock him down with clutch claw in ice/fire make sure to aim for the legs (which is easy if you have short ranged small swords) and if you topple him in dragon aim for the head (but be careful not to trip up/launch teammates)
Me and my friends beat it with each having a gobbler jewel in the armor to consume the jerkys faster. we beat it first try and after farming it for a while we got all weapons max for further testing.
Exactly. Monster Hunter was always about the very different ways you could go out and tackle a monster; you really had the 50 minute timer back then and you weren't limited to some MMO mechanic shit
I like the tension it creates. It also becomes redundant , once you learned the fight. It takes some time and failures, sure. I hate relating everything to dark souls, but this boss want you to beat it and the joy was big once we did. We did not fail once after we beat him the first time.
@Hammer Go Bonk! Such mechanics are not MMO exclusive. From a design perspective i find it much better than tanky enemies where the fight draws behind the 30 minute mark. Alatreon can be killed quite fast. I prefer that over overly long fights against arc tempered monsters.
@@Vashetrockner Dark souls wouldn't ever have these kinds of OHK dps check mechanics. The whole point of dark souls, in a way, can be seen by soul level 1 no death runs. If you yourself play well enough, it is entirely irrelevant what gear you use. Alatreon, on the other hand, just creates an artifical timesink to grind for elemental gear. He is not beatable, at least without carting, without grinding for it. If I don't commit to the artificial timesink of grinding for a frostcraft greatsword build, for instance, I am literally forced to die to his Escaton Judgement. Terrible game design and completely out of line with what the game, or this action rpg genre as a whole, wants to achieve.
Haven’t defeated him yet, pretty great fight though his elemental shift is pretty garbage to be very blunt. Edit: I really enjoy the fight but man without any victories thus far it’s actually rather draining after a while. Not demoralizing just, draining. Update: Just defeated him, first victory with three randoms then one left with just two which were two I tell you incredibly competent Charge Blade users! Hurray! And with next to no rewards! Good ole Alatreon!
Try following thid strategy while soloing. I beat him 3 times now (all solo cause teammates are shit) anf its still hard but at least you have a lot more control over the fight.
Stick to dragon and thunder weapons and be extremely aggro. His elemental shifts make ice or fire extremely powerful against him but makes the other person using the opposing element doesn’t contribute to the element dps check
Just finsihed soloing it albiet taking 20 minutes. Some tips: 1) use safi armour. The elemental resistance is really helpful and also more importantly the evade window skill. Make sure you have at least evade window 3 to dodge through the attacks. 2) having said that, it is crucial to dodge alatreons attacks and counter immediately. Some attacks are really dragged out like the fire blast that expands outwards. If you manage to dodge the middle blast you will have an fairly good window to counter and deal dmg 3) no matter how safe you feel it is to just attack the hind legs, you HAVE TO aim for the head at dragon state. Learn the moves, dodge the attacks and keep landing your hits on the head. The horn will break sooner than you think. All the best hunters!!
@@helpinghands7935 This actually is bullshit. It should be easier when specced for that fight, but shouldn't be literally impossible for any other build type. Arbitral gear checks are always bad design.
It is literally impossible to kill this thing with randos, I've been trying for hours and I didn't even come close once, that nova leaves no margin for error in multiplayer. I have yet to try to solo, I don't think I can do it though since as a LBG main I am forced to die to restock ammo, but at this point I have to give it a try.
I also main LBG and was wondering how I'd go about without beign able to restock. Made a pretty meme-ish build that would not need to be restocked or atleast very low chance to run out of ammo, called it the ''avatar''. I used safi + xeno LBG, frost charm(or blaze/bolt charm) and filled the rest in with bolt/blaze/frost deco's. Gives you atleast 3 elements which are boosted, 4 elements to shoot(5 if you count dragon). Setup was done in a 2 party hunt, damage was pretty even with DB friend. Afterwards I made the alatreon LBG (RF every element) and used it with the same deco's etc and got some solo runs off without needing to restock ammo.
Been seeing people on Reddit saying they got their first kill in solo. I had a similar experience with raging brachy, just couldn’t get a competent random squad and finally beat it solo. Also unlike Safi, Alatreon scales, so it would have lower stats/dps checks.. etc solo
Its the Behemoth all over again, also as a Hunting Horn main, can’t I help mitigate the area damage he does? I mean I’ll say World has nerfed our songs somewhat, otherwise the his elements wouldn’t be that much of a headache.
@@vacuity7147 no way, i just smacked extremoth for the first time with g rank equip (after failing it 50+ times) but killed alatreon with me and a friend after 2 hours. You can beat alatreon with less then 4 people but extreme behemoth was something else imo. Mind you i had never done bad against behemoth and only died to his meteor. The point is that alatreon does scale with player number and Behemoth didnt plus the time was way less then normal. Just my 2 cents
@@ambarghosh7433 wouldn't say it's a harder fight, the only thing that's been getting players carted is Alatreons nova attack. The dps check is mainly the big carting factor. He, as a fight, is predictable and easy to dodge.
Pro tip: the first weapon you should make is the alatreon light bow gun. Its got 60 capacity of all elements and rapid fire on them as well. Bring some stuff to craft more ammo and you’re good to go. P.S.-safi beta armor is good with this weapon. If you wanna see my build for how I soloed alatreon just ask :)
Right?! I have literally just reached the same conclusion. I really hate the direction of the new monsters, cause they are not making fights harder. They are making them more bullshit, and with that, taking the fun away from the fights, so I'm not wasting a single more second in this fight.
@@SubOrYoureGay @Kev adding an artificially difficult monster that only responds to certain armor sets and weapons is sucky, yo. they give you an armory full of weaopns and different armors that you can't use. i understand the elemental damage which is fine, but its just all artificial. this monster isnt fun but i do plan on beating it once i get the ONLY armors and weapons that work. just because people die doesn't mean it's hard. lol
Ugh, I miss them just adding cool strong monsters without all these mechanics. I spent forever making this awesome rage-brach lance set and I guess now it’s useless. 800 hours in this game. I’ll wait for fatalis.
This is giving me anxiety lol. I always have had a challenge with Alatreon, mainly due to being a solo hunter. But I will have to get a team for this fella
Naw you can do it each monster in mh has a set of around 4-7 moves . The best way if you're starting the game out is go in a match and dont expect to win just wait and focus on every move set everytime they attack back up a bit and you'll see a lot of openings to a monster . Once you have the knowledge then everything is easy to react and counter to . Me myself is above average I say but was willing to defeat altreon the 2nd time with no problems because I remember every single of his attacks either by what I said or watch a video on the match . Today I probably got 220+ altreon kills helping people !
they gave the GS an elemental modifier of 1 for this fight. its attrocious to fight him with it regardless, since you just barely have a breather. It feels like he is running around more than a fucking fanged wyvern.
@@Taeblackbelt Implying I don't know how to play? Whatever your reason for that reply. I still killed the monster with a Great Sword. So yeah, sorry for not being something else. I just really like the weapon.
@@NinjaXFiles my apologies for the assumption. But the whole time since launch, i use GS too, but try joining others when they just kik u on the alteron run everytime, even make false reports on xbox. Not just once. I even got ban due to the reports.
One thing I've discovered is that you should try and stay on its front legs. Many of his attacks have a long recovery animation (expecially when Alatreon breathes ice in front of him, when he summons lightning and when he breathes fire in a 180° angle), and if you're close to him you have some time to deal damage. Plus when Alatreon uses lightning (the attack where lightning strikes around him), they never strike near the front legs (for DB users that's a good moment to Demon Dance).
Dont fret too much over that, even if you've just cleared the game, you have access to plenty of good ice choices, even Beotodus weapons somehow aren't garbage, its a quick fix to have the best element.

@@thegreatfitzgerald2660 yeah no, just use safi and dodge is not great advice. I mean sure you should be dodging and safi is strong. but that's the equivalent of just saying "well don't die then."
Heres my setup. Build the Xenojiva LBG, the one that has built in spare shot. Youll have 2 ammo types, water and thunder. Use water when its in fire shift. Use thunder when its in ice shift. Use any agaisnt dragon shift. Youll have enough ammo for the entire fight since youre using 2 different shots. When you defeat it, make Alatreons LBG wich has 5 goddamn elements. Now use fire vs its ice mode. Use ice vs its fire mode. Use dragon/water/thunder for its dragon mode. After u get this weapon use it to grind for the other weapons Get full Safijivas armor it works wonders with LBGs. U get full blight resistance (lv3) easily. Evade window is godlike and easily upgraded to lv4. Get lv3 vitality , duh. Get crit eye lv7. Get crit boost lv3.
Are we just going to forget Extremoth and ancient leshen here. I swear world generally just has some really BS fight mechanics just stick there for the fun of it
This fight is amazing, except for this one mechanic. This one mechanic is so fundamentally broken and garbage under any standard of great design, that it single handedly makes the fight garbage. I cannot believe any thinking adult would come up with this insult to monster hunter.
I'm a greatsword main and yeah its difficult but i welcome the challenge, world and iceborne were too easy, plus he's a black dragon he should be super powerful....
@@Mark-es5tx nop thats not git gud thats bad game disign. Yes u could learn an other waepon but for 1 singel monster thats not even worth the efort bc the armor is bs and the waepons are only realy good against alatreon him self.

We break the horn. OK....so....when are we getting this notification that we can survive the judgement Alatreon: Hahaha...you're in danger
I found out that the jerky item is the easiest item to use to survive the judgement, just eat it when your hp gets close to half and you should survive with no problems.
I enjoy teo. But not Luna. And ruiner. And nami. Vaal and kush are terrible. Alatreon. Idk. I don’t have the proper gear for him as of now so I can’t reliably say. I have solo killed him once tho with beotodus charge blade.

I think we may need to make our grievances with this pattern of hunts known to Capcom. This spells bad precedent if they keep going forward with this type of artificial difficulty. I wouldn't even mind the DPS check move IF it had varying levels of power and it was practical to tank it or avoid it. However this shit they've started with Behemoth is not something I want in Monster Hunter.
@@Ergeniz I honestly agree bro, im not sure thier reasoning for adding DPS checks like Behemoth and Alatreon but hopefully they chill. I manages to beat it with the same discord group. It took everything we had and was mentally draining. Now to do it 2 more times to get the set smh
Yea, the check requirements are just way too damn high. They expect you to run a near perfect build, but what if some people just don't have the patience and time to grind the shit out of Kulve or Safi, since both shitlords are tied to RNG???
Same with HBG, Max decos on element and all 5 Safi armor and still can only do 70ish per shot with Ice ammo, then cannot restock. Die to first nuke every time
@@hariman7727 I used all my materials on my poison and then what was left on my blast. To be honest I really hate fighting safi too, even when I first started I could never really find groups capable of taking it down. it doesn't help that the Xbox community isn't particularly very good at maintaining consistency, for instance about a month after safi the least you could see five or six rooms filled with full Hunter's but nobody actually running the event...
If you guys are still having trouble with this the fight is much easier with duel blades in my opinion as u can evade with a good and keep attacking afterwards. I managed to kill it a few times. Stick to his back legs for the most part and attack his head when he does specific attacks that leaves it still for a few secs. With the correct build you can really enjoy this fight. Good luck 👍
How to get ths gear: Step 1: equip your palico with plunderblade Step 2: start quest Step 3: let the cat do the work End progress you'll be able to craft the armor eventually 😂
mohd shahrizan pluderblade does work to get most of the materials for crafting but im pretty sure there is one material that can only be obtain by killing it like raging brachydios
This video was very useful: I managed to break both his horns and survive his Escaton Judgement, so it's only a matter of time before I finally down him now.
I wish it had at least SOME mechanics reminiscent of the original hunt in Tri/3U. The Binders to keep it still and walls to pin its horns into (especially with how clutch claws cam be a great help there). I can understand the lack of binders, given the locale but not the walls at least.
@@Krimm664 you CAN solo it but its built much more for multiplayer; not as heavily as Extremoth but close. Especially when it comes to DPSing and keeping the weaknesses rotating
@@Krimm664 While yes, it is easier solo, being able to beat it solo requires the perfect build set up so that you can meet the DPS checks, and stay alive through the rest of the fight. It also requires more personal skill. And getting the perfect build to fight it, pretty much requires farming either Kulve or Safi, both of which are multiplayer content(Kulve can be solo'd, if you have a set capable of soloing Alatreon). As well as a shit ton of RNG for those deco's.
I threw myself at this thing so many times with randoms... Then once with a single friend. So my tip for killing Alatreon is: Get another decent player, or suck it up solo.
-> Watches this video ->get psyched, build max lvl ice glaive,lvl up element augment,ice kinsect ->tries solo and group ->loses 10 more rounds and rage quit.
I used to use insect glaive but switched to dual blades JUST for Alatreon. They do 50% element each hit. I've killed him more than 20 times, some solo, and the first time I beat him was about 3-4 weeks ago
I haven't beat Alatreon as of yet, and I have to ask: When you beat him, the 3U quest completion theme played. Was that edited or actually in the game?
One more small tip. When you see the very obviously telegraphed lighting move, the one that zaps randomly and not the kirin walls of lightning, you can safely stand where Alatreon's front legs are and whack him to kingdom come.
the first time i fought him i was completely annihilated, but after learning his opening and movesets as well as using proper build he was extremely fun to fight
It’s terrible. I am a raw damage player who never keeps elemental weapon. Jz, how would i want to waste another hours to farm a proper ele weapon? Even the lightning and water is garbage to achieve the check. That burns the fuck out of me.
@@ArthyenR everyone I know hates his fight in previous gen, you are like first person I've heard praise it, people love his weapons and armors but hate the fight
@@furner837 the Alatreon fight in previous games was difficult, but not impossible. Also, the fight was fun! This fight in MHW is pretty much impossible for almost all the players that are not "pro" gamers/streamers. Also, IT IS NOT FUN AT ALL!
I hate this fight. I've literally been doing it for 10 hours and I cannot do it. I can't even get past the first dps check 9/10 times. I've gotten past the second one ONCE. in TEN HOURS. I am not a great hunter, this is my first mh game and I know I'm not super good at it. but this fight is actually bullshit.
Don't worry man, if you've gotten far enough to at least fight him, you should be proud of that already. This guy is END GAME levels hard, and in previous games, even then not everyone fought him.
Same here. Been at this for hours and I can't come close to beating him. Escaton Judgement always wipes my team everytime. Tried solo and I can't beat him there either. Just got off the game to take a break because i'm ready to break my controller.
@@Lunar_Eclipse27 i had to call in a super try hard friend of a friend who used a dual element hbg. I just kept the wings tender and my cat on healing. His cat on shieldspire and we managed To do it
I couldn't get a clear grasp on how the switching worked and thanks to your explanation I was able to solo Alatreon using Anjanath DB since I got the Ice Active Event one.
Thank you sooooo much for this video, It is the most actually help full tips I have seen so far. Much of the same has been going around but, not providing the necessary context to make it understandable. Thanks to this I might actually try my hand on the fight again, now that I know what signifies a survivable Nova, the horn breaks are not to much of a problem for me. Again thank you so much. AKA great video keep them up.
I'm over this monster honestly the whole time he's been out I have tried more than enough hours and still 4 people hitting him with elements and he doesn't stagger. You say deal enough elemental damage wtf how much does he need cause he doesn't stagger
"YOU NEED TO BREAK HIS HORN!" Well thank god he spent the entire time running or flying. Feels really good to fail to the dps check to a monster who you can't hit b/c heaven forbid you use a gs. Feh.
The post cart message if you haven't weakened the nova is the absolute worst, because it's immediately after carting, and the music has gone quiet, so it's impossible to miss.
So I just recently fought Alatreon for the first time. I broke both horns and wall bounced with a dropped rarest gem. I’m thinking oh damn I got this. He does the nova and I die. So I got my ass whooped. After a week of farming and strengthening my armor I finally beat him solo and now I can beat him without dying for the most part. Sometimes I dont do enough damage to lower the novas power. But I love this fight. Bout to move on to Fatalis.

Agreed but also the judgment better get changed
LoL he never stops to take a breather ha? I know the feeling hahaha so annoying
Yep. If you use a heavy weapon, you better predict every single movement of his otherwise you won't have many opportunities to inflict the necessary damage to him.
I just used aquashot with sticky spam + ate for safeguard to solo him so I could relief myself from chasing him around and also I could completely ignore his dps check mechanic this way.
@@thomast.4966 Isn't predicting how you're meant to hunt anyway?
This is a paste from a comment I did somewhere else, I hope it helps:
Use weapons with high elemental damage. The best elements are [Fire] for [Ice active mode], [Ice] for [Fire active mode] and [Dragon] to always do elemental damage in every elemental mode.
He starts with a different element, Ice active or Fire active, depending on the name of the quest. To prevent Alatreon from going to the opposite element break his horns during dragon phase( they are only breakable during the [Dragon] phase). Before changing elements he does Escaton Judgement (nova).
He follows this order when changing: [Starting element] -> [Dragon + Escaton Judgement] -> [Opposite of starting element]. He does his nova around 5 to 7 minutes into the fight and with weakening it once is enough to outheal it. Bring Astera Jerky, Great Sushifish Scale, Max Potions and Ancient Potions to survive the nova.
Use Safi'jiiva's set to increase elemental damage; also it has enough space for defensive skills, 3 levels of Evade Window and free 40 Affinity. Make sure to equip blight resistance, knockout resistance and health boost as defensive skills. Don't forget to fully upgrade your armor and put a health regen augment on your weapons. Before the fight leave your cat in camp and eat for Feline Insurance.
Combat Tips:
1-During the fight try to stay near the front legs, it's the safest spot and has the best elemental hitzones.
2-DO NOT run around, it will make you deal less damage and trigger Alatreon's ranged attacks.
3-You can roll away and through almost every [Lighting] attack Alatreon does, and those are the ones with the most openings.
4-The Fire attack with multiple explosions must be rolled away first and after the center explosion happens roll back in, he is open until the last explosion.
5-When he flies up and does an AOE fire or ice breath attack pointing beneath him : clutch and tenderize if you want.
6-If he is flying just stay under him and attack the rear legs or the tail.
7-In the air he does two or three claw attacks depending wether he is enraged or not. Well, when he is done doing it he goes into a little rest animation in which you can cluth or attack.
8-Always try to stay close to him and don't panic, his strongest attacks give pretty good openings.
9-Beware of physical attacks, those give dragonblight and knock you out easily ( Thats why you bring blight resistance and knockout resistance)
10-I recommended you to do a few practice hunts just to learn the patterns and get used to the flow of the fight. As a last piece of advice, please, do the hunt solo, it will give you higher chances of survival and it lowers the DPS check, plus Alatreon will always stay close to you.
Please ask if you have more questions or tell me if I missed something.
Good luck.

Another tip: If he starts charging his escaton judgement, and you do not remember doing that special trip - do not just stand an wait or run around. Instead, you should quickly abandon quest to save your consumables.

Do note that breaking his horns will only prevent him from shifting to the opposing element for one cycle. If you dont break them after judgment before he does it again, he will switch on the next cycle. Since he only has 2 horns, you can only do this twice so make sure you take him out by the cycle he switches or else, you know what's going to happen.

Make sure you pump your elemental dmg high. Just because you are seeing high dmg numbers does not mean you are doing enough elemental dmg.

Really don’t enjoy how high the dps check.
And you can’t swap weapons to be able to take advantage to his changing weaknesses. One person will be doing good damage to the dps check but another will be contributing nothing to his dps check no matter how strong your hits are. It’s basically better to use dragon or thunder since it counts to the elemental dps check we found. That being said we still can’t get past the second nova.
Came into this fight excited and now I just hate it
Me and some other randoms got past the 3rd nova but all sudden someone got killed and that's when I said I need a break.

Having to go through three novas is a bit much considering how hard it is to get through the first one.
Do it solo with a kkarr water or dragon weapon . It’s much easier .
@@AdeptKing you can kill him even before his 3rd nova
If you are struggling, try crafting Alatreons LBG. It can be crafted without needing to kill, you just need to break the horns and pick up shiny drops. The LBG rapid fires every elemental ammo, so you can build to make use of multiple elements, like Fire and Ice if you struggle to break the horns.

I am so done with this fight right now. No matter what weapons I have used, or the rest of my group of used, we never manage to deal enough elemental damage to suppress it.
I have to say, now that I have managed to beat him, I'm kinda bummed at this fight. It's an exceptional fight, which is quite challenging up until Escaton. Sorry but that mechanic is just obnoxious. I'll probably get the armor and never fight Alatreon again, I'm afraid. A damn shame considering how good this fight is besides the dps check.
Yeah I'll just get the weapons and be done with that crap it's just retarded how they made that.

Killed it after a few runs: I had to forge that Guild Huntin Horn for water as the Ice horn I forged proved troublesome (I didn't have any elemental horns up to snuff). I also took speed eatting lvl3, free meal lvl3, and wide range lvl 5: "I didn't say you could die". Temporal Mantle and Health Booster Spray.
So I played my doots (attk def stam health boosting). Sprinkled some water on the dragon. Drank away the super move in the health spray. Kept an eye on team health, ate Null Berries if anyone had dragon blight, and latched onto it's head when it fell over to weaken it.
eveofmana his hunting horn has good synergy with the set bonus as well if you’re looking for a decent horn. The elemental effectiveness up, elemental attack up work, and resist blight up (up elemental dmg increases due to this as well)works well with the resistance = elemental dmg increase. Also negate blight reduces the need for null berries practically. Alternatively you could craft a safi elemental horn with the same song set (elemental melody 2 I believe).
you are the real MVP

Man the first step it's having top tier elemental gear
this is the clearest breakdown of the fight i've seen, definitely helps a lot! the elemental dps check sounds intimidating, but I guess it's good incentive for me to finally try out making an elemental build.
Super important thing to keep in mind about wall bashing: clutching on to his head when he isn't staggered or otherwise engaged in an attack will cause him to start a thunder attack move, which channels through the horns, either ripping through your Temporal, or ripping through you. Be careful, and don't clutch the head with Rocksteady.
can't believe they actually gave a monster an attack you can't avoid no matter what...capcom done lost their minds

@@KaeyinSe The safi DPS check isn't NEARLY as extreme as what's being asked for Altreon. Even if you do manage to get the correct DPS you're still not guaranteed to survive unless you dump all your healing items multiple times unlike with Safi where all you have to do is hide behind a rock
I’ve fought Alatreon back in MH3U to now and this is..... Each attempt lasts 2 minutes before the whole team gets clapped.

I've fought him with ice when he starts in fire and broke his horn and everything and then he still switched to ice active late in fight and I became usless
@TC XIX use dragon
This seems to be an additional DPS check put on the player. Basically, you can only reset his cycle twice, once for each horn, after that it becomes something of a race to kill Alatreon before performing a 4th Escaton Judgement. Ostensibly, Dragon element is an option, but I'd guess this makes the DPS check worse for most players. Probably better off bringing a couple of bombs or something to add to the DPS while using Fire/Ice.
@@ArtumTsumia, I am referring to TC XIX in SOLO mode.
Dragon may be lower, but in terms of survivibility, its the most safe option for CASUAL player in SOLO cause it works all across element mode.
On the other hand if you use certain element (ice or fire) and you fail to stagger the monster during certain element mode, you will be left helpless when he switch to other element which basically give zero element dps since your're ALONE.
which will give you zero hope until he use his escaton judgement.
@@ArtumTsumia, I cannot count how many times I died from escaton judgement in SOLO mode because I dont deal enough elemental damage before he switch to other element since he has a habit of running and flying all accross the map hunting my palico , leaving me in complete disadvantage useless until he summon his ESCATON.
this wont happen with DRAGON element weapon
here's what i planned (if ala starts with fire): use ice, and beat the shit out of it during fire phase. prioritize breaking the horns during dragon phase. once you do, continue to beat the shit out of it. survive the nova. rinse and repeat.
To clarify: breaking a horn only delays Alatreon from switching to the opposite element for one Escaton Judgement. Meaning if he starts in Fire Active and you break both horns at the right time, you have 3 cycles before he goes into Ice Active. This makes solo a bit harder than it needs to imho, but it's still manageable
This makes it tougher in 4 player, since you can’t control the DPS of your teammates. If you get through 4 cycles and haven’t killed him yet, you instantly lose (since no one is doing elemental DPS) granted he has pretty low base health so if you’re doing enough elemental DPS chances are you’re doing enough raw DPS as well.
Having finally killed Alatreon, I can say that it is probably the least enjoyable monster I have ever hunted. The DPS check ruins it.
I'm so glad I've focused on non-elemental status weapons throughout my whole master rank only to be punished by it at the very end. Thanks Crapcom.
Not sure why you'd do that considering they buffed the hell out of elemental weapons in iceborne. They literally gave you the perfect incentive to get some elemental weapons and you ignored that incentive. That's on you, not capcom.
Onua Zorua yeah same I always use my raging brachy hammer but this fight just smacks you in the face even with elements
@@Dangitbobby-KFP_Shaman With the exception of LS, Bow, LBG and DB, Raw still absolutely crushed Elemental on every single fight in Iceborne, by leagues - and the Raw weapons beat all of the Ele-based weapons too.

@@Dangitbobby-KFP_Shaman yea its on me for playing with greatsword which cant fucking use elementals at all , my bad
That’s what you get for not experimenting with variety, raw was the META in world, there are like 5 set bonuses to boost element on everything now and you still focus raw even after NEB got nerfed from 10% -> 5%?
That’s all on you
Just something as a tip consideration. If you play insect glaive, you can also consider bringing an ice weapon + fire kinsect or vice versa. that way you can at least some adequate damage even when its on the same element as your weapon.
Must use elemental attacks and no far-casters? I smell artificial difficulty
You did not smell it. It's already in your nostrils.
This is stupid goddammit.
Pretty pungent.
I'd rather download 3 ultimate than fight Gary Stu over here
Like the old days of no restock.
No farcasters, forced elemental weapon usage with the horribly unbalanced elemental damage system in World, and an unavoidable nova that relies on elemental damage to weaken it. It's a trifecta of "You thought it was fair, but it was I, DIO! Er, DEVS!"
The nova doesn't feel like I'm fighting Alatreon. It feels like I'm fighting the devs.
The rest of the fight is great, but that Nova is cheap.
Alatreon has higher element hitzones on his legs (more on front) and takes extra damage when enraged. So if you knock him down with clutch claw in ice/fire make sure to aim for the legs (which is easy if you have short ranged small swords) and if you topple him in dragon aim for the head (but be careful not to trip up/launch teammates)
Me and my friends beat it with each having a gobbler jewel in the armor to consume the jerkys faster. we beat it first try and after farming it for a while we got all weapons max for further testing.
I like the fight and I understand how his fight works, but I hate the gimmick OHK. It feels like an MMO mechanic in a game that’s not an MMO
Exactly. Monster Hunter was always about the very different ways you could go out and tackle a monster; you really had the 50 minute timer back then and you weren't limited to some MMO mechanic shit
I like the tension it creates. It also becomes redundant , once you learned the fight. It takes some time and failures, sure. I hate relating everything to dark souls, but this boss want you to beat it and the joy was big once we did. We did not fail once after we beat him the first time.
@Hammer Go Bonk! Such mechanics are not MMO exclusive. From a design perspective i find it much better than tanky enemies where the fight draws behind the 30 minute mark. Alatreon can be killed quite fast. I prefer that over overly long fights against arc tempered monsters.
@@Vashetrockner Dark souls wouldn't ever have these kinds of OHK dps check mechanics. The whole point of dark souls, in a way, can be seen by soul level 1 no death runs. If you yourself play well enough, it is entirely irrelevant what gear you use.
Alatreon, on the other hand, just creates an artifical timesink to grind for elemental gear. He is not beatable, at least without carting, without grinding for it. If I don't commit to the artificial timesink of grinding for a frostcraft greatsword build, for instance, I am literally forced to die to his Escaton Judgement. Terrible game design and completely out of line with what the game, or this action rpg genre as a whole, wants to achieve.
Haven’t defeated him yet, pretty great fight though his elemental shift is pretty garbage to be very blunt.
Edit: I really enjoy the fight but man without any victories thus far it’s actually rather draining after a while. Not demoralizing just, draining.
Update: Just defeated him, first victory with three randoms then one left with just two which were two I tell you incredibly competent Charge Blade users! Hurray! And with next to no rewards! Good ole Alatreon!
Yeah me and some randoms almost beated him but the bs happened
I defeated him 6 times so far 5 with randoms 1 solo
Try following thid strategy while soloing. I beat him 3 times now (all solo cause teammates are shit) anf its still hard but at least you have a lot more control over the fight.
Stick to dragon and thunder weapons and be extremely aggro.
His elemental shifts make ice or fire extremely powerful against him but makes the other person using the opposing element doesn’t contribute to the element dps check
DevilGamingPanda congrats want a cookie?
Answer: You don’t.
Just finsihed soloing it albiet taking 20 minutes. Some tips:
1) use safi armour. The elemental resistance is really helpful and also more importantly the evade window skill. Make sure you have at least evade window 3 to dodge through the attacks.
2) having said that, it is crucial to dodge alatreons attacks and counter immediately. Some attacks are really dragged out like the fire blast that expands outwards. If you manage to dodge the middle blast you will have an fairly good window to counter and deal dmg
3) no matter how safe you feel it is to just attack the hind legs, you HAVE TO aim for the head at dragon state. Learn the moves, dodge the attacks and keep landing your hits on the head. The horn will break sooner than you think.
All the best hunters!!
Thanks for the guide, this has a LOT more detail than elitist dbags I've seen that simply say "Git gud"
I'm actually in a MHW group on Facebook with people giving tips nonstop. Various tips saying the same.
Newcomers are just as toxic.
"I can't use my usual meta builds to beat it this Monster it sucks".
The Subreddit had a couple days of absolute hateful "GIT GUT UNGA BUNGA BLAST NOOBS!" types being the same kind of jerks they likely rail against.
@@helpinghands7935 This actually is bullshit. It should be easier when specced for that fight, but shouldn't be literally impossible for any other build type. Arbitral gear checks are always bad design.
@@kacperkedziera1408 ... In a game where you're supposed to have a diverse armory to counter different monsters, ok buddy.
It is literally impossible to kill this thing with randos, I've been trying for hours and I didn't even come close once, that nova leaves no margin for error in multiplayer.
I have yet to try to solo, I don't think I can do it though since as a LBG main I am forced to die to restock ammo, but at this point I have to give it a try.
My first kill was with randoms. I guess it depends on luck.
Killed it on the second run with random, wasn't too bad.
I also main LBG and was wondering how I'd go about without beign able to restock.
Made a pretty meme-ish build that would not need to be restocked or atleast very low chance to run out of ammo, called it the ''avatar''.
I used safi + xeno LBG, frost charm(or blaze/bolt charm) and filled the rest in with bolt/blaze/frost deco's.
Gives you atleast 3 elements which are boosted, 4 elements to shoot(5 if you count dragon).
Setup was done in a 2 party hunt, damage was pretty even with DB friend.
Afterwards I made the alatreon LBG (RF every element) and used it with the same deco's etc and got some solo runs off without needing to restock ammo.
@@Jaevwyn lucky you. 4 hours with randoms and nothing. and im in xbox so no asian players.
Been seeing people on Reddit saying they got their first kill in solo. I had a similar experience with raging brachy, just couldn’t get a competent random squad and finally beat it solo. Also unlike Safi, Alatreon scales, so it would have lower stats/dps checks.. etc solo
Its the Behemoth all over again, also as a Hunting Horn main, can’t I help mitigate the area damage he does? I mean I’ll say World has nerfed our songs somewhat, otherwise the his elements wouldn’t be that much of a headache.
Man Behemoth is nothing compared to this. Dare I say, even Extremoth.
@@vacuity7147 What for real ? I still haven't beaten extrememoth and this guy is stronger. And all this and still it's not tempered.
But behemoth is actually doable without being outhealed
@@vacuity7147 no way, i just smacked extremoth for the first time with g rank equip (after failing it 50+ times) but killed alatreon with me and a friend after 2 hours. You can beat alatreon with less then 4 people but extreme behemoth was something else imo. Mind you i had never done bad against behemoth and only died to his meteor. The point is that alatreon does scale with player number and Behemoth didnt plus the time was way less then normal. Just my 2 cents
@@ambarghosh7433 wouldn't say it's a harder fight, the only thing that's been getting players carted is Alatreons nova attack. The dps check is mainly the big carting factor.
He, as a fight, is predictable and easy to dodge.
Thank you arekkz, this dragon is beating everything out of me lmao
Pro tip: the first weapon you should make is the alatreon light bow gun. Its got 60 capacity of all elements and rapid fire on them as well. Bring some stuff to craft more ammo and you’re good to go. P.S.-safi beta armor is good with this weapon. If you wanna see my build for how I soloed alatreon just ask :)
This isn’t a tip. This is subjective lmao
5:11 Standard Arrekz is so savage
First Monster Ive said "screw it, not fun."
Right?! I have literally just reached the same conclusion. I really hate the direction of the new monsters, cause they are not making fights harder. They are making them more bullshit, and with that, taking the fun away from the fights, so I'm not wasting a single more second in this fight.
2nd monster for me, Lunastra was my first.
Same man, monster is fun but not this bullcrap oneshot mechanic
You just suck
@@SubOrYoureGay @Kev adding an artificially difficult monster that only responds to certain armor sets and weapons is sucky, yo. they give you an armory full of weaopns and different armors that you can't use. i understand the elemental damage which is fine, but its just all artificial. this monster isnt fun but i do plan on beating it once i get the ONLY armors and weapons that work.
just because people die doesn't mean it's hard. lol
Ugh, I miss them just adding cool strong monsters without all these mechanics. I spent forever making this awesome rage-brach lance set and I guess now it’s useless. 800 hours in this game. I’ll wait for fatalis.
tfw fatalis have even more bullshit DPS check OHKO mechanism.....
I wouldn't get your hopes up for Fatalis. They're gonna rehash Behemoth's meteor til The Sun implodes.
Sam Hagar yep and now my main and favorite weapon rage brachy hammer is useless....f my life
Fatalis ohkos you if you just stand near it lol
Bro you're going to be in for a shock, because Fatalis will likely only be damageable by dragon element and Gunlance sets.
This is giving me anxiety lol. I always have had a challenge with Alatreon, mainly due to being a solo hunter. But I will have to get a team for this fella
Same here. Luckily I'm all about elemental builds but the issue I have is having the right armor set to dish out the damage needed
You can solo him. But it takes practise,.... a lot! You also might learn more about his move set going in solo.
Naw you can do it each monster in mh has a set of around 4-7 moves . The best way if you're starting the game out is go in a match and dont expect to win just wait and focus on every move set everytime they attack back up a bit and you'll see a lot of openings to a monster . Once you have the knowledge then everything is easy to react and counter to . Me myself is above average I say but was willing to defeat altreon the 2nd time with no problems because I remember every single of his attacks either by what I said or watch a video on the match . Today I probably got 220+ altreon kills helping people !
Impossible for me to even participate in this since I'm a Great Sword...
they gave the GS an elemental modifier of 1 for this fight.
its attrocious to fight him with it regardless, since you just barely have a breather. It feels like he is running around more than a fucking fanged wyvern.
Tell that to my Heavy bowgun its complete useless in the fight ._.
You i feel you. Everytime i see a fellow GS even with ice, in my goup. I just give em the good old kick
@@Taeblackbelt Implying I don't know how to play? Whatever your reason for that reply. I still killed the monster with a Great Sword. So yeah, sorry for not being something else. I just really like the weapon.
@@NinjaXFiles my apologies for the assumption. But the whole time since launch, i use GS too, but try joining others when they just kik u on the alteron run everytime, even make false reports on xbox. Not just once. I even got ban due to the reports.
One thing I've discovered is that you should try and stay on its front legs. Many of his attacks have a long recovery animation (expecially when Alatreon breathes ice in front of him, when he summons lightning and when he breathes fire in a 180° angle), and if you're close to him you have some time to deal damage. Plus when Alatreon uses lightning (the attack where lightning strikes around him), they never strike near the front legs (for DB users that's a good moment to Demon Dance).
That moment when you're up to fight the monster....
...and you don't have any good ice weapons xD
Dont fret too much over that, even if you've just cleared the game, you have access to plenty of good ice choices, even Beotodus weapons somehow aren't garbage, its a quick fix to have the best element.
use dragon, it's way more consistent for me. especially elemental longsword
maybe barioth will help next week? :)
What weapons do you recommand ASIDE FROM SAFI?
@@aetherwise2159 i used to play on ps4 until january, i'm now on pc and finished the game, farmed a lot and all but i'm an ailment weapon player xD
But it's k now i have his armor and weapons.
5 kills after almost 30 attempts, hopefully this guide can help me improve that ratio 😂
30 and 0 kills, :c
I’ve spent all day on this and I’ve killed him once with randoms and was s u p e r close to completing it solo
5 i only able to to slay one time dude that awesome 👍
I soloed him with ice crit draw GS on attempt 4
Guys, you should really try charge blades
I'm gonna face the fact that I will never beat this thing because of how ass rng is for me
rng? just equip the safi set with a dragon weapon. also, make sure to dodge
The Great Fitzgerald is dragon worth using..? I’ve seen everyone saying you need ice.
@@thegreatfitzgerald2660 that's my problem I have no good jewels to equip to my good armor to fight safi to even get weapons 😂
@@thegreatfitzgerald2660 yeah no, just use safi and dodge is not great advice. I mean sure you should be dodging and safi is strong. but that's the equivalent of just saying "well don't die then."
@@arceus4932 Wrong. I've been consistently hitting 1700 damage with a dragon greatsword
Heres my setup.
Build the Xenojiva LBG, the one that has built in spare shot.
Youll have 2 ammo types, water and thunder. Use water when its in fire shift. Use thunder when its in ice shift. Use any agaisnt dragon shift. Youll have enough ammo for the entire fight since youre using 2 different shots.
When you defeat it, make Alatreons LBG wich has 5 goddamn elements. Now use fire vs its ice mode. Use ice vs its fire mode. Use dragon/water/thunder for its dragon mode. After u get this weapon use it to grind for the other weapons
Get full Safijivas armor it works wonders with LBGs. U get full blight resistance (lv3) easily. Evade window is godlike and easily upgraded to lv4. Get lv3 vitality , duh.
Get crit eye lv7. Get crit boost lv3.
A year later and the quest is still actually impossible
A long ago MHW was fun, everything changed when the goddamn avatar dragon came and wrecked everyone
Avatar's job is to make the world fun goddammit. Not the otherway around.
Are we just going to forget Extremoth and ancient leshen here. I swear world generally just has some really BS fight mechanics just stick there for the fun of it
Lol dont worry this is only an update not entirely a part of iceborne you can just eait for the next monhun games
Nah its the stupid MMO mechanics that ruined it
@Jesse Quarnstrom well its a coop game btw.
This fight is amazing, except for this one mechanic. This one mechanic is so fundamentally broken and garbage under any standard of great design, that it single handedly makes the fight garbage. I cannot believe any thinking adult would come up with this insult to monster hunter.
Yup
Dare to say throw away that DPS check and this fight will become 1000x more enjoyable.
this fight is pure cancer, especially for gunlances. im forced to do nothing but poke.
In their dev update video they literally just told us "good luck lol"
@@DamagdHart64 ''Players will love it'' Translation ''get fucked lol''.
@@8bitArtist This fight is awful for most weapons. Tell me, how are you capable of winning this fight with a greatsword? I think it's impossible.
Remember when you could play your way and not be forced to use something or you cant win
I'm a greatsword main and yeah its difficult but i welcome the challenge, world and iceborne were too easy, plus he's a black dragon he should be super powerful....
alatreon its bad design. Safi was a more fun
Just cuz y’all can’t play the way you want for this single fight doesn’t mean it’s bad. Don’t blame the design cuz you can’t adapt.
Get gud.
@@Mark-es5tx i agree with you bro
@@Mark-es5tx nop thats not git gud thats bad game disign. Yes u could learn an other waepon but for 1 singel monster thats not even worth the efort bc the armor is bs and the waepons are only realy good against alatreon him self.
I'm still hoping for Arch Tempered Safi'Jiiva after this being all like "You all thought you would never see me again, well too bad, i'm alive."
One of my friends said "if we beat alatreon I'll buy RE6 and play with you" so I'm really out here busting my ass and watching guides to beat it.
he doesn´t have any faith in you if he says he plays RE6 with you if you beat it :D I wish you good luck!
Me: Ok, I have an ice weapon. I'm hitting the dragon as many times as I can with the ice weapon. Other people around me are also hitting the dragon as many times as they can with the ice weapon. We break the horn. OK....so....when are we getting this notification that we can survive the judgement
Alatreon: Hahaha...you're in danger
I found out that the jerky item is the easiest item to use to survive the judgement, just eat it when your hp gets close to half and you should survive with no problems.
@@TreyDobe you still can't out heal Escaton Judgement

As much as I love Iceborne, I'm not a fan of basically any elder dragon fight at this point aside from Ruiner.
Ruiner, and namielle are decent. Don't hunt vall like i use to
I enjoy teo. But not Luna. And ruiner. And nami. Vaal and kush are terrible. Alatreon. Idk. I don’t have the proper gear for him as of now so I can’t reliably say. I have solo killed him once tho with beotodus charge blade.
@@RON_FBG ruiner is the best no bs blight just brute force
@@leonidus3147 actually at least from what I heard alatreon is not an elder dragon but a black dragon which is more powerful than elder dragon
@@thecyanpanda241 all black dragons are elder dragons but not all elder dragons are black dragons technically ruiner is a black dragon hes just as insane as other black dragons
I managed to coordinate a group from Discord and we were so close multiple times. Definitely a challenging fight and not in a good way.
I think we may need to make our grievances with this pattern of hunts known to Capcom. This spells bad precedent if they keep going forward with this type of artificial difficulty. I wouldn't even mind the DPS check move IF it had varying levels of power and it was practical to tank it or avoid it. However this shit they've started with Behemoth is not something I want in Monster Hunter.
@@Ergeniz I honestly agree bro, im not sure thier reasoning for adding DPS checks like Behemoth and Alatreon but hopefully they chill. I manages to beat it with the same discord group. It took everything we had and was mentally draining. Now to do it 2 more times to get the set smh
Yea, the check requirements are just way too damn high. They expect you to run a near perfect build, but what if some people just don't have the patience and time to grind the shit out of Kulve or Safi, since both shitlords are tied to RNG???
“Challenging fight and not in a good way” YES this here is what I was saying...1 hit KO sucks the fun from the entire game.
@@Ergeniz I think Capcom needs to stop listening to Speedrunners
Try:
I've gotten the gem 4 times and made 2 of it's weapons and I still haven't killed him
I haven’t gotten a gem and I really want to build his charge blade but haven’t unlocked it how did u do it😅?
Arkkez: you have to use elemental!
Greatsword players: we don't do that here!
Same with HBG, Max decos on element and all 5 Safi armor and still can only do 70ish per shot with Ice ammo, then cannot restock. Die to first nuke every time
Oh, I do elemental greatsword... but I have to farm up the Safi mats to do it.
@@hariman7727 I used all my materials on my poison and then what was left on my blast. To be honest I really hate fighting safi too, even when I first started I could never really find groups capable of taking it down. it doesn't help that the Xbox community isn't particularly very good at maintaining consistency, for instance about a month after safi the least you could see five or six rooms filled with full Hunter's but nobody actually running the event...
Even with a true critical element bow build this mad lad is one shotting. Might just go solo honestly...
If you guys are still having trouble with this the fight is much easier with duel blades in my opinion as u can evade with a good and keep attacking afterwards. I managed to kill it a few times. Stick to his back legs for the most part and attack his head when he does specific attacks that leaves it still for a few secs. With the correct build you can really enjoy this fight. Good luck 👍
How to get ths gear:
Step 1: equip your palico with plunderblade
Step 2: start quest
Step 3: let the cat do the work
End progress you'll be able to craft the armor eventually 😂
Does it actually work ?
Don’t you need to kill him first
mohd shahrizan pluderblade does work to get most of the materials for crafting but im pretty sure there is one material that can only be obtain by killing it like raging brachydios
You need to kill him first to get the armor /weapons to unlock....
kampfer91 just his armor, you can build his weapons without killing him
Really helpful video, dude. New intro gave me goosebumps too. Real nice stuff
This video was very useful: I managed to break both his horns and survive his Escaton Judgement, so it's only a matter of time before I finally down him now.
Alot of newer content has be forced multiplayer garbage, and i hate it
Isn't Alatreon the opposite of forced multiplayer? Arrekz and most of the community agrees that doing it solo is much easier.
I wish it had at least SOME mechanics reminiscent of the original hunt in Tri/3U. The Binders to keep it still and walls to pin its horns into (especially with how clutch claws cam be a great help there). I can understand the lack of binders, given the locale but not the walls at least.
@@Krimm664 you CAN solo it but its built much more for multiplayer; not as heavily as Extremoth but close. Especially when it comes to DPSing and keeping the weaknesses rotating
@@Krimm664 While yes, it is easier solo, being able to beat it solo requires the perfect build set up so that you can meet the DPS checks, and stay alive through the rest of the fight. It also requires more personal skill.
And getting the perfect build to fight it, pretty much requires farming either Kulve or Safi, both of which are multiplayer content(Kulve can be solo'd, if you have a set capable of soloing Alatreon). As well as a shit ton of RNG for those deco's.
@@Krimm664 it is still has MMO mechanic
I threw myself at this thing so many times with randoms...
Then once with a single friend.
So my tip for killing Alatreon is:
Get another decent player, or suck it up solo.
Well said. 👍
Bruv I've been trying solo for dayyssssss help me
I am like "forget element, I can't even hit the damn lizard".
Arekkz man love your videos they always help me when i need just even a little bit of info on a monster keep up the good work
Man you're a lifesaver, I couldn't understand how to survive his judgment first.
-> Watches this video
->get psyched, build max lvl ice glaive,lvl up element augment,ice kinsect
->tries solo and group
->loses 10 more rounds and rage quit.
same i kill i just 4 time
with MR999 player help
its pretty bullshit mechanic
I used to use insect glaive but switched to dual blades JUST for Alatreon. They do 50% element each hit. I've killed him more than 20 times, some solo, and the first time I beat him was about 3-4 weeks ago
So far I’ve killed him once with randoms, and literally 5 mins ago I was super close to doing it solo
I haven't beat Alatreon as of yet, and I have to ask: When you beat him, the 3U quest completion theme played. Was that edited or actually in the game?
That's in game! Super nice detail that they added
One more small tip. When you see the very obviously telegraphed lighting move, the one that zaps randomly and not the kirin walls of lightning, you can safely stand where Alatreon's front legs are and whack him to kingdom come.
the first time i fought him i was completely annihilated, but after learning his opening and movesets as well as using proper build he was extremely fun to fight
We are waiting for the inevitable “Where god fears to tread” quest
Maybe when arch-tempered Alatreon drops
@@raggedyexynos9487 Hopefully never.
This is the worst designed monster I've ever fought. Man, I was so hyped but this was such a letdown....
Was good in previous gen, but the elemental dps check in world is just... not fun...

It’s terrible. I am a raw damage player who never keeps elemental weapon. Jz, how would i want to waste another hours to farm a proper ele weapon? Even the lightning and water is garbage to achieve the check. That burns the fuck out of me.
@@ArthyenR everyone I know hates his fight in previous gen, you are like first person I've heard praise it, people love his weapons and armors but hate the fight
@@furner837 the Alatreon fight in previous games was difficult, but not impossible. Also, the fight was fun! This fight in MHW is pretty much impossible for almost all the players that are not "pro" gamers/streamers. Also, IT IS NOT FUN AT ALL!
I hate this fight. I've literally been doing it for 10 hours and I cannot do it. I can't even get past the first dps check 9/10 times. I've gotten past the second one ONCE. in TEN HOURS. I am not a great hunter, this is my first mh game and I know I'm not super good at it. but this fight is actually bullshit.
@Love Yourself git gud lol
I feel you been playing since the first hour he came out and hvnt gotten ne sleep and got 0 kills just depressing
Don't worry man, if you've gotten far enough to at least fight him, you should be proud of that already. This guy is END GAME levels hard, and in previous games, even then not everyone fought him.
Same here. Been at this for hours and I can't come close to beating him. Escaton Judgement always wipes my team everytime. Tried solo and I can't beat him there either. Just got off the game to take a break because i'm ready to break my controller.
@@Lunar_Eclipse27 i had to call in a super try hard friend of a friend who used a dual element hbg. I just kept the wings tender and my cat on healing. His cat on shieldspire and we managed To do it
I couldn't get a clear grasp on how the switching worked and thanks to your explanation I was able to solo Alatreon using Anjanath DB since I got the Ice Active Event one.
Thank you sooooo much for this video, It is the most actually help full tips I have seen so far. Much of the same has been going around but, not providing the necessary context to make it understandable.
Thanks to this I might actually try my hand on the fight again, now that I know what signifies a survivable Nova, the horn breaks are not to much of a problem for me.
Again thank you so much. AKA great video keep them up.
I literally can't be asked for this creature anymore.
I'm over this monster honestly the whole time he's been out I have tried more than enough hours and still 4 people hitting him with elements and he doesn't stagger. You say deal enough elemental damage wtf how much does he need cause he doesn't stagger
"YOU NEED TO BREAK HIS HORN!"
Well thank god he spent the entire time running or flying. Feels really good to fail to the dps check to a monster who you can't hit b/c heaven forbid you use a gs. Feh.
The post cart message if you haven't weakened the nova is the absolute worst, because it's immediately after carting, and the music has gone quiet, so it's impossible to miss.
So I just recently fought Alatreon for the first time. I broke both horns and wall bounced with a dropped rarest gem. I’m thinking oh damn I got this. He does the nova and I die. So I got my ass whooped. After a week of farming and strengthening my armor I finally beat him solo and now I can beat him without dying for the most part. Sometimes I dont do enough damage to lower the novas power. But I love this fight. Bout to move on to Fatalis.
Wooo! Great guide dude! Thanks!
