Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Monster Guide
Great Jaggi
Element: None
Ailment: None
Weakness: Fire
Injured Sign: Limping
Breakable Spots: Frill
Tips: Try to break his frill if you need a frill part. He always does two spins in a row, and they are easy to dodge. He will call smaller Jaggi reinforcements on occasion, but overall, Great Jaggi is the easiest large monster in the game to take down, so just focus him for the win.
Seltas
Element: None
Ailment: Defense Down, Fatigue
Weakness: Thunder, Fire
Injured Sign: Limping
Breakable Spots: Horn
Tips: Try to mount Seltas for a fast takedown. Dodge his spit and his charge and you’re on easy street.
Kecha Wacha
Element: Water
Ailment: Waterblight
Weakness: Fire, Thunder
Injured Sign: Limping
Breakable Spots: Ears, Claws, Tail
Tips: Kecha Wacha is small and wiry. Unless you really need to break his ears, try to attack him from the side. He likes to spit goop and swish his arms around. If he’s hanging upside down, try to flank him from behind to knock him down. When he folds his ears over his face, he’s enraged, and he’ll try to charge you – so make sure you get out of the way!
Tetsucabra
Element: None (In Frozen Seaway, he picks up Ice and has the Ice element)
Ailment: Fatigue, Iceblight, Severe Iceblight
Weakness: Water, Thunder
Injured Sign: Limping
Breakable Spots: Tusks, Front and Hind Legs, Back
Tips: Tetsucabra is big and slow, so it's easy to break his tusks. When he picks up a boulder, try to wail on his tail, because it becomes the weakest part of his body. It is generally safe to attack Tetsucabra from the side. He has one move where he rolls on his side, but there is plenty of time to dodge once you know the tell.
Velocidrome
Element: None
Ailment: Fireblight, Defense Down, Blastblight
Weakness: Ice
Injured Sign: Limping, Attempts to flee
Breakable Spots: Crest
Tips: Velocidrome fights similarly to Great Jaggi. He will call smaller Velocipreys to aid him duing battle. He will puff smoke when enraged, and also has a pin attack, so bring Dung Bombs.
