How to Beat Congalala in Monster Hunter Wilds

Congalala's size and agility demand constant movement. Avoid its front and rear to minimize exposure to its breath attacks. It utilizes powerful hand slams, tail whips, and ranged breath attacks.

Focus your attacks on the forelegs for easier break opportunities, exploiting openings created during its attacks. After consuming a mushroom, it will either release gas from its front or rear—use this moment to attack its head, tail, or rear safely.

If afflicted by its fumes, use deodorant or roll in water to cleanse yourself. Utilize Focus Mode and Focus Strikes during these openings to inflict significant damage, especially during breath attacks or ground slams.
