As a terrestrial predator, she employs a venomous tail and robust legs to overpower her prey. Rathian's hide features a subdued, muted green hue, in stark contrast to Rathalos's deep red.

Quick Combat Tips

Hunters will need to maneuver carefully to avoid the potent venom in the Rathian's tail spikes and her wide attack range. By severing the tail, you can limit her reach and gain the upper hand.
