- You may find the Azure Rathalos in the ancient forest and bear in mind that you can also expect Rathian flying beside it, which is alarming as both of them are very powerful and dangerous monsters so you will have a hard time facing both. Anyways, you can get them to fight each other if you are lucky enough.

- The Azure Rathalos is similar to the normal Rathalos but differs in just a few things. As the Rathalos usually gets into melee attacks, the Azure Rathalos relies on the distant fireballs and also charge attacks. Use the flash pods and also Dung pods to keep other flying creatures away.
- The head, tail and wings of the Azure Rathalos are weaker and it takes a lot of damage to these areas but the head takes the most damage. The head, body, tail and wings are all breakable. Also, the Azure Rathalos is weak against the Dragon elemental attacks.

- The monster is resistant to Fire and is also resilient to the blast and poison ailments. It is not particularly weak against any other ailments. So make sure to keep these things in mind while you are fighting the Azure Rathalos. You won’t face many difficulties as you know much about the normal Rathalos and that applies to this one as well.
