I honestly have no clue why they made the requirement for this quest MR24. They lost they minds. No one should be even attempting Alatreon until they’ve augmented their armors and weapons which takes a crazy amount of time grinding. People haven’t even beat Ruiner Nergigante and wondering why Alatreon is carting them nonstop. The requirement should be MR70 or 100 seeing as that he’s pretty much on the same level as tempered Elder Dragons in terms of strength.
I was thinking why you didn't upload anything about Alatreon. Then I realised you are still probably trying to beat it. No upload until victory. "Pain in the ass" is an understatement. I have a problem to even draw a weapon...
Well, its worth it if you could solo, not only you are gettin better, but you are also learning n calculating the damage n etc... Basically there are alot of player outside there trying to solo this thing but they can't defeat alatreon, also don't give up ! I failed the quest around 7 or 8 times, trying to manage what armor and skills do i need to counter and calculate my element dps... But i manage completely to beat him and so on, farming his armor and right now i need to farm all of his weapon lol
If you are an LS user i think you could try this sets : -. Weapon = Kjarr Weapon with 1 slot deco - . Armor = 1 Set Safi -. Augment = Health Regen + Elem/Stat Effect Up -. Charm = Coal +3 -. Deco's n Skill = T. Dragonvein Awaken, Crit Element, Atk +7, Weak Exploit +3, Crit Boost +3, Vit +3, Agitator +5 or Elem Atk +6, Coal +3... Hope this help you in your hunt, Happy Hunting !
@@Ren014 I tried running coalescence but honestly I rather just have complete blight resistance. Only other change I'd make is to swap out weakness exploit for Crit eye 7 Alatreon is extremely difficult to tenderize even with mantles because many of his attacks hit multiple times. Other that our builds are identical.
I fought him solo with lbg, basically you have the control and pacing of the fight and it makes it easier. Btw, getting his lbg built makes it way easier
I've come to a stage where I just eat for safeguard and after he's killed me three times with his nova I've done enough damage to finish him off before he tries a fourth nova
Female sets are worse in general. I like my slooty armors as much as the next guy, but so many are just bad compared to the male sets. Case in point: Guild Armor
Most of the female sets are lacking and could do better with a full face helmet. I always feel disappointed... but not enough to make a male character cause of the hours I’ve already put in 😔
I found the kulve taroth to be really good when going up against alatreon despite the elemental weaknesses. Level 3 speed eating and free meal allowed me to power heal throughout the fight. Lvl 3 free meal is nuts! I heal and most of the time it doesn't consume the item. So 10 potions easily becomes 30-40.
Also, it turns out, you can weaken that nuke 3 times, to the point that you only need minimal healing to survive it, this takes a TON of elemental damage tondo, but 3 Alatreon light bowguns was enough ;D
His switch between elements gets me the most but everything else is pretty tame if your a good dodger and get good damage cause his tail and horns are good targets and destroying the horns forces him to not use one of the elements my first one was ice but fire would be better
@@jenniferabsher1160 i'm the same. Dodging his attacks became pretty easy after my first few attempts but i always fail the quest, because his changing elements attack always wipes my entire team. Usually because some people try to heal through but just fail and some try attacking him to negate the attack, but don't deal enough damage in time. It's infuriating
Basically, to survive the judgement, you have to overload him once during a cycle with elemental dmg. Only DMG counts that he is not resistant to. Means in Ice everything aside Ice, Fire is strong however, and reverse in his Fire Form. In Dragon he is receptive of all dmg types, but 2 stars with dragon. I used an Ice Weapon for my solo kill (im not braging, its acutally a better idea to make this solo of your gear is ok, like safijia set, its also my only kill so far) I used my temporal only in fire face to really hit him down, and tried to kill the boss without dying 4 times at the judments i couldnt break. To Heal yourself, use Astrea Jerky. Its cheap and it heals your entire red bar.
Ok here's some tidbits you guys can use. May be a bit of a read. 1. In one of the event quests (and the special assignment) Alatreon starts in fire mode, switches to dragon (he has access to all elemental attacks in this mode btw), and then ice. If you break his horn while he's in dragon mode he will switch back to fire instead of ice so if you have ice weapons this is the strat you need. In the other even quest he starts in ice and works his way to Fire so same deal. 2. Breaking the horn does NOT affect the nova. You can break a horn and still not do enough elemental damage. How you know you've done enough elemental damage is when he does a stumble like Velkhana when you break off enough of her ice and you get a congratulation message. You can do this multiple times to further weaken the nova. If you haven't seen any type of message talking about controlling Alatreon's power and he's about to nova just quit because you're dead. 3. The elemental threshold and HP scales to solo duo and multiplayer so you can solo him. 4. Ice is great for his fire mode and vice versa and both are ok for his dragon mode. Dragon is meh all around but is better for his dragon mode so choose your element element. If you know what mode he's gonna start in you can always use the opposing element (fire to ice and whatnot) and just aim to break his horn when in dragon mode to keep him in that specific mode so you can do more damage. 4. You CAN craft his layered weapons but you need to craft and upgrade his weapon first. So yeah.
@@addie1198 I would argue the second weakness of the element he starts in would be (if you can break the horn) otherwise I'd say dragon is only worth it if you own a Kjarr "Decay" of the weapon you want to use or the Alatreon weapon itself
@@SephyClone7 the safest thing I can recommend is 2 ice/fire (depending on his starting mode) and 2 dragon. Dragon is 1 star for fire and ice active and 2 star for dragon active. While it's useful for all modes it's not that good. Hence why I say aim to break his horn while in dragon mode. I always try to aim for his head as much as possible and slamming him into the wall helps a ton with this.
People keep saying that, but honestly, I went to fight him with his armor set, and it was bad. I kept using the 3 Safi and 2 Teostra set and I already got him around 10 times (with friends)
Dan Alex I’ve beaten him around 20 times (with randoms) and this armor absolutely makes a huge difference if you go in with Dragon element. No idea what people are talking about because this armor is top tier. With jewels I have every offensive skill maxed out and then some.
@@DarkMaestro88 You make more elemental damage with Ice/Fire (depending in what element it starts) than dragon, I already tested it with friends. Still, I'm trying different things with that set and weapons. As of now, Safi and Kjarr are still more effective. We have been slaying in a time between 12-13 mins (15 at worse). As for when we use dragon element with its set, it took us between 17 to 18 mins.
You got lucky and got people that knew what they where doing, not everyone is bad only that when someone doesn't know what is the best way to help things get bad quickly
For those having a tough time with Alatreon, soloing him seems to be the best bet. I've been pretty successful with dual blades and LS. Lance and CB not so much.
@@gitgudmak In theory element choice doesn't matter as long as you choose one. However you can lock which element he stays stuck in by breaking his horns. The elemental ratings for fire and ice go from 0 to 3, while everything else varies at 1 or 2.
@@gitgudmak Lance is too slow anyway You gonna have to make some faster elemental weapons I'm also Lance user si I'm sad U could just try with Lance anyway but ist super hard
@@Ostrid1 First solo kill today with lance. Full safi, Kjarr ice 100% crit, (no offensive guard, partbreaker 2). It is not bad, you can easily break the horns and hit the legs while flying.
I see a lot of people doing it with randoms, with a fight like this where everyone needs to be prepared, don't use SOS, go into a room or create one, that way you can inspect who ever is joining your quest. At least while its new. Maybe after a few weeks or so, SOS might be worth it, but the chance for someone not being prepare is to risky.
Make your palico use the plunderang, use part breaker 3, break his head and tail, carve the tail, either return from quest or triple cart, you keep the rewards. You can gain gems this way too. The only difficult part to get is the wings, but you could focus them when he falls over.
@@sylverlune I think everyone would love that, but that would never happen as capcom would proabably find that OP. I was hoping there was a way you could change the weapons element at the smithy, maybe using certain materials to do so.
@@sylverlune they had exactly that in frontier. There were combined elements like "Crimson Demon" "Light" "Darkness" and "Frozen Seraphim" which were multiple elements at once. Your weapon would only deal the most effective element present in that combination. For example, your weapon had the "Darkness" Element. If you fought a monster weak to dragon you'd deal dragon damage. If the monster was weak to ice it would be ice damage.
@@kingofflames738 that's super cool! They should just do the same for MHW alatreon. Cause right now the incentive to fight him is really low. Especially for GS mains like me who don't use elemental weapons.
So, got the armor done and I say, I like using it for elemental heavy weapons. Essentially, I use it currently in a way that it maxes out the used element with the elemental defenses and a fully upgraded charm I switch out depending on the situation and I think it is very solid. The high attack boost probably is in it just to make us avoid using the usual crit boost meta we see in pretty much 95 % percent of all sets here on youtube. When it comes to fighting it, my group actually tried something you'd say is incredibly stupid. We were only three people and could not get a fourth one who actually did not use a status weapon. We essentially maxed out the dragon damage as much as possible and instead of trying to get him to stumble before he switches to dragon, we stumbled him during his dragon form where he has a two star weakness. Like I said, we experimented with the though to miserably fail, but it actually worked out. We got consecutive wins and were able to make the armor completely. Also, just as a small trivia for those thinking the armor is completely unusable: Monster Hunter Tri, his first appearance. For the fact he was incredibly tough, he only had 3 skills: Evade distance up, blight res and awakening. Aside from that, negative elemental resistance in all of them and the best thing I could slot in back in the day was elemental damage up with a really good talisman, as it had barely any slots to work with, with the old system of course. Now imagine someone putting sixty hours into sleepbombing that guy consecutively for those skypiercers and see those skills with barely any slots to work with XD I stuck with Lagiacrus for element or just used the ceadeus armor.
@@ekosubandie2094 oh ok. I started with 3u and by the time I had that there wasnt really a point to go back to trie since everything plus more was in 3u
Remember the tri days when you actually had to win to get parts? Actually break the horns and wings to make something. The wings were tough to. You needed purple to not bounce on them
Cleared it 10 times already but failed like more than 20 times before that. Really don't just fight Alatreon, memorize its movesets and the safe spots of its attacks while keeping up DPS. In our last hunts, we cleared it without deaths. It's so frustrating at first but when you get used to it, it's really fun. Definitely will slay it again tomorrow.
For everyone struggling to finish this fight: Do it solo, get the velkhana Ice variant for your weapon, use Safi armor because of the damage boost and evade window skills. The rest is just learning the dodge timing and continuously attacking. Full Evade window is key for this since you can pretty much dodge through all of its attacks. It basically turns into a bloodborne boss at this point. That is how I did it.
As bad as I still want my Narga scythe, im super happy with the Alatreon long sword scythe. Power and style, glad I've been practicing my LS skills. Thx Light Break Edge for the motivation.
as for Alatreon Divinity Element conversion takes the sum of positive elemental resistances and gives 5% of that value as BASE element (2% for bowgun ele ammo). The specification just means it will increase the cap and scale with things that multiply against base element (EleAttUp from HH, the % portion of the ele att skills etc) and in regards to the % increase from the 3 piece, the 20% is before this all is taken into account, with all the ele res values rounded prior to usage in the conversion. All that being said for the sake of example if you were just using 5 piece of the alatreon armor (15 0 0 15 10 resistances) with all 5 ele res skills at lvl 3 (so 35 20 20 35 30 resistances) increased by the 3p set (to 42 24 24 42 36) is 168 total res which comes to a grand total of just 8.4 base true element (decimals should be maintained for sake of cap calculation and such even though the UI shows a rounded value) adding the ele res L food increasing all ele res values by 15 will increase it up to 50 35 35 50 45 all *1.2 to 60 42 42 60 54 at a very max of 258 but even that is only 12.9 base true element, all the same kind of calculations can be used for bowguns, but they use 2% instead of 5% so the example cases would be 3.36 and 5.16 respectively (though this scenario implies running 5 lvl 3 ele res skills) Just to put a summary at the end even though it's included in the start, the set bonus gives 5% (Normal weapons) or 2% (bowgun ele ammo) of your total positive ele res AFTER increasing all ele res by 20% (if you have the 3 pc)
you could do 2 piece alatreon 2 piece namielle and 1 piece silver rathalos + safi weapon for an OP element build and alwasys eat for element resistance up
Already finished my alfa and beta sets and the upgraded lbg \o/ Alatreon, in my opinion, is the coolest fight of all mhw hands down xD. After you get used to it, you can beat him with a good frequence xD. My suggestion is going with the alatreon lbg Thanks for the video. Waiting for your analyses on possible builds ^.^ o/
This fight doesn’t seem worth it. Sure the weapons are good. Kinda. But the armor is meh and it’s not really useful outside of the fight itself. Plus the nova is waaay too overturned.
Can now solo in 7-10 minutes. I know this may hurt to hear to most of you but dual blades are your best bet. My strategy has consisted of using the beo hatchets II and getting their ice element to 1000+ then basically just wail on him. You can "contain his power" within a minute or two every time. Horn is not an issue either. Just gotta wallbang him where you can and learn where the openings are.
I did some maths back when they showed the set bonus on the Dev. Diary. It looked to me that you get .4 elemental increase per point in resistance. It'll be cool to actually see if that's right or if it works differently!
Not yet clear the quest But after 4-5 ties with my friend Good thing that I am a SnS user High element The shield can block almost all Alatreon attack (including thunderbolt and eruption) without using Guard Up SnS shield is suck, I am well aware, but at least better than a direct hit And SnS perfect rush, wow, 200+ damage per hit
It's a pretty bad SnS. The Kjarr ones from Kulve Taroth are way better for elemental SnS, especially with Frostcraft builds. You can easily get +400 damage with it.
any tips for reaching its horns with the SnS? that was the main thing I was struggling with. It's got very short windows for grappling and doesn't stay downed for long either!
During a few big moves his head stays near the ground for about 3-4 seconds. And when he flies and shoots the ground with fire/ice, you can grapple his head to both avoid the attack and hit his head.
Very easily. He does big pauses after a lot of his attacks. During dragon phase, when he's up in the air and dips his head down, you can flinch-shot him into the ground, and then do a perfect rush combo on his face to break the horn. It's very easy to do. Hope that helps!
kept trying to fight him with the velkhana hammer, and i kept losing. then i tried using the SOS flare and then i got carried by 3 other longsword players
My word i have not been able to even get one win on alatreon all day and we always get one shot by the judgement attack and i even had teams to help me and we cant even get one win its a good thing alatreon is in the game for 363 days
Hey guys here's a good tip i learn from he MHW Community to fight this Alatreon. Make the Alatreon Light-Bow-Gun!!!! It has Rapid Fire for All Elements: Ice, Fire, Water,Thunder, and Dragon! It's the best way to to do enough element damage to nerf the Super-Nova, If you do enough damage, the Handler will say a dialogue to inform you the Checkpoint! This fight really requires everyone to have team of different elements. When it's shooting fire, use Ice. When it's Purple, you can use Dragon Element, and then Ice use Fire. Do enough element to also topple and break its horns to stop from switching element to element. I hope this helps take care and yeah this boss is hard.
The female one is sooooo lazy, they literally grab parts from other armors, it’s basically a recolored rathian suit, and it’s poorly designed, half of your damn arms clip through the torso
totally agree with you. My complaint is that his armor total defense is very low. I thought is should be higher than kulve taroth's, like 900 or 910. Since he is a black dragon lol🤷♂️
@@marksullivan00 well then it'd be too op, you already get massive elemental damage reduction plus increased elemental damage from it (I got over a thousand dragon element on his hammer). It's gotta have some weakpoint, like how the safi set is a double edged sword where each attack decreases health (granted since I'm a hammer user I out heal the damage).
I have a Alatreon Gs build I use for Alatreon fight : Alatreon gs (health regen 1 & element up 2) 3 safi and 2 alatreon pieces (gloves & belt). I am able to get 1500 physical damage, 1200 dragon damage and 100 crit. It actually makes element gs build usable now.
He’s difficult still haven’t beaten him yet but I did get his equivalent of the mantle from the horn break reward all I need to make a weapon is the scales
one complaint I only have is that the total defense number on the armor is very low lol like I thought it would be much higher than kulve taroth's like 900 or 910 defense lol. Since he is a black dragon.💁♂️
All the water is like an even 1ft deep, so im sure they just toggle whether they walk on the ground (swimmers), walk on the water (fliers, keldeo, etc), or neither (walking on the ground probably made lotad too short for his pad to show. But avalug worked perfectly) .
Contrary to popular opinion, I'm not a huge fan of Alatreon's designs either (with the exception of that great sword), but I love the stats. I made his longsword and turned it into a Stygian Zingore LS, I plan on turning his glaive into Ebony Odo's and his charge blade into Deviljho's.
Good news everyone you can craft the armor and weapons with out defeating him. I ran a sticky HBG with partbreaker and had my palaco with plunderblade and focused on the wings and the horns, at first it seamed like the only thing you couldn't get was the Azure Dragonsphire but then I got 1 as a reward after breaking both horns. The tail will be the hardest thing to get for me at least but only 2 armor pieces need it so I can still get the set bonus
NeoShenlong00X yea ik I started with MH3U but I was let down when I saw that world had butchered some of the weapon designs, especially for nargacuga and Brachy
I just beat Alatreon about 2 days ago and I already had the dual blades due to spamming him with a Palico that had a equipped with the Plunderblade, got two of the skymeralds but never the wings. Now that i have switched over to SnS I need to slap it a few more times
For some who likes to wear full set, this armor is trash. I went through 5 stages of grief with this set after acquiring it. I looked around for a while for someone to justify the set, but nope.
why? this set is actually quite good. Only 3 pieces needed to get both bonus. You can really mix and match with other sets well. Like, kjarr weapons + 2 set brachy. Or, 3 set armor bonus with safi weapons.
@@InsomniaJiU-0517 The thing is, If you really wanna go for elemental builds Safi 5 set with Kjarr weapons or any elem weapon is straight up a better option than alatreon in any way. Maybe only if the set had more crit eye than attack boost.
The beta set with alpha legs is insane if you run a dragon build. I managed to get 48 skill points into it. (Comparison: Kulve Taroth set got 36 skill points). You can max out critical eye, attack boost, defence boost and dragon attack and still have space for weakness exploit and critical boost without using your charm plus you get bonus skills like health boost. If you use the alatreon LS you get 1000 Dragon Element
I think you can farm alll the materials for Alatreon without defeating him to make his armor and weapons, much like you could with behemeoth. You could probably make set dedicated to breaking a part, equip Plunderblade, and return from the quest with the materials you gathered once you break the part you need.
Ok, how do you get the weapons without killing him? I've plundered him, yeeted him into walls, gotten several materials, but still no weapons at the smithy??
@@matthiasknaak4219 Actually, turns out I had to break the right thing. Ended up with a set that can break the horns in one hit, as soon as I finished that attempt, all the weapons and armor appeared. Now I'm stuck on getting a wing break before I lose, xD Baby steps!
I feel that the weapons are such a lost opportunity. In my opinion they would have been really awesome if they all had no elemental damage at all, and once you have successfully killed Alatreon you get an item (similar to the fire spell thing you got from the witcher crossover) that changes the element to fire, dragon, and ice in a set order. Or, something around the lines of a new craftable "ammos" for the weapon that adds an element of choice to a hit. Say loading 1 fire, 1 ice, and 1 dragon which deals each type of element to 3 hits total. Then you're back to elementless damage until you "reload" the weapon again. Wall of text, no potato.
Arekkz, prepare to have your mind blown. I crafted his SnS. And on one of my many failed attempts (i've still yet to defeat him), i obtained, from breaking the first horn... an *Azure Dragonsphire.* And you'll DEFINITELY catch me wearing his beta armor when i have acquired all the materials. I'll call it... the Deathwyrm Knight. (What do you think of the name?)
I made an alatreon element focused set with 3 piece alatreon armor and kulve Kjar dual blades, and with my ice setup with them I managed to beat odogaron in 7 mins and with my thunder setup, beat legiana in 8 mins so considering I'm not a pro player I think the set most definitely has elemental damage potential potentially rivaling safi's as a more comfy set.
Got the full set fun fight. Good reminder do lots of damage before he does his ult the more damage the less ult damage he does. have blight resistance or not have dragon resistance to have full crit damage hope this helps
What build did you use on your first kill? I recognize the Velkhana SnS, but that's it. I've been using a full Safi armor set with Safi SnS for ice. I had to stop hunting because the fight was just getting too draining for me. Hopefully I'll have better luck tomorrow

Ok here's some tidbits you guys can use. May be a bit of a read.
1. In one of the event quests (and the special assignment) Alatreon starts in fire mode, switches to dragon (he has access to all elemental attacks in this mode btw), and then ice.

You can do this multiple times to further weaken the nova. If you haven't seen any type of message talking about controlling Alatreon's power and he's about to nova just quit because you're dead.
3. The elemental threshold and HP scales to solo duo and multiplayer so you can solo him.
4. Ice is great for his fire mode and vice versa and both are ok for his dragon mode. Dragon is meh all around but is better for his dragon mode so choose your element element. If you know what mode he's gonna start in you can always use the opposing element (fire to ice and whatnot) and just aim to break his horn when in dragon mode to keep him in that specific mode so you can do more damage.
4. You CAN craft his layered weapons but you need to craft and upgrade his weapon first.
So yeah.
Dragon element is by far best element to rely on in random hunts.
@@addie1198 I would argue the second weakness of the element he starts in would be (if you can break the horn) otherwise I'd say dragon is only worth it if you own a Kjarr "Decay" of the weapon you want to use or the Alatreon weapon itself
@@SephyClone7 the safest thing I can recommend is 2 ice/fire (depending on his starting mode) and 2 dragon.
Dragon is 1 star for fire and ice active and 2 star for dragon active. While it's useful for all modes it's not that good. Hence why I say aim to break his horn while in dragon mode. I always try to aim for his head as much as possible and slamming him into the wall helps a ton with this.
Thank god the alatreon greatsword isn’t meta or I’d never be satisfied
Nobody:
Capcom: The fight will be much easier with the armor set, if you can get it, LMAO
People keep saying that, but honestly, I went to fight him with his armor set, and it was bad. I kept using the 3 Safi and 2 Teostra set and I already got him around 10 times (with friends)
@@danalex6109 and I'm still a Safi/kulve/alatreon virgin
Dan Alex I’ve beaten him around 20 times (with randoms) and this armor absolutely makes a huge difference if you go in with Dragon element. No idea what people are talking about because this armor is top tier. With jewels I have every offensive skill maxed out and then some.
@@DarkMaestro88 You make more elemental damage with Ice/Fire (depending in what element it starts) than dragon, I already tested it with friends. Still, I'm trying different things with that set and weapons. As of now, Safi and Kjarr are still more effective. We have been slaying in a time between 12-13 mins (15 at worse).
As for when we use dragon element with its set, it took us between 17 to 18 mins.
Useless nobody
You are lucky to have people to play with random people are a pain
No one is bringing life powder or dust of life and they keep coming with raw weapons 😑
Yeah and worse they keep missing the rocks when someone flint shot him
@@corruptedshadowj the struggle is real
My first succesfull hunt on Alatreon was with a group of randoms.
You got lucky and got people that knew what they where doing, not everyone is bad only that when someone doesn't know what is the best way to help things get bad quickly
For those having a tough time with Alatreon, soloing him seems to be the best bet. I've been pretty successful with dual blades and LS. Lance and CB not so much.
What element did you use? :o
@@gitgudmak In theory element choice doesn't matter as long as you choose one. However you can lock which element he stays stuck in by breaking his horns. The elemental ratings for fire and ice go from 0 to 3, while everything else varies at 1 or 2.
@@shawnbounleuttay8051 FeelsBadMan I don't have any ice or fire lances. I only have a dragon lance. LUL
@@gitgudmak Lance is too slow anyway
You gonna have to make some faster elemental weapons
I'm also Lance user si I'm sad
U could just try with Lance anyway but ist super hard
@@Ostrid1 First solo kill today with lance. Full safi, Kjarr ice 100% crit, (no offensive guard, partbreaker 2). It is not bad, you can easily break the horns and hit the legs while flying.
I don't care, I'm still calling him Alatreeon.
Huzzah, a man of quality!
Hammer Bro here. This is the way.
Alat-tree-on is still my way of saying it too lol.
Sem
Same here
I see a lot of people doing it with randoms, with a fight like this where everyone needs to be prepared, don't use SOS, go into a room or create one, that way you can inspect who ever is joining your quest. At least while its new. Maybe after a few weeks or so, SOS might be worth it, but the chance for someone not being prepare is to risky.
you could also just join an sos and check out what weapons they have beforehand
I did it on SOS 6 times
I just killed It today on sos so... Xd
Using sos on the event after beating usually brings in experienced players
Make your palico use the plunderang, use part breaker 3, break his head and tail, carve the tail, either return from quest or triple cart, you keep the rewards. You can gain gems this way too. The only difficult part to get is the wings, but you could focus them when he falls over.
Just need 1 more for the armor.
I got the first Azure Dragonsphire from breaking the first horn. The hunt failed.
This might end up being like my Behemoth run. Never beat him, but I still have his armor due to plunder blade and carving
Just so you are aware, eating all veggies increases each elemental resistance by 15, that increases elemental damage by 60.
I’ll 100% go after the armor and see if I could make a nice comfy/tank build.....once I actually manage to bring down the spiky sunnovabitch
Idk why I kept thinking he’s weapons would literally change Element as you attacked😂
Shawn Reacts that would be Insanely Cool
I wish his weapon changes to the element weakness of the monster you are hitting.
@@sylverlune I think everyone would love that, but that would never happen as capcom would proabably find that OP. I was hoping there was a way you could change the weapons element at the smithy, maybe using certain materials to do so.
@@sylverlune they had exactly that in frontier. There were combined elements like "Crimson Demon" "Light" "Darkness" and "Frozen Seraphim" which were multiple elements at once. Your weapon would only deal the most effective element present in that combination.
For example, your weapon had the "Darkness" Element. If you fought a monster weak to dragon you'd deal dragon damage. If the monster was weak to ice it would be ice damage.
@@kingofflames738 that's super cool! They should just do the same for MHW alatreon. Cause right now the incentive to fight him is really low. Especially for GS mains like me who don't use elemental weapons.
"The Alatreon armor look cool!" Cry in female hunter
Ikr? I don't get the female armours at all
The female armor trys to show as much skin as possible, and I really hate it.
@@emanessa8795 its japanese developers what did you expect
Well that’s what you get for choosing the girl
Alatreon armor make good bunny suit
So, got the armor done and I say, I like using it for elemental heavy weapons. Essentially, I use it currently in a way that it maxes out the used element with the elemental defenses and a fully upgraded charm I switch out depending on the situation and I think it is very solid. The high attack boost probably is in it just to make us avoid using the usual crit boost meta we see in pretty much 95 % percent of all sets here on youtube.
When it comes to fighting it, my group actually tried something you'd say is incredibly stupid. We were only three people and could not get a fourth one who actually did not use a status weapon. We essentially maxed out the dragon damage as much as possible and instead of trying to get him to stumble before he switches to dragon, we stumbled him during his dragon form where he has a two star weakness.
Like I said, we experimented with the though to miserably fail, but it actually worked out. We got consecutive wins and were able to make the armor completely.
Also, just as a small trivia for those thinking the armor is completely unusable: Monster Hunter Tri, his first appearance. For the fact he was incredibly tough, he only had 3 skills: Evade distance up, blight res and awakening. Aside from that, negative elemental resistance in all of them and the best thing I could slot in back in the day was elemental damage up with a really good talisman, as it had barely any slots to work with, with the old system of course.
Now imagine someone putting sixty hours into sleepbombing that guy consecutively for those skypiercers and see those skills with barely any slots to work with XD I stuck with Lagiacrus for element or just used the ceadeus armor.
Lol no old ala was one of those "I'm gonna cheese it with kelbi stingshot" monster for me
@@daviddinges9168 that's 3U tactics, back on Tri's days it's either sleep bombing or Cluster on him
@@ekosubandie2094 oh ok. I started with 3u and by the time I had that there wasnt really a point to go back to trie since everything plus more was in 3u
Ah, so the fight is worth it! Too bad some of us will never know what it's like to win against the Alaetron.
Me.... 😭
This fight makes me want suicide
@@canadiancanucklehead8310 don't do it
I played the whole day and only killed him once. I havent feeled this fustrated and happy for ages
@@dogwithsunglasses4051 lol yep, that's monster hunter in a shell nut
What platform you on?
Can confirm: I got the scythe longsword just from the shines and then I vamoosed.
Remember the tri days when you actually had to win to get parts? Actually break the horns and wings to make something. The wings were tough to. You needed purple to not bounce on them
Cleared it 10 times already but failed like more than 20 times before that. Really don't just fight Alatreon, memorize its movesets and the safe spots of its attacks while keeping up DPS. In our last hunts, we cleared it without deaths. It's so frustrating at first but when you get used to it, it's really fun. Definitely will slay it again tomorrow.
For everyone struggling to finish this fight:
Do it solo, get the velkhana Ice variant for your weapon, use Safi armor because of the damage boost and evade window skills. The rest is just learning the dodge timing and continuously attacking. Full Evade window is key for this since you can pretty much dodge through all of its attacks. It basically turns into a bloodborne boss at this point. That is how I did it.
The plunder blade is also a viable option if you're just trying to craft weapons
New intro is my favorite yet!! Awesome stuff as always
Finally crafted full set and 2 weapons today
Same. Took some time and effort. But it finally paid of.
As bad as I still want my Narga scythe, im super happy with the Alatreon long sword scythe. Power and style, glad I've been practicing my LS skills. Thx Light Break Edge for the motivation.
No surprise for Horn: elemental song.
The LS make me want to be main LS!!!
as for Alatreon Divinity Element conversion takes the sum of positive elemental resistances and gives 5% of that value as BASE element (2% for bowgun ele ammo). The specification just means it will increase the cap and scale with things that multiply against base element (EleAttUp from HH, the % portion of the ele att skills etc) and in regards to the % increase from the 3 piece, the 20% is before this all is taken into account, with all the ele res values rounded prior to usage in the conversion.
All that being said for the sake of example if you were just using 5 piece of the alatreon armor (15 0 0 15 10 resistances) with all 5 ele res skills at lvl 3 (so 35 20 20 35 30 resistances) increased by the 3p set (to 42 24 24 42 36) is 168 total res which comes to a grand total of just 8.4 base true element (decimals should be maintained for sake of cap calculation and such even though the UI shows a rounded value) adding the ele res L food increasing all ele res values by 15 will increase it up to 50 35 35 50 45 all *1.2 to 60 42 42 60 54 at a very max of 258 but even that is only 12.9 base true element, all the same kind of calculations can be used for bowguns, but they use 2% instead of 5% so the example cases would be 3.36 and 5.16 respectively (though this scenario implies running 5 lvl 3 ele res skills)
Just to put a summary at the end even though it's included in the start, the set bonus gives 5% (Normal weapons) or 2% (bowgun ele ammo) of your total positive ele res AFTER increasing all ele res by 20% (if you have the 3 pc)
you could do 2 piece alatreon 2 piece namielle and 1 piece silver rathalos + safi weapon for an OP element build and alwasys eat for element resistance up
This fight completely destroys any gunlance. Great design capcom!
Not taking a shot at your current intro but the one before I think it was more cooler
Already finished my alfa and beta sets and the upgraded lbg \o/
Alatreon, in my opinion, is the coolest fight of all mhw hands down xD.
After you get used to it, you can beat him with a good frequence xD. My suggestion is going with the alatreon lbg
Thanks for the video. Waiting for your analyses on possible builds ^.^
o/
Just maxed out the duals blades! With full safi and 2 ele agus im sitting at 900 DRAGON.
Alatreon gets shredded
Get the armor asap! You can hit 1000!
@@bboysilentcc You do realize that Safi armor gives the same elemental bonus as Ala with a much lower opportunity cost
I‘ve tried the alatreon Quest for 5h and haven‘t killed him 1 time 😅
5 hours? That's it. Those are rookie numbers. Try 11 (and still counting) and we'll talk.
I know the struggle bruh
Been at since 9 last night, haven’t kill him yet. That nova is serious bullshit.
7 hours no wins
12 hours.....
This fight doesn’t seem worth it. Sure the weapons are good. Kinda. But the armor is meh and it’s not really useful outside of the fight itself. Plus the nova is waaay too overturned.
I wouldnt save the nova is overtuned, more like the damage threshhold to get the weaker nova is.
Tim Kallam it’s overtuned.
Crybabies
the nova is ok if you do enough elemental dmg to the boss
Guillermo Feijoo yes how dare people raise criticisms capcom can do no wrong, they are all crybabies
Can now solo in 7-10 minutes. I know this may hurt to hear to most of you but dual blades are your best bet. My strategy has consisted of using the beo hatchets II and getting their ice element to 1000+ then basically just wail on him. You can "contain his power" within a minute or two every time. Horn is not an issue either. Just gotta wallbang him where you can and learn where the openings are.
I feel like people confuse what’s possible to beat and what’s fun to beat. You need both for this monster to be a success
I did some maths back when they showed the set bonus on the Dev. Diary. It looked to me that you get .4 elemental increase per point in resistance. It'll be cool to actually see if that's right or if it works differently!
Not yet clear the quest
But after 4-5 ties with my friend
Good thing that I am a SnS user
High element
The shield can block almost all Alatreon attack (including thunderbolt and eruption) without using Guard Up
SnS shield is suck, I am well aware, but at least better than a direct hit
And SnS perfect rush, wow, 200+ damage per hit
It's a pretty bad SnS. The Kjarr ones from Kulve Taroth are way better for elemental SnS, especially with Frostcraft builds. You can easily get +400 damage with it.
any tips for reaching its horns with the SnS? that was the main thing I was struggling with. It's got very short windows for grappling and doesn't stay downed for long either!
During a few big moves his head stays near the ground for about 3-4 seconds. And when he flies and shoots the ground with fire/ice, you can grapple his head to both avoid the attack and hit his head.
Launch him in the large rocks and moin3t him.
Very easily. He does big pauses after a lot of his attacks. During dragon phase, when he's up in the air and dips his head down, you can flinch-shot him into the ground, and then do a perfect rush combo on his face to break the horn. It's very easy to do. Hope that helps!
kept trying to fight him with the velkhana hammer, and i kept losing. then i tried using the SOS flare and then i got carried by 3 other longsword players
My word i have not been able to even get one win on alatreon all day and we always get one shot by the judgement attack and i even had teams to help me and we cant even get one win its a good thing alatreon is in the game for 363 days
Hey guys here's a good tip i learn from he MHW Community to fight this Alatreon. Make the Alatreon Light-Bow-Gun!!!!
It has Rapid Fire for All Elements: Ice, Fire, Water,Thunder, and Dragon!
It's the best way to to do enough element damage to nerf the Super-Nova, If you do enough damage, the Handler will say a dialogue to inform you the Checkpoint!
This fight really requires everyone to have team of different elements. When it's shooting fire, use Ice. When it's Purple, you can use Dragon Element, and then Ice use Fire.
Do enough element to also topple and break its horns to stop from switching element to element.
I hope this helps take care and yeah this boss is hard.
Problem is people need to beat him first to make the lbg
@@daviddinges9168 No, as addressed in video you can craft all weapons just by flinching him and failing hunts
When you already have fatalis armor so you're just here like " yeah, that's cool too."
Alatreon is out here speedrunning us...
The female one is sooooo lazy, they literally grab parts from other armors, it’s basically a recolored rathian suit, and it’s poorly designed, half of your damn arms clip through the torso
lol wut
Lol just use the layered armor.
totally agree with you. My complaint is that his armor total defense is very low. I thought is should be higher than kulve taroth's, like 900 or 910. Since he is a black dragon lol🤷♂️
@@marksullivan00 well then it'd be too op, you already get massive elemental damage reduction plus increased elemental damage from it (I got over a thousand dragon element on his hammer). It's gotta have some weakpoint, like how the safi set is a double edged sword where each attack decreases health (granted since I'm a hammer user I out heal the damage).
@@Darkslayer274 true pretty much lol
The Charge Blade do be lookin kind sexy doe 😳😳😳
I have a Alatreon Gs build I use for Alatreon fight : Alatreon gs (health regen 1 & element up 2) 3 safi and 2 alatreon pieces (gloves & belt). I am able to get 1500 physical damage, 1200 dragon damage and 100 crit. It actually makes element gs build usable now.
Oh wow, do you think that GS could be greatly used on a Frostcraft set? Since element is at its best for the GS there
This stuff looks cool. Maybe I’ll beat Alatreon one day. 😭
Guess im one of few ppls that enjoy that fight, because that shows to me how a black dragon needed to be, something hard thats not easy to overcome.
You seem to mistake bad and boring design (elemental dps check) for difficulty (challenging mechanics)
it's fun for me also been waiting for a challenge like this for a while.
He’s difficult still haven’t beaten him yet but I did get his equivalent of the mantle from the horn break reward all I need to make a weapon is the scales
done soloing him with healer cat, safe guard food and 1 faints left. i’m satisfied with the fight
It will be really interesting to build an element build with this HH and Set bonus with the element melodies in effect.
THEY HAVE SCYTHES NOW???? IM FINALLY COMING BACK
one complaint I only have is that the total defense number on the armor is very low lol like I thought it would be much higher than kulve taroth's like 900 or 910 defense lol. Since he is a black dragon.💁♂️
I am looking forward to making a mixset to this armor even if its just 2 or 3 pieces but I have yet to beat it.
His armor seems very great for IG and probably SA
My SA builds have been doin work, the MR kulve chest peice has been a godsend speed eating lvl 3 is clutch in this fight
All the water is like an even 1ft deep, so im sure they just toggle whether they walk on the ground (swimmers), walk on the water (fliers, keldeo, etc), or neither (walking on the ground probably made lotad too short for his pad to show. But avalug worked perfectly) .
Literally wrote this on an entirely different video and channel. No idea how it ended up here, lol.
I'm quite disappointed with the charge blade, but I'm a sucker for purple sharpness. Well, at least I should be able to change how it looks.
Appearance-wise or stat-wise? I think it looks pretty awesome personally. Its numbers seem decent too - and that purple is gorgeous for sure..
You can layer his weapon but you need to craft and upgrade the weapon first.
@@Highonwater3X Clearly appearance wise, seeing how I said I am a sucker for purple sharpness and how I can change its looks.
Contrary to popular opinion, I'm not a huge fan of Alatreon's designs either (with the exception of that great sword), but I love the stats. I made his longsword and turned it into a Stygian Zingore LS, I plan on turning his glaive into Ebony Odo's and his charge blade into Deviljho's.
Good news everyone you can craft the armor and weapons with out defeating him. I ran a sticky HBG with partbreaker and had my palaco with plunderblade and focused on the wings and the horns, at first it seamed like the only thing you couldn't get was the Azure Dragonsphire but then I got 1 as a reward after breaking both horns. The tail will be the hardest thing to get for me at least but only 2 armor pieces need it so I can still get the set bonus
the HH is good when fighting him , with the buffs from it and lvl 6 dragon it goes up to 1.5k dragon ( without any aug for ele )
It’s refreshing to see all the weapons have unique designs, instead of slapping scraps of Scales and hide on iron/bone weapons
Those r the same design as past generations
NeoShenlong00X yea ik I started with MH3U but I was let down when I saw that world had butchered some of the weapon designs, especially for nargacuga and Brachy
@@joewaklatifa at least we have raging brachy weapons as an apology lol
Awesome combo. Drop arms and waist (atk boost) and slot in a good 2 pc combo of choice.
I just beat Alatreon about 2 days ago and I already had the dual blades due to spamming him with a Palico that had a equipped with the Plunderblade, got two of the skymeralds but never the wings. Now that i have switched over to SnS I need to slap it a few more times
OHHHHH. THe hunting horn comes with Elemental boost and elemental effectiveness!!! Plus the set buffs... This could make some very spicy combinations
I was struggling pretty hard with the fight last night but I will probably beat it tonight
Reminds me of the Safi'Jiiva farm, use Safi gear to beat Safi!
For some who likes to wear full set, this armor is trash. I went through 5 stages of grief with this set after acquiring it. I looked around for a while for someone to justify the set, but nope.
Yeah really wanna slap the devs for making the skills ._.
I mean some parts of it are kinda good with their skills (chest piece is amazing for comfy builds)
why? this set is actually quite good. Only 3 pieces needed to get both bonus. You can really mix and match with other sets well. Like, kjarr weapons + 2 set brachy. Or, 3 set armor bonus with safi weapons.
@@InsomniaJiU-0517 The thing is, If you really wanna go for elemental builds Safi 5 set with Kjarr weapons or any elem weapon is straight up a better option than alatreon in any way. Maybe only if the set had more crit eye than attack boost.
The beta set with alpha legs is insane if you run a dragon build. I managed to get 48 skill points into it. (Comparison: Kulve Taroth set got 36 skill points). You can max out critical eye, attack boost, defence boost and dragon attack and still have space for weakness exploit and critical boost without using your charm plus you get bonus skills like health boost. If you use the alatreon LS you get 1000 Dragon Element
You can't tell me the long sword doesn't look like something off of Soul Eater
I think you can farm alll the materials for Alatreon without defeating him to make his armor and weapons, much like you could with behemeoth. You could probably make set dedicated to breaking a part, equip Plunderblade, and return from the quest with the materials you gathered once you break the part you need.
Here’s hoping I can solo with Hammer. Not really much of a gunner but it appears doable with an extra life via felyne insurance.
really disapointed by the armor skill-wise, no way this replaces Safi-Taroth sets for elemental :/
You need to check your mic man, listen closely and you will hear like a metallic ring while you speak. Great video regardless
0:46 Within the first day got an upgraded Alatreon LS and the full set 7 hours after he dropped.
We’re all very happy for you
@@SeppukuAddict Thanks bud. Happy to run around helping people with the hunt since I think he's cool.
The Beta set is black palette of Dante in Sin devil form.

Just got this DLC from Steam Summer sale. The new Bone Armor rocks!
Appreciate the content
Ok, how do you get the weapons without killing him? I've plundered him, yeeted him into walls, gotten several materials, but still no weapons at the smithy??
Because you need to beat him in the Assignment quest .
Then everything is unlocked unfortunately.
@@matthiasknaak4219 Actually, turns out I had to break the right thing. Ended up with a set that can break the horns in one hit, as soon as I finished that attempt, all the weapons and armor appeared. Now I'm stuck on getting a wing break before I lose, xD Baby steps!
im just saying that i need that alatreon longsword for that frostfang barioth set xD
i been waiting for ever for this video
The 2nd amour looking like Dante's devil trigger from devil may cry 4
My only hope of beating this is in October when everyone has done it and is willing to help
I feel that the weapons are such a lost opportunity. In my opinion they would have been really awesome if they all had no elemental damage at all, and once you have successfully killed Alatreon you get an item (similar to the fire spell thing you got from the witcher crossover) that changes the element to fire, dragon, and ice in a set order. Or, something around the lines of a new craftable "ammos" for the weapon that adds an element of choice to a hit. Say loading 1 fire, 1 ice, and 1 dragon which deals each type of element to 3 hits total. Then you're back to elementless damage until you "reload" the weapon again.
Wall of text, no potato.
That actually sounds wicked cool
Arekkz, prepare to have your mind blown.
I crafted his SnS.
And on one of my many failed attempts (i've still yet to defeat him), i obtained, from breaking the first horn... an *Azure Dragonsphire.*
And you'll DEFINITELY catch me wearing his beta armor when i have acquired all the materials.
I'll call it... the Deathwyrm Knight.
(What do you think of the name?)
I finally killed. It took a while to find a good group. No deaths
do not care for the set I just want mats so i can create the layer in the future.
now im ready at alatreon 😎
I finished the full armor set yesterday
I made an alatreon element focused set with 3 piece alatreon armor and kulve Kjar dual blades, and with my ice setup with them I managed to beat odogaron in 7 mins and with my thunder setup, beat legiana in 8 mins so considering I'm not a pro player I think the set most definitely has elemental damage potential potentially rivaling safi's as a more comfy set.
Got the full set fun fight. Good reminder do lots of damage before he does his ult the more damage the less ult damage he does. have blight resistance or not have dragon resistance to have full crit damage hope this helps
The upgraded weapon needs a wing of some sort. Didn't say that in the video.
So you DO need to kill him to get the weapons.
Break the wing and die, no need to kill him.
If you topple Alatreon you can break the wings on his back. Ya know "a wing of some sort" yeah his wing.
Struggling I have no idea how to survive
Man. Where to begin. We've been at it for more than 12hrs. Not with randoms but with friends. That 3rd escaton judgment is a big F. No pain no glory.
How are you guys breaking tails and wings? Or are those just drops when he dies? I've had no luck with those parts so fad
So far
What build did you use on your first kill? I recognize the Velkhana SnS, but that's it. I've been using a full Safi armor set with Safi SnS for ice. I had to stop hunting because the fight was just getting too draining for me. Hopefully I'll have better luck tomorrow
