- Can you believe that my last run with a Magnamalo dates back 2 months? Unacceptable!
Probably the single hardest challenge I imposed on myself in this game. Yes, this was even harder than EX Risen Shagaru Magala.
This is "just" a Magnamalo, so of course this could be much harder on something else, but I wanted to do this on him.
The lack of HUD is something I did before but on much easier targets. Here, the lack of HUD forced me to keep in mind how much HP I have left, as well as when and if I can trade with Intrepid Heart. Main plan was also to survive the Anomaly Bursts with Intrepid Heart and try to get one more Anomaly Core on Magnamalo destroyed if there was still some available.
I kept the Wirebug HUD because I'm not that insane.
Raw Courage Hammer is about as strong as Strength Hammer. My last solo runs on Magnamalo were with Strength so I wanted to mix things up.
I'm also starting to like Courage a little more than Strength because I'm growing tired of spamming level 3 charges ; with its moveset and synergy with Water Strike, Courage Hammer feels like a more complete weapon with more options.
Overall I played very well in this run. I landed all my hits without triggering bad staggers, and I got to damage Magnamalo enough to topple it off of its hellfire gas mode, which is about 11,000 bonus damage at Special Investigation level. He grabbed me twice but it didn't matter much.
I guess this is an okay opportunity to explain how Magnamalo's hellfire gas functions which is something I don't see talked about or properly explained in the MH Wiki.
Magnamalo always starts a fight with having some parts of its body lit in hellfire, its mouth, its arms, or its tail. After some time has passed during combat, Magnamalo will usually jump back and start an animation where it expels gas all around itself. This makes Magnamalo's back become lit with hellfire, and also makes it the biggest weakpoint on its body ; this is because Magnamalo's "reservoir" of hellfire is inside its back.
Hitting Magnamalo on its hellfire-lit face, arms or tail will eventually stagger Magnamalo and remove hellfire from these parts, but it poorly contributes to properly damaging him and triggering the topple that deals massive damage to Magnamalo. In order to trigger this, one must instead hit his back, which will glow when it is hit.
After more time has passed during combat, Magnamalo will repeat the animation where it expels gas around itself. This turns the hellfire on Magnamalo a bright pink, and during this state, hitting any hellfire-lit part on its body now contributes to making Magnamalo explode and damage itself.
Failing to deal enough damage to these parts during this last state in a certain amount of time makes Magnamalo do a long backflip jump and proceed to do its signature charge-and-dive attack, which resets its hellfire gas state back to default (no lit back).
The animation Magnamalo triggers to go into the next hellfire state is predictable, and it is better to avoid cancelling it, either by just a damage stagger or an exhaust stagger, as it will strip you away from being able to deal damage to it in order to force the self-explosion and get the bonus damage for a long time until Magnamalo attempts to change states again.
Longass description but fuck it. I'm passionate about Magnamalo for being one of the best fights in the entire series and I hope this helps people who have trouble with him.

The music editing the effects, the filter, the description with a guide, the run, EVERYTHING.
You remind me why magnamalo is my favourite flagship.
I never read a proper explanation of Magnamalo's hellfire. Thanks for the tips! This was a great run, I can see why it was super challenging
0:39 Of all the things I expected when I started watching this video, an Old-school Garuga headsnipe was not one of them. Actually that's the first time I see someone pulling this off lmao Amazing stuff
Came here after watching your hammer guide from a while back. Impressive gameplay, your knowledge of the fight and weapon really is shown off here. Needless to say, I'm a fan dude, gj
You remain one of the best high skill monhun runners I check in on. I love your passion, and how it shines in your edits and choices, and also the way you always explain your reasoning and thoughts on the monster. I learned more this last year?? watching your runs and reading your descriptions, and saw more fun playstyles to experiment with, and gained the confidence to experiment myself, thanks to you.
This run itself is so impressive, and just a joy to watch. Love the way you know this matchup so well--your love of him definitely warmed me up on his fight, even if he's never going to topple my favourite fight.
Bravo!
Thank you very much, and I'm very happy to know I've been of help!
You’re back on Peakbreak, all is right in the world.
Learned all I needed about Mango’s Hellfire from the base Rise demo but that was a good write up nonetheless, really good stuff.
And speaking of good stuff, what a video! Knew that I was in for a treat from that dunk around 45 secs in. Solid play all around, some fantastic positioning porn and well managed staggers.
I know you’re just chilling these days and I don’t blame you but I really love Sunbreak so I’m always happy to see you sneak out another vid.
Edit: Btw, no HUD on Spec Investigations is some next level scary stuff lol. And you were timing Intrepid Heart procs too, what a legend lmao.
Thanks a lot my man, I'll have a few more runs coming on Sunbreak soon ;)
Well frickin' played sir!
i agree with your opinion about strength hammer being unbalanced and only using lvl 3 charges; hammers whole moveset was so well balanced in world/iceborne, i dont understand how or why they changed it so much in rise/sunbreak
I am an SnS main with about 400 hours played on Rise alone, but man...this is next level skill. Reapect.
Magna looking good with white fire
Nice, might try out raw courage by just swapping out the switch skill on your strength set.
Courage Hammer makes the weapon feel more complete but my only problem is how EXPENSIVE is to make the elemental sets. You need way too many skills and even after barely even reaching them you have to give up a lot of comfort skills... I just ended up giving up on them, even after qurio augmenting every meta elemental hammer and getting a decent set using the pieces you showed in the last hammer showcase.
My question is if i could still use Courage with your set forn the Scorned Magns hammer.
Building elemental sets is definitely a lengthy trial but the grind gives me something to do ingame which is nice.
Yes, you can really just switch Strength for Courage with my Strength set. Just remind yourself to replace Focus 3 with whatever you want since the skill is not useful for Courage
what layered armor are you using?
