Sorry, the weakness chart numbers are correct but the formula below apparently is missing a -5 modifier for Fatalis. So you can trust the chart but ignore the calculation (it works like that for basic monsters though).

Tip: Even though it may seem like it, Proof of a Hero does NOT make you invincible. When it kicks in, stay sharp hunter, you're almost there!

[m.s.e.advanced]

Tip: Just because it's flame has weakened doesn't mean it's a weak attack

[haephizto]

Smoke bombs work really well because all monsters are weak to the element of surprise. Okay, I'll see myself out.

For Hammer I learned that the stairs leading up to the ballista with the binder count as a slope so bring affinity slider and airborne! if you power charge and spam jump attacks you should deal around 600 damage to the head per smack and it really helps break it and mount him. Happy Hunting everyone!

[gloriousgoo]

I finally just beat him earlier today. Evade extender actually helped quite a bit with it too, really makes it easier to dodge some of his larger explosive attacks.

[JMoore-voii]

Biggest tip: The Gattling Ballista does
D A M A G E
Seriously, if you tenderize the head beforehand you can get really easy headbreaks later in the hunt

[gaijinhunter]

Another tip but was too weapon specific for me to include but sleep fatalis in front of the Dragonator (just fatcaster and grab it and put on temporal mantle) for double damage on one of the dragonators. Do rotary on the fallen beast and it dies right there usually lol.

[gaijinhunter]

While I didn't really talk about it, armor skill that can help is Partbreaker LV3, Divine Blessing LV5, Heath Boost, Clutch Claw Boost, Fire Resistance (if your def isn't that high, if it is, i dont run it myself), Free Meal LV3, Fortify are great choices that might help you out. Also using a palico with the shield skill i heard is quite useful.

[bishamon]

as a rule of thumb most of his flamethrower attack is safe if you want to clutch the head, while the fireball attacks are not. and also when he does the nova its wise to run a bit to the side instead of straight under the fatalis because its cone shaped, you have less distance traveled to safety if you run slightly to the left/right.

[pyoheliobros]

3:25 Heavy Artillery only has two levels max
Also another useful tip is, that you can pretty much interrupt every attack of Fatalis by throwing two dragon pods at him

thanks for all the MH content over the years! :D

This tutorial is amazing! I love how you talked about the psychological approach too. I feel like I’m better at the game because of this video, and suddenly challenges that seemed impossible like solo alatreon or fatalis seem entirely doable. I’ve never beat fatalis before but I’m sure that I’ve got this now. Thanks a lot

[ShopperKungVtuber]

i have some a bit of tip too
so if you feel like you can't outrun the flame try Assassin's Creed Mantle it make you run faster than normal so you never miss the run part ^ ^ have a great hunt

[nathaneager]

Huh. I didn't realise Ice was that much better than the other "1 star" elements shown on the in game guide for Fatalis.

[jahipalmer]

Thanks for this video! This is the first Fatalis fight video I have seen on the internet where the youtuber didn't tell me about how "easy" the first section of Fatalis is. Like, this really made me feel like if I keep trying then I will be able to do it instead of me feeling like I could never accomplish it because it is isn't easy for me...

[Secret_Takodachi]

Incredible!
This is so in-depth & well organized, if I hadn't already beaten Fatalis before I saw this vid I'm certain I would have afterwards!

[diacorlife]

14:43 I died, so perfect in the middle of a calm guide xD

[tomasvillamizar]

Another tip is that when you try to flinch shot him into a wall, you don’t have to spin him around to ensure the enrage because if he hits the wall it’s a guaranteed enrage

[ryanxx]

Wow, the way you broke everything down really encourages me to solo it. I’ll be watching this video a few times until i beat it.
