Monster Hunter WildsAjarakan Guide - Weaknesses, Location, Armor & More

Ajarakan is a new Fanged Beast in Monster Hunter Wilds. It uses its physical strength to maneuver around the battlefield and attack other monsters and hunters alike.

Most of Ajarakan’s moves are plainly physical, as it uses its powerful arms to attack, but it can also use a few Fire attacks.

This guide is written by @dxvis.

Ajarakan is initially found in the Oilwell Basin biome but can later be encountered in Runs of Wyveria.

Ajarakan’s attacks are mainly physical with the exception of a few Fireattacks. Improving Fire Resistance will help with the fight.

It has a variety of swinging and jumping moves and it can also hang from ceilings, so using Flash Pod can cause a knockdown.

On fire? Got Blastblight? Roll 3 times to get rid of the status!

Blastblight is the brown explosion status icon - also visible from the orange sparks on your character. It will spark an explosion after a while so get rid of it while you can! So alternatively from rolling, using a Nulberry for either status, or deodorant for Blastblight also works if you can use an item safely.

Don’t forget you need to be resistant to the heat in the area to avoid slowly losing HP! So use a Cool Drink, or grab a Chillmantle bug if you spot one!

Rock Throw

2 rocks thrown, just walk or dodge. If you walk/dodge forward for the second rock you might get an attack opening, but be wary of followup attacks.

Shoulder Charge

Very easy read, dodge sideways. Attack opening after.

Tail Slam

When behind him for too long - don’t stay in attack animation too long and be ready to dodge

Enrage

Ajarakan goes sicko mode & likes the color red

Fist Slam 

Walk backwards or dodge if needed. Two hits, if still close he can throw out a third slam.

Arm Slam

Ajarakan brings both arms in the air then slams the ground. Attack opening after, when he has to recover.

Large Lava Explosion (enraged)

Charging on all fours when enraged, Ajarakan + floor turn red. Dodge sideways or get behind him if close to monster.

Comet Strike (enraged)

Rolls on floor then jumps in air. In air pose = giveaway, freezes for 1 sec while white flash appears. Dodge backwards.

Lava Throw (enraged)

When enraged. Dodge backwards/fowards when in middle of attack, dodge sideways if on the edge of the attack. Sometimes walking is enough.

Fist Slam (enraged)

Either a single slower slam, or a faster double slam. Attack has a chance for the Ajarakan's claw to get ‘stuck’ and he has to recover - attack opening if this happens.

Charge Grab (enraged)

Ajarakan charges with both claws. Dodge sideways.

Lava Slam (enraged)

Ajarakan throws both arms in the air before slamming down and sending a wave of lava explosions forward. Dodge sideways - attack opening while monster recovers after the attack.

Uppercut (enraged)

Ajarakan slams fist in ground (posing similar to shoulder charge), then drags and uppercuts with fire.

Climb and Jump Attack

Ajarakan jumps up and mantles the ceiling (certain areas only), and climbs around before jumping on the ground in a fiery explosion.
