Monster Hunter Wilds Zoh Shia weaknesses and strategy

by

As a devoted fan, I’ve got to share some exciting news about the Monster Hunter: World update! Previously, the Zorah Magdaros encounter was a one-time deal for players. But now, the final boss in MH Wilds is a replayable event – something we can hunt again and again! However, keep in mind that success isn’t guaranteed each time.

As a devoted fan, I must confess that the battle against Zoh Shia in Monster Hunter Wilds has become one of the deadliest hunts after the Free Title Update 1. This formidable foe is no walk in the park, with its crystalline shell making it nearly invulnerable and capable of self-healing when cracked open – a testament to its resilience. However, through persistence and strategic attacks, you can eventually wear down its defenses by repeatedly breaking its shell.

In this guide, we’ll delve into Zoh Shia’s weaknesses in Monster Hunter Wilds. But beware, no matter how you approach it, this encounter promises to be a challenging one.

Zoh Shia weaknesses and strategy in MH Wilds

Zoh Shia has the following weaknesses and vulnerabilities in Monster Hunter Wilds:

  • Weaknesses
    • Dragon
  • Immunities / Resistances
    • Exhaust
    • Flash Pod
    • Shock Trap
    • Pitfall Trap
    • Sonic Bomb
  • Effective Items
    • None
  • Monster attack types and special attacks
    • Fireblight
    • Thunderblight

The unique asset of a Zoh Shia lies in its self-healing crystal armor. This armor can be fractured piece by piece if certain areas like the head, legs, or wings are consistently attacked. However, each time the armor regenerates, it becomes less robust, making it more vulnerable to further breaks. The instances when the armor is breached offer an opportunity for substantial harm to the underlying skin.

As the game progresses, certain areas will be irrevocably hidden, unveiling charred-like surfaces that the player can attack for intense damage. However, this comes at a cost as Zoh Shia becomes increasingly hostile and employs extra elemental attacks.

As a gamer, let me share a tactic that could be game-changing when facing Zoh Shia: Always watch out for those Wylkcrystals popping up all over the battlefield during combat. This monster has a knack for detonating them with powerful elemental attacks, either Fire or Thunder. But

In essence, your fight with Zoh Shia will be a prolonged, wear-and-tear type of engagement. Adopt a prudent, defensive strategy and ensure you have a robust resistance against fire and thunder damage. It’s wise to heal whenever your health drops below 50%, and consistently maintain a safe distance from its head.
