The Easy way to Beat Lunastra hints and tips for Monster Hunter Freedom 2

The Easy way to Beat Lunastra

Now I know it's hard to beat an Elder Dragon, and honestly,I believe they make Lao Shan look like a Kut ku. But there is a way to Beat one of the toughest Elders, Lunastra.

Alright then, I fully suggest a Dragon attribute weapon Like the Black Blade or the Black Hammer (Personally I used the Black Blade to beat her). Lunastra is one tough Dragon, and can deal major damage in a short amount of time, so bring armor that can handle dragon/fire attacks, and also have over 250-300 defense (trust me, it's worth the money and armor stones) so I suggest using Ceanataur armor (must be over the level of 6. By usint this complete armor set, you'll have Sharp Sword and sharping skill inc. Be sure to add some defense gems to the armor so your defense doesn't go down from the other skill).

Next, bring 1, 2, and 3 books of combo, 10 Blue Mushrooms, 10 Herbs, 10 potions, 5-10 mega potions, whetstones, Powercharm and Armorcharm, and 2 well-done steaks when your on the low on stamnia. Now, take what you can from the blue item box at the start of the mission (wheather it be the "Empress of Flames" in the volcanic belt or at the tower) and head straight for Luna.

Now, when fighting Luna, I found out that when your up close to her, she will hardly try to flee or jump back. Instead she'll either use her fire breath or swipe her claws at you. Try to Aim for the head as much as possible. But be warned, she will randomly try to use what I call the "ash of impending doom" which she emits from her body and explodes them when she snaps her mouth shut. This attack can't be guarded against, and can do some hefty damage.

The main areas where you can deal some decent dameage is the head, chest, and tail area. When using the G.S (Black Blade), cahrge up the attack, and if your lucky, get it to max charge and release the attack upon her head. This attack actually did break her crest when I pulled it off, but it also put her into rage mode (the mode where she is stronger, faster, and more lethal).

Now, most of the hunters reading this are probably not stupid and know how to fight, so this is just a hint for those who need a differnt angle on how to beat one of the Elder Dragons. (note that this hint is meant for the VILLAGE QUEST, and not the Gathering Hall, even though I'm sure it will still work)

Take care monster hunters, and happy hunting
