Large, pink fanged beasts. Beware their potent breath, which changes based on their mushroom diet, and stench, which disables recovery items.In-game description
Congalala is back, and it still smells terrible. This pink fanged beast has been a series favourite since Monster Hunter 2, and Wilds gives it a whole forest of mushrooms to snack on.
Out in the wild
It lives in the Scarlet Forest, with Tempered ones in the Ruins of Wyveria, and it rarely travels alone: a group of smaller Conga usually tags along. The males style their head crest with plant oils and juices to show off. Congalala eats a lot, and it really loves mushrooms. Whatever it eats comes back out as breath: poison, blast, paralysis or fire, depending on the menu. The game’s own notes say it may manage any breath type thanks to the rare black mushrooms it digs up.
Where you meet it
Chapter 1, “Forest Findings”, as the second hunt after Lala Barina. Its last mainline outing before Wilds was Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate.
How the fight goes
The stench is the real threat. Its breath, its farts and the dung it throws can all leave you smelling so bad that your healing items stop working. A Deodorant or a dodge into water clears it. Hitting its rear end can set off a fart, so think before you wail on the back. The flip side is that its arm flurries and belly flops leave long openings, and it tires out after them.
Hunter’s tips
- Pack Deodorant. Without it, one bad hit can lock you out of your potions.
- Head, forelegs and tail can all be broken.
- Punish the long recovery after its flurry and belly slam.
