Use Attack Up Item Before the Battle Begins
Demondrug has a long-lasting effect but a slightly longer cooldown, so it's best applied in advance at Base Camp. Use Might Seeds and Demon Powder just before descending from Seikret to maximize their duration and avoid unnecessary waste.
Bring a Capture Set if You Can
Tempered monsters have high HP and often take longer to finish off even after they start limping. On top of that, control tools like traps tend to be less effective. To save time, capture the monster immediately when the weakened icon appears, ideally before it moves to another area.
Best Meal is Meat + Egg + Jeweled Mullet Roe
Ration | Additional Ingredients | Finishing Touches |
---|---|---|
![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
For meals, choose Meat + Fluffy Egg (Airy Egg) for a potential Attack Up boost. For finishing touches, Jeweled Mullet Roe is recommended, as it increases attack when in a 'wet state'.
Tempered Uth Duna Farm Strategy & Tips
Strategy Tips
Attempt to Strip the Veil
After initiating combat with a Sneak Attack, quickly focus on removing the veil. The veil causes waves to appear during certain actions, which must be dealt with, so preventing them is key. Aim to attack in a way that engages the membrane, which will cause blue damage indicators to appear.
Water Generated by the Arms Can Be Ignored
The water flow generated when the veil is deployed can be troublesome, as it can stop your movement or knock you over. However, the water flow caused by one arm can be completely ignored if you have
Strike the Front Legs with Piercing Shots
▲Successfully piercing both front legs yields excellent damage efficiency.
Tempered Uth Duna has good ammo damage penetration on the front legs, allowing for efficient damage output. Focus on attacking along lines that pass through the front legs and maximize penetration. Tempered Wounds are often located on the legs, creating additional opportunities for attacks.
Use Flash Pods to Protect Yourself
The best timing for throwing a Flash Pod is to prevent the water flow during the veil phase or to avoid being approached. To maximize firepower, it's important to maintain Critical Distance, so using it to halt the monster's movement during close-range attacks is advisable.
Use Flash Pods When the Monster Closes in or Dives
It's a good approach to throw Flash Pods at all of Uth Duna's close-range attacks. However, it's especially effective to use Flash Pods during rapid approaches followed by arm sweeps or tackles, and during dive presses after jumping.
Craft Ammo and Flash Pods Before Running Out
Always craft Thunder Ammo and Flash Pods before using them up completely. If you craft them after they run out, you'll have to switch to different ammo or reset the Flash Pods, which adds unnecessary steps.
Destroy Tempered Wounds at the Right Timing
Tempered Wounds can cause a knockdown when broken outside of Paralysis Effect or Trap. This creates a valuable opening for follow-up attacks, so try to avoid breaking multiple wounds at once.
Practice to Quickly Execute Guard
How to Do |
---|
+ (*Press Both as the Attack Lands) |
Auto-guard is disabled immediately after firing or reloading, so be prepared to execute a manual guard on reaction. Mastering manual guard enables Power Clashes and significantly reduces the risk of being incapacitated.
Capture Before the Monster Relocates
▲If the mini-map ring turns white, the monster is about to relocate.
If the monster relocates after it's weakened, it can waste valuable time. So when your Palico says 'It's Weak!', it's best to capture it immediately. Use a Flash Pod to stop its movement and safely set a trap for capturing.
How to Unlock and Spawn Conditions
Set to 'Inclemency' and 'Rest' Repeatedly

When searching for Tempered Uth Duna, it's recommended to set the environment to 'Inclemency' and repeat 'Rest'. While it can appear in all weather conditions, the likelihood of its appearance is highest during Inclemency, making it the most efficient method for spawning.
