Break Uragaan's Chin To Make It Weak Spot
The Uragaan's chin becomes a weak spot when it becomes broken or chipped. Though it's hard to target, this opens it up for heavier damage so aim to break this monster part as soon as possible.
Roll Away When Uragaan Sprays Fumes
It's best to keep your distance when the Uragaan stays still and looks like it's going to spray clouds from its body. These clouds will either inflict sleep on you or hurt you with fire damage.
Blue Is Sleep, Red Is Fire
When the clouds that the Uragaan emits are blue then this means it'll inflict you with sleep. Go near a ledge or have a teammate hit you to wake you up. When the clouds are red, it'll inflict you with fire damage, dealing damage-over-time if you don't extinguish the flames.
Keep Distance From Bomb Balls
When fighting the Uragaan, it will toss ignited balls of magma onto the ground from its body. Keep your distance as these "bomb balls" will explode after a few seconds and cause fire damage-over-time.

Throws Bomb Balls That Explode Over Time
When the Uragaan does his body rolls and body tackles, it will throw bomb balls onto the ground from its body. These bomb balls will explode over time and will explode immediately after getting hit by Uragaan's chin smash.
Rolls Body Forward Then Back Towards You
The Uragaan will roll its body forward and then will roll back towards you. The direction is sometimes unpredictable so its best to keep your distance and then dodge when you know it's going to hit you.
Chin Smash Causes Ground Tremors That Can Stagger
The Uragaan does several versions of chin smashes and all these can cause ground tremors. Be sure to roll away when it does this move to avoid getting staggered.
Sprays Sleep Or Fire Damage From Its Body
The Uragaan sprays clouds from its body, dealing either sleep status or fire damage. When it stays still, be sure to move away before it sprays the clouds.
