How to Beat Tigrex in Monster Hunter World Iceborne

Tigrex is another one of those highly aggressive monsters that can rage for minutes at a time, hitting everything in its path. Any ledges or obstacles won’t stop its charge so you really need to steer clear from its raging attacks.

But the good thing about this high-energy monster is that it will eventually tire itself out and slow down, leaving itself open to counterattacks and such.

Try to avoid attacking or using your clutch claw until the monster takes a second to slow down and become tired.

Weaknesses to Take Advantage Of

Tigrex is especially weak to thunder and dragon elements and is resistant to fire. It’s also susceptible to poison, sleep, paralysis, blast, and stun.

So, make sure to bring some items with you like shock traps and blast barrels to help take care of Tigrex.

To sum things up:

  1. Wait for the Tigrex to slow down until you attack it.

  2. Bring along a weapon with thunder or dragon elements.

  3. Try to slow it down with traps or poison.

And that’s all you need to know about how to beat Tigrex in Monster Hunter World Iceborne. For more on the new expansion, make sure to read our fully scored review of Iceborne right here.
