All Teostra Weaknesses

Teostra Elemental Weakness

Teostra's main weakness is water, so be sure to bring any weapons with this element along for the hunt if you have them. If you don't have any water weapons, take an ice tool along instead, as this element is only slightly less effective than water. Thunder and dragon are an excellent third option but offer minor damage compared to water and ice. Do not use fire weapons on Teostra as it nullifies all fire-based attacks.

Those with elemental weapons ought to focus their attacks on Teostra's Foreleg and Tail as these areas take the most damage. The Head also receives a sizable amount of damage when targeted.

Teostra Resistances and Ailments

If you want to inflict ailments to Teostra, try using Blast or Waterblight, as these are the only ailments with substantial payoff. Poison, Stun, Fireblight, Thunderblight, and Iceblight only deal minimal damage. Avoid using Paralysis, Sleep, and Exhaust on Teostra because of its immunity to these ailments.

Teostra Drop Rates - Carves, Capturing & Breaking

Depending on your quest, you can get different rewards to forge armor and weapons, but each has a drop rate percentage, ultimately RNG. It is pure luck what you receive.

  • There are multiple ways of gaining items
    • You can carving three times once the monster is dead.
    • You can capture the monster instead of killing it.
      • Or carving the broken appendage of said monster.
    • From looting the drops from the monster
    • After successfully compleing your quest

Most monsters have breakable parts, and Teostra is no different. Focus attacks on Teostra's Head, Wings, and Tail to break chunks off the beast. If you break these pieces during the hunt, you will earn extra rewards after completing the quest.
