Monster Hunter Rise is a series known for pitting its players against various hostile wild animals. These monsters come in all shapes and sizes. Some monsters are tiny and some are massive, like the Mizutsune. This giant monster is at home in water and can use this element to decimate its opponents. Make sure you don't end up like his dinner by learning his weaknesses, resistances, and drop rates before you come face to face with this Leviathan.
All Mizutsune Weaknesses
Mizutsune Elemental Weakness
Mizutsune's main weaknesses are thunder and dragon weapons. Be sure to use tools with these items to deal the most damage. Fire and Ice are useful if you don't have thunder or dragon options, but do much less damage in comparison. Do not use water weapons on Mizutsune.
Be sure to focus your attacks on the front paw, left claw, and right claw when using thunder, dragon, and ice weapons. Hitting Mizutsune here will deal the most damage. Aim for the neck or dorsal fin if you have a gun.

Mizutsune Resistances and Ailments
There aren't too many ailments that are very effective on Mizutsune, so be sure to capitalize on his dislike of Blast and Thunderblight. These types of attacks are sure to rock the beast with a flow of consistent attacks. Mizutsune is not immune to any type of disease, although other diseases don't do much.
Mizutsune Drop Rate – Carves, Capture & Breaking
Depending on your quest, you can get different rewards for forging armor and weapons, but each has a drop rate percentage, ultimately RNG. It's pure luck what you get.
- There are several ways to get items
- You can carve three times once the monster is dead.
- You can capture the monster instead of killing it.
- Or sculpt said monster's broken appendage.
- Looting the drops from the monster
- After successfully completing your quest
Most monsters have breakable parts, and Mizutsune is no different. The head, fin, nails, and tail can all break off on this monster. If you break these pieces while hunting, you will earn additional rewards after completing the quest.
