Monster Hunter Rise offers a wide array of enemies to defeat for players who aim to protect Kamura Village from invasion. While monsters start out simple, bosses become more complex as hunters move up the food chain. Eventually, players will face the Royal Ludroth, a crest-faced enemy that uses the sponge-like material around its face to shield itself from damage. Make sure you have the right tools and knowledge to overcome this obstacle. Here are the weaknesses, resistances, and drop rates of Royal Ludroth in Monster Hunter Rise.
All Royal Ludroth Weaknesses
Royal Ludroth Elemental Weakness
Royal Ludroth's main weakness is fire, so be sure to bring a weapon with the element if you can. If you don't have a gun, grab some thunder gear instead, as it also deals substantial damage to the Royal Ludroth. Only use ice weapons as a last resort, as these tools don't deal much damage to your prey. Avoid using water and dragon weapons, as the Royal Ludroth is resistant to their impact.
Those using fire elemental weapons should focus their attacks on the head, mane, abdomen, and back for the most damage. Thunder weapon users should focus on the mane, while ice weapons have more impact when hitting the mane, front leg, and abdomen.

Resistances and evils of Royal Ludroth
The Royal Ludroth isn't incredibly weak to ailments. Only a few types leave a lasting impact on this boss. Be sure to use the Explosion or Fire Blight ailments when facing this boss. The faster your attacks, the more likely you are to stack disease on your opponent. The Royal Ludroth isn't immune to any condition, though the rest won't do much damage.
Royal Ludroth 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.
