How to beat Flaming Espinas in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak
All Flaming Espinas weaknesses
When battling against a Flaming Espinas, it’s a bit more aggressive than the standard version. You can expect to see firey blasts much faster, forcing you to take a step back from it and give it plenty of room before you can find a safe angle to begin your assault.
We recommend using a Slashing or Blunt weapon when attempting to attack its head, abdomen, or legs, with its legs being the weakest part of its body. Unfortunately, it has relatively thick armor, forcing you to sharpen your tools reasonably often. If you have to use an Element-based weapon, you will want to use a Water or Thunder-based one, as these have the best chances of doing the most damage.

The most powerful attack the Flaming Espinas can use will occur when it begins to stand up on its legs and spreads its wings out. You will notice it is about to unleash an attack, which means it will release an area-of-effect fireball around itself. This attack will not harm you if you can get far enough away.
