I've no idea what otk means, but as a general rule give yourself paralysis immunity and as much thunder resistance as you conveniently can.

Try the ingot armor and eat full vegetable meal, you get like 50? Thunder resistance

Killed tempered Kirin with the full set of Ingot armor, mega demondrug and armor skin, hammer, bombs and fighting in the sloped area as much as possible

CB hit and run.

Axe draw + axe uppercut to the face every time she attacks. Prod with sword as she runs about to build phials. After repeated face blugeoning she eventually takes a stun and goes down. Use built phials to SAED, charges sword slam, AED and held B double slash. If she's not chain stunned she's close. So that again, she moved to a diff area. Once more, then final area change for sleep. Double mega barrel SAED. Night night pony.

Bring Thunderproof and Vitality mantle. The goal is to avoid 1 shots. She doesn't actually produce many instances of small damage. Kirin's dialing for the carting service just about every time she tries to hit you.

Thunder Resistance + Health Boost + Stun Resistance + Paralysis Resistance + Thunderproof Mantle + Fortify + Playing in solo

You've won!
I got the HR one by using the plunderblade a bit, lucked out with enough materials to get some kirin armor against it.

Full Thunder resistance and Antipara skills are quite helpful to have.

Beating it up with the hammer seems to be the easiest way imo. Just got to learn how to dodge the lightning a bit.

kirin its one the most boring and cancerous fights together with diablos, make 1 mistake and you get one-shoted.

so the only way to deal with that its to use cheap tactics just like the whole monster it is, abuse sticky ammo if you have a bowgun, if you are melee then its just hit and run tactic and never do a full combo.

I don't find Kirin hard. For the most part Kirin is just a eye exam. Just keep an eye out for blue hue/flash and dodge.
Maybe this video might help or at the very least give you a few laughs.

Gunlance. Guard +5 Guard Up. Nergigante's final gunlance.

FYI you can get elder dragons out of their special rage using dragon pod. Kirin is nothing without the rage so try doing that. Palico can make them drop it with palarang.

Also try using hammer. Just wait and position yourself at the sloped area then do the spinning attack until you mount it. after the mount kirin will be down and you're free to big bang his head. a few more hits to the head will knock him down and you can bang him again. That will take a good chunk of his health.

max lightning res. put thunder mantle on when he goes super sayian. heal any damage immediately. keep him by a ledge or a vine and just mount him.

dont bother hitting regions that aren't the horn.

get ONE, count it, ONE ATTACK, in after each of his and you'll be fine.

i can not stress this one enough, his HP pool is low, and you hitting the horn kills him at max speed, you dont need a 45second OMAGOSH, speed run, you need a 10minute kill.

sheath and run around until you see another optimal horn hit. get it, roll out, sheath and wait for the next opening. before you know it you'll have him limping around 7 or 8minutes and then the remaining 2mins will be spent climbing up to his nesty region. you planting bombs, and finishing him in the same exact manor in which you've been hitting him to get him limping.

killed kirin with exactly 4 moves on switch axe. up swing, down swing, jump attack. maul with sword mode while hes downed. and he was dead in 9mins. rest is just positioning and timing.

if you have to go see the melder and make 3x lightning res gems. itll cover any armor weakness and at least put yourself out of 1hko range.

Here is what I do.

1) Eat a a custom meal containing 100% veggies (this gives Elemental resistance Large)

2) Gear up with as much electricity resistance as possible.

3) Try to get anti-stun skills

4) Wear the thunder resistant mantle.

This should help immensely with hunting Kirin.

To add on to what most people said

Cat with coral orchestra gadget can give negate stun skill
