Recommended Armor/Def to fight Ancient Leshen?

what is the recommended armor/defense to fight Leshen?

I keep getting one-shot by the roots and crows. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

I'm also looking for friends. Happy Hunting!

Most parties will need a dedicated support. You, in the mean time, will need 200 health. This is pretty much mandatory if you've never done Adult Groot before. Otherwise, it will be very heavy and wasteful for support. If you're 150 health, a lot will go to waste because the heal hit the cap.

Better yet, your wpn should have Health Regen also. This will take a lot of load off your support.

Put flash pod crafting in the radial menu/shortcut. You'll need them.

Tempura Mantle is mandatory, Vitality Mantle and Health Vape are good seconds.

Since Adult Groot is small, and many people will be attacking it at once, if you have wpns that stagger easily like lance, equip Flinch Free for yourself. You don't know if you'll run into DB or LS. They deal good damage, so many vets helping will run them.

4 Fire Signs (on average) will burn Adult Groot and make him flail. It also helps with roots and freeing your teammates. Put the stone in the shortcut.

Bring fire weapons and partbreaker; AL is extremely weak to fire, and partbreaker works on reducing his spawn times if you break is head and shoulders

Is a fire GS worth using, or is raw GS still the way to go?

Head is 20 fire, body 10. 20 is not that great, so fire is only worth on DB, Bow, SnS, CB, IG.
Also, there is no melee weapon with 100% head hit uptime, even LS has to hit the body. So averaging the two fire hitzones you're looking at a mean 15 fire, which is bad.

I can give you some reference here. My fire LS deals less damage than raw LS with spirit helm break but a bit more damage with normal spirit slash but I prefer to use raw because helm break damage exceeds the damage loss in spirit slash. I believe it’s the same for GS if you use charge attacks more often than the round slash attack (not sure what this move is called).

SA works really well with fire for AL. Especially with zsd and temporal
