Blackveil Vaal Hazak struggle
well title says it all. I'm struggling really hard with blackveil vaal hazak i just cant beat him. Previously i had to struggle with Velkhana but vaal's taking it to another level. Does anyone have some tipps for me how to do it? Using Chargeblade and Rathalos Set B+ and Glavenus Bardred for vaal. I'm also always taking Nullbery with me. Nothing works......

Other than that, try to avoid standing in clouds for extended periods, moving through them shouldn't be too dangerous but if the clouds are everywhere it'd probably be worth moving to a fresh area and letting Vaal come to you.

Never fight Vaal without full effluvia resistance; the one that makes you immune to build-up. No sense in bringing nulberries if you need to sheathe your weapon every 5 seconds to use them; might as well just be immune to the effect itself.

Other than that, the fight is just like before. Dodge the slow, super-telegraphed attacks, maybe use a health booster so you can tank through all that passive damage you're taking, and just keep hitting it.

Craft the miasma charm (effluvian resist lvl 3, grants immunity to the status effect) if you can, or slot in the decorations. Makes it waaay easier.

What is your skill builds? You sure you not forgot defensive skills like health boost?

Other than effluvia resistance, if you can augment your weapon then having health lifesteal would help in sustained battles around the green area especially. Be careful of vespoid and girros around the area, may want to clear them up around before starting the battle. In iceborne, they can be quite nasty but even hitting a dead girros body could regain you some HP, especially CB got some wide-range attack too.

This sounds like the story sanctioned first encounter.

As such they won't have Health Augments unless they brought it in on a High Rank Weapon and there won't be Girros to deal with, though there should be infected Jagras and Wingdrakes scattered about the forest along with the Vespoids milling around the Poisoncup area.

Blackveil Vaal Hazak is almost identical to his earlier cousin Vaal Hazak. Since you already went pass Vaal Hazak in HR, there is no reason you can't deal with Blackveil.

Well, unless you are were rushed by SOS...

finally managed to do it. :)
Nah i wasnt rushed i played most of the time alone and boosted friends by my own xD
i think my main problem was that i didnt quiet knew his moveset and the clouds hes making are so annoying and sometimes not very good to see on the floor. But tbh i think blackveil vaal is different to the normal one in some ways and that is the thing creating problems for me i guess
