Best Solo Weapon for AT Teostra?

[WrathOfSammy]

I usually use Bow or LBG. Neither seems great against him. What do other people suggest?

[Armgard]

Lance is a really good and easy option for the fight, as almost always. Just make sure to send away your cat so you can focus on the head.
Gunlances also make the hunt relatively effortless but take longer, especially the longs.

Bow has been working great for me. It sounds like your playstyle or build is holding you back.

Hammer is also a really good solo weapon for teo.

[Stationary Traveller]

Time to become an adult and use the big boi gun.

[Kaldor Draigo]

For me is Charge Blade, Glutton and Long Sword.

It's my build. I don't have an augmented bow yet, and my decorations are awful thanks to poor RNG. But I can poison every monster in the game with one shot! LOL!

I steamroll the fight with wide 4 gunlance shelling.

Oh man I feel your pain on the decorations. You should still be fine without the major ones though. Legia Snowfletcher with some frost jewels, tenderizer and whatever else you can throw in worked great against tempered teostra for me.

If you get the chance, try going with a hammer. Teostra's moveset is pretty easy to work around and the ledges set you up for some consistant aerial smashes.

Then you shouldn't rely on decos to make you sets. You can build pretty sick sets without decos.

Lance trivializes the whole fight. Just don't get greedy and try anything fancy. Block and stick to simple pokes.

[Lemonidas of Sourta]

Legia Snowfletcher, health boost 3 charm, Rathalos elemental Crit set and yer pretty much set. No need for fancy decos. (although, mighty bow jewel helps a LOT).

Start the fight with a temporal mantle and affinity booster. When they wear out and monster moves to new region, go back to camp and take health booster and fire mantle this time. By the time they run out and monster moves to next region, travel to nearby camp and re-equip temporal and affinity and you're back in action. I personally use an evasion mantle instead of temporal one, but hey whatever you find easier.

PS: use the Kushala Waist plus one frost jewel and Teostra arms to get Weakness Exploit and Ice Attack to level 3.

Both lances are good, LBW ICE crit too. With Lance gameplay learned 95% of monsters are easy.

His main weakness is water, not ice.

It is weak both to Ice and Water with 3 stars each one.
