Guide to Defeat Somnacanth
With the Somnacanth, you must go for the Neck and the Head. They are the most sensitive areas of the Monster, thus making it easier to kill him if you use your weapons here. On the contrary, the entire rear site, the back, and the abdomen are very protected, so it is not worth it. Also, with elemental attacks, if perhaps the Lightning, but it is not that they are very effective.
On the other hand, like a good Leviathan, its incredible ability to swim makes it a tough Monster to defeat, which is why it is best to attract it towards the land and away from the shore to kill it. Remember to use the chordopter if it throws its sleeping powder because if it hits you, you will have a pretty bad time.
