One of the new monsters that this update bring is Silver Rathalos, returning since its last appearance in Monster Hunter Iceborne. This rare variant of Rathalos presents a faster, more violent behavior, and the temperature of the flames he breathes is so high that it has a white and blue coloration!
Similar to the Gold Rathian, Silver Rathalos is weak against Thunder and Water (particularly to the latter), so weapons like the Almudron, Zinogre, or Narwa lines may be convenient, but don't get your hopes up for status builds because he's immensely resistant to both Blast, Stun, and Poison especially. A difference between him and the golden wyvern, though, is that he's weaker against Slashing damage than Bludgeoning or Shooting, so Blademaster weapons like Dual Blades and Insect Glaives will work better.
