- Pukei-Pukei can poison you - before you go hunting, make sure you have an Antidote or Herbal Medicine and potions;
- Focus on attacking the monster's head - this is the weakest point on the body. Try to cut the monster's tongue off, so you deprive it of its most dangerous weapon;
- Pukei-Pukei uses food as ammunition, so as soon as he begins to chew something, it will be a sign that it will immediately begin to throw poisoned food in your direction.
