This Hunter Rank (HR) 50 minimum requirement quest will have players fighting against an Arch-Tempered Rey Dau in the Windward Plains for some of the strongest armor pieces in the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cut above the regular and Tempered versions, the Arch-Tempered Rey Dau hits extremely hard and can eliminate hunters with a single attack. You should always be wary of a Rey Dau\u2019s wing and tail slams, but you really need to watch for the deadly beam attacks that come out of its horns. An Arch-Tempered Rey Dau will always cover its head with its horns before firing a beam attack, giving you a few seconds to <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/tips\/monster-hunter-wilds-how-to-do-a-superman-dive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dodge<\/a> or block it. The Rey Dau\u2019s unique anatomy when it performs its beam attacks coupled with the beams\u2019 Thunder affinity has players calling it the \u201crailgun\u201d monster.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1273\" height=\"716\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1273px) 100vw, 1273px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-001.jpg\" alt=\"Arch-Tempered Rey Dau armor\" class=\"wp-image-47566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-001.jpg 1273w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-001-768x432.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the Arch-Tempered Rey Dau\u2019s strongest attacks are Thunder-based, you\u2019ll want to <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/tips\/monster-hunter-wilds-how-to-switch-between-female-and-male-armors-clothes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">deck yourself in armor pieces<\/a> that offer high Thunder resistance. Using the regular or Tempered Rey Dau armor set pieces will provide you with a good amount of Thunder resistance on your first few Arch-Tempered Rey Dau attempts. You can swap these pieces for the Rey Dau \u03b3 armor pieces once you\u2019ve acquired enough Arch-Tempered Rey Dau parts.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1273\" height=\"717\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1273px) 100vw, 1273px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-002.jpg\" alt=\"Arch-Tempered Rey Dau weaknesses\" class=\"wp-image-47567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-002.jpg 1273w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-002-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/20250430-47563-002-768x433.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As for offensive options, the Arch-Tempered Rey Dau is weak to Water and Ice-based attacks.

Unfortunately, there are currently no new weapons that can be crafted from Arch-Tempered Rey Dau parts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cA Silent Flash\u201d Event Quest runs until May 13 at 11:59 pm UTC.
