You want to focus on Slashing and Blunt weapons while battling against a Lunagaron. Ammo weapons work fine, but those will primarily want to focus on the creature’s head, which is challenging to land a reliable hit while it moves around. If you’re using an Elemental weapon, avoid relying on Water and Ice and instead use Fire, Thunder, or Dragon, with Fire being the best of the three.
