Using a light bowgun is my preffered weapon in fighting this critter. Either the rathalos bg (FireS rapid) or the demonlock (CragS rapid). Hitting him with crags or dealing enough damage may knock him off the ceiling which leaves the ggnx flailing on its back.

MHP3 Protip: Hitting the giginox while it is jumping towards you from the ceiling will make it stop mid air and fall on its back. If succesful, it will also drop a shiny. Very hard and not recomended for nonBG users as it requires perfect timing (if hit too late it may still hit you before it falls). Also possible with melee weapons.

MHtri tip: while the ggnx is eating an ally, hitting the head and dealing enough damage (blunt prefferably) will knock it off the ceiling, giving your team free hits. Dung bombs also works in freeing yourself and your allies but it will just retreat back to the ceiling.

POISON NEGATE SKILL! If you don't have it, which I don't either, bring lots of antidotes and get ready to dodge those poison attacks!
