Lao-Shan Lung

Lao-Shan Lung, commonly referred to as "Lao", are gigantic dragons, popularly believed to be the size of mountains. These slow moving, red creatures stay in hibernation until it is necessary to leave. In Monster Hunter, Laos could only be fought online. The extremely hard scales on its back develops from the Lao walking directly through mountains.

Battle

 * During the quest to kill or repel the Lao-Shan Lung, it is important to know that the dragon never directly attacks you other than in area 2 or 4 when you are on the rock ledge, when the Lao will stand up on its rear legs, walk a few steps then bite you, and in area 5 if you are standing on the Fortress when the Lao stands to attack it, as he may decide to bite you.
 * However, it is easy to die by being stepped on or accidentally hit by his tail.
 * Armor high in Dragon resistance and defense (Hornetaur/Vespoid/Obituary set) can reduce the damage caused by this monster.
 * Laos can only be killed or repelled in Area 5. Repelling it is simply dealing enough damage so that it runs away when time is up. In Area 5, you can use the powerful ballista guns, cannons, and the extremely powerful Dragonator (can only be used once every 10 minutes) against the Lao to deal more damage. However, the ammunition for the ballistas must be carried as an item, and the cannonballs are transported from base camp to Area 5 in the same fashion as an egg or sootstone.
 * For link quests with two of more hunters, there is an advisory method for fighting it in zone 5: one person collects a cannonball, then the other fends off the pesky prey while cannonball hunter walks to 5.
 * Notice that when Lao walks, rubble falls from walls, this can be deadly to those near sides except on specific ledge points where it cannot harm you.
 * Gunners up against Lao-Shan Lung should note that the weakest point in his armour is the back side of the plating on his back; fire at this when on ledges.
 * Lao Shan also possesses a roaring attack, which can slow hunters down. However, he only uses this in Area 5.
 * His horn can be broken during battle, and it is possible to jump on his back for up to 3 carves and to plant Anti-Dragon Bombs.
 * If you're trying to get to base camp, and you need to pass the tail, use a farcaster, or you might get swiped by it's huge tail. It is possible to run past the tail, just highly risky.

Trivia

 * The name Lao Shan Lung is derived from the Chinese abbreviation of "Old(Lao) Mountain(Shan) Dragon(Lung)" or "老山龙". Though not properly, the word "Lao" in chinese can also mean "Great".


 * Lao Rubies can only be obtained via Azure Lao-shan Lung in MHF2.
