Maren's Tip
Every enemy type has a weakness. Fire enemies melt with ice, ice enemies with fire. Gibdos are vulnerable to fire and lightning — stock those arrows!
Description
Diamond Talus are rare Stone Talus variants with diamond crystal ore bodies embedded in their rock frame. Defeating them yields multiple Diamonds — one of the most valuable crafting materials in the game. Their ore node placement on the upper back makes them uniquely challenging to attack.

How to Beat Diamond Talus
Diamond Talus ore node is embedded in the back near the neck — the most difficult positioning of any Talus variant. Use Ascend to climb its body and land on the back directly. Attacks on the diamond node shatter fragments that deal high damage. Bring a high-power weapon.
