| Weak points | Court | Impact | Shooting |
| Head | ★★★ | ★★★ | ★★ |
| breakable parts | Head and Horn |
The Kirin is the smallest Elder Dragonbut we can’t let it fool us, it’s agile and lethal, with a lethal ray power. The best will be use Fire against him, yes not Ice, but no Lightning obviously. On the other hand, the better our armor against paralysis and lightning, the better we will need it. We can apply Nitro or Sleep, although it costs a little it ends up working.
When he gets angry, he covers part of his body with armor and repels most of the attacks. Be careful at that point, we will have to attack head-on.
