Soloing Ukanlos

Hello!

I unlocked my Hunter Rank (up to 53) and didn't find much love in getting a partner for this final quest. I attempted it solo but triple carted after 35 minutes. I want to give it another shot by myself just for stubbornness sake, but this time go in even more prepared.

I was using Arachnoscale+ but I don't think poison even is worth it in this fight. I'm considering Dear Hecatelia (540 raw 360 fire - element) or Bardichion Blade (612 raw 200 fire - impact), since he's weak to fire. Dear Hecatelia has lots of blue sharpness and I think element might be easier if I'm just trying to hit this guy as much as I can without getting stomped.

Any additional tips? I handled Akantor solo pretty ok, and I feel like I almost killed Ukanlos (tail severed, bits broken) so I really want to nail this big boys coffin.
