• Occasionally, Jaggi, Wroggi, and their larger counterparts will attack the Green Nargacuga. It may also attack them.
• Green Nargacuga's tail can be cut even if the monster isn't enraged, similar to the change to the regular Nargacuga in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd.
• The Green Nargacuga is unique in that its tail spikes are capable of causing KO and doesn't cause the hunter to be sent flying.
• After the second tail slam, the Green Nargacuga takes a longer time to pull its tail off as compared to a single tail slam, leaving itself more vulnerable for attack.
