rathalos armour should be fine, not many armours are going to resist its fire attacks that are any good. If your going to continue to use a blade on it, then as its turning around, try to hit a full blown shot on its head the roll to the side to evade its next attack. If you make it fall onto its side its fire aura stops for a little while. Break its horns and it wont have that ability anymore. Oh, when hitting its head after it turns around and then rolling, u may still get hit, but dont worry, it doesnt take long to make teostra stumble and lose its aura. So if you get hit dont worry, just heal up and keep at it.
Also i would not recommend using a bowgun. Teostra will be too fast and you wont be able to get in a decent amount of shots. The only time i would suggest a bowgun is if teostra is in the desert and you use the bowgun guide for that where you dont go no where near it and high behind water in the cave.
Btw, a bow would be no good. Not unless its ur second time around and it has no aura. If it has its fire aura the arrows will just bounce off.
