Guardian Ebony Odogaron Moveset
Odogaron thankfully has a pretty small moveset, but it hits quickly and without mercy, making it a difficult monster to kill in MHW. Here are all the different moves it might try on you and how to avoid each one.
Claw Attacks
-
-
The Guardian Ebony Odogaron has two different claw attacks. It will try to hit you with one hand, rearing back with that hand before it smacks into you. In order to dodge this one, it’s best to dodge to the outside of the attacking hand. The second claw attack is the same but with both claws. It will rear back, then slam into the ground with both claws, hitting first with one then the other. You can tell it’s coming when it stands up on its back legs. To get away you need to dodge roll backwards.
Tail Swipe
-
-
The tail swipe happens when the monster hops toward you. It will hop, land, then swing its tail around at you with lightning-fast speed. The tail will then bring up an explosion from the ground where it hits. This tail roll can either swipe to the front of itself or horizontal. To get out of the way of this move you need to roll to the left or right of the monster.
Bite Slam
-
-
Watch for the Guardian to open its mouth. When it does, it will build up dragon damage in its mouth, then leap forward and bite, then slam its mouth closed and upward. You need to dodge to the left or right to make sure you are out of the way of this move. Don’t get behind it, as it can make a blast of Dragon energy from its tail.
Tail Spin
-
-
When Monster Hunter Wilds‘Odogaron lifts up its tail like this, it will then spin a circle. Anyone standing in melee range will get smacked, so you just need to roll backwards away from the monster to avoid taking any damage from this one.
Spit Attack
-
-
When Odogaron leaps into the air near you, it will often spit a massive cloud of Dragon attack directly at you. It will be preceded by a hop and its mouth glowing with smoky red light. It will then throw up a bunch of red Dragon attack and spatter it all on the ground around you in a small AOE. Then it land in it. It’s best to roll backwards to get away from this move.
