First Elder Dragon in Wilds
Gogmazios first appeared in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate as the final boss of that game. It will be making its return in Monster Hunter Wilds as its first Elder Dragon. It fights by using sticky and explosive oil and has a railgun-like weapon lodged in its back. Dealing enough damage to its back allows you to break the weapon loose and use it against the monster.
It appears in the Forgotten Machineworks, an arena located underneath the Oilwell Basin. Inside it are numerous Environmental Traps that can be used during the Gogmazios fight, including the Ancient Forge.
How to Beat Gogmazios
Phase 1
| Gogmazios Phase 1 Tips |
|---|
|
|
Use Fire Weapons to Soften Oil
Fire weapons are a must when fighting Gogmazios, as they can turn the oil on its body from solid to liquid. Once it becomes fluid, you can then swap to a dragon weapon to deal more damage.
Equip Guard Up on Applicable Weapons
If your weapon is capable of blocking, such as the Great Sword or Lance, make sure to equip Guard Up on them. This allows you to block some of Gogmazios' attacks, such as his oil spit.
Fire Resistance is a Must
As Gogmazios deals primarily Fire damage, it is important to get at least 20 Fire Resistance to negate Fireblight. This can come in the form of the Fire Resistance Skill, or via food.
Aquatic/Oilsilt Mobility Can Help Reduce Slowdown
If you are having trouble with the slowdown caused by the oil pools that Gogmazios places in the arena, taking Level 1 Aquatic/Oilsilt Mobility can help reduce the slowdown effects. There is no need to take Level 2 as that only protects you against waves.
Attack Its Wingarms and Head
Attacking Gogmazios' wingarms is the easiest way to bring them down. As such, focus your attacks on it while it is still standing. Once Gogmazios falls to the ground, focus your attacks on its head.
Alternatively, you can also attack its tail to help cut it off down the line.
Use the Environment to Deal Damage
There is a clump of Deteriorated Scrap Metal hanging from the ceiling of the first area. This can be pulled down onto Gogmazios to deal damage to it and potentially knock it down. Make sure to wait for Gogmazios to be under the Deteriorated Scrap Metal before pulling it down.
Use the Compact Anti-Wyvern Gun
Once the oil on Gogmazios' body softens, you will be able to get Slinger ammo from it, namely the Compact Anti-Wyvern Gun. This slinger ammo can be charged up, and shoots a laser at the target. Try to aim for Gogmazios' head or wings to deal a lot of damage.
Get and Use Supply ltems
Make sure to also get the supply items provided by the quest you should find EZ Lifepowders and EZ Dust of Life to help keep you and your companions alive.
Phase 2
| Gogmazios Phase 2 Tips |
|---|
|
|
Climb Up The Raised Area
After dealing enough damage to Gogmazios, he will breathe fire onto the arena and make the entire lower area a burning zone. You will constantly take damage while in the lower area, even with terrain resistance skills, so make sure to get on your Seikret and climb up the raised area. Once you are there, Gogmazios will prop himself up onto the raised area, leaving his arms and chest open to attack.
Use Fire and Dragon Weapons
If parts of Gogmazios still have solidified oil on them, make sure to attack them using Fire weapons until they turn liquid. Once they turn liquid, start attacking it with dragon weapons.
How to Switch and Change Weapons
Use the Environment to Deal Damage
While on the platform, you will have access to numerous Environmental Traps that you can use to deal damage to Gogmazios. This includes the Ancient Forge, another clump of Deteriorated Scrap Metal, as well as large Hunks of Blastcoal that you can throw at Gogmazios, similar to Barrel Bowling. Take advantage of these traps to quickly stagger Gogmazios and leave him vulnerable to attacks.
You can also use these Environmental traps (the Ancient Forge and Deteriorated Scrap Metal specifically) to stop Gogmazios from performing its powerful laser attack. This is especially helpful when trying to connect the three Loose Nexus to the Elderbreaker.
Focus on its Back When it is Down
Once Gogmazios is knocked down, you must focus on attacking his back. Dealing enough damage to his back will dislodge the Elderbreaker, which will drop in the direction his back was facing.
Connect All Loose Nexus to the Elderbreaker
Once the Elderbreaker has been removed from Gogmazios' back, you must then connect the Loose Nexus onto it. There are a total of 3 Loose Nexus that you can connect to the Elderbreaker to charge it up.
It is important to note that you are vulnerable to attack while pulling a Loose Nexus. As such, players who are not pulling on a Loose Nexus must continue attacking Gogmazios to draw its fire away from the vulnerable players. It's important to remember that you can drop the Loose Nexus to dodge attacks, as staying alive is a higher priority.
Let the Elderbreaker Charge Before Firing
Once all three Loose Nexus are attached to the Elder Breaker, you can then fire it at Gogmazios. To maximize your damage, make sure to charge the Elderbreaker to 100%. Once it is fully charged, aim it at Gogmazios and fire. Alternatively, you can also wait for Gogmazios to approach the Elderbreaker before firing. You should deal 67,650 damage with a fully-charged Elderbreaker.
Shooting the Elderbreaker will knock Gogmazios down for a short amount of time, opening it to more attacks. Once you deal enough damage, Gogmazios will leave the area. Follow it with your Seikret.
Phase 3
| Gogmazios Phase 3 Tips |
|---|
|
|
Use Dragon Weapons
During Phase 3, Gogmazios' will be in its gaseous state. As such, switch over to your dragon weapon to maximize your damage output. The Compact Anti-Wyvern Gun also deals dragon damage, so make sure to use them.
Use the Compact Anti-Wyvern Gun While It Is Airborne
Gogmazios will mostly be flying during this phase of the fight. To deal damage to Gogmazios, as well as knock him down on the ground, use the Compact Anti-Wyvern Gun to shoot its weakpoints. This includes its wings, tail, and head. Dealing enough damage to Gogmazios this way will knock him down from the sky. Make sure to charge the slinger ammo by holding down on the input then releasing it to maximize damage. You'll know you're hitting good spots if you deal 400 damage or more.
Use the Environment to Deal Damage
There are two Falling Chimney Pillars in the area that you can pull down to deal damage to Gogmazios. You can also use these to knock Gogmazios down from the sky. Make sure that Gogmazios is near the pillars to ensure that it gets hit.
Make Sure to Succeed the DPS Check
| Nadia's Voice Lines in Response to DPS Check | |
|---|---|
| Failing | "We're not keeping its power in check! Keep attacking!" |
| Average | "We seem to be containing its power! Keep it up!" |
| Success | "We've got its power in check!" |
After some time, Gogmazios will start charging up a powerful attack. Take this moment to deal as much dragon damage as you can to it. Dealing enough dragon damage to Gogmazios, both during the charge-up and before, will decrease the damage of its special attack.
You can tell how well you are doing in the DPS check by listening to Nadia's voice lines throughout the fight. As long as your DPS is average or above, you should be able to survive Gogmazios' special attack.
Defend Against Gogmazios' Powerful Attack
After decreasing the damage of Gogmazios' special attack, Fabius will tell you to get behind him and his shield. This will cancel out the damage of Gogmazios' special attack once he lands. If you fail the DPS check, Fabius won't be able to properly block the damage.
Alternatively, you can either block the attack yourself if you have a weapon that can guard, or climb any high-ground areas that are still standing.
