Water Weapon | Ebony Odogaron is weakest against water. |
Recommended Armor Skills | |
Dragon Resistance | Before you break its head, a lot of Ebony Odogaron's attacks will have extra Dragon damage. Dragon Resistance will be useful for negating some of it. |
Blight Resistance | Since getting Dragonblight is hard to notice in the middle of a fight, it might be worth it to build Blight Resistance to Lvl 3. |
Bleed Resistance | If you do not have any meat to consume or if you just do not want to waste time eating or crouching, getting Bleed Resistance to Lvl 3 will be helpful. |
Earplugs | Since Ebony Odogaron has a small roar, getting Earplugs to Lvl 3 should be enough. |
Clutch Claw Boost | It can be difficult to break Ebony Odogaron's head, especially during his enraged mode, so every hit counts. Keep it tender! |
The Ebony Odogaron is a subspecies that utilizes the Dragon element to enhance its attacks. Physically, the Ebony Odogaron looks the same as its normal Odogaron counterpart. However, its health and damage are significantly higher.
Try to aim for the head to take him down and remove the Dragon element from his attacks. Be sure to use your clutch claw to soften up the head if you are having a hard time aiming for the head break.
Ebony Odogaron's claw attacks are guaranteed to inflict Bleeding if it lands. This can be troublesome especially when fighting against fast-moving monsters like Ebony Odogaron. Be sure to carry an Astera Jerky immediately to cure this if you are getting targeted. However, if the Ebony Odogaron's attention is elsewhere. You can just crouch for a few seconds to cure the bleeding without having to use an Astera Jerky.
Ebony Odogaron can inflict the Dragonblight status especially if you are constantly getting hit by the red lightning from his attacks. You can counter this by using gears with high Dragon Resistance or Blight Resistance to completely nullify its effect. However, if it is not possible, you can always use a Nullberry to cleanse the status ailment.
When Ebony Odogaron is enraged, it will gradually have a bright red glow coming out of its mouth. This is the signal that the Ebony Odogaron is about to use the Dragon Breath. To avoid this attack, you can just move forward and backward repeatedly until it is over.
Since the Ebony Odogaron is always looking for food, you can use this to your advantage by placing a piece of meat near your traps and restrain the Ebony Odogaron.
