Countermeasures against Radobaan

Recommended Weapon Element and Armor Skills

Recommended Weapon Element
Dragon Weapon	Radobaan is weakest against dragon.
Blast Weapon	Radobaan is also weak against blast, so if you have a stronger weapon that can inflict Blastblight, it is okay to use that as well.
Recommended Armor Skills
Mind's Eye/Ballistics	Rabobaan's bone armor will sometimes make your weapons bounce off; get Mind's Eye/Ballistics to solve this problem.
Tremor Resistance	Radobaan can incapacitate you through tremors with his huge jaw attack! Repel the tremors altogether with Tremor Resistance Lvl 3.
Sleep Resistance	Radobaan can make you sleep! Prevent sleeping by getting Sleep Resistance to Lvl 3.
Earplugs	Radobaan has a small roar, so Earplugs Lvl 3 should suffice.
Clutch Claw Boost	It might be useful to tenderize the tougher parts of Radobaan to get rid of his bone armor faster.

How to Beat Radobaan

Destroy the Bones

Normal	Destroyed

Radobaan is a unique monster that covers himself with a bone armor to make his body harder. You can destroy these bones by constantly attacking them with your main weapon. Once the bones are broken, that specific body part will be more vulnerable to your attacks.

Tripping Radobaan

You can trip Radobaan if you manage to deal some damage while he is performing his rolling attack. This will down him for a few seconds allowing you and your party to attack with your best combos.

Radobaan Tremors

Radobaan has a slow attack where he raises his head before slamming his jaws on to the ground. This attack is extremely powerful and it can stop your movements due to tremors if you are nearby. Be sure to keep your distance when you see Radobaan prepare for this attack to avoid any damage.
