Recommended Strategy:

Fighting the Savage Deviljho is challenging. Bring traps, Flash Bombs, Bomb Barrels, and consider an ally with Sleep Shots. Ensure you eat a good meal and bring plenty of buff drugs. The Barrel Alarm Clock technique is effective: put the Deviljho to sleep with a weapon or item, pile large bomb barrels around its face, followed by a small barrel. The small barrel detonates the larger ones for massive damage. Use smart hit-and-run tactics, as its stomp prevents prolonged engagement at its feet and its bites make the face dangerous. Stay near the monster to react to Dragon Breath and constantly move around it. Be extremely careful, as Savage Deviljho can use Dragon Breath more often and its attacks can chain together, such as a bite into a Dragon Breath.
