Walkthrough

1
Brachydios is known for its punch attacks that coat hunters in slime.
2
This slime will explode if not removed by rolling 3 times or using Deodorant.
3
The safest area to attack Brachydios from is behind its hind legs.
4
When enraged, all of Brachydios’s attacks will detonate instantaneously.
5
When not enraged, Brachydios will stomp and drive its horn into the ground, creating a slime pool that expands and inflicts Blastblight if touched.
6
When enraged, Brachydios’s slime pool attack becomes a Linear Explosion, with a string of explosions moving forward from its head. Run perpendicular to its direction or towards its legs.
7
When enraged, Brachydios can perform a Corona Explosion by driving its horn into the ground, causing explosions around it. Run away as far as possible.
8
Brachydios’s tail whip is generally an opportunity for free hits due to its height, but the tail tip can still hit. Cutting the tail weakens this attack.
9
Brachydios’s Jump Attack involves leaping and landing heavily. If not enraged, it leaves slime pools; if enraged, it causes a large explosion. Dodge by running away from the landing spot, but be aware of full damage if near its toes when it jumps.
10
Brachydios will lick its forearms to replenish slime. If slime is depleted, attacks will not explode or leave pools but can still inflict Blastblight.
11
After defeating Gogmazios and deciphering Ancient Texts, you unlock Raging Brachydios.
12
Raging Brachydios is permanently enraged, attacks harder, and has four points (horn, two fists, tail tip) that change color (green to yellow to orange) and then pulse red, exploding for significant damage.
13
Severing the tail and breaking the other three points on Raging Brachydios slows the explosion rate and negates the tail explosion.
14
Raging Brachydios is fought only in Ingle Isle.
