Monoblos

Learn Monoblos's attacks, weaknesses, and breakable parts in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Master strategies with Sonic and Flash Bombs to take down this ground-dwelling Flying Wyvern.

Alright, let's talk about Monoblos. This Flying Wyvern might prefer to keep its feet on the ground, but don't let that fool you – it's got a massive horn and it's not afraid to use it! It loves to charge, so you'll be dodging a lot. Its wings are mostly for show unless it's really in a bind.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Elemental: Ice, Thunder
• Status: Poison, Blast

Breakable Parts:

• Horn: Can be broken once. It will be visibly damaged.
• Tail: Can be severed and carved twice.
• Back: Can be broken once. Some of the spikes will be broken off.

Attacks:

1. Tail Swing: Monoblos looks back and then swings its tail heavily to the left and right.
2. Charge: This is its most frequent and hardest-hitting attack. Monoblos ducks its head, gains momentum, and runs you through with its horn. If you can bait it into charging near a cliff and dodge, it can get stuck, giving you free hits.
3. Burrowing Attack: Monoblos tunnels underground and bursts out from beneath you.
4. Tail Whip: With its club-like tail, Monoblos performs a deadly double 180 tail whip.
5. Horn Gore: Monoblos steps forward and tosses its head violently up and to the sides, goring you with its horn. This does massive damage and sends you flying.
6. Hipcheck: Monoblos faces you and jabs its hip out to the right. The hitbox can be tricky, so it's best to just stay away.
7. Side Chomp: A standard, fairly weak attack seen on other Flying Wyverns.

Strategy:

• This fight becomes incredibly easy if you bring plenty of Sonic Bombs and Flash Bombs.
• When Monoblos is not enraged and burrows, throw a Sonic Bomb. This will stun it and put it in a free Pitfall Trap.
• After it recovers from the stun, it might use its wings to fly up. Throw a Flash Bomb in its direction to bring it crashing back down.
• You can repeat this stun-and-bomb strategy until Monoblos enrages. When it's enraged, just focus on dodging and running around like crazy until it calms down, then go back to your bomb routine.
