Tips on Beating Ebony Odogaron in Monster Hunter World Iceborne

Ebony Odogaron subspecies will always be on the hunt for its next meal, so you can often spot it carrying fresh kills in its mouth. But, when Ebony Odogaron does end up eating, the monster will go into a frenzy, which you don’t want happening.

When frenzied, it uses dragon elemental attacks, but you can hit its head with your own elemental attacks to help calm it down. The key to success is to also keep it from feeding whenever you can.

If you do end up getting hit by it, you might be inflicted with bleeding, which will gradually deplete your health. To remedy this, all you have to do is get away from the action and crouch down for a few seconds and the bleeding will stop.

To sum things up:

  1. Aim for the head to help calm down Ebony Odogaron after it gets frenzied.
