My targets are Alatreon, Furious Rajang and Raging Brachydios

All complete bullshit in their own way with the Raging Brachy being the worst designed fight in this game BY FAR

omg I want to rip my hair out. You literally have ZERO time to react to his explosive slime pools.

His name is very accurate cus I'm literally raging right now.

I liked Raging Brachy. The game's stability further tanked after that update so I didn't get to fight Alatreon and Fatalis.

Furious Rajang isn't too much worse than regular Rajang unless the event quest versions are nerfed. I double carted on the quests I've fought it on, but still passed. Don't remember if I ever did the special assignment though.

I fought Alatreon once, triple carted, and then never went back to put a serious effort into it. I never bothered fighting Raging Brachy at all because the regular one was really annoying in Iceborne.

Wear blast resist.

Also if you haven't already, it's time to farm some elder dragons. Teostra is a good set for most weapons

I have anti-blast level 3 charm on and I feel like it does absolutely fucking nothing.

You LITERALLY can't avoid it's fucking attacks. I've died to this fucking thing like 20 times

I had one good run with a group of people that failed and went 22 minutes. 22 fucking minutes.

FFS, why must game developers create bullshit difficulty.

blast resist means you no longer need to worry about rolling the slime off. it doesnt mean you can stand in it and tank the explosion.

It makes you immune to blastblight and reduces blast damage which are the only dangerous things. If you're still struggling you probably need to upgrade your armor.

The hitbox of some of his attacks is absolutely bullshit. If I get killed by something that appears right undeath me, thats one thing. But some of his attacks will literally kill you while you're 10 feet away

The tougher monsters in the game are usually challenging for the wrong reasons

One hit kill attacks
Hitboxes that don't match the visuals

Those being the two worst and most common factors

The mid/high mid monsters are the most fun ( black odog, acidic glav, frostfang bari)

Agreed. A boss shouldn't be challenging because of the potential to wipe in one hit...I wish developers would understand how annoying this makes their games.

Also there's nothing more frustrating then being stunlocked into a pile of goop and knowing the second you regain control of your character, you're just gonna die, there's absolutely nothing you can do.

I killed Raging Brachy after a few attempts; blast res is ONE of the requirements, if you're getting stunlocked then get stun resist, abuse your mantles, augment your equipment with health regen, get recovery up, speed eater, etc
basically get more survivability
And of course, learn his patterns; after a few fights you'll get muscle memory on which maneuvers counter which attacks

Blast immunity and evade window. Dodge towards his lunging attacks. Use traps judiciously. Wallbang when you can.

If you haven't augmented your armor, then you're not really ready for the fight. That said, it's still not as bad as you're pretending it to be. I've done it with lance, gunlance, insect glaive, heavy bowgun, and bow, and got almost all of his weapons before I burnt out on the game. Having no time to react to the slime is just straight up false

Raging Brachy was the first monster in iceborne that reminded me that a lot of monsters can really fuck you up if you aren't prepared

(Plus it theme is badass)

Raging Brachy is probably one of the most stressful fight in the game. It's gear and weapons were also some of the best in the game at the time I played.

It probably took me like 6 hours to beat Alatreon, but I'm pretty sure after shaking some of the rust off I could kill it consistently again.

@Frosted_Midna
Are you on PS4/what are the last few crowns you need? I think I still need 4 or 5 more for the platinum too, off the top of my head I think I need: giant Velk, giant Ruiner, giant Scarred Garuga, small Namielle, and... something else that you can't get from the crown quests, I guess. We should combine our efforts if there's any overlap.

Keep going and make enough pieces for the armor bonus, it's a direct upgrade from Zorah as a Gunlance player.

Nice, he's generally considered harder than Furious Rajang so if you haven't done that one yet it shouldn't be so bad.

Alatreon is a different beast altogether. You'll probably have a bit of trouble finding randoms to fight him that know what to bring for the fight. I've always loved Alatreon, he's my favorite black dragon. I like his theme too.

As hard as Alatreon is, it'll end up being easier to solo because randoms are fucking terrible at it. I did it with the Gunlance, which was pretty fucking hard, but still less frustrating than firing the SOS.

PC version I am further than my PS4 file. My PC I need these as crowns...

Banbaro = Large Gold Crown
Coral Pukei-Pukei = Small Gold Crown
Nargacuga = Small Gold Crown
Seething Bazelgeuse = Large Gold Crown
Blackveil Vaal Hazak = Large Gold Crown
Yian Garuga = Large Gold Crown
Scarred Yian Garuga = Small Gold Crown
