Monster Hunter World has a plethora of new monsters for hunters to tackle. One of the most anticipated on the roster is the Tobi-Kadachi. This quick and nimble fanged wyvern can climb around the environment and easily dance around the hunter, making it tricky to land a solid blow. Here are some tips and tricks for taking it down.
This monster also has a habit of climbing around its environment, and jumping from tree to tree quickly to find an angle to attack. Make sure to keep a close eye on Tobi-Kadachi while it’s in the trees to avoid a surprise attack from above.
Like most monsters up until this point, the big danger areas on Tobi-Kadachi are directly in front of or behind the monster. While in front of the monster, watch for Tobi Kadachi to lean back far, winding up while opening its mouth wide. This shows that the monster is about to charge forward a pretty significant distance with a bite attack. Two things can happen during this attack. Tobi-Kadachi will either lunch forward directly in front of it once in a straight line, or the monster will lunge forward once directly in front of it and then a second time, changing direction towards its target. Both of these animations look similar, so the best thing to do is dodge away as far as you can to cover distance from a possible follow up bite. The other big hitting atack to watch for is Tobi-Kadachi’s flying tackle. The monster will crouch down for a brief second and leap into the air, spreading its limbs and fanning out its body to briefly slow itself down before spinning down towards its target. The animation for this attack is quick, but while the monster is in the air there is a brief moment that allows the hunter to dodge left or right to get out of the way of the attack. Lastly, while attacking from behind, the monster has a tail sweep which covers a fair amount of distance due to how long the tail is. The best way to prevent damage is to dive towards either of the monsters sides, avoiding the large arc of the attack.
During the battle, the Tobi-Kadachi will stop every now and then and tense up while small streaks of electricity flow over its body. Once the monster has charged up, the hairs along its head, spine, and tail will stick straight up. They will be charged with static and the monster will start to glow slightly. At this point, Tobi-Kadachi’s attacks will do more damage and deal thunder elemental damage as well. Once hit enough with thunder, the hunter will contract the thunderblight ailment. This will cause the hunter to be very susceptible to being stunned or paralyzed by attacks. To get rid of thunderblight, dodge roll around 7 times or take a Nullberry. Having a stack of these will prove very useful during this fight. Stacking up armor and charms with thunder resistance will also be beneficial to the hunter.
Using a blunt weapon like the hammer against Tobi-Kadachi is a good choice for the battle due to the monster being so low to the ground. It is easier to apply big damage to the head and stun the monster, allowing an opening for big damage.
