Hunt Strategy

Goss Harag is a Fanged Beast that freezes its own blood into deadly ice blades on its arms. Its powerful sweeping slashes and body slams deal heavy Ice damage and can inflict Iceblight. Fire element weapons are the best counter, and breaking its ice-covered arms reduces its attack range significantly.

Tips & Strategies

  1. 1Fire weapons are extremely effective -- they also help break the ice blades faster.
  2. 2Breaking the ice on its arms reduces its attack range significantly.
  3. 3Dodge to the side when it does the overhead ice slam -- it has long recovery.
  4. 4Bring Nulberries or Iceblight resistance to counter Iceblight debuff.
  5. 5It moves slowly between attacks -- use hit-and-run tactics with faster weapons.
