Namielle is a Large Monster in Monster Hunter World (MHW) Iceborne. ネロミェール (Neromyēru) in Japanese.
An Elder Dragon said to be able to command water and use it as a shield. Though very few sightings have ever been reported, they mention 'exploding water' and 'bright glowing lights.' Its existence remains shrouded in mystery."

- Event Quests: The Distant Dark Tide (Arch-Tempered), The Winter Blues (+ Velkhana), A Shocking Climax (+ Zinogre)
- It is docile until attacked.
- Has Turf Wars with: Savage Deviljho and Rajang
- Size:
1802.46 ~

Namielle Combat Info
- Kinsect Extracts:
- Red: Head
- Orange: Torso/Forelegs
- White: Wings
- Green: Tail
-
Enraged mode: Wings shift to a gradient of green, blue, and purple lights. Whiskers also glow blue.
-
The monster mainly sprays water, which applies
Waterblight. These streams of water also leave behind puddles, which enhance Namielle’s movement and attacks. Namielle can fire a thin beam at these puddles, causing them to explode, or create large waves with a sweep of its wings. Namielle can also absorb these puddles to recharge its reserves.
-
Namielle will charge up lightning, which can be seen arcing in its wings and body. Namielle can enhance its physical attacks with this electricity, or fly up and store the electricity in its tentacle-like wing tips, striking the ground as it flies overhead. This flight attack can easily apply
Thunderblight if it should hit. Any puddles hit with this electricity will vaporize, dealing extra damage if a hunter is in contact, but causing the puddle to disappear. Connected puddles can arc electricity for a short distance.
-
Will let out a distinct roar and leap upwards, its center surging with glowing electricity. It will then slam into the ground, causing a “supernova” effect. A small arc of lightning will deal a bit of damage, then a massive shockwave will cause every puddle in the area to explode. Namielle will then leave, drained of all water and scales a beige color. This attack is one of the fastest “elder specials”, and can easily take out a hunter. The dive move should be dodged, as areas such as the nest can be completely filled with puddles, making normal dodging ineffective. The total animation from roar to hit takes about four seconds.
The Arch-Tempered version of the Namielle monster can be extremely deadly. It's best for hunters to prioritize Range, and use the Canteen to get Felyne Insurance skill.
Special rewards: Arch-Tempered Namielle Pendant, Namielle Ticket - used to craft Namielle Gamma + Armor Set
Changes:
-
Significant damage boost. Your defense should be above 1000 at this point, and most attacks still take around 70 health.
-
Now leaves water puddles underneath it as long as Namielle is coated in Water.
-
Enrages easier (Like most tempered monsters). Every Slinger Burst needs to hit its target, because Namielle will enrage after every single one.
- Very Frequent use of the "Supernova" Move.
- Will now sleep in the middle of area 10 when near-death, preventing any wake-up flinch shots.
Some tips for hunters:
-
Ranged weapons work best
-
Extremely difficult without Health Boost 3
-
Vitality Mantle and Temporal Mantle are very useful.
-
Lifepowders and such are very useful if you intend to do it as a group.
-
Use Brightmoss to drain the puddles around the area
-
If your mantles are down and she is "electric" beware of OHKO from her slam
-
Patience! Slow and steady wins the quest
-
If you notice the camera zooming out, DROP EVERYTHING AND START RUNNING. That's the Supernova and its almost guaranteed a oneshot if you're caught in it.
-
The Supernova consists of two hits, one shock through all the puddles and a second one that makes all the puddles explode with a slighty larger blast radius.
-
Combined they can do serious damage through the bulkiest defense
-
Best avoided by diving right before Namielle hits the ground.
-
If you dodge it by standing outside the puddles, the Second hit may still hit you if you're standing too close.

Notes & Trivia
- It is known as the "Abyss Dragon".
- Moss can be used to soak up Namielle’s water spots. However, since Namielle uses so many water attacks, it is not recommended to focus on absorbing these spots. Rather, in tight areas, use the moss to create safe spaces from Namielle’s devastating “nova” attack.

definitely better looking, better themed, and better designed than Velkhana, and Velkhana is the face of the DLC. Namielle pops up with little explanation only to be one of the best fights in the whole game, doing appropriate damage with well thought-out attacks that aren't just variations of the same move, like Velkhana. Seriously if they made this monster just for the DLC it should've been the focus of the whole thing

I really wish that they made dual blades for her! It was such a good opportunity. I like the LS and the Swaxe though! The combo of a DB and her armor would have been perfect! Well let’s not dwell on that. Happy hunting and have a good day!

Ok I am back to share some probably not that good tips. Blight resistance is a must have. Always use blight resistance. Evade window does really help and if you don’t take blight resistance use Crisis. It will help counter the water blight and give you a free buff if you are lightning blighted. Also if you don’t take blight resistance take stun resist. When it comes to mantles always take temporal mantle and wait till he does the nova. The nova has one-shores me at full health with full Alatreon armor. If you use glaive take either a poison glaive with a fire kinsect or vice versa. If you use DB take the Wyvern Lovers. The Rath one. When it comes to armor I don’t know what to suggest. I used this but I just did it because I thought it looked good. For female anyway:
Glavenus head A
Brachydios Chest A
Glavenus Gauntlets A
Glavenus Waist A
Brachydios Leggings A
I thinks that’s all I have to say…for now….. Happy Hunting and don’t give up!!!

Her armor is absolutely PHENOMENAL for Dual Blades and Insect Glaive. The A set anyway. It doesn’t look that good though. I used layered armor. I might be back to put some tips out. Happy hunting!

Amazing and especially beautiful boss and fight
Blackveil Vaal Hazak left me with a sour taste because of its stupid Effluvium everywhere and often even camp inside of them (At some point, he was sitting between two trees and used that damn beam 4 times in a row while i couldn't get close because of the puddles)
But Namielle?
This combo of water and lightning attacks were incredible and felt fair too, including its own two beam attacks unlike Blackveil and especially Velkhana, with the later ignoring all terrain
Replaced Nergigante as my new favourite Elder Dragon fight so far

I managed to beat him first try. Waterproof mantle is a MUST. It makes all of his water attacks a literal joke. Hammer is really useful, as almost all of the areas you fight as slopes or ledges. For an introduction, shoot slinger ammo next to him and then wallbang. Wallbang is really good in general here. For his supernova, literally just run away from him, or superman.
- Anonymous
If you're fighting Arch Tempered Namielle I highly suggest bringing an elderseal weapon, I discovered that the supernova attack is done noticeably less than compared to no elderseal weapon. I tested this by using a fire weapon and then an elderseal weapon and it cut the amount of times the supernova happens by roughly half. I recommend this more than a fire weapon if you're more keen on surviving.
- Anonymous
When it has the water armor up, it's really ****ing annoying.

If you are an SNS person then you can effectively block the supernova.
Be warned while guarding, the supernova can still take out 50% of your health.
But if you forget to Superman (like me) it can save you from a heap of trouble.

I beat it first try. Just clutch claw the wings and you're good.
- Anonymous
hahah so easy for anyone struggling with him with Dual blades literally just spam the clutch claw in his tail if possible it never knocked me over from the tail only in front sometimes i did 80% of the damage or even more just by clutch clawing his tail lol (i had blight resistant too its good)
- Anonymous
This was really easy i spent only 8 potions, but it took me 36 minutes, cringe
- Anonymous
If you're struggling with her, a solid advise would be slotting in Resuscitate, as of writing, I still haven't checked what waterblight does, but I never noticed what it does since resucitate negates it AND buffs you too, only for 1 slot compared to resistor. I beat her on my first try using 2piece rathian, and 2piece of the armor that gives critical status. I'm using mr pink rathian longsword.
Tl;dr
Poison works best, resucitate even better.

I like it, but the hitzones make it rather annoying. After you Clutch Claw it's entire body (or at least the front legs and wings), it isn't so bad.
For a matter of fact, most people who say this and that monster is bad desgned and that's why they lose, are just pretty f***king much bad at the game. Get good instead of crying.

nova attack is incredibly annoying can one shot most hunters and arch tempered namielle spams that attack! SPAMS THAT ATTACK!!! just let that sink in.

I assume the 1st part of her big move does water damage, but what kind is the 2nd part (the one that actually f***s you up)? Water, Thunder, Raw, or some combination? I've played around with resistance and defense combos, and can't seem to decide which reduces it more
- Anonymous
I kept clawing her wings as DB the entire fight. She rarely knocks you off.
Hello my fellow hunters, Mortals seem to be having problems with this monster so I thought I could shed some light on some forbidden tips. I would recommend a fire weapon, You can do either Glavenus or Anjanath, or Rathalos. If you need Mantles just go to the steamworks and get a Celestial Wyvern Print. Water beams can be dodged by clutch clawing to the face and Resistor Jewels are helpful since you don't have to worry about water or lighting blight. Another weapon choice is Brachydios weapons because blast an stun are good. As for her Supernova, If the Camera zooms out and a puddle below her starts glowing, Just sheathe your weapon and superman dive. Anyway, My dads yelling at me to go to sleep so farewell and good luck my fellow hunters. (P.S if your having any troubles, comment down below and I will do my best to help.)

If you are havin trouble with tempered namielle and arch tempered namielle, I highly recommend using the wyvern strife dual blades due to her high weakness to both fire and poison. These dual blades with the proper element and ailment setup make every hunt for her so much easier. I only ever use dual blades for her so I don't have much experience with them, but the fact that I can complete her way more easily with them rather than my actual most comfortable to use main weapon set speaks to me about how good the setup is.

How are people having trouble with this thing? It's not that hard. Especially if you have full blackveil gear. If you're truly having difficulty, then step up your game, or don't even try alatreon.

Just a tip if your doing a distant dark tide which is an Arch-temperd Namielle hunt, is that the amount of Namielle tickets you get is I think random because on my second attempt beating her I got 2 tickets, Namielle parts, and an elder dragon gem. But the third time I defeated her I got 1 Namielle ticket, Namielle parts, No elder dragon gem, but 2 sealed stones and carved. The Namielle fight doesn't have a lot of changes but I think the beam goes both ways? The most noticeable change is the place u fight her and where she sleeps, I forgot where she goes but she sleeps in the big/wide area. Also since she's arch-temperd of course expect high damage from her since even if I have over 1114 defense I still can get 3 shotted so make sure you have at least over 1000 defense. Also she spams her ultimate move almost every time and sometimes doesn't even leave after she does it. Fire/dragon weapons is recommended and even elder seal just to make sure. Also the more people you fight with the higher her heath is like up too 86.000 HP! But fighting her alone she only has 36.000 HP (still kinda a lot). Ok i'm getting tired and I hope this helps bye!

This monster has both the worst mechanics and worst hitboxes of the entire game...

Black veil Hazaak gear is wonderful for this beast, speed eating, super recovery and naturally high defense. Also has good armor vs water moves. The armor also buffs dragon attacks, it has a fair 2 star defense against dragon, which is not bad. Strangely resistant to slinger ammo, when raging, piercing pods don't make it flinch.

She has more phys def when wet but takes more fire dmg, and takes less fire and more phys than dry.
Also why is this page saying "ranged works best" when her wings take no dmg from bullets... and are the biggest hitzone

I actually managed to slay Namielle on my very first try with just one other player in the quest. That was also the only time I slew it. Every other time I had a full party and we were just carting left and right. I think its easier with only two people because there is less health that way and because your palico can sometimes agro it, giving you and your partner more space to deal damage. But thats just my experience. Also, bring your waterproof mantle because those puddles WILL stunlock you and those lightning attacks aren’t as obstructive as those water attacks. You’re gonna do a lot of running so waterblight is a nono.
- Anonymous
Not really that different except that she attacks more often and will use her ultimate multiple times, and if you don't have have vitality 3 and great thunder resistance it will one shot you. i beat her on first try, i currently use mrkt gear which has wide range and speed eating which helped a lot. If you are having a hard time, have a elemental L meal, have high thunder resistance and use appropriate weapons.
Arch-Tempered Namielle is a challenging fight! Bring your mantles everyone!
- Anonymous
So just fought AT nami. She doesn't really have any new moves, but her old gimmick has been much enhanced. Anything that could put down water spots now does so in a bigger area, and her slide movement now leaves a huge trail of water. As such all her current drags and lightning shocks all have much higher range. In addition she starts electrified and doesn't ever stop, so her full moveset is always available. She may also NOT run after her ultimate now so give them a sec before you pat yourself on the back.

Do note that AT Namielle’s beam is shown to be going in the opposite direction than is standard in the trailer. While it’s unknown if there will be any “new” moves, there are definitely some tweaks to keep us on our toes!

People whining about Namielle being too easy are going to throw a hissy fit if they can’t solo AT Nami first try, like bruh make up your minds. In the meantime I’ll just be enjoying the light show.

I WAY overprepared for this fight lmao full set of blackveil vaal set A gear and a rank 3 thunder charm and nether chainblades made this fight a complete joke. I felt unkillable, didn't have to deal with blights, attacks didn't hit very hard so my armor usually healed it up over time and I killed it in 20 min on my first ever try. also just used vitality mantle and temporal cause its what I always use
- Anonymous
Did 4 temp namielle investigations earlier and everytime when she lost her "water armor" (for example after the supernova), my palico would put it to sleep a few seconds later and it would wake up with its water armor back up again. Dont know if bug or intentional, but that is so annoying. It happened in 3 out of those 4 investigations. and you put it to sleep, it will wake up having the water armor back up again. Dont know if this is intentional and happens everytime or it is a bug that happens occasionally

A very beautiful Elder Dragon. Easily one of my favorite 5th-gen monsters so far.

Honestly a very easy yet similarly infuriating elder dragon to first fight. Short weapons are a bit of an annoyance, since all attack move her forward, but that's not all that bad. Main annoyance was the hp bloat, I made the mistake of thinking I had time to restock on bombs, didn't realize she slept in Kirins area or that she would spend part of her fight in the tight platforms below. Just gotta always stay on her and pull her away from that annoying area, or that assignment will last a long while (especially with unupgraded weapons). Stupidly weak to blast though, one combo with the defender chainsaws and she's guaranteed to blow. I can see why she had such high hp for sure. Second easiest imo next to vaal perhaps, his fight was just cute.
- Anonymous
Of all the weapons for her to not have, I can understand a greatsword as it benefits less from additional element than faster weapons. But, dual blades? A staple of elemental weapons and nami doesnt have dual blades, that seems really bizarre to me. All of her other weapons benefit greatly from elemental damage and would be a massive boon with her set perk, and yet of the only 2 weapon types she doesnt have, dual blades not being a part of her arsenal just doesnt make sense to me. If it were up to me id either just give her one of each or just replace the hammer, not that I have anythign against the smashy boom boom stick

100% this is the original form of Vaal Hazak. I mean sure Kushala Daora was similar but this takes the cake. From movements and attack patterns it’s too similar to ignore. There’s a reason Vaal Hazak looks fishy and this monster is the reason why.

I usually go for Beta sets, but the male Beta set it looks bad imo, so Alpha set it is, Fashion Hunter.
15 water resistance, 5 lightning resistance. Level 1 or 2 vitality. (3 is okay but not needed) Rarity 10, 11, or 12 armor set upgraded to at least +3. That's literally all you need to be able to take very little damage from most of it's attack, and not die from being hit by it's strongest attack which it only does once or twice per entire mission. There are so many people dying in an SOS for this one and I think it's because people are neglecting their resistances.
