So I’m back with some more tips. I would HIGHLY recommend using a water or ice weapon. That’s of course assuming you want to get rid of the flashpoint slime. I personally don’t like to get rid of the slime on his arm because when he has it it means less mines in the arena. When it comes to fighting this guys I would say take caution because he hits extremely hard and is really fast. He has a lot of tricks up his sleeve so just be warned . When you get to the last stage it usually gets better there. But when he does his supernova RUN away from him. The damage when he hits you with his fists is ridiculous. Well that’s it for now! Hope everyone has a blessed day! Happy Hunting!

use GS you will get a lot of topples if you can hit it

Submit

This fight is not fun period

Submit

This beast was implemented after over almost a year of of Guiding Lands farming, gear optimization and the Safi'jiva siege. It's not meant to be fought at MR24! Get to MR100 first, feed the steam machine, upgrade your gear, get life regen on your weapon and you will succeed eventually. Your reward will be one of the best armor sets in the game so do your homeworks!

i wish he had turf wars would love to see him go head to head with a furious rajang

Submit

Finished it with 4 mins remaining 10/10 fight so intense not annoying

Submit

I find it funny that all the fights that everybody hates I love. This is an example.

He is very fast and hits like a freight train so I would highly recommend taking defense boost for this fight. If you haven’t been taking health boost during Iceborne now is the time to take it. You are going to need around 1000+ Defense so I recommend Shara or Damascus. If you have the option though take Alatreon armor. Always take a water or ice weapon! You want to keep the slime of his arms! I also recommend evade window and/or the evade extender.
He is tough and don’t be surprised if you cart once. Once you get to the nest he isn’t that bad. You have to be careful because he is very good at chaining his attacks. He also can trick you into thinking he is going to start moving forward while smashing or just doing one punch and moving to the other side of the area. I carted to this many times. Oh you might also want to take attack boost because he has a lot of health. Remember he is tough and he will take many tries. Personally this is one of my favorite fights but I know people don’t like him. Don’t give up and happy hunting!

my first few attempts were horrible and unfun and then randomly I found myself in the final phase and won with only minor complications; had less health than I expected, although I don't know what I was expecting since it still took 21 minutes
I still think it's incredibly annoying that neutralising the flashpoint slime creates an explosion shortly after, you can get cheated out of a proper topple punish because of it

Submit

I suppose he's fair enough. Cancer is after all the hardest battle to win.

Submit

I'm surprised i got him on my first attempt considering the only preparation i did was get a frostfang barioth weapon, i feel what really helped was rolling in during attacks and just doing as much damage as i could while underneath him as its relatively safe there, but that could just be switch axe stuff

Submit

I think i've died to this guy more times than i've died to Malenia. He geniunely makes me want to stop playing the game entirely (i won't tho because i love it) and it's because i just feel like i'm not really doing any mistakes while fighting him: i play very safely, remove the slime from his hands whenever i can and i usually just die because bullshit hitboxes on some attacks or just because some random slime puddle he put on top of lava (thus making it near invisible) 23 years ago blew up behind me and nearly one shot me. I've even tried sending an SOS flare, something which i've literally never done before in the game but nobody came. i like challenging fights but it's because i feel like i improve with each failure, while this one just feels depressing. Do you guys have any tips? i already use blast resist 3 and i can't imagine anyone beating him without it. I guess i'll try fully devoting my build to health/defense as i've seen it work for some people online...

Submit

got 2 reactors from carving this bomber, i can finally rest

Submit

This guy alone made me switch from GS to LS. No matter what I did, just could not survive. These hitboxes are insane, but persevere hunters, we'll make it through this. We always have.

Submit

He also does fire element damage and inflicts fireblight.

Submit

Idk why this fight is such a big deal to most people, I found it really easy and thought it was super fun and had a really cool, unique design.

Submit

This fight sucks. Boss is too big for anywhere, hitboxes are beyond ****ed, and hits like a massive truck. Worst fight in the game

Submit

This is the best fight in the whole game!! It is SO fun!
You can thumbs me down but it won’t change my mind. It’s a challenging fight and Challenge=Fun

His roar is like taken from t-rex roar sound. B)

lol awesome final phase. she locked herself with me, poor raging mf.

Imo a well-designed fight, not really that difficult in terms of strategies but just hits very hard & is unexpectedly mobile. Final phase was really ****ing epic ngl

slime drop rate is too much.

actual cancer, harder then solo Kulve

killed it with the beo ig

Submit

I'm finding this fight incredibly dificult! I have yet to git gud, and I've gotten help on pretty much every assigned quest. But then I've soloed every monster at some later point. This guy left (and whatever comes next), and I just get instagimped. Died twice before getting SOS help, died again immediately. I guess I should go for some blast resistance, maybe even defense. Go for durability over dmg..

GIMME THE GODDAMN REACTOR

Submit

From what I experienced as an elemental CB user, I equipped my palico a sleep status weapon and a flashfly cage gadget, and just do an SAED on Brachy's head whenever he sleeps and flinching him with Boombug and Thunderbug cage as much as possible. He slept on me 2 times then went into his area for his last phase. Then I went back to camp to restock and change my palico gadget to a meowlotov then tenderized his arm and ordered a Meowcano.

Submit

During this fight i went from "**** THIS GUY" to "This is ****ing awesome" when phase 2 started, probably my favorite fight.

Submit

Am I a noob for finding him very difficult even though it’s been months after it’s been added to iceborne?

Submit

Who would win?
Furious Rajang or raging brachy?I know that rajang may destroy him but I think raging brachy stood a decent chance since you much slay him while furious rajang can be captured

Submit

Pro Tip : Putting the brachy to sleep during his last raging phase cleans up the room of any slim .

Submit

So is its hp 28k or 28.120 million?

Submit

The scariest part of this monster is the reactor drop rate.

Submit

I see so many people having a hard time with this mf so I thought I had to step in.

I defeated this guy on my first try with 2 faints.

1) I used SnS as it's fast and has the ability to block. Weapon choice helps, but it's doable with slower weapons too.
2) Using a water or ice weapon is OBLIGATORY. They make that slime fall. When the slime falls, it's attacks no longer explode. Though the dropped slime will explode on the ground, be careful. I used Noble Ana Palas. (upgraded Velkhana SnS)
3) Dodge through the attacks as the wiki says, try not to dodge outside. And use your whole invulnerability window, stay lying on the ground if you must because he chains his attacks mostly.
4) Blast resistance is not obligatory but it helps.
5) Defense is not the main concern if you can dodge, I used Teostra B+ and had around 850 defense. Stock up on fire resistance though, as it's slime incinerates you on top of exploding.
6) You can't use traps in the last phase so try to use them early on. The damage windows they create can really shorten the fight.
7) Try to keep your HP full. An explosion can take around 90 HP. I got carted once because of that. Try to fit some Health Boost in your build.
8) Temporal Mantle really helps. Fireproof Mantle + and Immunity Mantle (+ if you can) are good choices too as they help with blasts.
9) Try the Coalescence skill. It grealy boosts your attack and elemental damage after recovering from Blastscourge. I had a Phoenix Jewel 3, even level 1 Coalescence helped a lot.
10) Stamina Thief is another great skill, especially for the last phase as tiring him out is much easier than clutch claw or mounting.
11) He's not always enraged in the last phase, try waiting and dodging a bit for him to calm down and slam his head to the walls. When dodging, try to get all his slime in a half of the area. Try to move to the other half of the are when it makes them explode and damages itself. Rinse and repeat. Spreading the slime all over will make it harder.
12) Slinger is a lifesaver. Try to get slinger ammo, it usually drops slinger bombs from clutch clawing. When aimed at the head, it's enough to make him flinch for a moment. And in the last phase, try to use the crystalbursts on the ground. They make him flinch at the head too. If not for the slinger bombs, I had failed.
13) STOCK UP ON POTIONS

Submit

this bastard has made me more frustrated than i ever have been playing this game hhhhh o l y m o l y.

Submit

Just trap spam him then it’s easy also you can always knock him into a wall twice. Once you get the hang of it he is very easy

Submit

This fight would absolutely be bearable if it wasn't for his floor slime taking up half your health. Sucks for lancers. Tip: tool specialist 2-3 and fireproof mantle. Slot in gobbler in the mantle and bring crafting mats for 12 max pots. You can also bring blast resist if you plan on staying under him like lancers do. This will make the fight bearable to farm.

Submit

at first i thought his hands were lava

Submit

Safi's Aquashot LBG is amazing in this fight for multiplayer

Sticky bombs will knock him to the ground often (esp at the start when threshold is still fresh). You can heal teammates with recovery ammo 2 (which happens often and can mean the difference between a clutch or cart). And despite all of that, you still have access to your own paralysis and sleep ammos. If knockdowns are becoming rarer in the 1st volcanic area, that's a good time to cheese the traps (and please correct me if im wrong but trap paralysis has a different threshold/timer than regular paralysis, and vice versa). Then in the last area, paralysis and sleep can continue to CC him. All the while, your main DPS option can knock him with several shots even as the threshold goes higher.

release 3 for two charges of sticky 3 before reload, and evade reload 2 is fast provided nothing scuffs you up on the 2nd evade (like those damnable ledges!)

Submit

This guy makes safi feel like an old guy on a ventilator

Submit

wait sooooooooooooooo remind me again why he exist NORMAL branchy already has an enraged state
yes it is true i play mhw thats how i know it duh if you ask me they should have made a poisonous branchy instead of this monster but they already used there last free title update so...

Submit

Hate the fight solo but not too bad in co op. Still think its design philosophy sucks.

Submit

is this event or i could fight him later just got ice borne

Submit

His element is blast, but the damage of blast is fire, heavy fire resistant gear is great, same for fire res mantle. Better to use elem meal L then take max potion, Blast resist won't help at all for explosions he detonate himself, like his special punches. Traps won't be place able last phase, best to spam him early on. Temporal mantle is great, theres many chances to wall bang him in this fight

Submit

Hmmmm, just did this big bastard, and while his armor shows in my smithy his weapons do not...Aggravating, to say at least

Submit

who do you think would win this guy or frost fang barioth?
give a thumbs up for raging brachydios and give a thumbs down for frost fang barioth
be honest and if you give a thumbs down then just cause you dont like it im gonna think it a vote

Submit

First of all: In my opinion he's easier solo (and that's noobs opinion).
Second: Last area is the easiest. The slime no longer deals blastcourge but instead deals damage like lava in volcanic region does. Even his supernova isn't anything that will one shot you when you have at least 150 HP.
Attack his legs, it's extremely easy to exhaust or ko him this way. It is also hard to mount him so plan your mounts carefully
In lava region set some traps on the lava geyser
And one tip for glaive users: it's very easy to exhaust or ko him with descending thurst hitting his legs and fists

Submit

“EXPLOSIONS!?”-you know exactly who said this

Submit

The question is, are his or safi weapons better?

Submit

why do you exist bro haha the og brachydios already has a rage mode haha

Submit

90% of the time (I didn't count the % part I am just wanna show how frequent it is) in the 3rd place where Raging Brachy goes which is in the lava area with the lava geyser that there would be 2 faints or more and my party would be down to 1 faint almost all the time in that area! And eventually someone dies in the last area sadly :( He is so difficult because not only that he is genuinely a challenge already but almost every time I fight with a random party theres always gonna be that someone who only has around 900 or 800 defense and thats why most of the time I failed the quest. Tips for Raging Brachy? well...
1. Bring ice/water elemental weapons
2. Have at least over 1000 defense! (But if your good at dodging then do whatever you want)
3. Every time you have blast courge roll about 6-7 times
4. bring cool drinks when your in the lava area
5. Flinch shot to wall for more damage and part break
6. In the last area he will close all the exist and you would fight him in that single area so before you fight if you have only little bit of healing or you have no cool drinks than go back to your camps to prepare.
7. Note that I don't really know about this but I think its true that in the last phase you can't use far caster to go back to camp you can only get carted.
8. For more info try checking the bottom comments. Ok thats all good luck :)

Up until the final phase, Raging Brachy isn't particularly different from normal Brachy, aside from a few things: slime falling off of attacked limbs (i.e., don't mash attack and prepare to roll at a moment's notice), its penchant for slime Shouryukens (which sometimes shoot fast-acting slime in a V shape), and its triple headbutt into tracking Shouryuken (DON'T roll towards Brachy for the final uppercut; either he'll follow your movement and nail you, or you'll get caught in the slime trail. Use lateral movement for the three headbutts, and run AWAY for the uppercut, Superman'ing if necessary). For the final phase, I highly recommend coming in with some sort of Earplug buffs (I personally use Shara Ishvalda's set + Mantles), as this will give you time to escape if Brachy does its detonation roar and you happen to be standing on explodo-lava. Since you no longer need to worry about slime exploding (aside from the roar), you can really just wail on him until he does his scream, escape/panic dive during the scream if you have Earplugs, and repeat. Of course, that detonation roar can easily wipe out an entire party of unaware randos, so it MIGHT be best to do this guy solo rather than with a PUG.

Submit

I failed so many times facing this mofo. Finally did it after 20ish hunts. If this monster was this hard, Dunno what it's like to face alatreon later...

Submit

Reminds me of that mh3u one

Submit

Roll to the side to dodge, forward works of you are near his legs and can get to his back. Hits hard but is clumsy, letting an attack pass, keep near enough to smack him and withdraw quickly/ go to his side or back again is good. It’s dangerous to trade hits w it. Only combo if he is staggered/ attacking an ally and not facing you. Best to smash his head from the side. Lots of slime in front. Prep an evasion mantle when he calms down, you can safely clutch him and flinch shot to a wall. Or use it defensively for his rage state. Prep good gear vs blast

Submit

I heard gold rathain and silver rath has 23k heath

'Raging Brachydios might be terrifying on the offense, but it doesnt have much health.' 28k health in solo is considered not much? That's more hp than MR Elder Dragons (not regarding Shara or Tempered).

Submit

ya know i failed to finish him off 4 times ina row due to people keep dying. But when i finally slayed him i got immortal reactor for the first time!!!

Submit

his final move in the final zone it was amazing as hell!(literally) like he punches the ground so many times that a bunch of slimes started coming out from the ground! I was so scared because I thought they would explode but it was just like fire. But they can explode on his command, for me he is harder then furious rajang since he has blastcourge .

Submit

This guy was the first time in this game where it felt like it was just.. unfair.

I realy gave up of this anoying uberboss...One hit kill blasts after 45 minutes of gameplay, is bull*****

Im not gonna get married. This dude can fvck me up well everyday

Submit

Solo killed him with shara/vaal set. With some decos my stats were max def, max blast resist, regen max, health max, vaal set bonus, stun proof, max fire res, max part breaker. Vit and tempo mantle. Legiana ls. A bit of advice for solo pro's is to prio def L at canteen and adamant pills. Also bring comb mats for max potions. I also solo run safi with same set.

Submit

Just make sure to build as much def as possible (neckalce on 4+ big def jewel = 7 points in def-boost) then go for explosion resist and make sure your health-boost is on top. damage is not that important on him. Every member of the team should have fireproof mantle and groul heal. fill everthing up after each phase und stun him as much as possible in 4th phase: easy hunting

Submit

How is the male armor not pictured yet???

Submit

Zero immortal reactors after 10-12 kills. Also side note since it's not listed, if you're having issues with removing the slime, use pods. Specifically the puddle pods or bomb/piercing pods. They'll instantly remove the slime on his hands and head. This will significantly reduce his damage output until he reapplies them from a safe distance.

Submit

Got four immortal reactors in one run yesterday. It's too bad luck like this doesn't last long.

Submit

I only fight this bloody thing with the insect glaive a its the only weapon I’ve managed to actually kill him with, god bless constant aerial attacks.

Submit

thanks for the all the info for raging brachy whoever did this page needs a salute

Submit

If you like fighting this guy, you're a cuck.

Submit

I've gone about a dozen aborted attempts so far and he's way harder than you'd think he would be. Everytime I knock off his slime (charge blade) I end up getting chunked in the process a second later, so you're getting punished even for doing the correct thing. Dozens of max potions down the drain too because regular pots are too slow.

Submit

much easier compared to F. Rajang

Submit

He’s so big that almost every attack has a MASSIVE AoE. For me thats the most difficult part. (Apart from the blastblight, but for that I just use the anti-blast charm)

Submit

If you reached the last area you've made it. Before he explodes the slime he always casts a ton of them all at once. Thats the moment you should search a save area. And the rest is just basic Monster Hunter.

Submit

What I like to do in the final area is to think of the area as having 3 sectors: One sector on the elevated area, and the other two on the sides where the entrances were. From experience, Raging Brachy alternates between a roar that spreads slime and the detonating roar. Knowing this, I try to keep it in one sector until it does the slime roar, then retreat to a different sector so I can avoid the puddle explosions from his second roar.

Submit

My expirience so far is one of annoyance at the normal phase, and a smooth road at the finale due my weapon choice. As a hammer, hitting its weak points without softening his legs is a horrid chore at best. And when you do clutch/wallslam him, you have to hope he doesnt follow up with anything that will knock you off, since it feels that his whole body becomes a hitbox anytime he attacks. And due the weapon slow recovery after a missed swing, you have to hope you can dodge any incoming dropping slime before it detonates. The finale is one of the occasions i dont faint, since the sliding slope helped my boost my damage a bit, and i dont have to worry bout the detonating slime,but rather the chip tick damage. Still getting its core is an annoyance due the long journey i have to take to solo it.

Submit

Boom bug cages instantly down him in the first area. If your soloing, use that.

Submit

i almost have full raging brachy armor. all i need is the large elder dragon gem

Submit

how to farm raging brachy?

Submit

Surprisingly, the parts before his last stand is the hardest part, especially without blast resist, his slime goes off way faster than normal, and it doesn't help how big he is so his hitbox is just giant. Bring vitality jewels and some blast res and know how to deal with the last phase and you should be ok.
