The leviathan that reigns supreme over the Scarlet Forest's ecosystem. Its protective veil can also generate a wave to keep foes at bay.In-game description
Uth Duna rules the Scarlet Forest. It’s a huge leviathan that wears water like armour, and it’s at its most dangerous in the rain.
Out in the wild
It lives in the Scarlet Forest and shows up most during the Downpour, the forest’s stormy season. Its secretions mix with water into a veil that covers its body. The veil soaks up blows and adds weight, and Uth Duna uses that weight to slam down and send out a wave that washes threats away.
It loses its turf war to Arkveld.
Where you meet it
It’s the Chapter 1 finale, “Beyond the Deluge”, and that fight is a repel, the first one in the game. You meet it again in High Rank in Chapter 5, “A World Turned Upside Down”, as one of the apex predators driven wild. New to the series with Wilds. Tempered and Arch-Tempered versions came later.
How the fight goes
Phase one is about the veil. While it’s up, your damage numbers show blue and most of your hits are soaked up. Orange numbers mean you’re hitting flesh. Break the veil completely and Uth Duna topples over. After that it’s lighter, faster and angrier, and it fights quite differently. It can also grow the veil back with a roar or a spin that throws nearby hunters away, so back off when you see the wind-up.
Hunter’s tips
- Stay at its sides. Belly flops and tail slams push their waves mostly forward.
- Bring Nulberries for waterblight. Flash Pods and traps work, but Sonic Bombs do nothing.
- A Luring Pod or dropped rubble pulls it out of the water. Head, forelegs and tail can be broken, but the tail can’t be cut off.
