An elder dragon coated in water and able to freely control lightning. A unique organ allows it to pump electricity into the pools of water it creates, causing massive bursts of steam.In-game description
Namielle is one of the most beautiful monsters in Iceborne, and one of the most dangerous. This brand new elder dragon floods the ground with water and then electrifies it. It looks like something from the deep sea.
Out in the wild
Namielle lives in the Coral Highlands, and it is rarely seen. A strange light from the top of the Highlands is often the only sign that it is there. It can make, absorb and control water, and even uses the water to recharge. In the Guiding Lands it appears in the Coral Region.
Where you meet it
It is part of the Master Rank story. You hunt it in the Coral Highlands in the assignment A Light From The Abyss, after Blackveil Vaal Hazak. Optional quests and a tempered version follow.
How the fight goes
Namielle sprays water and leaves puddles all over the arena. Then it charges up and sends electricity through the water, setting off bursts of steam. Its biggest attack is a leap and slam that sets off every puddle at once. After that it is drained and much easier to hurt with raw damage.
Hunter’s tips
- Fire is its main weakness, with dragon behind it. Poison, sleep and paralysis all work well.
- It inflicts waterblight and thunderblight, so bring Nulberries or Blight Resistance.
- Keep track of the puddles and get out of them when it charges.
- Traps do nothing, so save the inventory space for healing items.
