A gigantic brute wyvern that eats the bones of carcasses found in the Rotten Vale, using some of it as armor. It also rolls into a ball as a form of attack and transportation.In-game description

Radobaan is a walking bone pile that turns into a wrecking ball. It eats the bones of dead monsters, glues some of them to its body as armor, then curls up and rolls straight at you. In World it is the first big wall you hit in the Rotten Vale, and it comes back in Iceborne’s Master Rank.

Out in the wild

This brute wyvern lives in the Rotten Vale, where there’s never a shortage of carcasses. When its armor gets knocked off, it digs through piles of bones to coat itself again. Rolling isn’t only an attack for Radobaan. It’s also how it gets around. It even has a sleep trick: it releases a sleeping gas from its underside to knock out anything nearby.

Where you meet it

You meet it in the 4-star Low Rank assignment Radobaan Roadblock, soon after you first enter the Rotten Vale. It returns as a High Rank target and again in Iceborne’s Master Rank.

How the fight goes

The rolls are the star of the show and they hit hard. In between, it headbutts, slams its jaw into the ground and swings its tail. The bone armor softens your hits, so the fight is really about stripping that armor. Hit it while it’s rolling and you can throw it off balance and send it to the ground.

Hunter’s tips

  • Big, heavy hits knock off bones fast. Break its bone armor before anything else.
  • When it topples, mine its body for bones while you have the chance.
  • Dragon is your best element, and Ice works too. Blast is its biggest status weakness.
  • It roars and shakes the ground, so Earplugs and Tremor Resistance make it easier to stay on the attack.
