A mutated Deviljho variant, driven mad by its overpowering hunger. It will attempt to feed on all it sees.In-game description
Savage Deviljho is hunger with legs. Iceborne’s Master Rank swaps the regular Deviljho for this mutated version, and it is even angrier and even harder to feed.
Out in the wild
It has no real home. You can find it in the Ancient Forest, Wildspire Waste, Coral Highlands, Rotten Vale, Elder’s Recess and Hoarfrost Reach, and from level 5 it roams the Guiding Lands too. It grabs smaller wyverns in its jaws and smashes them around like clubs. If a monster dies near it, it starts eating the body right there, hunters or not.
Where you meet it
Its main hunt is the Master Rank 5-star optional quest The Tyrant’s Banquet in the Wildspire Waste, and it also shows up in several event quests. A tempered Savage Deviljho appears in the Guiding Lands.
How the fight goes
It is all jaws. Bites and jaw slams come one after another, and those bites can leave you with Defense Down. It also covers the ground in dragon breath, and once enraged it uses that breath more often.
Hunter’s tips
- Thunder and dragon are its best elements, and it is very weak to poison, sleep and paralysis.
- Flash Pods work on it. Use one to stop it when things get out of hand, then reposition.
- Blight Resistance helps against dragonblight, and Earplugs save you from its roar.
- Check where you hunt it. It travels everywhere, so pack Hot Drinks or Cool Drinks for whatever the locale throws at you.
