Large brute wyverns that feed on ore, using their mighty jaws to crush solid rock to powder. They've been known to confront Lavasioths over territory disputes.In-game description
Uragaan is a walking boulder with a chin like a sledgehammer. In World and Iceborne it rolls, slams and leaves little bombs all over the floor of the Elder’s Recess.
Out in the wild
Uragaan lives in the Elder’s Recess and eats ore, grinding solid rock to dust with its huge jaw. Its body carries small explosive rocks, which it sheds during a fight. It is not friendly with the other locals, and it has been seen fighting Lavasioth over territory.
Where you meet it
Uragaan is a High Rank monster and has no Low Rank version. It lives in the Elder’s Recess, so you can run into it once you reach that locale in High Rank, and its first hunt is the 7-star quest Ore-Eating Occupier. It is also a quest target in Master Rank in Iceborne.
How the fight goes
Uragaan is all weight. It slams its chin into the ground, sometimes several times in a row, and the shockwave knocks you off balance. It curls up and rolls across the area, scattering explosive rocks that act like mines. It can also release a cloud of gas from its underside that puts you to sleep. Its armor is thick everywhere except a few spots, so careless swings mean a lot of bounces.
Hunter’s tips
- Water is its biggest weakness, with Ice and Dragon behind it.
- Aim for the head and the belly. Those are the weak spots. Break the head and cut the tail.
- Tremor Resistance keeps you on your feet during the chin slams, and Fire Resistance helps against the exploding rocks.
- Poison and stun work very well, so blunt weapons have a good day here. Keep an eye on the floor and get away from its bombs before they go off.
