Quest Overview
- Quest Name: The Claws Are Out
- Quest Type: Event (High Rank ★6)
- Location: Ruins of Wyveria
- Objective: Hunt a Tempered Guardian Ebony Odogaron
- Time Limit: 50 minutes
- Failure Conditions: Faint 3 times or run out of time
- Rewards (Zenny): 21,600
The target here is no ordinary Odogaron. The Guardian Ebony variant is both stronger and faster, making it a true test of your reflexes.
Preparing for the Hunt
Guardian Ebony Odogaron is known for its speed and relentless aggression. To increase your chances of success, keep the following in mind:
Weaknesses
- Elemental Weakness: Water (most effective against the head)
- Ailment Weakness: Paralysis (a strong way to create openings)
Weapon Choice
Agile weapons—like Dual Blades, Insect Glaive, or Sword & Shield—shine in this matchup, as they allow you to keep pace with Odogaron’s darting strikes. However, any Water-element weapon is valuable here if you prefer heavier options.
Hunt Strategy
- Target Zones: Prioritize the head for elemental damage, and the forelegs for reliable break opportunities.
- Control Options: Use traps, Slinger ammo, and Offset Attacks to slow down the monster’s movements. Every moment you immobilize it is a chance to pile on damage.
- Sustain: Bring healing items and stamina boosters—this is a long and punishing fight if you’re not prepared.
Monster Habitat
In the Ruins of Wyveria, the Guardian Ebony Odogaron typically begins in Area 13. Throughout the hunt, it may roam to Areas 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10, before retreating to Area 7 to rest. Use this pathing to your advantage when setting traps or intercepting it mid-fight.
