Master the Savage Deviljho in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Learn its attack patterns, weaknesses, breakable parts, and effective strategies to hunt this Brute Wyvern.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Deviljho is a nomadic, savage Brute Wyvern that roams in search of food.
  2. 2
    It will eat anything, including its own severed tail and carcasses of other monsters.
  3. 3
    When enraged, Deviljho's body swells and turns red, granting it dragonbreath and increased aggression.
  4. 4
    Deviljho is a common guest monster in High Rank and G Rank quests and can invade ongoing quests, even those hunting another Deviljho.
  5. 5
    Bring a weapon like a Lance to reach its soft belly, or target its legs. The safest zone is under its belly, except during its stomp attack.
  6. 6
    When enraged, be cautious of its front-facing attacks, including dragonbreath.
  7. 7
    Deviljho drools quickly when exhausted, but this does not indicate low health. Its saliva is corrosive and will hurt you.
  8. 8
    Be prepared to cure blights like Iceblight and Fireblight from Rock Fling with Nulberries.
  9. 9
    Use Dung Bombs or have teammates flinch Deviljho to escape its Jump Bite pin.
  10. 10
    Cure Defense Down from Forward Bite with Nulberries.
  11. 11
    Block or roll to evade the Tail Whip; it becomes more manageable after the tail is severed.
  12. 12
    For the 360 Spin, run away when Deviljho prepares it, or use Guard+1/+2 or Evasion+1.
  13. 13
    Run down Deviljho's body towards its tail or head to dodge Hipcheck, or run away if far enough.
  14. 14
    Run towards Deviljho's legs to avoid its Dragonbreath during rage mode.
  15. 15
    Break Deviljho's jaw twice for cosmetic changes.
  16. 16
    The tail can be severed and carved twice.
  17. 17
    Exploit its weakness to sleep-bombing by using Drugged Meat to put it to sleep, then setting up Barrel Bombs for a guaranteed face break.
  18. 18
    Each meat (Tinged Meat, Poisoned Meat, Drugged Meat) works once; bring one of each. Tinged and Drugged Meats offer the largest damage windows.
Tips
  • Always bring Dung Bombs due to Deviljho's constant threat and potential to invade quests.
  • Weapons like Lance are good for reaching Deviljho's weak belly.
  • When Deviljho is enraged, stay out of its front to avoid its aggressive attacks and dragonbreath.
  • Deviljho's drool inflicts Defense Down, so cure it with Nulberries.
  • Use Nulberries to cure blights inflicted by Rock Fling.
  • Escape a Jump Bite by using a Dung Bomb or having teammates flinch Deviljho.
  • Evasion+1 or Guard+1/+2 can help manage the 360 Spin attack.
  • Run towards Deviljho's legs to avoid Dragonbreath.
  • Sleep-bombing with Drugged Meat and Barrel Bombs is an effective strategy for breaking its jaw.
  • Bring one of each tainted meat (Tinged, Poisoned, Drugged) for varied status effects.
