Learn how to capture the Barroth in Monster Hunter: World. This guide covers strategy, weaknesses, and tips for the 'Landing the Landslide Wyvern' quest.
Stats / Weaknesses:
- Objective: Capture a Barroth
- Reward Money: 3600z
- Time Limit: 50 min.
- Conditions: HR 3 or higher
- Failure Conditions: Time Expires / Faint 3 Times / Barroth is slain
- Other Monsters: Apceros, Kestodon, Gajau, Noios
Phases:
- Preparation: Ensure you've completed the 'Snatch the Snatcher' quest to unlock this one. Aim to get your Scoutfly Level to three before you find the Barroth.
- Engagement: Fight the Barroth, focusing on inflicting damage. It's more durable than previous monsters you might have faced.
- Fleeing: The Barroth will eventually flee towards its lair. A skull icon will appear on your mini-map indicating its location.
- Trapping: The Barroth's lair is underwater and unsuitable for traps. You have two options: either intercept it on its path to the lair and set a trap, or lure it out of its lair. To lure it out, you can provoke it while it's sleeping, then retreat to an area where you can place a trap.
- Capture: Once the Barroth is in your trap, use tranq bombs to capture it and complete the quest.
Tips
- Be aware of the Jyuratodus in the swamp area, as it might attack a weakened Barroth, complicating the capture.
- Since the Barroth's lair is underwater, you cannot place traps directly inside it. Plan your trap placement carefully either on its path or by luring it out.
- After capturing the Barroth, return to town and speak with the Smart Biologist for 600 Research Points. Further requests from him will require advancing the main story.
