Monster Hunter World - Rotten Vale Large Monster Battle

Video showing part my first expedition to the Rotten Vale, where I encounter a Radobaan for the first time. He looks scarier than he is.

That moment when you learn Odagaron's moveset so precisely that you even surprise yourself with the last-second dodges... That's the moment I fell in love with the game

[@DrKurapikaIsDrowning]

The moment I fell in love with it was when I first started swinging true charges with my great sword and feeling like HIMOTHY 😎😎😎 But fr the shear beauty of the Forest, Highlands and desolation of the Wastes and Vale are what REALLY hooked me, asides from the awesome monster designs ofc

[@talion4033]

Fighting an Odogarron with this in the background with my Dual Blades makes me so hyped

[@JamesTheTurnbull]

Talion Blacktear I love Odo so much. Its like a bad ass wolf.

[@DaveyPls]

The monster's quite dodgy, I love him

[@talion4033]

Now I’m highly tier, I despise that thing XD He does so much damage

[@louisstout9952]

Odogarron is my current favorite monster just because of how ruthless he is with his attacks and how he combos attacks. I miss zinogre now...

[@Czzor]

I know right. Fast pace action the entire hunt. He reminds me of my number one favourite monster, Rajang. (:

[@VisionoftheChief]

Odogaron was my mentor of this area, he taught me speed and patience.

[@soulcash]

In a sense he was mine too. It was his speed later when he gets enraged, that I used to try to sorta perfect my LS deflection of monster attacks on. Get his pattern down as he's about to tear down the world and I'd say you're pretty much good for the rest. Deflection and dodging attacks with LS that is, lol.

[@Adirbal]

@@soulcash He was the opposite to me, odogaron was just cannon fodder for my HBG

[@floko95]

As a double dagguer user, he just trained me to spam my left click since almost every part of him is vulnerable ^^

[@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen]

Honestly, Fighting Odogaron with my "Barbarian" character (aka only leg and waist armor) made me believe he was too fast for me to fight with the Greatsword. But as I fought him some more, I learned one trick. Anticipate what his next move is and then make sure my attack connects right where he's going to be. After learning that, I become deadly against him. Dodging and moving when needed and making sure that when I DO attack, I made sure I was 100% in making the hit.

[@crow.p828]

I used a gunlance

[@stemc1000]

Well i didnt expect a theme as complicated and nauanced as this. It really gets the blood pumping!

[@TheFire2cold]

stemc1000 it’s so sinister! Creeps me out being in the Rotten Vale

[@smallestgoober9399]

4 years later and this still slaps. It's been 4 years...

[@DrKurapikaIsDrowning]

Wow…just…wow…four years😢

[@hyperbison]

I'm like "damn this music is great, wait he is running! Get back here and play that awesome music some more! "

[@IBroLLyISePhIrOtH]

indeed

[@liviekumori]

1:28 damn, this soundtrack is so hype.

[@ClareAmel]

I forgot why this used to be my favorite theme in the game and was confused listening until the buildup at 1:27 started, then it all started flooding back

[@ChillyReaper]

After fighting this monster when I heard this music, I was like "Okay, I really need to listen to the soundtrack because this is amazing!"

[@TheIceLurker]

Capcom knew we needed a song this hype to get over the Odogaron wall.

[@ReksNuadiah]

Wall? He's fast, but keeps his attacks relatively simple. You miiiight have to switch to a weapon that can respond just as quickly, but it's not necessary after learning him a bit. I guess I can see how newer players might get caught up, though - there's nothing like him in the game quite up to his point, except maybe Kadachi (who telegraphs his attacks more.)

[@narius_jaden215]

I mean of course it's going to be newer players that feel that way xD.

[@jac1207]

hell, you can stick with whatever weapon you're maining at the moment, but if it's slow, you have to really not be greedy or he will just ravage you and his bleed status + the miasma hp chip will pretty much make the fight a nightmare because not only are you panicking at that point, but you still have to deal with a monster that's fast and can close a lot of distance.

[@lordolinguine7235]

Only reason I struggled with odo was because of bleed, had no idea you could eat to get rid of it

[@madpinoy5683]

Ah. Rotten Vale. Where framerates go to die.

[@CapnShades]

Did something change in the last 2 years? My framerate tanks in Ancient Forest and Coral Highlands but I haven't noticed anything here.

[@toxicalyss]

@@CapnShades I feel that he is correct thats where all the framerates went. Its the smoothest area in my playthroughs with a much inferior machine two years back.

[@reydesonic]

This battle theme is so good. And ironically it isn't even that explosive like something like say, Elder Dragons. This theme has a small hint of light melodies within the intense ones. Overall it makes for a fantastic yet beautiful composition. When you realize what the Rotten Vale is, it kinda fits into place as to why it can sound a bit melancholic.

[@dinorex3464]

Yup. A massive monster cemetery. The theme fits it perfectly.

[@IaconDawnshire]

Watching this makes me want to hunt but I have work >

[@slenderhatesmillennials195]

I hate that there's literally only 2 monsters here that you can actually hear the theme to.

[@genericbleach-9288]

Lust for Hated and Destruction - What about girros?

[@theend7339]

Generic Bleach i fought him a while ago and i didnt hear ANY music :/

[@slenderhatesmillennials195]

Yes, moderate monsters like Great Jagras, Great Girros, Kulu-Ya-Ku, Tzitzi-Ya-Ku and Dodogama have less intense versions of the base battle themes of the areas they specifically inhabit.

[@slenderhatesmillennials195]

Agreed, Nerscylla would be perfect.

[@AbyssalLagaiacrusWithAnExtraA]

Khezu Comfirmed

[@Miluqu]

Damn, the horns are amazing in this theme!

[@thadeuschadwick283]

HOLY CRAP! this got me an adrenaline rush! I just got down to the RV and this thing scared the crap out of me, I’ll come prepared next time :/

[@PhoenixUnity07]

Radobaan: I HEAR SOMETHING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP IMA GO TAKE A LOOK! *spin dashes over* AH MAN WOULDN'T IT SUCK IF YOU JUST ACCIDENTALLY HIT ME? LOL

[@shenloken2]

Hell hath no fury like a draconic hellhound

[@chadderbug7587]

Was never too big of a fan of this theme along with Wildspire waste, but I surely do not hate them. They're still amazing.

[@MystoRobot]

The best song in the game, not debatable!

[@yurei4414]

We had the chance to fight Gravios and Shogun Ceanataur here... The battle theme fits them so perfectly... I'm just sad...

[@qhailashnikov]

The first time I encountered Radobaan, I thought it was like Anjanath that gives me so much problems like I kept failing and failing but turns out.. I was wrong, I was able to dodge most of it's attacks and never get fainted once. He's not as tough as I expected

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

Clifford is doing gymnastics again.

[@user-jk5yh8un4b]

1:35 At this moment, I feel like I'm a twin blade Barian rin....

[@Bllackwatch]

looks like its basically an uragaan covered in bones.

[@Nomadic_Gaming]

Blackwatch thats basically what radobaan is hes like a cousin species that adapted to thrive in the vale

[@TwiIightWyvern]

He has some new variations on attacks too. Including BEYBLADE MODE.

[@Kanuk97]

Yea but much weaker, they made uragaan even more OP in this game

[@TheFire2cold]

BigMansCheez Yeah they fan service most of the old monsters. Except Barroth, they made that bitch a really weak early game monster for the beginners.

[@Talla50k]

Well first form Barroth was basically unkillable, I can see why.

[@erickeduardozavalagarza7182]

One of the best ost that I ever listened...

[@Weda_Bretajune]

This is so damn good

[@TrewDomko]

that beginning part is amazing

[@absouler5997]

How bout MHW Add a fricken undead spider, I know there’s already one but c’mon either create something completely scary and made of bones or that spider b**** from MH4U. Because c’mon in the other maps you got apex, invaders, subspecies oh my. But here just really? Only 2 monsters here are worth fighting in the theme being rabodaan and Clifford the big red dog. And if gyceprous (I didn’t spell it correctly) comes back in the rotten vale and this theme plays then truly we got a god dang rotten vale. Vaal is actually pretty scary plus his theme is cool as hell.

[@shadytriceratops]

Monster Hunter Online actually has this pretty cool monster called Baelidae that I think would fit perfectly here

[@mr.zombiePG3D]

For some reason this music sounds so familiar to another game I played a long time ago but I cant remember...

[@mcchungusamungus8011]

ladies and gentlemen, this is where dragons go to die.

[@toxicalyss]

Rotten vale is the best swamp biome in the game and Vaal is his ruler.

[@gothicblack5876]

[@SurveyingBTS]

I'm not throwing in hate your way, but you use the bow too passively for my tastes. With stamina recovery up from either a Hunting Horn user or the Adrenaline skill, the bow can be used as a DPS weapon with a flurry of arrows, the dodge slide, and the dodge melee attack. If done right, it's possibly one of the coolest styles, and it can apply status effects on the monsters rather quickly. Experimentation and patience is important with any weapon, and learning styles like the one detailed above can really boost your experience in fighting monsters like the Odogaron or the Rathalos. Plus, the dodge melee attack, done with patience and spacing in mind of course, allows the bow user the ability to mount more frequently and can help recover stamina at a higher rate whilst still dealing damage.

[@TheCrimsonFacker]

I want to add a tip in the case this player didnt know. The dragon piecer can also be charged. You either charge it up to max and then do the dragon piecer or you shoot R2 3 times. Each time the charge level goes higher so after the 3th shot is when you use dragon piecer. It is also good to hit him with DP from head to tail or the other way to get the most out of your DP. But judging from the video, the player does try it often.

[@buddyjesus3123]

love the game but sadly all weapons just suck ass compared to twin blades :(

I hope your joking, dual blades mains sometimes man...
