The most up-to-date guide on interrupting behemoths in Dauntless.
This video took a good portion of around 5 days to complete, so please show your support! c:
Interrupting every behemoth with every weapon was a pretty fun project. Perhaps I shall work on getting ALL of the specific interrupts with every weapon, but I'm alright for now.

I have finally begun to work on the update to this guide! The plan currently is to split up the guide into separate videos to be able to maintain my content schedule, as well as being able to make each part as in depth as I possibly can. You can find the playlist for the update to this guide here: kzbin.info/aero/PLmV68CJWgkyoXAOPdj52I0rd2Q_S8VNkA

[@darkwubshd4961]

Yo, i know this video didnt catch a lot of attention, but you were the ONE person who has updated the interrupts within the LAST YEAR. Thank you, This is the EXACT video i needed, Im gonna be referencing this video when i start working on my slayer levels, because i can go through the video, find the behemoth im fighting, and refresh myself on its staggerable attacks

[@darkwubshd4961]

Also, INCREDIBLE stuff on no dislikes, People are normally critical to people they dont know, that just proves that the people that did see your video appreciate the guide as well

[@TheMrTrails]

This video has actually gotten quite a bit of traffic lately, so I feel it's worth adding another comment at the top here: Sword gameplay has completely changed since this video was released. I'm considering remaking this guide relatively soon covering the new sword gameplay. Sword light attacks can no longer interrupt. The attacks that can interrupt are the heavy attacks, including bladesurge, crescent strike finisher, and resounding echo when coupled with the charged swordfocus mod. Avenging Overdrive and Ardent cyclone are still the same. The two best interrupt methods for it now are to face away from the behemoth, and let your sword swing back around and catch it with the end of the hitbox. That and to jump, while moving toward the behemoth and a bit to the left, while performing the heavy attack. If I revisit this guide, expect it to be even more in depth than this one

[@gudiii1]

i use repeaters and i was able to interrupt with a mine the dmg type interrupt quite a few times

[@TheMrTrails]

That’s covered in the video

[@thehawkian]

Great guide, thank you! I just started playing and am barely getting the hang of boops after realizing how crucial they are (Winterhorn Skraev has been embarrassing me). I would love an update with the latest info!

[@alfsigma4115]

Thrax interrupts with the port animation too, which is often the one that can be better timed and widely forgoten did only see the landing in the video But thanks for all the epic guides they sure help a ton of players

[@purcelash1]

please remake it

[@fuk0u_]

As an axe main, this video really helps especially whenever I do solo hunts. I can tell alotta work was went to this video and I really appreciate all the info and the effort put into researching for this as well. I learned alot, many thanks sir! :)

[@riicky83]

A quick mention for the Skarn, when you boop its standing attack, don't stand behind it as it can land on you and damage you.

[@carpasta4608]

God I wish I knew this sooner. I would always die because I thought I was safe

[@TheMrTrails]

Interrupts added after the production of the video: Riftstalker: During enrage, the violent spinning attack can now be interrupted. This one is very difficult to not trade on, for everything but the sword's Avenging Overdrive parry.

[@TheMrMarkx]

updated + this video is a bible & should be pin to the offi dauntless discord if not already !

[@SomeRandomFox1]

In the vid you forgot that you could hit back the stormclaw lightning orb to boop it. Some people say it’s not a boop but it activates overpower soo it is. :D

[@TheMrTrails]

A boop is only an interrupt. Not something that causes an overpower state. A stagger is not a boop, a shock proc is not a boop. Just an interrupt, as it’s better to have a one syllable word than a three syllable word to describe what you’re talking about

[@SomeRandomFox1]

How is hitting back an orb a stagger? I get that it doesn’t have the red lines but quillshot enraged doesn’t have them as well

[@SomeRandomFox1]

Ohhh I get what you said

[@deividasnamajunas2058]

One of the best tutorial videos i have ever seen. Not only at a specific game, but overall. Definetly earned a like.

[@PlayBlitz]

My guy you are severely underrated please don't let ANYBODY say that you're work here is worthless.😊 And thanks for the video👍 and for all the time you put into it

[@RaisinSlayer]

Thank You for this video! I just started last week and I really don't understand how I can interrupt using some weapons (Warpike). this video helped me a lot! I was avoiding the interrupt bounties, now they're the easiest bounties to do! Thank again!

[@knallfrosch8466]

Thank you for your service!

[@goreobsessed2308]

Thank you I play with 2 different friends at different times of the week so I'm ranking up 3 different weapons so this guide has helpedw out alot

[@leandromfe]

Amazing video! Thanks for it.

[@deadhunk4505]

idk about this thing coz i m new to the game so this video just came on screen but i subed u n liked it coz of the hrs and work in editing u put in man respect to u u r really osm and tnx to u it will make my game easy for sure.

[@domainmusicandgaming]

I needed this Thank you. Elevated my game so much

[@jeremy_3977]

Hammer main here, thanks for updating. I thought only evasive blast interrupted still. Gotta try the rest out now. Also I started as a CB main but left them because they didn't interrupt when I first started playing.

[@AwesomegummyDK]

Dude finally I’ve been searching for this

[@henriqueamericano1762]

that was exactly what i was looking for! TKS!

[@zombislayerx8361]

Ty just everything I needed👌👌

[@hm0o0des]

super helpful much love

[@touluevang3471]

Nicely done and put :) I hope this help players who need it because I'm TIRED of having to be the booper lol.

[@RainChowmein]

why the heck did i not know you had a youtube channel xD nice vid doode!! i loved it!

[@IDAXITY123]

Thx man it really helped me especialy in the heroic escalation

[@karinaspanks]

Wow this is really helpful thanks😊

[@juanquan2667]

I think learning how to dodge and interrupt is how you get better at the game

[@emiliomarbanjr]

Great great great tutorial my man.

[@lonejohnwolf]

I would definitely say that there's a split interrupt category, where you have to hit the head specifically on a few behemoths. I've never managed to get an interrupt on an embermane any time I've ever hit it that wasn't directly on the head for example.

[@genguonetrik2739]

Good help, thank you

[@zankomag8322]

I like your video! You spent a lot of time on this

[@HoloTheDrunk]

This single video has transformed me from an axe player to an everything player

[@lenartberdnik2153]

I really like the video keep it up

[@roynormanolaviaga9589]

Epic guide. Got my subs and like

[@carlself3930]

Great video....thanks for explaining all the techniques. Now, where did I put my war pike....?

[@genixg7488]

Thank u so much this help me a lot to learn how to use other weapons

[@denoicius1350]

Just to help new players with storm claw interrupts, after the 5th fence "pole" is placed is when the interrupt phase will happen.

[@pareeslakhman4161]

A lot of effort is put into these videos, you can tell

[@vesperschake6241]

Great video. Could you do one on sending back shock balls? Stormclaw gives me some trouble when using axe.

[@profitknives]

i have so much to say,but ill try and keep it condensed,this video was fucking amazing,i was super confused on how in certain situations they would be staggered via the lightest hit,and in others i could use just about everything in my kit and it would stay up and complete its attack,I'll be sure to come back when i experiment with other weapons,thanks so much man♡

[@CodyHoard253]

Excellent video as always! Keep up the great work bro

[@Georgekendall140]

As a chainblade main the dodge light is helpful, however when fighting urksa it often sends you above the map, which is funny but not helpful

[@queenshadowmare2668]

Didn't even know Quillshot had a interrupt. I just dodge the quills or tank them. But when I do escalations alone is use Kosha's Lantern hold ability to warp out of the one shot and do the interrupt. Doing that will give me alot of free damage because the the behemoth is lock in an animation and then gets stunned.

[@freaky3418]

dude i swear ive heard you in the dauntless discord server, awesome content btw 👌

[@malachishaner690]

Reckless leap interrupts with a Spear feel so good to land, but tricky sometimes

[@wojtek5977]

shrike fly's toward me I'M BOUT TO BOOP THIS MANS WHOLE CAREER!!!!

[@franky_saint]

Thank GOD! A video NOT made before the new hub update(s) lol Anyways, I wanted to add that Repeaters are really only good for one thing: Attack Speed Support (Which is why it is so ASS at booping)

[@Jiangcool9]

This video has helped me so much. I keep checking back whenever I interact with new behemoths. Hope for a part 2 with some mission behemoth like helion soon!

[@eeFiroK]

this video should play before every behe INGAME :D thanks

[@sunbear_413]

This video is perfect, thank you!

[@triplemproductions2350]

I went to max level without realizing chainblades light attacks could interrupt ;-; thank you very much for this video bro

[@dbIdARiUsIdb]

for the sword u can just hold right klick if you have 3 charges to interrupt a behemoth

[@orion1644]

Maybe I suck but I tend to miss nayzaga with axe horizantal attacks because of his low head hit box while sliding so for me a well timed vertical attack works better (or grim onslaught for the safe interrupt)

[@fracturedicicle7903]

Sick intro m8 (Ik this comment is late like most of my yt comments)

[@ayairduarte4658]

As a war pike main it's safe for me to say that its super easy to get boops with it.

[@jds7665]

skraev also stayes down longer if u boop him when he swoopes down instead of when he has the damage threshhold right before. i remeber my fist time booping pangar too and then i got addicted to booping him

[@rebornshan2673]

2:48 be it Pangar, Skraev or Skarn, behemoths that take a long time to engage on attack that can be interrupted but mostly, I see a lot of players playing the ax, throwing their weapons even before the behemoths attack. sometimes it makes me laugh or cry😅

[@jackiezhou8847]

damn trails damn I didn't know you were a youtuber.

[@megapeebs2631]

Interrupting by throwing the axe is so satisfying

[@firavun8943]

You have the best dauntless guides ive seen so far. As a newbie i appreciate

[@SmokingSpoon]

I still think weighted strikes have their uses when supporting a random and chaotic fight. Especially for chain blades.

[@jw_archstar3851]

He will proceed to turn you into a crayon That killed me lmao

[@joaodiniz3481]

The old sword had better looking attack animations

[@cardmaster8772]

Hell no

[@jayyneverforget3047]

You don't mention chronovore. But great video tho man keep it tup

[@MoistPocket]

every time i interupt the riftstalker, i'm always trading blows with it. same with a few others

[@ZeroFormLak]

As a very old repeater player that had to solo hunt before hunting grounds came (went out for a long time only to find i can actually play with people now). Playing repeaters early is like a very painful sour experience, is it good? Not at all, is it rewarding? depends on if you have game knowledge which i didnt have. But nothing beats putting a ticking mine perfectly planted to the Skraev dive and shoot that guy wings off. Overrall now i see how many ways to bopp there were, may see the new updated guides.

[@hoshikun6605]

Rezakiri should have Unstable attacks :)

[@drakotaz7729]

On war pike u can interrupt with its charge

[@oswurth8774]

When you know how to play... this game is just so goddamn satisfying

[@MegarionZ]

Why is the concussive salvo not used that much? I only use that to interrupt with hammers 🤔

[@pr0digyg4ming95]

Hey man. Say for example I was new to the game, what weapon would you recommend? I'm used to use strikers and got them to level 11, but I was too weak to complete any of my quests. I reset my progress and started again with a sword. (I know I shouldn't have reset progress but I felt like I rushed and missed some bits.) Now I use sword and have it lvl 11, but sometimes I wonder if I should've picked a different weapon. So to reiterate, what weapon do you recommend because I am considering switching to something else.

[@RyanOlsen]

Try them all and see what you like to use the best. There is no right weapon, just what works the best for you. My favorite is chain blades, so I use them most of the time. I have only been using other weapons to level up on the slayer's path for the perks. I like some of the other weapons ok, but just keep coming back to my favorite.

[@BowserStrange]

Umbral or Ember legendary weapons for repeaters?

[@shawnosullivan6788]

man I miss old sword

[@casicyber9842]

i'm curious whats up with the sword's stance

[@rurounijay7100]

How do i get that parry style for the sword? Not only is it convenient but it looks badass and i would play it nonstop

[@TheMrTrails]

It is a sword special, which you can purchase from Lady Luck through the completion of Normal Trials

[@rurounijay7100]

@@TheMrTrails thank you so much man! The guide was helpful even if some things are no longer the same.

[@sun-sk7rr]

Technoblade, is that you?

[@ConfusedRaccoon]

Stormclaw can be booped by reflecting its lightning ball back at it.

[@TheMrTrails]

This is not a boop. A boop is only what is classified as an interrupt. A shock ball from storm claw is an instant shock proc mechanic, not a boop

[@banrtv9446]

yeah thats why the chain blades are the best. Easy interrupt

[@connorhibberd221]

As a strikers player, i actually interrupt pangar in a different way, doesnt trade either

[@sergiobejaranoolivera1396]

I have a question. Does breacking a part of the monster and leaving him in the floor for a short time count to activate overpowered? Example: you broke rezakiri's tail and now he will be in the floor for a short time. Another example: you interrupt an embermane and breack the horn or the legs or whatever, causing him to stay in the floor. Does that count to activate overpowered?

[@TheMrTrails]

Part breaks, staggers, interrupts, and shock procs all count for overpower states.

[@sergiobejaranoolivera1396]

Thanks!

[@Ceimash]

But can molten edict interrupt with its hammer blast?

[@brianjohnson1300]

If anyone can find the Agarus interrupt I’m sure it’s you Trevor. They have an achievement for it unless it’s just a future placeholder.

[@TheMrTrails]

It is just a bug that it’s there, there may potentially be an interrupt in the future, but the fight as it is now doesnt have one

[@brianjohnson1300]

TheMrTrails not like it needs to be made easier. Kill shroom patch, vent, CB until dead. They should double its HP or make it actually try and throw you off when mounted.

[@Gyr0nium]

@@TheMrTrails Aether charged vine breaks maybe?

[@malzahar2745]

I use the CB and the only time i can interrupt is when i have WS cell on +6

perfect booping guide

[@scorpo_3322]

how do your sword attacks look diffrent

[@jenfiles89]

Hello. Is this still viable for the current version, 1.6.2?

[@Toka267]

Sword light attacks can't interrupt anymore and the warpike charging attack can perform interrupts. Not sure if there was any changes besides those ones.

[@Sweeta_vi]

I thought our fav is Rezakiri😂

[@dnddude9652]

What about the Enraged Valomyr Interrupt?

[@TheMrTrails]

That wasn’t introduced yet at the time of this video, only the aethercharged one

[@banrtv9446]

Yo, do you know why I can only solo kill heroic benemoths when using chain blades??? i cant kill benemoths without chain blades and its killing me cuz if i use anything besides chain blades I suck

[@TheMrTrails]

Well, if you're very practiced with them, it would make sense. The game is a bit more about understanding all of the behemoths first, then playing the other weapons will come naturally to you :)

[@Hotaru_Rinarie]

May I ask why is does your character wield the sword differently?

[@TheMrTrails]

This was made before the sword rework, changing the swords move set entirely

[@viego29]

why is it double tapping with hammer mighty land breaker doesnt work on normal ammoes, it only works with the charged ones, isit bug?

[@TheMrTrails]

It's always been rather precise, gaining a lot of additional attack speed doesn't exactly help it either. Usually I'd be able to perform it fine while away from a behemoth, but once I get to it, it wouldn't work anymore

[@viego29]

​@@TheMrTrails same, its kinda weird, feelsbad cause i was a hammer main and i wanna try playing it again but its not really enjoyable because of this

[@ranecrade2812]

U forgot about adamant bolt that interupts to

[@TheMrTrails]

I can say I honestly didn't know this. It really shouldn't, since it is a shot-type attack (only other shot-type is repeaters), but you don't exactly want to interrupt with it. Because overpower is so strong, you'd want to save that use of the special for when it has already been interrupted.

[@1sneakyboi730]

"Oh hellion? Yeah go cry about it"

It's all about that plant nation now

[@damonenJager19426]

Hello

[@Dale1up]

So you’re telling me I don’t need +6 weighted strikes on chain blades to interrupt??? I’ve never been able to interrupt without weighted strikes on chain blades

[@TheMrTrails]

You can indeed, it used to be you couldn't interrupt without it, but it has since been changed.

[@godhead6754]

my guide: pick spear and spam hard attacks, have fun ;v

[@Gyr0nium]

*ahem* Chain blades interrupt without trading is near impossible pls help

I believe it had been made harder since the video has been posted, but is still very achievable, unless running extremely high latency

You are killing it too fast most likely. Haven't checked out its new interrupt yet, haven't even fought a Valomyr since the last patch come to think of it.
