Deviljho

Deviljho, informally known by many nicknames (e.g. Jho), is classified as a Brute Wyvern. It can only be fought in High Rank quests and is dreaded by the inexperienced and unready hunters. It primarily attacks using its powerful jaw and tail. In rage mode, it can exhale a powerful Dragon Element breath attack, which can inflict Dragonblight. Hunters afflicted by Dragonblight will find their weapon's affinity dramatically reduced (on Tri) and the element (on the weapon in MH3U) negated. Because of their high body heat and metabolism, Deviljho are always hungry and are in constant search of a food source.



When Deviljho enrages, its muscles swells considerably and turn red; causing previous battle scars to be visible. In its enraged state, Deviljho's defenses also change; its stomach becomes more vulnerable to attacks and Elemental damage (Thunder and Dragon) while other areas of its body become tougher.

In its debut appearance in Monster Hunter Tri, Deviljho could be summoned by Qurupeco in High Rank quests (HR31+). However, because it is a wanderer with no fixed habitat, it could be found roaming any High Rank quest at any time. Other than the Quest Speak of the Deviljho, it was not until HR51+ that players were specifically sent out to hunt a Deviljho.

In Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, Deviljho has a chance to appear after clearing HR5/HR6 quests as a Warning Quest Monster as well as appearing randomly while in Upper Rank quests (similar to Tri).

If Deviljho appears via the Warning Quest, the player is given another 50 minutes to slay or capture it and the supply box will be refilled. Even if you fail Warning Quest, it will count as completing the initial quest. The same as in Tri, it isn't until much later in the game players are sent out to actually hunt a Deviljho.
