Iceblast Brachydios is a Special Species of Brachydios introduced in Monster Hunter Explore.

Physiology[]

Unlike the normal Brachydios, Iceblast Brachydios has ice covering its body. The forelimbs and the back of its head have four flaming ice spikes that contain red slime mold inside them. This red slime seems to be found near the monster's eyes as well.

Abilities[]

Iceblast Brachydios can do just about anything its relatives can do. Unlike said relatives however, this species has the Ice Element. When Iceblast Brachydios roars, it covers the ground in slippery ice and spawns 4 giant ice spikes containing its active slime mold. It can also leave icy slime mold on the ground with its punches, which the explosion inflicts both Snowman and Blastblight Status Ailments. After the explosion, the ground within the burst range becomes frozen and slippery. When it enrages, its horn and arm will start to burn with flames, allowing it to attack stronger and faster.

Habitat[]

Iceblast Brachydios lives exclusively in the Tundra.
