For me, blocking isn't such a good idea on Brachy. Unless I guess if you're using GS, like  DeaththeVictor said. I use Gunlance a lot. But I really had a hard time using it on Brachy. Mostly because Brachy's pretty relentless in his attacks sometimes. And you'd probably run out of stamina from blocking and won't have time to recover, especially when he's in rage mode.

Just bring dung bombs and traps, and focus on killing one of them as soon as possible. They have nerfed HP anyway since it's a dual monster quest. I'm no expert, but I try to always stay close to his legs. Especially when dodging, I always roll towards the legs. It seems like a pretty good blind spot to me.

Good luck! XD
