Sand Barioth

Barioth Subspecies Discussion



A new subspecies of Barioth that appears in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. The Barioth Subspecies lives in the Sandy Plains. Appears to have a new sand tornado attack in which it will create a tornado out of sand then fling itself at the hunter. Instead of having an ice wind blast like the normal Barioth, it shoots a blast of sand, much like the Copper Blangonga. Also this sand blast is not usable for it when it is drooling and tired, and cannot be used until its stamina is regained (done by eating a Rhenoplos). It has adapted an orange-yellow color, probably to blend into the desert, although It has a darker colored red head and white tusks.

The Barioth Subspecies has a yellowish-orange hide, with a red face and green eyes. It also has some new attacks, such as a side tackle and, most notably, a twister blast. This blast doesn't inflict any status ailment, but it creates a dust-devil that the Barioth subspecies will use as a boost to its Sky Pounce attack. It can also fling hunters up in the aire should they pass through it.
