User blog comment:Rathalos Lancer/how do i kill a barroth, that dumb thing in the desert/@comment-3030425-20100901000942

i had the same problem; i was using bone axe to begin with (because it had the highest attack of all my weapons) and couldnt dodge in time cos i was being greedy and trying to get extra hits.

Bonaparrte is right, as long as you stay out of the way, attacking will become easier.

btw i ended up using spiral lance because when the barroth charges, you just block the hit and he stops right on top of you so you can attack the belly.
