I need a few tips, ehehe...

I decided I wanted to make Brachy X armor and I've fought 4 G-rank Brachy so far (yes, including the urgent with the 2 of 'em) and... well, the single G-rank Brachy quest is kicking my butt. He will combo me relentlessly (case in point; 2 times he knocked me flying with something, then followed up with a power wave [the one where he jumps forward with his horn in the ground a launches a line of explosions] and I'm dead in a heartbeat)

I'm using the typical armor set of Selene Z and the Barbarian Sharq LS. I have no issues with fighting Brachy but I'm really after good masks for my Shaka-twits; I have Cha-Cha in the Ultimate Mask and Kayamba is with Mock Melynx (but I'm changing that because he doesn't steal anything good most of the time). I don't have Speedy Recovery because I just don't feel like fighting village Ceadeus.

The combo-deaths are usually because neither Shakalaka are around when Brachy gets pissed. I'm extremely reluctant to use the Artillery mask because if it misses, I'm down a Shaka and if I need to heal, they're good distractions. Should I break and see if I can slaughter regular Ceadeus for Speedy Recovery? And what mask should I set on Kayamba? (tbh Ceadeus shouldn't be an issue since I've got 2 gunlances with Dragon element, lol)
