The Gritdog is an otter-like Kemono in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Wild Hearts that can use magnetic fields to shape sand intꦇo various objects that mysteriously resemble y♏our Karakuri devices. By employing its brute force attacks and cunning intelligence, the Gritdog can make for a challenging enemy.
Despite its powerful attacks, the Gritdog has several weaknesses that will make themselves apparent as you fight it. Below, we'll take a look at these weaknesses, the best equipment to use to fight it, and some tips and tricks for victory.
Gritdog - Strengths And Weaknesses
- Attribute - Earth
- Soft Parts - Head
- Attribute Weaknesses - Wind, Wood
- Ailment Weaknesses - Poison
- Attribute Resistances - Fire, Earth
- Ailment Resistances - Ablaze
- Physical Effectiveness - Slash, Lunge
The Gritdog is an Earth attribute Kemono, meaning its elemental attacks will deal damage with this attribute. Conversely, it takes increased damage from Wind and Wood attacks, and takes the most damage on its head with Slash and Lunge-type weapons.
Hunter Arm weak points will appear near its hindlegs, indicating that you can grapple onto these s🅘pots to generate Kar🦄akuri Thread and knock the Kemono down.
Best Equipment To Fight Gritdog
Due to its Earth attribute, it's best to use armor that has high Earth resistance. However, for the first time you fight the Gritdog, your options in this category will be limited. Instead, the Basara (Kingtusk) armor set has high defense, and can be combined with the easy-to-craft Ocean Wave set for overall good defense and no negative Earth defense. For repeat fights, the Gritdog's own armor set provides high Earth resistance.
For your weapon craft something in the Ragetail line, as these will have Wood attribute damage, which the Gritdog is weakest to. In general, equip the highest-damage weapon of the type you are most familiar with, and you won't go wrong.
Gritdog - Fight Breakdown And Moves
The Gritdog uses a combination of brute force attacks and elemental creations to overwhelm you with high damage. Typically, its attacks are slow, relying on power over speed. This means that there are several counterattack opportunities between each of its heavy hitters.
Mainly, the Gritdog will attack by slamming its belly onto the ground, either by jumping into the air first or creating waves of crystals after. When you see the Gritdog either jump into the air or stand on its back legs, it's best to get away from its belly. By narrowly avoiding these attacks, you can put yourself in a position to attack the Kemono as its recovering from its body slam.
The Gritdog will use a shoulder tackle move in which it charges forward, dealing damage as it moves. However, at the end of this attack, the Gritdog will collapse to the ground, making an opening for a counterattack. Additionally, the Gritdog has two attacks that it will use twice in a row, the double tail swipe and the double claw swipe. Watch for these attacks from the back and front of the Kemono, respectively.
When enraged, the Gritdog's tail spikes will grow in size and glow red, and a red "mask" will appear around its face. When enraged, the Gritdog's attacks become more powerful, and it will use several new moves incorporating its elemental 🅘abili🐼ties.
Several of the Gritdog's enraged attacks involve covering the nearby area with magnetic sand, which it then uses to pull you towards itself while preparing a deadly attack. The most dangerous of these is its belly drum attack, in which the Gritdog sits up and starts slamming its belly while the magnetic sand constantly draws you closer. The only way to escape this attack is if you have a Spring Karakuri nearby to launch yo𝄹u to safety. Otherwise, you may 🍰just have to eat the damage and hope you survive.
Luckily, you can awaken to the Elemental Lantern Karakuri during this fight, which reduces the damage of elemental attacks while it is active. This device is imperative for surviving the Gritdog's harder-to-avoid attacks, and is created using a Crate, Glider, and Crate.
Throughout its enraged phase, the Gritdog will create several objects that resemble your own Karakuri out of its sand. When the Gritdog creates a sand bomb, it will belly-flop onto it, causing it to explode and increasing the area of effect of the attack. However, the Kemono will be stunned for a moment after this attack, allowing you to counter.
Additionally, the Gritdog can create a sand bulwark wall, which it will slam into, sending shockwaves of crystals in all directions. Move 🦹away from this attack to avoid it, then prepare to dive back in with a Spring Karakuri.
