Oil Pillar
InMonster Hunter Wilds, the Rompopolo will pick up its tail and slam the stinger into the ground, which will shoot a pillar of poison oil into the air.

When it is enraged, Rompopolo will make three oil bubbles in a horizontal line. Either way, you shouldroll backwards out of the way. The Rompopolo can only do this move when its tail is inflated, so you can avoid this move entirely by breaking its tail early in the fight.
Oil Circle
When the Rompopolosits on its tail, it will create a ring of oil explosions all around it. In order to avoid this mucky move, you will need to move away from the monster. The attack is centered around its body, so you need to move away from its immediate vicinity.
Arm Slams and Swipes
On occasion, the Rompopolo will lift one of its arms and swipe a claw at you. This move doesn’t have particularly good tracking, so you canroll out of the way to the left or right. There is atwo-clawed versionof this attack also, where it lifts both arms, moves forward, and slams both arms down into you.

Poison Spit Spray

The second poison attack is when the Rompopolo does one massive spurt of poison spit from its mouth; you can tell it’s coming when its tongue starts wiggling around. You need tododge to the left or right,or if you are far back enough, you can roll out of its AOE entirely.
Poison Whips
When the Rompopolo stands up and starts to gather poison around its mouth, you will need to get out of the way quickly. It will rear back a little, andpink lights will appear around its mouthlike in the picture. After that, the Rompopolo will leap forward, lashing the air with poison whips. It doesn’t telegraph this attack very well, so you’ll need to pay close attention to see it coming. You candodge to the left or rightto get around this move.
