Goss Harag - Main Attack Patterns
Charge
Aiming for the hunter, the monster charges forward and attacks. The charge speed seems to be rather slow, and according to the footage we saw it seems that the charge won't follow you and will instead go in a straight line. However, given its large size, it might be difficult to avoid collision with.
Ground Slam & Slash

Using the blade of ice on its right hand, Goss Harag slams the ground and slashes at you. This seems to be a rather powerful attack, but the movement itself seems to be rather slow, so it should be easy to avoid.
