Gypceros
Monsters that use their prominent crest to stun foes with disorienting flashes of light before finishing them off with poisonous saliva.
Wyverns that can stun enemies by striking their prominent crests to produce powerful flashes of light. Their stretchy, rubbery hide resists blunt impacts and reduces the effectiveness of shock traps. A smart hunter knows to maneuver carefully around the poisonous filth they spew, which drips from ceilings or down slopes.
Faced with a Gypceros, a hunter has two headaches to deal with: the poison and the flashes. The poison will pool and hamper your movements, but you can clear it away with some watermoss. As for the flashes, destroying its crest will stop them; in the meantime, it's a good idea to take cover. If you can see its crest glow before the attack, that means you're still inside the dazzling danger radius.
