8. Arrogant Duremudira (Frontier Z)

An Extreme variant and yet another Elder Dragon that doesn’t mess around, Arrogant Duremudira harnesses Thunder instead of Ice, firing it in many directions. The real threat is in its faster attacks, on top of its beams now inflicting Corrupted Poison and being much more common. One of its attacks even involves slamming down with both claws and immediately following up with a sweeping beam, in case you had any plans of living. Though its attacks can become predictable after a point, you need deft timing to avoid them and enough damage to get through the fight.
