Notes
  • About 85,000 HP.
  • Uses normal buffalo TP moves.
    • Snort doesn't show up as a TP move in the log; it just shows a bunch of "Himinrjot hits <Player>" at the same time.
      • This Snort-like attack does conal damage and knockback and ignores Utsusemi.
      • If everyone stands against the wall, the knockback has no effect (but more people will get hit).
  • Hate is very random. Either the Snort move does hate reset, or it just randomly switches targets every few seconds. Even someone AFK away from the battle can get hate.
  • Very high Defense. Lowest when attacking from the back, highest when attacking from the front. Dia III + Angon recommended.
  • Elemental Magic damage is very effective. Thunder works pretty well, at least with Threnody on. Blizzard is mostly resisted.
  • Easily kited, as it stops to do its Snort attack.

Historical Background

Himinrjot, or Himinbrioter, ('Sky Bellower') was the head of a gigantic black ox. The ox belonged to Hymir with whom Thor went fishing for Jormungand, the sea serpent. Thor had no trouble in breaking Himinrjot's neck, despite the animal's vast size, and used its head to bait his hook. Jormungand rose for this delicacy, but the head stuck in his throat. Thor would have landed the prize had not the sight of the serpent rising from the depths of the sea terrified Hymir. In the confusion that ensued Hymir was able to cut the great sea serpent free.
