Probably the most important part of beating Rocky on Abs is the shotgun. That's what takes down the tentacles and leaves his body vulnerable, his heart is actually pretty squishy once he keels over. I've even seen it said that a player can go in and solo the boss with no dinos at all, provided they have an excellent shotgun and a bunch of cactus broth to avoid agro from the creatures he spawns, although I have never tested that strategy myself.

Personally I would much prefer a shotty with 300+ on it, but I know those are exceedingly rare. I don't know what your look quality multiplier is set to so I dunno the chances that you would be able to find one. I can't honestly say whether a 260 one would be enough to solo all the tentacles within the time limit, but if you back up your save you could give it a try then reload your backup if it all falls apart.

One important thing you didn't mention though - medical brews. The energy balls he fires largely ignore armour and hit the player directly, plus they damage the player even when mounted on a drake. So having a bunch of those on your hotbar to spam if you take a few hits would be invaluable.
