~Intro...
This is a walkthrough for the Playstation Portable game Monster
Hunter Freedom 2. In this guide you’ll find many things... But before
you get started there are a few things you should know. First off if
a certain strategy doesn’t work for you, do not be afraid to try something
of your own. As you will find out I prefer the basic Sword and Shield
and never really use bows.
Also, since most of the missions repeat in one way or another, I’m going
to give in depth strategies just for the first time the monster appears
yet make it so it will help you even throughout the harder G rank missions.
This means you might not get that much variance through out similar
missions... I mean, how many different ways can I tell you how to kill a
Yian Kut-Ku? Thus I made the enemy section as detailed as I could.
Now, I’m going to do all of the Elder missions then as many Gathering
hall quests that I can. If you still need more help you can use the more
detailed Enemy List section. Believe me, if there is one section I
recommend over any, it is that
If you are new to the game and want to know as many pointers I personally
use to minimize getting killed and maximize poaching innocent wild animals
read on... If you think you know how to play for yourself and just need
some mission tips you can skip this part. But hey, read it for fun or for
a different view on things.
***********************************************************
*Adapting to the PSP’s lack of the second shoulder buttons*
***********************************************************
The biggest problem people have with this game is the controls. Attacking
and other simple things don’t pose the problem... But the camera is a very
big complaint. I would say 80% of the game is paying close attention to the
monster to know when to dodge and when to attack. So it is very important
to always look at them. Now, I VERY rarely use the auto center camera command
to keep my eye on the monster. I do, however, use the left and right D-pad
buttons to circle and pay attention.
I strongly recommend getting your index finger in shape to lay on both left
and right at all times. Your tip should be on the right D-pad button and the
top of your first knuckle should be on the left D-pad button WITHOUT
sacrificing your movement button hold (your thumb should be on this button).
Now, it does take practice to perfect this way to move, BUT TRUST ME being
able to circle around an enemy at all times will not only keep you on the
move helping you to constantly avoid attacks, but will also let you keep a
helpful eye to know when to attack and where.
This will also keep some enemies in a constant turn state if you are close
enough to them... Less attacks = better success.
The finally reason to use this method goes back to the avoiding attacks
again. If you aren’t constantly dodging about 95% of the attacks you’ll have
some major issues down the line when you get to the harder missions. This is
why I will make even the Yian Kut-Ku seem completely dangerous... So when
you get to the harder missions, you’ll know how to attack and defend better.
If you think you can damage race the whole game, you’ll be in for a rude
awaking.
Just a word of warning: If you depend on this strategy ALL the time and thus
too much, you’re left index finger will hurt especially if you have that
slimmer whiter newer PSP. Of course this assumes you have normal size fingers
as well.
If I ever get an email asking for help Versus a certain monster, THE FIRST
THING I WILL ASK IS:
Do you circle the enemy? If you don't use this strategy, I am very likely
to just tell you to use it any ways, and come back to tell me the results.
***************************************************
*When to cheese with items and when to suck it out*
***************************************************
Once you begin the game you will be even tell you that the BBQ spilt is a
bit expensive... At $560 (no tax) it can be steep at the beginning.
Any ways you no doubt run into issues in the beginning with money issues
such as when to buy what. Well you’ll want to rely on supply items for the
most part... But ALWAYS take items in the box that aren’t supply items
(Cool/Hot Drinks/Paintballs/SONIC BOMBS!!!!!)
If you are particularly cheap, you will never have to buy a drink or
Ball until the harder missions... At which time it won’t be an issue.
Always use Herbs before potions as they are cheaper for the amount of health
they heal.
When starting off, plant power seeds in your garden with fertilizer to make
an average of 1,000+ a row. Doing this after every mission (while remembering
to not sell all but 3) will get you the money you need quickly.
Now, always keep honey... You make think your beehive was a dull investment
until you start making Max Potions all the time as well as Mega Potions.
When in a mission you also have to keep track of how many of an item you
have and when to use them. If you have one cool drink left, low health
(no healing left) minimum stamina (no rations), don’t use, die first...
No sense using it for a few seconds. Just remember the only thing that
doesn’t restore is your weapon sharpness.
Another important thing to consider: When to use an item during a fight.
Unless you know when the safe times are and they aren’t in a rage mode,
it’s safest always to leave the area first.
When thinking of what to bring, always keep these in your backpack:
10 Herbs
10 Potions
10 Mega Potions
2 Well-Done Steaks
20 Whetstones
4 Iron Pick Axes
4 Bugnets
It may seem steep, but when you get to the harder missions the more healing
the better. The Axes and Nets are strictly for gathering if anything for
Pokke points, especially when waiting for that time limit to run down after
the kill.
Remember, if you need to use an item, use it. You can always get them back...
And is better than wasting up to 50 minutes for nothing.
Also, when you get towards hard missions, you really need to crunch items...
As you’ll need books of combos and such... So don’t pass up room saving items
such as the hot/cold meats. Also, don't forget to use Armor/Power Seeds for
the beginning of the game, and Mega/Demon Drugs and Mega/Armor Skins for the
harder missions. I only used them a few times since I personally don't like
to use items... but when I did, the difference was amazing.
***********************************************
*I keep dying in a few hits, what should I do?*
***********************************************
Sometimes you will need items and equipment with good skill around there as
well. If you go into a fight, and things kill you too quick, here's what
you can do...
Make Stronger Armor/Use Armored Spheres:
Don't be cheap when it comes to your life. Always make sure you gear is the
maximum level it can be at to ensure longer life. If it makes you broke, you
can always get money very easily by selling unneed supplies.
For all of the G ranks I did, along with all the lower Gathering hall
missions, I used...
Rathalos Helm/Tigrex Gloves/Tigrex Armor/Tigrex Tassel/Rathalos Soul Greaves
Equipped with the proper gems to give +15 to psychic vision (Auto Tracker =
No more paint/looking) and +10 to attack (Attack up small).
Make Max Potions:
And extra 50% to health is MUCH better than it seems. In fact, it can help
you a lot more than you think. Dragon Toadstools aren't even hard to come by.
Use Armor Seeds/Skins:
This one is self explanatory... they stack too.
Take a look at your resists:
Me and my (fake) cousin were against the Khezu for some fun. Now his idiot
ass died all 3 times... I looked at his resists... a nice big -10. I don't
think I have to say anything else.
And finally, use that damn kitchen:
This can give you things like defense/resists/life.
*******************
*Do not be greedy!*
*******************
I may say this many times and I will always imply it. It might be tempting to
get that final hit of the combo in. Sometimes you might knock the monster
down... Or sometimes it might counter your attack.
Remember that most of the things in this game can easily out damage you in
seconds. This is why you MUST remember and take note on how many hits with
your weapon you can get it before you’ll get hit.
It’s not uncommon to watch me play, see me randomly roll out of the way of
a claw swipe in the middle of a combo... Safe than sorry right?
However, when you see the words “10 minutes remaining” or see the monster you
are hunting limping or in there close to death state, you should disregard
the "play it safe and not greedy" way of action.
*********************************
*When to block and when to roll.*
*********************************
If you don’t have a weapon that can block, the answer is obvious. But if you
are like me and use the sword and shield you sometimes have the choice to
make.
Should I risk rolling?
Or should I bite the bullet and block?
The trade off is simple, you sometimes take guard damage.
Roll when you are close to a charging enemy. But if you are far away from
the enemy, make sure to block has they can easily turn a bit and hit you.
Remember if it looks like it will hit you, it probably will. Especially
when you fight that chump from the opening movie, just his finger nail
coming into contact with you it will do full damage.
Block a tail swing if you are in the middle of it’s range, then roll out of
the way if comes back around again.
Roll between legs when a swing starts... BUT BLOCK IF YOU SUSPECT a hip
check. The hip check is a move that can ruin your day... And if you don’t
dodge right from the beginning to the right (its left) you’ll probably get
hit due to poor hit detection.
Always try to roll away from fire balls unless you don’t know which way it
will be coming from.
Block roars. Roars are pretty much one of the cheapest attacks in the game.
Long radius, very little cue in most cases, and once it hits you are a
sucker for damage. In most cases with an enraged enemy, you will get hit.
In the event you are underneath the enemy, make sure your shield is facing
the mouth or in the case of the Gypceros, face his head. If you don’t have
a shield or think you won’t be able to block if able, STAND IN FRONT OF THE
RIGHT LEG! This will sometimes get you hit with weak attack and pushed back,
better than getting charged.
*****************************************
*Why do I keep bouncing off the enemies?*
*****************************************
Simple answer: Sharpness and where you hit the enemy. Mostly the first. If
you find yourself bouncing off too often, either sharpen or get a sharper
weapon.
**********************
*Capturing VS Slaying*
**********************
There are two ways to end most “Big Monster” missions, each with there own
rewards. For the most part, capturing is not only quicker to end the
mission, but you usually get more items out of it. You have to check into
the item capture/carve list in the enemy section to decide what is better
as some items can only be carved and visa versa.
As to actually capture, you need the monster in a trap, like the shock trap,
then pelt them with two tranq-bombs. Make sure they are limping or on their
death bed. Has to get tranqs, either refer to the combo list or do the
Rathalos mission in the Gathering Hall.
*************************
*Raw Vs Elemental Damage*
*************************
It may seem tempting when looking at weapon stats to assume that 400+
elemental damage is pure awesomeness. Well the truth is, you really have
to look at what is weak to what. The majority of things hardly ever take
full damage from anything, and even LESS from elemental. So unless you
prepare accordingly using my little weakness charts in the enemy section,
it’s always safe to stick with Raw damage.
***************************************************************
*Help, I can't find the monster... and your guide sucks at it!*
***************************************************************
Since usually only the first time a monster is seen (via an unlocked movie)
is a certain area, I usually can't tell you were it is 100% of the time.
I can, however tell you four very good tips.
+Use Psycho Serum: Although it doesn't last very long, it will point you in
the right direction. The only time it won't work is if the monster is on the
move any ways... try to use this in the middle of the map as a whole so you
can quickly move to it.
+Use Paint Balls: A very obvious reason why... once you first find an enemy,
PAINT THE BASTARD! This will let you keep track of its every move. It's a
good idea to save paint balls in early missions then take a bunch with you
for harder missions. When I did use paint, I would make sure to redo it
every 10 minutes. Beware, I know the Blangonga can actually wipe off paint.
+Auto Tracker/Psychic Vision: Probably the best reason to kill the Tigrex
is to get this skill. You need 15 points to activate it, and once you do,
it will show you where your targets are AT ALL TIMES!
+Balloonist: Now, I only heard of this as a rumor, so I never tested it
out... but I hear if you wave to him he helps you locate the monster.
Not sure if it is a cue by him pointing the way or a map blip... but
remember, I'm not sure if it works.
**************************************************
*Heart side? What the **** are you talking about?*
**************************************************
Instead of me saying attack his left (your right) and visa versa, I'm just
going to either say attack his "Heart Side" or his "Heartless Side". You
would not believe how many people in my past would screw up the "his left"
sort of thing, so I would always resort to saying this.
If you don't know what side of the body a heart is on, place you're hands
on your chest. Where ever you feel a beet, there it is.
Hint: On your left, his right :D
(Note I'm using absolute reasoning based on the human body, as I don't know
where hearts actually are in fake dino-monsters)
*********************
*G Rank? What's that*
*********************
G rank doesn't really exist... but it's what everyone and their mother
calls it on the Message board.
It's ANY mission that you need to Be Hunter Rank 4 ("HR4") basically in the
Gathering Hall mission with the girl on the right or some of the
downloadable missions.
************************************************
*What the ****, you stopped at the Dual Tigrex?*
************************************************
Unfortunately, I am unable to give any info on anything past HR5 due to a
broken PSP. The good news is that I did get a lot in before it broke and
some monster stats from things a couple of my friends supplied me with.
Enemies I've actually NEVER fought/killed before are as follows: Gold
Rathian, Silver Rathalos, Rajang*, Loa-Shan Lung*, Fatalis (All three), and
Akantor.
*I've fought Rajang in a multi player game before, I probably could have had
him dead if wasn't for my crappy friend. I never fought Loa-Shan Lung
before, but fought his harder "Ash" color version, so if you came for a
strategy on him, that one will work for both.
That wraps it up for the intro... Anything else you need to know should be
found in it’s respected area.

~Pre-Elder Rank 1 Set Up
Nothing much you really can do to prepare besides select a weapon. To find
out which one you like or how to use it, make sure to do the training course
for that said weapon. In fact, it's a good idea to do all the other
training courses to get a good grasp of the game.
To open up the Urgent Request "The Carnivorous Leader" to unlock the Two
Star Elder Quests you must first clear the missions:
Hunt the Carnivore
Sinking Feeling
Slay the Blangos!

Main Monsters:
Popo
Anteka
Special Conditions:
No
Quest Level: *

Deliver 5 Mountain Herbs
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Loving Sibling
Quest Details:
I want to pick some of this village's famous Mountain Herbs for my brother
in town, but there are too many monsters! Could you please go out for me
and bring back 5 Mountain Herbs?
Walkthrough:
A very easy mission... you'll want to head up north to the cave or snowy
areas. At the top of 5 is the first place you can find them.
You probably can get all 5 you need from there... if you can't, head to
the north areas (6, 7, and 8) to find others you need.
A little tip, these are worth 50 Pokke Points when not delivering them
for a mission... so remember the places you get these at as they will be
the bulk of your early Pokke Points.

Quest Details:
In the Eastern lands, it is said that an Anteka's antlers are good for
one's health. I would like to test this proverb. Please acquire 3 of these

Walkthrough:
Another simple quest. In this one, you'll have to hunt down near
defenseless deer for their antlers.
Just kill them, then press "Circle" to carve. If you don't get one,
kill another, it's random, but it isn't a rare carve.
They usually could spawn in almost any area. I don't think you will be
coming to this FAQ for this mission though.

actual enemies that will want to hunt you as well. This isn't a hard
mission, in fact, you can easily go blow for blow and win this mission.
You also get MORE than enough time to find all of these guys... 10 minutes
for each... and believe me, I could finish this mission in just 5, as well
as anyone could.
Also, this is the same as the training missions... so you should be used
to it by now.

Client: Frightened Youth
Quest Details:
As usual, I went into the mountains on my hunt for Popos; however, today
they were frightened and fled to the summit. Something must be up there...
Please get the Popo Tongues for me!
Walkthrough:
Now two things you should know about this mission... to Popo are at the top
of the mountain (areas 6, 7, and 8) and they only give you 20 minutes to do
the mission.
This mission isn't hard... and more so used to introduced our friendly
poster boy in the flesh.
If you suck at this game, and believe me, you just started, so you do suck,
this will be the first time you'll learn how to run like a puss.
Ok, enough beating around the bush, the Tigrex will be in this mission.
If you see the large orange beast, YOU SHOULD RUN! It is VERY powerful,
fast, and aggressive. You have no hopes of beating it... the time limit
will prevent that.
So, you'll want to just make your way to the top of the mountains, and kill
the Popo you see... BUT ONLY WHEN THE TIGREX IS NOT IN THE AREA.
Look, this mission isn't hard... but you can DIE very quickly... the good
news is that you don't have one life... you have three.
Remember, a Popo can be carved twice, so if you are lucky, you can actually
get this mission done with just killing two of them.
If you feel particularly ballsy, you can break parts of the Tigrex
(Scar the face, break his arm claws, or cut off his tail). You don't have
to kill him to get these rewards. Good luck on doing this... if you don't
have that luck, you could just wait till you fight him for real...
but his armor is sexy... tough choice, isn't it :D

If you did the Giaprey Mission, this should not be any different. In
I find them easier to kill since they are bigger targets.

~Elder Rank 1-2 Intermission
Now you should have many new things to buy... let alone afford at this
moment... hopefully you will utilize my "Circling" the enemy strategy.
Since the first five missions are easy... you'll soon find yourself
fighting much bigger enemies besides the "Dromes". But just because you
can circle and keep your eye on the enemy... doesn't mean you'll get the
kill.
You'll have a few missions here where you will need to REALLY pay attention
to the monster... instead of just hitting them blindly.
Now, although I can give a detailed description of every monster in
every mission, if you scroll down to the "Enemy" section, I try my best to
list the times to attack and the times to avoid particular attacks.
Other than those tips, make sure you are using your Pokke Farm... you
shouldn't have too many points yet... but make sure you always grab those
Mountain Herbs (and Special Mushrooms). For money, use the rows of the
field to plant items. If you get hold of power seeds, you can plant them
and sell them for 140 a piece... which isn't bad. But if money isn't on
your mind, and want an easier time with missions, plant both the power and
armor seeds... and don't be afraid to over stock them.
For unlocking the Urgent mission "Shadow in the Snow" to unlock the next
set of mission, you will need to do:
Reckless Bulldrome Hunter
Jungle Menace

If you do this mission, and don't opt to just place the Paw Pass Ticket
in the Red Chest the instant you get in the map, try to find all the

you'll be able to keep getting every time you enter this map.

Client: Pokke Village Chief
Quest Details:
It seems that I can trust you with a difficult job like this. I'd like you
to hunt down the leader of a Giaprey pack, the Giadrome. I wish you a
beautiful victory in our defense!
Walkthrough:
This is an "Urgent" mission... as beating it will let you get to the two
star quests.
Any ways, it is most likely your first mission in which you'll have to
fight something that won't die in a single combo.
First you'll have to find him, so head up to the snowy mountain area...
areas 6, 7, and 8. You'll find him around there somewhere. Now assuming
you picked up the paintballs, you can paint him so you always know where
he is... OR you can just save them because he can't fly like most of the
enemies you'll fight in the future.
Now, if you practiced on the Giaprey in earlier missions, he is not going
to give you a problem if they didn't. Take care to not get hit by the snow
ball attack as it will freeze you.
Once it is injured, it may run to another area. If you follow it too quick,
make sure you turn around, as it will be right behind you.
If you do good in this mission (IE not take a hit... as you really
shouldn't if you only attack his sides after it attacks you). You should
have no trouble with the other type of "Raptor" enemies. They are all
generally the same with just different side effects.
If you need more help, you can always check the enemy section. But odds
are, you won't die by this... it has many simple attacks that don't really
pose a big threat.

Quest Details:
My son decided to become a hunter and ran off after a Bulldrome on his own!
Of course, now the tables have turned and I'm worried! Hunt down the

Walkthrough:
Remember the Giadrome mission? This guy stays in pretty much the same areas.
If you know how to attack, then roll out of the way before he charges,
you will not get hit a single time... and that isn't that rare to see.
Unlike the Giadrome, DO NOT FOLLOW IT too quickly. If you leave within
about 10 seconds of it, usually you will start in front of it... and it
will usually ALWAYS get in a hit.
If you are in Area 6, and happen to have a bow, you can snipe him without
worry on the ledge... or go up there if you need a break.
It's also a good idea to pick the berries there for armor seeds. But
really... this mission isn't hard.

this is your chance!
Walkthrough:
Nothing too hard... think of it just like a quadruple training mission.
Remember to kill all of them you see, then search every other area for
them as they can be almost any where.
For an added bonus, you can kill another Giadrome. I recommend doing this
just for easy practice and carves.
If he seems too much for you... you can always avoid him... but if you don't
kill him, he can makes your life hell when hunting the other Prey on the

If you are doing the missions in order, this is MUCH easier than the last...
and a joke. Just make sure you look in every area to find them, as they
can spawn in any area besides the grassy section.
And if you find the Bulldrome, don't be afraid to kill it... because if
you plan on carving, it will surely interrupt you.

Quest Details:
The Mountain Herb, one of the seven sacred mountain flowers, truly captures
the spirit of the mountains. There shouldn't be any wyverns in this
weather, so you may gather with ease.
Walkthrough:
Just like the mission in the previous rank, only you need triple.
Hit up area 5, and pick from both of those spots at the top of the little
hill. Once you do that, head out to 6, and gather from the spot along the
side of the cliffs.
Now, if you still need more... and you likely will, head to 8, gather from
the spot that is right next to the cliff wall... if that still doesn't make
your 15 herb cut off, go into the secret area... simply crouch and go
through the small space. There will be a gathering spot there that will
give you MANY herbs. If that still isn't enough... and this time I doubt
it won't be... head to 8, which has another gathering spot.
Return to the Red Chest once complete.

If you killed the Giadrome, this guy is no different... even easier since
he can't freeze you. It usually starts somewhere in 8, then moves to
6 --> 5 --> 7 --> 3 and then back to 8. So if you can't find him, circle
that area and you should.
Most likely he will find you.

Client: Jungle Envoy
Quest Details:
I want you to hunt and kill the giant bird-like monster that has appeared
in our jungle. It's wreaking havoc on our environment and must be stopped!
Walkthrough:
Probably the first mission you'll play where you have to fight a REAL enemy.
Not saying he's hard... but he will be the first of what is to come.
Now, keep in mind he isn't like the Raptors... he will damage you from
simple things such as turning and stepping forward.
This is also the first fight in which I highly suggest using my circling
strategy I listed all the way up in the info section... use it and learn
it. It will make fighting the rest of the enemies in this game a lot easier
to manage. Also make sure to pay attention to ALL of his attacks... you
will see ALL of them in other monsters to come.
He can be fought in many areas, in fact, I think I've seen him everywhere
except from the cave areas while not injured. Once you find him, make sure
to keep him painted. If you see him limp, and you don't have him painted,
he will be in cave area (area 6).
For further info on the Yian Kut-Ku, check out my enemy section. I would
recommend you fight him without using too many offensive items... because
if you can't kill him without items, you are going to have trouble with
actual difficult enemies... but if you insist, you can use Sonic Bombs to
really mess him up. I think they give you a couple in the chest... if
you use just one, it will make him drop a shiny, which most likely be
worth 500 Pokke Points... so it isn't a bad idea.
For more Sonic Bombs, you can mix a Screamer and Gunpowder. To get
Gunpowder, mix in fire herbs and nitroshrooms. But trust me... there
are many more enemies in this game that they are better saved for.

Walkthrough:
A very quick to run and hard to kill beast... although he leaves himself
open, he has a lot of health.
Before starting this mission, make sure you have a good supply of
whetstones as you'll need them. It's your call if you want to take
Deodorant with you to get off the crap smell... and of course, you should
take a few paint balls.
For the majority of the fight, you should really learn how to play it safe
and attack only when you know you won't get hit back. Consult my enemy
section for better details on how to deal with this monkey.
I usually fought him the majority of the time in areas 1 and 3... so visit
them often if you are looking for him. Also, he will run to area 6, the
cave, to sleep once damaged enough.

If you bring a way to poison them, you will get a bunch of good carves

Any ways, he will usually circle around the desert like...

He's nothing you haven't fought before if you know how to deal with the
other Raptor Dromes. Just take care, as he can paralyze you. If your cool
drink wears off... try to kill him soon... also, avoid fighting him in
area 6, as it will drain your stamina faster due to the cold cave.
Area 4 should also be avoided due to a large amount of Genprey there.

Quest Details:
Our pack-animals were eaten by something in the desert. But nobody actually
saw the monster attack! Track down this vile beast and take it out!
Walkthrough:
Before you enter this map, make sure you have a couple cool drinks and as
many sonic bombs as you feel comfortable taking.
The reason for the sonic bombs is because this ****er likes to stay in the
sand for a long long time. Using one of these will pop him out, and give
you a lot of free time to hit him.
Now, once he is out... you can play it safe and counter attack him or you
can just go to town on him. Since this is still early in the game, it isn't
a bad idea... but can teach you bad qualities.
If you choose to play the counter game, attack him only when he does that
sand spit crap. It is very easy to see coming, has a long start up, and
will never hit you if you are on the move.
The choice it yours...
You'll find him in the two large sandy areas (2 and 5). He will only go
to 7 if he is injured.

Hello sirs and madams! I deal in rare items that I find in the desert.
Recently I've got a buyer for Piscine Wyvern and Sand Wyvern livers.
Deliver 3 of them to me!
Walkthrough:
Before choosing this mission, I suggest 3 things.
1. Take a Hammer
2. Take a couple cool drinks
3. Take a few sonic bombs
Use the sonic bombs if you REALLY can't get them out of the sand with the
hammer. To use the hammer the right way, you'll want to hit them after
their sand spit attack while they poke their head up. If you don't get hit
with their body once they come up, you can run over to where they are and
start pounding the sand...
It usually works. Read them in my enemy section to learn more about this.
Also... the most annoying part... sometimes you might not get the livers
all that often. I can remember I got the scales like 8 times in a row!
The good news is, you only need three... so if you happen to waste all
your sonic bombs and come up short, you can always "Abandon Quest" and
try again.
Two more tips to use...
Go to the middle sand area (1), it's smaller and thus easier to catch up
to them. If they aren't there right away, move to five then head back to
1 in a little while.
And finally... kill that damn Gendrome... he will annoy the hell out of
you...

3. Fish.
Remember, they are a yellow/gold color. If you have the Goldenfish bait,

If it's not one thing, it's another, right? Near the village, a strange
flying wyvern called a Khezu has been spotted. It is strong, but I believe
you can handle it. Do your very best!
Walkthrough:
Ok your second Urgent Quest... and one with a monster with a lot of health
and a really annoying defense tactic.
Now, before starting this quest, make sure you have at least 3 hot Drinks,
a couple paintballs, and a couple psycho serums. This is because the wyvern
likes to fly around... a lot... and it's not uncommon to have him land in
a spot... then fly away.
Finding him is the hardest part... that's why I suggest the psycho serum.
If you don't have them, he usually flies between 6, 7, and 8. Sometimes he
might be in the cave (3) or even in 1! Trust me... I hate when he is in one,
because it's just out of the way.
Now, read the section I have on him in the enemy section, since if you
don't have a good fire weapon, it might take you a while to kill him.
Hang in there and make sure you have a lot of healing items... I doubt
you'll have good lightning resist... but if you do, use it.

Fail Condition:

Time Over
Client: Delicacy Collector
Quest Details:
I'm after the rare larvae of the Khezu. They should be on the summit,
so search there. These whelps aren't to be taken lightly. If you run out
of pickaxes, combine a bone with a rock!
Walkthrough:
First off, make sure you have as many pickaxes as you can carry... I doubt
you will need all of them... but you never know.
Farcasters are an option, you can sometimes buy them off that hag or by
combining Bomb Material and an Exciteshroom.
Any ways, head to area 8, go to the secret area, climb up the "ladder"
only to the first level (ignore the one that goes even higher). You should
see what seems to be a dead dragon. Use your pick on the little crack in
the arm/bone. Most of the time, you will get the whelp.
Once you do, you need to hurry back to base camp and drop them off as they
damage you as you carry them. Thankfully you don't have to actually hold
them like the eggs.
If you have Farcasters, they will make the mission about half as long.
You don't need them though.
Just for the record, from now on, you can take a Whelp back to the Red
Chest for an easy 400 pts. A little tip is to wait till you're target is
almost dead (limping or what not), grab the whelp, then finish it off.
It's dangerous, so you really need to make sure your target is almost dead.
Any ways, if you finish the mission with one, you will still get the
400 Pokke Points.

Walkthrough:
Other than getting a glimpse of what the Crab does in the enemy section,
the only real thing you can do to prepare for this mission is make a choice.
If you want all you can get from this Crab, bring a hammer. If not, bring
anything you want. This is because its shell can really only be smashed
with a hammer... other than that, you should only need a few potions...
and that's only if you get greedy and trade blows...

Quest Details:
Hunt down the water wyvern that keeps harassing my shipyard! Your target
is a monster covered in green scales that is more powerful than its cousin!
Heh heh!
Walkthrough:
If you are trying this mission, you all ready know what do to. Bring Frogs
(and use them ALL the time for when he isn't aware of you) and many sonic
bombs (and items to make them in your inventory). The good news is, if you
don't have frogs, you can get in from a rock in the 3rd area.
Now for the Plessy itself. You'll only find it in Area's 3 or 4. Which is
good, since you'll always see it. Now in area 4, make sure to get rid of
those annoying raptors... they can make fishing hard.
Other than that, you may want to take a shock trap for this bastard...
he can get quite hard once you get him to critical health... mostly
because sonic bombs won't work on the first try and he will constantly
jump back to the water.
There is good news and bad news about the new terrain. Area 3 isn't bad,
but Area 4 doesn't give you too much room to avoid that water beam. The
good news is that once he comes up, he won't have a lot of room to run
around.
Using a bow is a good idea, but DO NOT kill him in the water. That is all...
Besides that, if you killed the first one, this one is just more of the same.

The same Crab as the other mission, only you will usually have a lot more
room to dodge... unless you fight it in 9 and especially in 10.
Any ways, make sure you have cool drinks... but if you know what you are
doing and use a hammer you will be able to kill it WAY before that time.
Good Luck.

Quest Details:
I found a giant water wyvern in a cave in the desert! I can't defeat it
because it stays underwater. Slay it for me and the glory is all yours!
Walkthrough:
Ok, first off, I STRONGLY suggest you look at my enemy section. Yes, I
spam it a lot in my own guide... but should give you a good insight on this
monster.
Although the monster isn't hard to survive (especially if you use my
strategies found in that enemy section), but like the Details say... it
stays under water.
For this mission, I suggest taking hot drinks (you'll use the quick
entrance to area 6 from the starting point, and you'll need these so you
have stamina), Frogs, Sonic bombs... and a shock trap (with tranq bombs) if
you want all the help you can get.
Now it will go to 6 and 7 all the time. That is all. Now, ALWAYS start off
with fishing... but only after clearing the area from enemies (6 has
crabs and 7 has herbies... WHICH must die... don't think they won't nudge
you right when you're about to real in the biggest ****ing wyvern in the
game!)
Now, attack however you want once he is out... whether you get him out by
fishing or sonic bombing him out. It's your choice... hack his feet for
consistent moderate damage... or wait to counter attack his head after the
water attack... which is inconsistent HEAVY damage.
The choice is yours...
Use the shock trap once his fin goes down, then chuck 2 tranq bombs at him.
A remember, if you use a bow, you can peg him in the water. Just make sure
you don't kill him in there.

Nothing too hard to deal with... in fact, I consider this one of the easiest
Wyverns in the game... for one, you can literally attack the insides of his
legs without fear of getting hurt... and if you break his head crest, you
will get ample time... to even cook meat in front of him!
Any ways, make sure that is the first think you go for.
For prep, make sure you have a weapon that can block and some antidotes
handy.

opinion) enemy, you'll need a few supplies.
Mainly Hot Drinks (two may not be enough), and paint. He does jump around
a lot... and can actually scratch it off.
Other than that, if you a circling him, he will never hit you and you have
a ton of time to counter attack Vs all of his "snow" based attacks. Combine
with the fact that he doesn't have a lot of life, he shouldn't pose to much
of a problem.

If you killed the Khezu before in the mountains, this one shouldn't be too
much of a problem. Although he has more health, you will be fighting him in

Other than that, he can cling to the ceiling in the Swamp... easy to avoid
if you aren't blind, it more or less just wastes your time.
For items, make sure you have a couple antidotes in case you step in the
poison and a hot drink if you plan to fight him in the cave.

Walkthrough:
First of all, to unlock this mission, I'm pretty sure you need to kill at
least 10 Yian Kut-Ku. If by small chance you can't do that, I know you can
download one from the internet.
Any ways, before stepping into this mission, make sure you have the sharpest
weapon you can have, a ton a whetstones, healing, and antidotes.
Now this bird is half Yian Kut-Ku and half Rathian. The Rathian, you haven't
fought yet, but she isn't hard. Any ways, I can say that I'm good at the
game... the time I fought this guy, I was down to my last healing item and
with under two minutes left on the clock.
What does that tell you? Come back to this mission if you can't do it right
away... there is no hurry. If not, you can wing it.
Remember all of the sonic bombs I told you to save during the Yian Kut-Ku
and giant Crab fight? Use them now if you desire... but they are still
unneeded.

Quest Details:
This is a request to the virtuous hunters of Pokke. A Monoblos is tearing
through the desert near my village of Kokoto. Please hunt it down for us!
Walkthrough:
Although I'm going to tell you the number one thing to bring in for this
mission (besides a printable version of my enemy section), but you should
try to fend this beast off without them. This is the mission I consider
the "how well you will do in the rest of the game" mission.
In fact, it's the first mission were I ALWAYS take a shield. There are times
when he will be far away... and pull off a near undodgable charge.
Now, first you'll have to find him. Sometimes he will be under the sand and
you can't see him... so make sure you brought a couple of psycho serums to
help locate him... once you do, use paint so you don't lose him. He can
only be in areas 1, 2, 3, 5, and 9 by the way.
3 and 9 are the good places to fight him in... because you can make him get
stuck in the rocks (either by climbing the area in 9, or staying on the
opposite end of the big rock in 3... or just do it like me, block facing
him right next to the rock... you'll take a little damage, but you'll be
closer thus being able to get in more attacks)
When he is stuck, make sure you remember, if you go to break his horns,
and actually do, he won't get stuck any more.
For items, make sure to bring a lot of healing (a max potion isn't
necessary, but can help if you find yourself taking too much damage). Also,
this should be your first mission in the night desert, so make sure to
bring a couple of hot drinks.
Now that item that destroys him? Sonic bombs. If you use them while he JUST
goes underground, he will pop out and you'll be able to do a lot of damage
to him. Use these if you are about to die, or time is getting low... just
make sure you remember that he can't be stunned while in his rage mode as
seen by his black breath.

If you can kill the other giant crab, he shouldn't pose too much of a
problem.
The main differences are that he has LONG range... but when he attacks you
from the front he can sometimes miss as it's just a downward strike.
True is, he doesn't do life threatening damage... so you shouldn't need too
much help for this guy.
Remember, if you want to break his shell, a hammer is the way to go.

Walkthrough:
You should have a lot of practice with these guys all ready... so not too
much can be said that you don't all ready know.
One thing to note, is that they have a bit lower health than if they were
in their own little mission.
I do recommend taking one at a time... and ONLY fighting one at a time.
To aid you if you are having trouble, take shock traps/sonic bombs and
utterly destroy one of them. It will be quick... and you can smooth sail
the rest of the mission.

Quest Details:
A wyvern attacked my team from out of the blue while we were on an

Walkthrough:
You'll want to bring antidotes, cool drinks, and if you want an easier time,
as many bombs as you want... the bigger the better.
The first thing you have to do is find him. Use just one psycho serum to
find the area he is in... as most likely he will be half under ground..
throw a paint ball at him to not only mark him, but to safely get him out
of the ground... don't forget to collect your shiny drop.
Remember, he looks like a rock, and blends in really well.
Now, before even using bombs or attacking him, try your best to bait him
into the rocks by standing on the other side of them. You'll want to do
this as much as you can, because once his chest plate is off, you'll do
massive damage to him.
For weapons, you really could use anything... but a bow will let you happily
snipe him... and doing so, you shouldn't get hit... he is very predictable.

These was surely a vortex inside of that downpour. The wind wrapped around
and revealed Kushala Daora! I don't foresee anyone defeating it. Weaken it
and then drive it away!
(or I saw it! I saw it! In the middle of a blinding snow storm, there is was
dark black wings were dancing in the sky... No mere human could stand up to
it! Don't even think of hunting it!)
Walkthrough:
First off, Elder Dragon missions are all random... but you will usually get
him in the Mountains first.
First thing to remember is you don't have to kill it on your first try...
only last 25 minutes with it... this is assuming you are actually doing
damage to it.
For items to take, make sure you have a lot of healing, and hot drinks/
thawing agents for the mountain. For weapons... I doubt you have a dragon
elemental weapon yet, so take a lightning one for decent damage.
Now, you're primary goal is to break his horns so his wind shield stops.
Other than using the poison daggers to get in a few moments of free attacks
in, you'll want to hit his head after his wind gust attack.
Even if you do a little damage to him, as long as you break his head the
first time you fight him, you'll have no trouble killing him. In fact, he
is rather easy without it since he has no defense on his sides.
Once you make him leave (chances are, you won't be killing him on your
first try) do a couple of missions and you'll eventually see him come back
in the jungle mission.
I would highly recommend killing this guy until you get so Elder Dragon
blood... it's rare, but can make sure Dragon Elemental weapons early.

Client: Pokke Village Chief
Quest Details:
The Tigrex, said to be an ancestor of today's wyverns, has finally made an
appearances. With such a powerful beast on the loose, the village is not
safe. Hunt it down at once!
Walkthrough:
In my opinion, the hardest monster, pound for pound in the game... and I
would consider this the "Final Mission"... so if you beat this mission,
consider it a game winning one as you finally kicked the shit out of that
bastard that got you in the beginning.
Any ways, make sure you have Mega Potions, on top of 10 potions and herbs.
3 Hot drinks, Armor/Power Seeds, and if you need them, try to make a max
potion or two. I strongly suggest going for the capture in this mission...
(shock trap and at least two tranq bombs), this is because once he is
injured, not only will he go into his unstoppable rage mode more often, but
he'll be in that tiny cave (area 3).
Also, you may want to take flash bombs... now I never used them for him
either, but I heard it can be a good defense for his rage mode.
Now once the mission starts, he will be somewhere at the summit (area 6, 7,
or 8). If you took the flash bombs, use them till you get his tail off...
his tail comes off rather easy and reduces his tail sweep range incredibly.
Not for equips... a shield and a thunder weapon will do you good. I prefer
a shield against him in the mountains because sometimes you'll enter an
area... and he'll charge... and you really can't dodge him all the time.
It is extra important to block and not get hit... it isn't uncommon for him
to hit you twice... even three times in a row.
Other than that, make sure you don't try to be a hero when he is mad...
starting by his damaging roar and red veins. If you take damage, never try
to use an item in front of him... unless you are using a Sword and Shield
since you don't need to put it away to eat a potion.
If you want to farm him for his well sought after armors, I suggest
fighting him in the desert... MUCH MUCH easier to handle in the wider areas.

Walkthrough:
First off, like all the "Elder Dragons" this mission randomly appears.
I don't agree with the Elder title... so I will refer to it as a pony from
here on out.
The Kirin is not much bigger than a "Raptor" drome, but is worlds more
annoying. In fact, all I can tell you to do is watch the lightning it
summons to find an opening... looking at my enemy section will show you all
the ways it can come down.
Now for this mission, just make sure to take Hot drinks and pile on as much
lightning defense as possible. Also, when even it's safe, you should aim
for the head... as hitting the body the entire time will actually take a
ridiculous amount of time for its small body size.

Just make sure you aim for one, and don't worry about doing anything
fancy... just use the items you can to make things easier and just wail
on his sides. For the first one, don't worry about getting hit once and a
while... the important thing to do is to take one out quickly.

remember, don't stick around too long if both are in the same area. They
have a large range of areas they can be, so you won't have to look long.
Just go for the head as often as you can to break that crest. Regardless
if you do or not, always attack between his legs to minimize damage to
yourself and maximize damage to him.

Walkthrough:
Did you kill him on the mountains? You did? Ok, there are two differences
in this fight then. Cool drinks instead of hot drinks... and the areas you
fight him in are so much bigger and easier to fight him in.
Although you wont be able to counter attack that often from his charges
(as walls usually won't stop him) you also won't be getting cheap shotted.
You will find him in the two large sand areas (2 and 5 I believe) and when
he gets injured, he will move to area 9 to sleep. I still would highly
recommend putting him in the sleeper hold (shock trap, then tranq bombs)
because that area is small. Just make sure you kill those annoying brown
dinos in that area before you wake them up... I actually missed the timing
on the second tranq bomb because one them head butted me... great times.

Even in the relative calm of the swamp zone, something has stirred up the
monsters. In particular, heavily armored wyverns have been attacking us.
Can you help us out?
Walkthrough:
Well take what you know about the regular Gravios from the other mission...
place it in one where you don't need drinks and don't have to worry about
him running into lava... that's a good thing right?
Nope... it's raining out. So not only don't you have those extra free hit
explosion hits from the volcanic rocks... but YOU CAN'T USE BOMBS!
Although you can use lightning rods... they don't seem all that great...
so if you are using melee weapons, expect this mission to take EXTRA LONG...
there is a good chance you'll be hitting the "Hurry the hell up there is
just 10 minutes left" mark... I think that's what it says :P
Or you could make a fancy water bow... I did the Gathering hall mission
with a bow... forget the name... but if you see him going to area 4, try to
get to the area 2 exit so you are on the ledge... YOU CAN GET BIG FREE
DAMAGE HERE.
Now, when I say big free damage... I'm talking I put at least 5 minutes
worth of about 500 arrows... probably a lot more... but you get the point.
If you do get lucky like that, make sure you stand at the edge of the area
4/2 border so you don't get hit by the beam... I'm not entirely sure what
the enemies where in that area... but I some how remember congas and
Vespoids.
Now assuming you still are using that bow, if you are down on ground level
with him, it's much easier to break his chest plate... once you do, try
your best to hit it. The bad thing about that bow is that it shoots
multiple shots if you don't charge it... and I can assume that individually
they don't do a lot of damage... so charge up when going of the chest.
Keep in mind, I DO NOT CLAIM I KNOW HOW TO USE A BOW... I simply did it
once for a Gravios + Raining Swamp mission.
If you do plan on going for melee, do your best to hit him ALL THE TIME.
You REALLY need to capitalize during every time you could... like during
his beam attack. Don't forget to hit his wings during any of his fart attack.
For more help, either scroll down two mission to the regular Gravios fight
or the enemy section for some pointers.
(The bow is actually the Daimyo's Warbow III... just so you know it takes
a few Lobster Shells to make... which means you get to fight your friend
the Plessy!)

Quest Details:
A fearsome Gravios has appeared amidst the magma and desolation of the
Volcanic Belt. Hunt down the fire breather for us!
Walkthrough:
Remember the Basarios? Well hopefully you remember how to fight him...
since this thing will use the SAME exact moves... besides that, his beam
always comes out.
Oh... and did I forget to mention that it's about twice the size? It makes
him difficult because of this. Now a lot of people suggest using a hammer...
but I can't. A bow (water bow, Daimyo Warbow III) could be good since he
is easy to stay away from and it solves the question on how to reach his
tender belly that's up so high.
If you use a melee weapon, you really need to crunch in the damage to make
sure you don't run out of time. The sharper the weapon, the better. Aim for
the stomach as much as possible, and once you break the chest plate...
HIT IS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
For items to bring... surprisingly for such a big enemy, you really don't
need to many healing items... but take them just incase, because you will
get sloppy at the end when trying to deal the final blow. Make sure to take
a few cool drinks, whetstones, and bombs if you don't think you'll do a lot
of damage. The bombs should be used in the same manner as those volcanic
rocks... BAIT him into them.
This is a VERY good way to whittle away that chest plate... but I can't
stress enough on how much you need to focus on hitting it.
If you see him limping, don't be afraid to use a shock trap and tranq bombs
to end it even faster.

swoop in when you least expect it.
The good news is that you actually have to kill them... as they are more
dangerous when you aren't paying attention. Just grab your favorite weapon
and hit them in the tail while they fly... sometimes you'll knock them down
for a nice "lol".
There should be a couple before the tower entrance, several in both the

Client: Scarlet Mystery Man (or Elder Dragon Scholar)
Quest Details:
Near the forbidden ancient tower, the Lunastra, empress of the elder
dragons, is building a nest. Hunters! Who among you can defeat this ancient
beast!? Exhibit your true skills!
(or We've received a communique from headquarters. An elder dragon has
appeared in the Volcanic Belt. Fight the dragon and collect data on its
behavior!)
Walkthrough:
First off, you will usually fight her in the volcano area first... which is
good since it will make you familiar with her moves.
I choose to write her strategy based in the tower. The reason the tower is
much different is for one giant reason... YOU CAN NOT LEAVE THE TOP AREA!
The only exceptions are if you are dead. So obviously anything that will
work for the tower will work for the volcano.
Now you'll need these items... A dragon based weapon (trust me, it's worth
it), fire resist if possible, whetstones, a lot of healing,
Mega armor skins/demon drugs, a max potion, and a meat (Or just an ancient
potion). The immunizer is also a good choice, but that's in the chest.
Ok, the idea is to go all the way to the top of the tower... and use all
your items there... so you have a more
attack/defense/life/stamina/regeneration.
This may seem steep (Hell I didn't even know about armor skins and demon
drugs before I did this mission :( ) but since you can't leave the area
till the mission is over or if you die, you don't want to be using a lot of
items.
In the event you do want to use an item, use them at mid range when she
does that fire burst/explosion attack. You can safely eat Mega Potions and
even sharpen!
For actually fighting her you'll want to only attack her when you can aim
for the Crown. This is what the dragon weapon is for... to break it a lot
quicker. Now, if you broke it in the volcano, that's awesome... but if you
killed her in the volcano, and this mission popped out first, you are going
to have some fun!
Since you'll be taking continual damage and can't really get in a safe
spot... you can expect some really annoying situations.
Now like I will always say... go for the Crown and don't worry about
cutting off the tail till you're second time going through the mission
since she has to be at low health in order to do so.
These things also work for Teostra, so refer to this mission or her
strategy in the enemy section for him as well.

~Towards the Silence (or The Elder Dragon of Mist)
Type ------- Slaying Quest
Reward ----- 5100z/850z
Time Limit - 50 Minutes

Main Monsters:
Chameleos
Special Conditions:
No
Quest Level: *****
Goal Condition:
Slay the Chameleos
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Grim Aristocrat (or Injured Hero)
Quest Details:
It seems an unknown elder dragon has appeared in the swamp zone. However,
no one truly got a clear look at it. What could the beast have been? Slay
it, but proceed with caution!
(or Our intuition told us to turn around, but we thought no one was
there... Yet even though no once should've been there, we were attacked
from behind! Beware! It was an enemy never before seen!)
Walkthrough:
I'm just first off saying... this guy is easy as pie. But he can be really
annoying if you don't have the right gear. You have to make a choice first
and foremost:
Do you want parts of him or just the kill?
If you want just the kill, like I usually go for when dealing with him,
you'll need one thing: Auto-Tracker. It won't show where he is in an area,
but it will show you what area he is in. Hopefully you kill the Tigrex
enough times to make some of his armor combined with Psychic Jewels to get
+15 in psychic vision. Once you know what area he is in, all you have to is
wait for some clue to find him.
Usually it's his tail thumping attack, so look for dust circles. Once you
do locate him, hammer on sides as much as possible. His only really defense
he has is a rarely done poison move... so you'll need to bring antidotes.
Also you'll need a sharp weapon and a lot of whetstones to keep up the
damage as he has hard skin.
That's pretty much all you have to do for a repel at 25 minutes or possibly
the kill.
Now if you want to cut his tail or break his horn, you may need a
paralyzing weapon and a few sonic bombs. Use the sonic bombs when he is
attacking to make them work.
Now he does actually attack you once the battle music appears... and
although he attacks and moves more often, he's easier to find do to the
green breaths he will take. But the goal still remains the same... attack
his sides.
You usually fight him in the Forest and Hills first... but nothing really
changes.
I recently found out that once his cloak is off, you will not bounce off
that much. You keep that in mind.

~Elder Rank 5-6 Intermission
The only thing I *know* you can unlock at this point is a few harder
enemies... not sure which ones, but I heard it involves killing 2 of each
enemy. Unfortunately I only need to kill one my Teostra before my PSP
broke... so can't give you too much input on those.
These missions are the hardest of the elder missions, and might take a few
times to complete. If you have trouble with them, don't be afraid to move
on to the Gathering Hall to get yourself some better equips or simply more
experience onto how to play.
*I did find out that you will unlock the Gaint Gen Crab if you kill 2 of
each enemy. If you kill him in this mission, you will get to try your
luck at the Dual Rajang fight... I will update this section once I get
a new PSP.*

~A Troublesome Pair
Type ------- Hunting Quest
Reward ----- 8400z/1400z
Time Limit - 50 Minutes
Location --- Forest & Hills
Main Monsters:
Rathalos

Special Conditions:
No
Quest Level: ******
Goal Condition:
Hunt the Rathalos and Rathian
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Pokke Village Chief
Quest Details:
A pair of fire wyverns have taken up residence in the hillside. If you are
able to hunt them by yourself, you are truly a top class hunter. Care to try
your luck?
Walkthrough:
Ok, before going into this mission, you may want to take the mission in the
gathering hall dealing with just the Rathalos. He has a few cheap attack
you need to get yourself orientated with. Such as his reverse flying fire
ball, learning to ALWAYS stand in his shadow, and his charge... it also
helps to learn how to cut his tail.
Now the Rathian isn't too hard... she is much like the Yian Garuga, in
fact they have pretty much the moves... the only difference besides size is
that the Rathian doesn't have any really hard bounce off spots and spins
in both directions.
Now back to the mission at hand. You need to take out the Rathalos first...
he's harder and once you do, it should be smooth sailing from there in on.
Like most other dual bosses fight mission, YOU DO NOT WANT THEM IN THE SAME
AREA. The Rathalos mainly is seen in 2, 3, 4, and 6. I usually find the
Rathian in 4, 5, and 9.
This means ALWAYS watch out for the Rathian coming into to the area while
in 4... it's about the only spot I see them together.
For actually killing the Rathalos, you should first start by getting off
his tail. If you are using my enemy section way below and attacking it at
the times I say something like "Great time to attack his tail". It shouldn't
take long.
Once that is off, you can hit his sides a bit better... YOU NEVER WANT TO
ATTACK HIS FRONT because of that charge. The only time you should really be
attacking his front if he falls over or does that bite attack.
For items to bring, LOTS of potions (max potion isn't needed... but you may
want to consider it), meat, a shock trap or two (Genprey Fang + Trap Tool),
mayby an antidote... but you shouldn't need them if you play it safe, and
flash bombs if you don't think you'll kill that Rathalos quick enough.
Again, if you practice on him in the gathering hall and could actually kill
that one, this one shouldn't be too hard. In fact, he will die rather easy.
Once he is out of the way, it's off to the Rathian... which is by far
easier. Good luck and remember, one of the keys to this fight... and
pretty much all the harder missions to come is to not get hit and hit
them when they can't hit you back. You can't take many charges... hell two
in a row not only does a ton of damage, but with most likely stun you too.

~Dual Plesioth

Plesioth

Special Conditions:

Quest Level: ******

Hunt the Plesioth and Green Plesioth
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Lovely Princess
Quest Details:
The water wyvern known as Plesioth is raging in the jungle. And not just
one of them! Head off immediately to slay them!
Walkthrough:
Now, I hate the Plessy... but I love this mission! Don't let people on the
message boards scare you about this mission... it actually doesn't matter
where the other one is... either on land with you or in the water.
Now before we get into strategies, you'll need some items. For a weapon, I
did this mission with a lot of time left with just the Kirin Bolt Indra
(The thunder weapon that uses no actual Kirin body parts). I didn't need
special armor, but if you can't pay attention to the both Plessies, make
sure to take water resistant armor.
For actual item items... take lots of healing, some meat, 3 shock traps
(1 actual shocker, then 2 trap tools + 2 Genprey Fangs), and 30 Sonic bombs
(10 actual sonics, 20 screamer + 20 Gunpowder). Don't forget book of combos
as well.
Now personally, I didn't use a shock trap at all and only used 12 Sonic
bombs (10 of my own and 2 from the chest). Only one frog is needed as once
you piss them both off, it's kind of pointless to wait till they BOTH lose
their attention in you.
Know your goal is to always have a Plessy out of the water... the good news
with having two of them, you'll have something to whack at the majority of
the time instead of waiting. Now if one leaves the area, he won't be coming
back for a while, so focus on the other one.
If one is in the water and one is on land, risk going close and attack the
legs from the farthest point from shore to avoid water beams.
You also want to go there to be able to face the shore to spot any vertical
water beams.
Now if both are on land you'll be using my favorite way to kill these guys
(and if you read the enemy section down below, you would know it's to
counter attack ONLY the water beam attack). Since one will be farther away
from you, he'll only do that attack, so going for the cut on the closer one,
always make sure the one behind him isn't doing the same thing.
And of course, if one starts to run away, the good news is you don't have
to follow it... just start attacking the other one.
Good luck and remember to always know where they both are... Auto Tracker
can help, but there are only two areas they can travel too.

Walkthrough:
This mission is a joke if you got to these Urgent Quests in the first
place. The Rathian isn't that dangerous... and the pink one just sports
more health and a faster rage mode.
Again, if you got here in the first place (meaning that you killed both
the Rathalos and the Rathian) this shouldn't be too much of a problem.

I simply can't bear to think about the terror and pain those Diablos are
causing my people. I can't sleep at night with that worry! Hunt down those
2 Diablos for me!
Walkthrough:
In my opinion, the hardest mission in the Elder section "itemless." Not
counting the things you always bring... Hot Drinks, meats, and potions...
I'm talking about the sonic bombs.
You see, this mission is doable without them... it will just come down to
mad luck since one on two is impossible. So, if you want to make things
easier for yourself, you'll need to do 3 things.
1. Take 30 Sonic bombs (10 actual sonics, 20 screamer + 20 Gunpowder).
2. Get the Auto Tracker armor skill (+15 with Psychic Vision).
3. Abuse the hell out of bullfighting (getting their horns stuck)
Now the first thing you have to do is pick a color... the white one is
easier to kill, so go for him... now fight him how you usually would.
If you are in an area where you can get their horns stuck, do that as much
as possible. Now once he goes under ground, pop off a sonic bomb to get in
a bunch of free damage. You can continue this up until he is dead...
just make sure not to use one while he has black breath as it won't work.
Once he is dead, the mission becomes so much easier... you could either
use the rest of your sonic bombs on the other one or kill him the old
fashion way.
Just remember, if you see one surface while fighting the other, GET THE
HELL OUT OF THERE! You do not want to fight two at once... it's too hard.
One funny thing is if one roars while one is under ground, the one from
the underground will pop up as if it was hit with a sonic bomb :D

Nothing really too difficult in this fight. Not only do they have lower
health than the other Shogun's you have fought, but those Volcano/Exploding
rocks can do a lot of damage to them.
Choose what ever weapon you want, but if you use a strong hammer, you'll
most likely keep them in one of those repeating falling loop.
Just make sure to take a few cool drinks incase you need to take your
time... and you usually fight them in the first hot area... so don't be
afraid to run away and take a nap if you get hurt too much...

Walkthrough:
Just like the pink Rathian, this guy shouldn't be too different than the
last time you fought him. The sole difference is that it will like to relax
in area 9 A LOT... and that means it will not only be tough to move around
in, but there are also lots of trees blocking your view.
Once he is out of there, he isn't that hard... but make sure to take extra
care in those tight quarters. The good news is if he does a charge, he
will most likely hit a wall not far from behind you... so you can counter
attack very easily.

Quest Details:
I travel the world for new tastes and flavors. Now I want to try the liver
of a Piscine Wyvern, a taste few others have experienced. Please being me
8 of these livers.
Walkthrough:
If you did the Elder mission and read my walk-through for that one this
should look a bit similar...
Before choosing this mission, I suggest 2 things.
1. Take a Hammer
2. Take a few sonic bombs
Use the sonic bombs if you REALLY can't get them out of the sand with the
hammer. To use the hammer the right way, you'll want to hit them after
their sand spit attack while they poke their head up. If you don't get hit
with their body once they come up, you can run over to where they are and
start pounding the sand...
It usually works. Read them in my enemy section to learn more about this.
Also... the most annoying part... sometimes you might not get the livers
all that often. I can remember I got the scales like 8 times in a row!
If you happen to waste all your sonic bombs and come up short, you can
always "Abandon Quest" and try again. This time there are 8 Livers you need
to get a hold of. So ten Sonic bombs and the ones they give you in the
chest might not be enough... you'll really need to work on using the hammer.
Two more tips to use...
Go to the middle sand area (1), it's smaller and thus easier to catch up to
them. If they aren't there right away, move to five then head back to 1
in a little while.
And finally... kill that damn Gendrome... he will annoy the hell out of
you...
Unlike the easier one in the Elder mission, you need 5 more this time...
so if the hammer isn't your thing, you may want to take a few Sonic Bombs...
about 10 and possibly materials to make more (Screamers + Gun Powder)

Walkthrough:
If you fought this guy in the Elder Missions, you should know what to do
already. Just make sure to bring as many Sonic Bombs as you have and make
good use of the frogs whenever they are unaware of you.
In fact, every time you die, or need to sharpen/heal/use buffing items,
take a while to let him calm down... because the frog is the best way to
deal a lot of free damage.

Client: The Kindly Lord
Quest Details:
I request the assistance of only the bravest of hunters to find and hunt
the Rathalos that has appeared near here. Of course, a handsome reward will
be paid upon success.
Walkthrough:
This is the mission I suggest you practice with in prepping for taking on
the 5 star --> 6 star Elder Urgent Request.
He doesn't have too much health and doesn't do as much damage as the one
in that quest so you can use this as a good practice. They give you flash
bombs and tranq bombs for this mission... I preferred to use this mission
as a way to stock up on tranqs when I also wanted to make the Rathalos armor.
Now although the flash bombs are free to use and you can't keep them,
you still shouldn't use them... remember, practice makes perfect.
Use my enemy strategy to learn how to chop off that tail... and learn how
to circle him to always consistently avoid the charge.
Also learn when you have to roll out of the way of the backward fireball.
Nothing more that I can tell you... you don't really need anything special
to this mission... they give you a lot of good items in the chest.

My caravan was wiped out by the quest of the skies. the killer Rathian!
I'll pay you whatever you ask if you hunt down that foul creature! Help me
kind hunter, you're my only hope!
Walkthrough:
If you can kill the Rathalos... or even just the Garuga, this mission
shouldn't be a problem. Again, with the amount of items you get and the
fact that it is wide open to all of its tender parts with that triple
fireball, it shouldn't be long or hard to take her down.
If you need help with her... you should know by now to look at the
enemy strategies.

Walkthrough:
Same with the mission above, no matter how much stronger these things get,
you can still kill it without getting hit. All you still need to do is hit
and roll when it is about to run at you, that is all.
Also a very quick and easy way to make money.

may want to use caution.
Start by getting him out of sand... either by hitting him while he does
his sand attacks or using a sonic bomb.
Then just bait him into doing that "Tilt his head up sand spit attack"
then attack his neck... he will take massive damage there and you will
kill him in no time.
Remember he will run away to area 7 and nap when injured to the point
of capture.

Walkthrough:
Use the same methods as in the one star version of this mission. Only two
things might give you a problem...
First off you need 10 this time... so you'll either need to be really good
at knocking them out of the sand, or come packed with 34 sonic bombs
(4 in the chest, 10 you can carry in, and the other 20 from combining a
screamer and gunpowder)
The second problem can actually be killing them before they get back
in the ground... but if you are using a strong hammer, you can usually
kill them in 4-5 pounds...

Head to area 6, fish your bait in there... if no fish bite or look like

Walkthrough:
If you have field practice with this guy, it should help you a real lot.
He has a lot of health... and can do good damage if it punches you.
So just like the other ones, you'll want to only attack it after the
belly flop, him falling from the punches, the spray breath attack, and
when he presses out his belly (only on the sides though.)
They give you enough deodorant, so you really don't need to bring your
own... just make sure you have some antidotes in case he has purple breath
or you touch some poison swampland.

Quest Details:
As the representative of the Hunter's Guild, allow me to lay out our
request. We would like you to hunt down the proud ruler of the mountains,
the Blangonga... But you must be prepared.
Walkthrough:
Ok, the first moderately hard hunt quest in the Guild Hall... but only if
you don't know the ins and outs of him yet. If you didn't have much trouble
with him before, you shouldn't have trouble with him now.
He's just a bit stronger and a bit more health... but if you know how to
keep on attacking him, you shouldn't even really notice the big difference.
Using a Fire element weapon will make this fight even quicker... you
also shouldn't need any special items... just the usual healing and
whetstones will do it. I believe they give you thawing agents as well.

Quest Details:
We were exploring a cave near here, but stumbled on this disgusting
blob-like monster! If you can't get rid of that thing, our research is
doomed! Help us!
Walkthrough:
You should all ready know how to fight this beast... just know that is
has a lot of health. Lightning resist isn't that important if you know
how not to get hit... but you may want to start aiming for the head and
neck a lot more to speed things up.
Also, you really have to start making sure you are hitting him as much as
you can while being safe.
Nothing more has changed since the last times you fought him... just
remember he will rest in area 2 once injured.

Walkthrough:
I would just like to point out that my first time doing this mission I ran
out of time... so don't make the same mistakes as me: Take some frogs and
take as many sonic bombs as you can hold (remember you can mix gun powder
and a screamer mid mission to have an additional 20)
Also, it doesn't hurt to take some shock traps to weaken him for capture...
or to capture him any ways... when he is in the shock trap, aim for his
stomach... a lot of damage that way.
Other than that, use the same manner of disposal you have been when
dealing with these guys... either from counter attacking the water jet,
attack his legs, or using a bow.
If you need more help, don't forget to survey the other missions with them
in it or sample the enemy section.

I really don't need to get into this one... you should of taken the other

advance.
How did you do in that one? Did you have more than 10 minutes left? If you
do, do the same thing here. Just keep in mind that the Green Plessy

Walkthrough:
Another easy slaying mission... just wander the desert for these guys,
but don't forget to linger just a bit because they like to come out of the

Walkthrough:
Nothing has changed too much with this bird here... and it's higher health
and damage output will hardly matter if you take a blocking weapon to avoid
that flash and if you break its head crest as quick as possible.
Other than that, still attack between the legs and bring a few antidotes

Well if you do, this mission should be fun.
I don't think you need help fighting them... but for finding them, they
are usually in that grassy area (the one if you leave the cave and there
are a ton of drops) and pretty much the 2 big forest areas to the west of
the map. Circle these areas to find them... because you'll have to make
the 20 cut off.

These little guys are actually fun to find... there is just enough to look
for. Basically start by looking EVERYWHERE. They like to hide under large
red mushroom caps. Simply circle all the areas and you should find them.
You shouldn't have trouble killing them... they aren't strong or hard to
put down.
Have fun with your search... and avoid the Blue Yian Kut-Ku.

In a corner of the volcanic belt, I discovered a great vein of coal in
the rocks. I'd like you to mine the coal, but beware the Shogun Ceanataur!
Take care and get mining!
Walkthrough:
Make sure you take with you all the pick axes you can carry. It's just like
the Elder Mission in which you have to get 15 pieces of coal... but since
you can only carry 10 at a time, you are still only going to need two trips
back and forth.
Any ways, it's not that hard to find coal... you'll get it just about
every time you pick.
Just make sure you avoid the Crab, no need to make an easy mission harder.

Use what you know to kill as many of these guys as possible. You only need
to kill two and they have little health.
I'm pretty sure if you just wait for the "Supplies have been delivered"
sign, you can just deliver the Paw Pass to end the mission regardless of
how many you killed.
This mission should only really be used when you want to farm Crab body

Walkthrough:
I still didn't need Mega Demon Drugs/Armor Skins with A Max Potion... but
you may want to consider using them for this fight as he will do a lot of
damage.
Other than what you already know about the Tigrex, you may want to take
10 flash bombs (You can hold 5 and then make 5 more by mixing) and have 3
shock traps (In the same manner as above). Make sure to save one when he
gets injured so you can use tranq bombs on him and capture him.
Using those items it shouldn't take you long to hurt him... and flashes
work great for when he is in his rage mode.

You can hold quite a few of them if you have both screamers and gunpowder

Client: Swamp Townsman
Quest Details:
Even in the relative calm of the swamp zone, something has stirred up the
monsters. In particular, heavily armored wyverns have been attacking us.
Can you help us out?
Walkthrough:
Well take what you know about the regular Gravios from the other missions...
place it in one where you don't need drinks and don't have to worry about
him running into lava... that's a good thing right?
Nope... it's raining out. So not only don't you have those extra free
explosion hits from the volcanic rocks... but YOU CAN'T USE BOMBS!
Although you can use lightning rods... they don't seem all that great...
so if you are using melee weapons, expect this mission to take EXTRA
LONG... there is a good chance you'll be hitting the "Hurry the hell up
there is just 10 minutes left" mark... I think that's what it says :P
Or you could make a fancy water bow... I did this mission with a bow...
Daimyo's Warbow III... but if you see him going to area 4, try to get to
the area 2 exit so you are on the ledge... YOU CAN GET BIG FREE DAMAGE HERE.
Now, when I say big free damage... I'm talking I put at least 5 minutes
worth of about 500 arrows... probably a lot more... but you get the point.
If you do get lucky like that, make sure you stand at the edge of the
area 4/2 border so you don't get hit by the beam... You might have to
fend off a Vespoid if it gets too close... and if a Conga actually makes
it up there, just leave the area and come back in
Now assuming you still are using that bow, if you are down on ground level
with him, it's much easier to break his chest plate... once you do,
try your best to hit it. The bad thing about that bow is that it shoots
multiple shots if you don't charge it... and I can assume that individually
they don't do a lot of damage... so charge up when going for the chest.
Keep in mind, I DO NOT CLAIM I KNOW HOW TO USE A BOW... I simply did it
once for a Gravios + Raining Swamp mission.
One annoying thing about using a bow is how long it will take to get rid
of regular enemies out of the way. If you are fighting him in ANY area
with a pig/boar make sure to take them out of the way... they will only
make your life harder... in fact, if you don't kill them, I can
guarantee they will do more damage to you than the Gravios
If you do plan on going for melee, do your best to hit him ALL THE TIME.
You REALLY need to capitalize during every time you could... like during
his beam attack. Don't forget to hit his wings during any of his fart
attack.
For more help, scroll down to the enemy section for some pointers.

can use Bombs and those little volcano rocks for extra damage.
This will break off his chest plate a bit quicker allowing you to use
melee a bit more effectively.

Goal Condition:

Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Brave Boys
Quest Details:
Did you here it!? That voice that shook the ground? It even scared the
fearless mercenaries! It must have been the king of the skies! But if
you're a real hunter, it won't be a problem.
Walkthrough:
Hopefully you have some practice with this beast. The number one thing I
can tell you to do is to learn how to cut his tail off, such as when he is
descending from the air.
Since this mission is a bit harder than the rest of them, make sure you
are equipped for your level of play... if you usually don't get hit too
much by him, you can go in "Naked" like I do...
But if he gives you slight problems, don't be afraid to take flash bombs
and max potions.
Nothing as changed too much, but remember he still likes to go to that
skinny area 9 quite often... so cutting off the tail will really help
when fighting him in there.

Walkthrough:
If it follows the same pattern as the Blue Rathalos in the Elder Quests,
this guy should just have a bit more health and move quicker once pissed
off.
Use the same methods as before... but keep in mind he usually is bigger...
so cutting that tail will go a long way.

Walkthrough:
The same Rathian you've fought before... and if you can beat the Rathalos,
you should have no trouble with her. Not only does she have less attacks
and leaves herself open longer with the triple fireball, and you will be
fighting her in a very wide open area... much better than the forest and
hills.
You shouldn't need too much to put her down... just remember not to
stand in front of her too long to avoid that charge... it should be the
only thing that hits you besides a tail turn.

They are a bit stronger, so if you choose, a Max Potion can really help.
Don't forget to bring Flash Bombs if you don't think you'll be able to put

once you kill him, the rest should be easy.

Defend the Fortress from Shen Gaoren

Time Over, Reward Zero, or Defense Zero
Client: Guild Master
Quest Details:
Hmm... This is quite serious. The fort which lies at the heart of our
defenses is under siege by a giant monster. We need your strength to hold
our position!
Walkthrough:
Now I'm not getting too far into this mission... but just remember, if you
go for a "repel" (the Crab will run away) he will only do it if you do
enough damage WHEN TIME IS OUT!
Which means if you don't kill him, the mission is going to take 35 minutes
regardless. If you don't do enough damage, it will destroy the fort and
you will fail.
Now the Crab will rarely attack you... but you can almost ALWAYS attack it.
For items... Healing, but you really shouldn't need to much... but to be
safe, take as much as you want.
Also, take at least a Mega Demon Drug for a lot more damage.
For equips, make sure you have a VERY strong hammer. The one I used was
about 840 Damage raw... I got the repel with that solo (but didn't use a
Demon Drug)
For armor, the two best skills to have are ESP (from fencing) or Anti-Quake
(Not sure what the actually name is... but it will prevent you from
getting off balance.)
Any ways, for the most part, you'll want to attack its belly section
where all the legs are attached to. Do this as much as possible. It
doesn't look like it's hurting it... but it will get the job done.
Also, take Whetstones... you'll definitely need them.
Well good luck, and once you are done, welcome to the G ranked quests!
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
~Gathering Hall Hunter Rank 3-4 Intermission
Well once you kill that Crab in the mission above, you'll finally be at
Hunter Rank 4. This means a few things... but before I get into it,
the first thing you should be doing is upgrading your Pokke Farm.
Carbalite is a very important item in make new weapons... so see what
good weapons need that item. Now it will be in the newest Upgrade for the
mining area and generally any where in missions. It is hard to come by,
but it's worth the time.
Now, you'll need to remake some weapons and armor to keep up with ever
stronger monsters.
Another big difference if the addition of "Drome" enemies along side
other, bigger bosses. Also Thunder Bugs will replace Vespoids most of the
time and you'll start seeing Remobras in places like the Volcano and Jungle.
Another issue are supplies. They don't give you them right from the
start... so you will have to start getting used to taking your own
hot/cold drinks and Meat. You don't need to0 many, since they will get
delivered after a little while.
Although I didn't use them till I fought some monsters in the next rank,
it will be a good idea to always have a Max Potion at the least and
Mega Demon Drugs and Mega Armor Skins. They may be annoying to make,
but they can help you if you don't have very upgraded equipment yet. I
am assuming from this point on, you are.
One last thing, enemies will need to be approached with caution... the
little Yian Kut-Ku can actually kill you now if you just hit it blindly.
So I'm not going to mention it too often, but if you find yourself
getting hit too much by a certain enemy, you really should be circling
it and waiting for an opening. They do start you of easy... but in the
event you need a little help, my enemy strategies will go a bit more
in depth.

If you do decide to use this mission for Pokke Points like me, take all

Except for the rarely seen new tusk gorge attack, this is practically the
same fight as before... only he'll sport much more health.
So instead of attacking his face then rolling out of the way of the
charge, just attack the sides.
If the amount of practice you from have from fighting these guys,
you shouldn't get hit once.

Walkthrough:
If you took the first hunting mission with the Giadrome, you should know
how much of a boost these guys got. Only now there are two of them. Just
please remember not to get careless...
It seems they have a new rapid attack move that can really hurt and most
likely kill you.
They shouldn't be hard to find... they will usually come to you and stick
together. If you are attacking them both at the same time, all you have
to do is focus on one, but only hit it once or twice, then roll out of the
way.
Remember, if you play it safe and only attack their sides after an attack,
you shouldn't get hit.

Client: Uncomfortable Butler
Quest Details:
I've always longed to go hunting in the jungle! However, if a huge monster
appeared, I'd be finished! Maybe you could take out the Daimyo Hermitaur
for me?
Walkthrough:
Nothing has changed, except that it is much stronger now... and since it
has many attacks and like to do them frequently, you can't just tank hits
anymore.
Unless you are using a hammer (which can still knock him down with about
3 attacks in the face), I would suggest only attacking the legs until
it falls down.
If you are attacking the legs, the only attacks you have to look out for
are the sideways claw swipe and the jump attack.
If you need to use an item, you best leave the area, since he is fast and
will usually interrupt you.
Try your best not to take too many repeated hits from this guy, but
if you attack his legs, you should be fine.

Client: Desert Lover
Quest Details:
There appears to be two Gendrome among the pack of Genprey ravaging the
desert. This has caused the Genprey to become frenzied and attack humans.
You must get rid of the leaders!
Walkthrough:
In the same manner as the dual Velocidrome Quest, just take care not to
get too greedy with attacks and avoid taking too many hits.
Always keep your life above half, since if you get hit once and get
paralyzed, you are pretty much done for unless you have good new armor.
They run the same path, so if you are fighting one of them, you will most
likely encounter the other while fighting it. So if you have two of them
at you at once, just take extra care not to get hit... always attack once
and roll to be safe.
If one starts running, attack the one that isn't, as this will give you
a lot of free solo time since the other one will be running around the map.

Client: Desert Millionaire
Quest Details:
A giant sand wyvern has appeared in the desert along with a pack of
Genprey. Forget about the Genprey, but take care of the Cephadrome so
the merchants can return to work!
Walkthrough:
Now you can attack the Gendrome first... but what happened when I did
this mission was...
I would fight the Gendrome in the area where the Cephadrome was... and
then only focus my attention on the Cephadrome once it popped out of the
sand by itself.
Now if you take large amounts of Sonic Bombs, you shouldn't need to do
this... you could just simply kill the Gendrome right off the bat then
murder the Cephadrome.
For actually fighting the Cephadrome... it's just like before... only now
I wouldn't suggest just hitting it repeatedly from the sides... rather
treat it like a little Plesioth... meaning only attack it after its sand
spit attack.
Despite its large size, you'll actually put it down quite fast this way.
Not only that, but it is much safer since he could deal massive damage
to you if you aren't careful.

Quest Details:
I am a true connoisseur of crab cuisine, and as such a connoisseur,
I suspect the Daimyo Hermitaurs found in the desert are incredibly tasty!
One is never enough, so hunt down two!
Walkthrough:
In my opinion, these crabs as easier than the solo one for a good reason.
They have low health... which means less you'll see of their rage modes.
If you take a hammer, it will be no problem killing one under 15 minutes.
Just make sure to bring a lot of healing and hot drinks incase you have to
spend a lot of time running around.
Now it could come down to luck, depending on how much time they spend
together... the good news is they have a large range of areas they can
actually go to.

Walkthrough:
A fun mission for me... it puts you against the two Yian Kut-Ku's on G
rank...
One major difference: You can't treat them as little wyverns anymore...
they actually do decent damage, so you better start playing it safe.
Now, you can take massive amounts of sonic bombs for this mission... but
I would suggest trying the mission without them. Lets face it, if you can't
do this mission without them, I don't know how you plan on doing some of
the harder missions in the next ranking of quests.
The only other tips I can offer besides circling them and waiting for
an opening is to take a few antidotes and never fight them two on one.
Also, the Blue one will go extremely fast once pissed off.

Quest Details:
I asked some hunters to slay a Congalala for me; however, they met defeat

I need your help!
Walkthrough:
Before even going to fight the big Monkey, you'll want to take out the
Bulldrome. He isn't hard or going to take long to kill... but he will
piss you off if you don't.
Now once he is out of the way, make your way to the monkey. He is pretty
much the same as before... You'll want to mainly only attack him once it's
safe, like after many of his attacks.
Make sure you have a lot of healing, antidotes, whetstones, hot drinks,
and deodorant.
This will be a long fight... but don't get sloppy towards the end as he
will kill you. Once he is injured, he will return to the western most
cave to rest.

If you can kill that one in under 30 minutes, you should be good to go...
just make sure you remember the rules:
Always circle the guy, and NEVER fight more than just one. Auto Tracker
Helps a lot in this area. Also I would suggest taking a strong fire weapon

You may also want to capture the first one you injure just to take him out

is different is the appearance of a Bulldrome... which you could easily
take out quick.
In fact, if you can kill a Khezu before, you shouldn't have any trouble
with this one... same moves and all.
Just make sure you have a stronger weapon than before since the last time
you fought him, he has a lot of health. Also make sure to get out of the
way from the shock field and hit his head/neck once he gets up for some
quick damage.
*Note I never actually did this mission*

~Red Shadow on the Swamp *******
Type ------- Hunting Quest
Reward ----- 7500z/620z
Time Limit - 50 Minutes
Location --- Swamp (Day)
Main Monsters:
Red Khezu
Special Conditions:
HR 4 Or Above Only
Quest Level: *******
Goal Condition:
Hunt the Red Khezu
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Uncomfortable Butler
Quest Details:
I've always longed to venture into the swamp! I think I could hunt down a
Kelbi, but I could never fight a wyvern. Maybe you'd take care of this
special monster for me...
Walkthrough:
Nothing much as changed with this Khezu... although he is much stronger
than before, he can't really add up damage quick enough to kill you...
in other words, even if you get damaged a lot, there is a good chance you
could easily run away and heal up.
But you still can't screw around with him in rage mode... which means
either you are going to have to have Ear Plugs to avoid his roar, or
learn how to block it.
This is because he can keep you in a combo of getting hit with it...
one roar... free hit... then he can do that shock crap right over you.
Make sure you have a strong weapon and keep up the attacks because he does
have A LOT of health.
Likewise, if you killed him before, he shouldn't be much of a problem
now... just take care.

Client: Poisoned Soldier
Quest Details:
*cough* While I was practicing in the jungle, I was attacked by two poison
wyverns! You can see their thick poison gas before your very eyes....
They are tough, please defeat them! *cough*
Walkthrough:
They really don't get too much harder than before... if you can
block/destroy the head crest fast enough, you'll be good.
Just do the usual and attack safely between the legs and you'll do just
fine.
Of course, take a few antidotes to help you out and never fight both at
the same time.

Green Plesioth
Special Conditions:

Fail Condition:
Reward Zero

Client: Lovely Princess
Quest Details:
The water wyvern known as Plesioth is raging in the jungle. And not just
one of them! Head off immediately to slay them!
Walkthrough:
Although I never did this mission, I can't say it differs much from the
Dual one the Elder gives out, besides the obvious health and damage buffs.
I didn't do it because I hate fighting the Plesioths, and you don't need
to even do this mission.
If you do take this mission, make sure you are fully decked out with
Sonic Bombs and items to make them.
I don't think a bow would be a bad idea either... just make sure you try
to kill them above land.

Goal Condition:
Hunt the Rathian
Fail Condition:

Client: Caravan Leader
Quest Details:
My caravan was wiped out by the queen of the skies, the killer Rathian!
I'll pay you whatever you ask if you hunt down that foul creatures!
Help me kind hunter, you're my only hope.
Walkthrough:
If you already know how to fight it from previous missions, this one
shouldn't give you too much trouble.
Just make sure you have you're circling at a good enough level that you
never get hit by the charge... it hurts and if you get hit with it right
after another attack you'll most likely get stunned.
So for best results, take off the tail, then attack the sides. NEVER
attack head on if it isn't already doing something else... the charge
comes out of nowhere and it will hurt.

Client: Proud Hunter
Quest Details:
I found a giant water wyvern in a cave in the desert! I can't defeat it
because it stays underwater. Slay it for me and the glory is all yours!
Walkthrough:
Just like all Plesioth mission down below. The only difference is that
instead of one drome in the way, this quest will have many smaller/annoying
enemies to look out for.
Look to the mission below for more tips... or just any other Plessy
mission/enemy strategy.
I would recommend killing the Green on first in the mission below, as they
are about the same AND you need to kill that one to advance in the
Hunter Ranks.

~The Underwater Terror *******
Type ------- Hunting Quest
Reward ----- 7500z/620z
Time Limit - 50 Minutes
Location --- Desert (Day)
Main Monsters:
Green Plesioth
Gendrome
Special Conditions:
HR 4 Or Above Only
Quest Level: *******
Goal Condition:
Hunt the Green Plesioth
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: The Old Misanthrope
Quest Details:
The lake underneath the desert is connected to an underground river and
patrolled by a green-scaled water wyvern... If you are truly a hunter,
then it should pose no problem.
Walkthrough:
Now, before entering this fight, make sure you have hot drinks, demon drugs,
sonic bombs (and gunpowder + screamers), lots of healing, a couple frogs,
and shock traps (and Genprey fangs + trap tools)
Before even going to knock him out of the water, the Gendrome MUST die.
He will piss you off really bad... especially if you are using a bow.
With him out of the way, and hopefully you get him with in 5-7 minutes,
you'll need to work on the main goal.
Now you will be in good shape if he didn't notice you yet and get to use
a frog. Start by doing that. Once he is out, try your best to attack him
a lot.
He will get up... now you should play it safe and bait him to doing that
water beam attack (If you go to my enemy section I have a more detailed
idea onto how), while playing it safe only attacking him when he does that.
It is too risky to go up close... the hip check has too big of a range and
it damages all too much. Also his spin around attack is just as deadly.
Hopefully you'll get in a lot of damage before he runs away. KEEP IN MIND
ON TO WHERE HE RUNS TO, TO JUMP BACK INTO THE WATER.
Now, use your sonic bombs to get him out, and make sure you have a shock
trap placed somewhere like in this picture...
W W W || X = Shock Trap
|| Y = You
A A A || Z = Him
||
T T T || <--X-----Y-------Z
||
E E E || The dotted line is his path to escape to water... while you are
|| baiting him to do the laser and getting in whatever attacks you
R R R || can, he will eventually run away... either wait till he runs back,
or if you are low on health, just stand behind your trap.
Once you get him stuck, wail on his stomach as much as you can. If you do
this with all three shock traps, you'll have a good chance at killing him
even with weak weapons (like my Sword and Shield).
If you happen to die, and if you took in an armor set with Auto Tracker,
you'll be able to see when he is calm... to use another frog.
Just take care not to get hit too much by his physical attacks and keep up
the constant damage to his neck when he does that water move.
You don't want to miss an opportunity to get in damage due to him always
returning to the water.

~An Evening Soaked in Poison *******
Type ------- Hunting Quest
Reward ----- 6000z/500z
Time Limit - 50 Minutes
Location --- Swamp (Night)
Main Monsters:
Iodrome
Bulldrome
Special Conditions:
HR 4 Or Above Only
Quest Level: *******
Goal Condition:
Hunt the Iodrome
Fail Condition:
Reward Zero
Time Over
Client: Mercenary Officer
Quest Details:
The swamp's poison is mixing with the Iodrome's poison... It is a terrible
scene! We need a professional hunter to assist us... Show us your skills!
Walkthrough:
This mission sports the strongest "Raptor" in the game. He's usually
bigger, and can really hurt you if you take too many hits.
Before you go for him, take the Bulldrome out first. You probably will end
up with both of them at once... but you really can't mess with them two on
one... nor is this mission worth the use of Flash Bombs.
Regardless, once you get the bull out of the way, it will just be you and
the Iodrome. Just remember he has a lot more health than all of the other
Raptors... and if you are like me and use a Sword and Shield, you might
think to yourself "Do I suck this bad?"
No, he just has too much health for how big he is. Also, make sure you
aren't trading blows, you won't win. Attack the sides until he turns to
you, then roll out of the way.

Quest Details:
Hunters! It is time to hunt down the Shogun Ceanataur. Let us rid the swamp
zone of this menace and expand our strategic possibilities. This is a
highly classified hunt. So don't tell a soul!
Walkthrough:
Treat him how you did the other G ranked Crabby. Attack his sides if you
aren't using a hammer and hope for as many fall downs as you can get.
Never go toe to toe with him... you'll only get hit down to when you have
to heal... then end up dieing while you trying to retreat.
Play it safe... unless you are one area away from the starting bed... if
you want to cheese and use that to your advantage, you can THEN go toe to
toe with him.
When he goes into his rage mode, make sure you dodge those charging
attacks the best you can... if you think you'll get hit BLOCK!

Quest Details:
I saw a gigantic bird-like monster deep in the swamp! It scared everyone
so bad that I can't do business with a thing like that out there!
Please hunt it down so I can work in peace!
Walkthrough:
Nothing really as changed too much... I still consider this one the
easiest wyverns... not even G rank makes him that scary.
True he can still get you with cheap shots with his tail, but if you stay
under him the majority of the time whacking his legs, you usually won't
get hit.
Just take a weapon that can block and antidote. Once you break the head
crest he will be the easiest enemy.

Quest Details:
I request the assistance of only the bravest of hunters to find and hunt
the Rathalos that has appeared near here. Of course, a handsome reward will
be paid upon success.
Walkthrough:
Just like the Rathian mission above, he is the same only with more health
and a lot stronger.
Fight it how you usually did. If you can get it without the use of
Flash bombs before, you don't need to start using them now.
Make sure you rarely get hit with that charge... everything else can be
easily avoided and countered... but the charge will come out of nowhere.
Make sure you remember to hug his shadow if he flies up... use an item
if you need to do, then try to hit his tail when he comes back down.

Walkthrough:
If you did the other Shogun mission... this one just has two with lower
health.
You can do a lot of damage to them if you let them run into those large
Volcanic rocks... and will make this mission very easy.
Also if you use a hammer, you can get a lot of reward items. If you need
more help with this mission, I can tell that you are too aggressive.

If you faired well against the other Basarios in the lower ranked quests,
this one shouldn't be too hard.
Make sure to use all those Volcanic rocks to help break open that chest
plate of his.
But again, if you did well against him before, you shouldn't have any
trouble... since he has easy to dodge attacks AND you can use items with
little fear.
Just make sure you know he has a lot of health so you are really going
to need to hammer that open chest.

for those pretty flying wyverns.
Nothing too hard... just make sure you have some Whetstones since you will

keep attacking.

Special Conditions:
HR 4 Or Above Only
Quest Level: *******
Goal Condition:
Defend the Fortress from Lao-Shan Lung
Fail Condition:
Time Over, Reward Zone, or Defense Zero
Client: Guild Master
Quest Details:
It seems that once again our land is in crisis. The giant elder dragon
Lao-Shan Lung is approaching the village from the mountains. Head to the
fort and defend out way of life!
Walkthrough:
First thing to realize, is this mission is a 35 minutes bore fest...
especially if you did it solo like me. And I can bet if you are reading
this, you actually came here to look for it. In fact, I can honestly say
that this is the first mission that actually gave me trouble... but not
because of me dieing... but because of the race against time.
Now, this is probably going to be the most detailed strategy here...
and mostly because I jotted it down.
First and form most, equipment. All of it is generally easy to make...
War Stamp (Hammer, Rare 6/Socket with an Attack Jewel)
Rathalos Helm (Rare 4/Socket with an Attack Jewel)
Hornet Mail U (Rare 7/Socket with two Attack Jewels)
Hornet Vambraces U (Rare 7/Socket with two Attack Jewels)
Rathalos Tasset (Rare 4/Socket with an Attack Jewel)
Rathalos Soul Greaves (Rare 5/Socket with two Attack Jewels)
This will get you a large attack up with an already strong weapon. Also,
consider using the cat kitchen to boost it even farther as well as making
sure it is all at max defense.
For items...
01X Book of Combos 1
01X Book of Combos 2
01X Book of Combos 3
01X Book of Combos 4
10X Potion
10X Mega Potion
01X Mega Demon Drug (3X If you plan on dieing)
01X Mega Armor Skin (3X If you plan on dieing)
01X Max Potion (2X If you plan on dieing)
10X Gunpowder
01X Power Charm
01X Armor Charm
06X Well-Done Steak
04X Bomb Material
10X Large Barrel
03X Lg Barrel-Bomb
02X Lg Barrel-Bomb+
20X Whetstone
04X Exciteshroom
99X Stones/Paintballs (As many as you have, it's over kill... though)
10X Scatterfish
--- 10X Herbs (If plan on getting hit too much)
--- 1X Ancient Potion (If you plan on dieing)
---
Now, that leaves you with 3 free items... as the final items are only if
you think you'll die. (Ancient Potion is to get your health to 150 in
case you die a second time.)
*Assuming you took just the original qualities I listed*
Now once you get in the stage, eat the max potion, a meat, and both of your
mega drugs. This will open up six spots. Then make a farcaster by combined
the Shroom and Bomb Material. This will put you to five spots.
Go to the chest and grab what ever you want... you really don't need a
map, since it is easy to locate everything... paint isn't that important...
you have enough whetstones... the anti dragon bomb isn't part of my
strategy... just make sure you take the First Aid Kits and the Ammo for the
Ballista.
Any ways, rush to the beginning of area 2 where he will slowly make his
way. Hopefully you don't have club foot and make it there WELL before he
shows up.
Now, lay only the two Large Barrel Bomb+ down at the edge of the screen.
You should still have time left, so mix two Scatterfish and two Large
Barrel Bombs (non "+") to keep you stocked in the Large Barrel Bombs+.
Then mix two Large Barrels with Gun Powder to do the same.
The idea is to plant two Large Barrel Bomb+'s, then chuck a stone or paint
ball at them to make them explode, then plant the other two you just made,
and do the same. This is not only for nice big damage, but also for a
safe way to attack his head without getting hurt... and since he takes too
long to get in the area, you may as well get some free damage in.
Now once you do that, you should be able to get underneath him. You'll
want to aim for the belly where it kind of hangs down a bit. Now just
triple pound him till he is about to leave the area. I suppose you can
use the anti dragon bomb ON him or get some carves in, but you really
shouldn't bother with it as you can get enough damage in by just avoiding
going on the back in the first place.
Now, the reason I have you make a farcaster is because the most likely time
he will hurt you, is when he leaves the area... the tail will most likely
hit you... so use a farcaster to bounce out of there. It will also allow
you to get a jump start in the next area to set up more bombs just like
before.
Repeat the above four paragraphs for area 3, 4, and 5. Once you are out of
bombs in area 5, hit him a few more times till he is about half way to the
castle gates.
Then use your last farcaster to run all the way back to the top (no point
risking the long ladder only to fall down it). Use the Ballista ammo and
try to hit him... then stay up there for a nice dragonator hit. It is
absolutely important you hit him with that.
Once you are out of ammo, jump back down and continue you to triple pound
his belly. It should be good enough to make him run away... and if you are
lucky, he might die.
Make sure you sharpen when needed... and every time you enter the safe
area. As well as heal via the bed before dipping into your Mega Potions.
Also keep your stamina at max, you never know when you'll have to run.
This should get you a repel with this strategy... I'm not sure if it will
get you a kill... but just keep in mind I didn't use Mega Demon Drugs.

I only attempted this mission 3 times before I gave up (well forced to
rather... kind of hard to play a PSP when it falls out of your hand into
a wall :P).
Any ways, all the attempts where made with the Kirin Bolt (Blade?) Ultimus.
I can tell you it just didn't happen... here is what I had.
01X Book of Combos 1
01X Book of Combos 2

02X Trap Tool
01X Shock Trap
20X Whetstone
10X Herb
05X Flashbug
02X Genprey Fang
03X Psychoserum
Regardless, it's not that I was getting killed... it was just that I
couldn't kill them in time due to them always being in the same area.
When I get back to work in the spring I should have enough free $ to get
another PSP... so this will be the first mission I work on.
I'm going to try it using a Great Sword the next time... I've seen many
videos in which the person would do a charge swing while it was turning
(into it). Good luck... and hope my FAQ helped you at least get this far.

There are a lot of enemies in this game, and this section will,
in detail explain them all the best I can. From Drops/Carves/attacks/
weakness and more. This is how I will describe them all and what I mean
by everything.
Type: The species the game puts the beast in.
Bio: The description the game gives the monster.
My description:
Miscellaneous things I have to say about the monster that just don’t fit
anywhere else. Such has where to find it, and difficulty problems.
Breaking/Cutting:
What you can break/cut off and the best times and attacks to do so.
Attacks:
A list of things the enemy does and how to capitalize with the proper
counter attacks. I will also list damage via “stars”. * = You’ll shake
it off/********** = You better avoid this at all costs.
Weaknesses:
Every boss has weaknesses, from what type of weapon you use
(Swords cut and Hammers smash {Lances do both, but the game selects the
best for you}), to elemental weaknesses, and where to actually hit the
monster. They will be denoted by stars just like the above. Naturally
I’m not going to bother listing the weakness for little enemies...
Carves:
Items that you can get from carving. Please note “G” would mean anything
from HR4 missions and above. The more stars, the rarer the treasure.
Thus something with four stars you’ll see many more times than something
with ten. Generally ten stars notes the chance of getting the item is less
than 9%.
Capture:
Items that you can get from capturing the best. The “G” rule still applies.
The more stars, the rarer the treasure.
Rewards:
Items that you get from breaking horns, claws, and shells. Again the “G”
rule applies. The more stars, the rarer the treasure. You get these upon
ONLY completion of the missions... But just so you know, you don’t have
to kill the monster in question (If the monster is the target, you have to
kill it any ways.).
Shiny Drops:
Shiny items are items that drop when special conditions are met. Not only
do they make a distinct audio clues but you can see the white gleam
flicker. Please be warned that they do not last forever and may not be
there if you exit and re-enter. I’m not 100% sure on this, but you can get
as many shiny drops AS long as you don’t pick them up... So in essence
you can only pick up one per monster. Don’t worry too much as the majority
of the items are just for money/Pokke points. The more stars, the rarer the
treasure. Oh, and the “G” rule.

~Felyne
Type: Lynian
Bio: Cat-like humanoids called Lynians that are noted for their white fur.
Felynes are quiet until angered, in which case they may attack. Capable
of speech, they are sometimes found in the employ of human masters.
My description:
The less annoying cat. This one you really don't need to bother with for
the most part. They won't die, rather borrow into the ground retreating
once damaged.
They will die in one to two hits from almost anything. You can even kick
them to death pretty easily.
Attacks:
Bomb Toss * ----------------------------------------------------------
A rather harmless attack and one that is easily avoided. Once they have it
above their heads you can either run like a bitch or simple close the
distance. Chances are it won't hit so don't worry too much.

~Melynx
Type: Lynian
Bio: Cat-like humanoids called Lynians with black fur. Their sticky-fingers
never miss a chance to steal things and take them back to their den,
forcing victims to seek out their lost items. Distracted by the sight
of Felvine.
My description:
The more annoying of the two cats, yet the one that drops all the pretty
Pokke Point items. Want to know why they are annoying? They will hop
towards you, steal your gear, THEN taunt you feet away with that annoying
purr and side to side hop.
Now, to get the item back, you'll want to kill it. If it does actually run
away with it, make sure to find the place it takes it to in the map.
Once it grabs something off you make him your target because you'll only
have a couple of moments to act. When dealing with more than one you'll
quickly become overwhelmed/raped by kitties.
Killing them is no problem, it's just that once they hit you, you fall down,
and then others can hit you once you get up. I prefer to kill them all the
time... it's a win/win for me a quick 100 Pokke points and take out another
annoying cat.
I wouldn't go as far was saying use anti-theft on armor slots to avoid
the stealing, but if you carry Felvine, a cheap to buy plant, they will
for that instead.
Otherwise, make sure you aren't carrying anything expensive if you are
low on cash... I lost too many BBQ sets.
Breaking/Cutting:

Attacks:
Sticky Fingers (Theft) ------------------------------------------------
An attack that does no damage rather steals a random item from your
backpack. To avoid this, you literally have to run (weapon put away) away
from them. They are quite quick for how small they are.
If you choose to fight and not run, it is important to get the first hit
in, other wise they home right toward you and get your goodies.

~Shakalaka
Type: Lynian
Bio: A small, four-limbed monster known for always wearing a mask.
Their camouflage-like qualities make them difficult to spot, but if you
do, you’re in trouble! Their leader, the King Shakalaka, is known to
wear a crown like object.
My description:
Little pumpkin warriors with giant knives. More often than not you'll be
looking for them. Usually hidden under mushrooms and other objects found
in levels, if you want them to come out, move next to them.
Usually found in G ranked levels, so if you don't see them till then,
don't think you're unlucky.
Apparently there is a "king" version of this enemy... now I do a lot of
drugs and I'm not sure if I killed him or not... I did get a Shakalaka
Inheritance somewhere though. Try going in the Forest and Hills Shakalaka
mission and kill a bunch of them to see if he comes out.
They will run away into the ground once injured, just carve the pumpkin
head they leave.
They are more of a nuisance than a threat.
Although if you let them combo you, it can actually add up. So if you
want to minimize damage, wait till after they attack then pound it dead.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Jump Slash ** --------------------------------------------------------
A pretty easy to avoid attack even though it comes out with little
warning. It will simply lunge forward, cleaver in hand. If you see him
pointing towards you just roll out of the way. Attack once he's done.
Hack and Slash * -----------------------------------------------------
The little F'er will just waltz while swinging his cleaver side to side
like a maniac AND make cute little noises at the same time! If you can
kill these things in one-two hits with a stronger weapon, you don't need
to worry about this as much as someone who can't... As if you are
attacking it (usually underestimating it's strength due to small size) it
can really go toe-to-toe since it won't stop till it dies or loses you
after it's 2nd or 3rd miss.
If you see him do this, just dodge to the left or right and attack his
back. With any weapon, it's usually enough time to kill him.

~Vespoid
Type: Nptron
Bio: A enormous, wasp-like insectoid with a poisonous stinger that
paralyzes prey. Easily damaged, there are rarely any usable materials
left to harvest from them once killed.
My description:
I can really dig this guys name :P
Ok seriously, this enemy is probably one of the most annoying things in
the game. It will usually only attack you when you aren't looking. These
things can mean death as they can occasionally paralyze you.
They usually die in a one-three hits with anything, and when I say die,
I mean like explode.
Now many players might say use poison gas bombs to kill them so they don't
explode, but I'm telling you it's just easier to make the weakest poison
battle axe... and not sharpen it when it gets dull. This is so you don't
have to worry about supplies and can kill as many as you want. If you
poison many at a time, you can keep track of when they die because they
let out a funny sounding yelp.
Another part I hate about these things... is their numbers! It seems
sometimes that they NEVER stop coming...
One funny part is that they usually get killed accidentally from large
monsters turning... as well as the Khezu, that shock is hilarious when
it explodes them.
Breaking/Cutting:

Attacks:

are rarely any usable materials left to harvest from them once killed.
But if you could sap their Health gradually...
My description:
A large BEETLE-like monster... similar to the Vespy in exploding properties,
yet less annoying since it doesn't just fly to you, rather crawl and hop.
Same poison rules apply to these as the with the Vespoid, so if you want
to carve these things 100% of the time, as apposed to about 5%, you'll
equip a weak poison weapon.
Other than that, they hardly pose a threat... and just kind of die.

Bio: An abnormally large Thunderbug raised inside the body of an elder
dragon and known to inhabit the same areas as its former host, its
electrical attack is deadly. This bug has various uses as material for
crafting weapons and items.
My description:
More annoying than the Vespoid due to it's lack of telegraphed attacks,
it can really ruin days. Hell, some times you can't even climb up a ledge
without these pricks getting in your way. Like the Vespy, they are numerous
where ever present.
The good news is they drop some good items and don't take a lot to put down.

it will turn a redder color. Don't touch it when this happens... but it
might be too late.
If you insist on killing them, attack strongly and right after they turn
back to blue because if you are attacking them, they might turn reddish
with no warning... and bam herpes... I mean paralyze.

Cute wittle deer that like to frolic. Not really a threat and nothing

Aggressive compared to the Aptonoth, hunting them can be a challenge.
Apceros eggs are a valuable guild commodity.
My description:
Probably the most annoying Herby in the game for two reasons:
1. They seem to ALWAYS get in the way and head but you at the worst times.
2. THEY actually take a few hits to kill.
I can't tell you how many times these things either screwed up a
Plessy fishing trip... or when I was Kidnapping a Tiggerx made me waste
some trang bombs...
To kill them, aim for the head and they will fall down, do this once and
leave them to attack the monster at hand, or kill them right off...
just be careful not to get carried away from the main monster.

~Giaprey
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A species of small bird-like carnivores known to inhabit the snowy
mountains. Their white skin is beautiful, but their temperament is not.
They are known to spit ice at hunters, and attack in deadly packs.
My description:
The first actually offensive enemy you'll fight. They aren't that hard but
can annoy you much. Mostly in packs, but you'll see what I mean about
annoying when you fight a bigger monster in the small cave in the mountains.
As with all of the "Raptor" type enemies, there main weakness is their
slow turning speed as they just hop in circles. As long as you are hitting
their sides you won't get hit if you don't get greedy. Hitting their sides
is not only safer, it's also easier since it's a bigger target.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Claw Rush * ----------------------------------------------------------
It will put its two claws in the air and do a short dash, ending with a
little bite. If you just run strait left or right, it will go right by you
and end up wide open. Also, if you don't stand right in front of them and
attack their sides, this should never hit.
Jump Attack ** -------------------------------------------------------
A very inaccurate jumping attack... hell it sometimes stood still and they
would jump right over me. Chances are, this attack will only hit you from
FAR off screen or if you try climbing something. The best way to dodge
this is to simply either stay close to them or not in front of them.
They are left wide open from the back once they miss.
Ice Spit * (Ice) -----------------------------------------------------
It will stand still for a little bit and spit some ice at you. It hardly
does damage and hardly ever hits. It is left open while doing this.

~Giadrome
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: The alpha leader of a pack of Giaprey, the Giadrome sports a beautiful
crest. Larger than a Giaprey, any hunter silly enough to encroach on its
turf will be frozen in a hall of ice.
My description:
Probably the first "boss" you'll fight in the game. It's pretty much the
same as the smaller ones, except the obvious "biggerness." It shouldn't be
feared as it maintains the same easy to dodge attacks and is a bigger target.
As with all of the "Raptor" type enemies, there main weakness is their
slow turning speed as they just hop in circles. As long as you are hitting
their sides you won't get hit if you don't get greedy. Hitting their sides
is not only safer, it's also easier since it's a bigger target. If it is
facing you, ROLL ROLL ROLL ROLL ROLL ROLL!
You can bring Thawing Agents if you really fear being frozen... but once you
learn how to see that attack coming, you won't ever get frozen.
If you are going for the capture, it will pause for a bit, then run away
to another area. Watch out though, if you follow to close, it will appear
behind you when you enter the new area.
Now for those of you using the Swords and Shields type weapons, here is
how I work the attacks.
--> If it does anything BESIDES turn, do a combo starting with the jump
attack. You can do this perpendicular...
@
|<-- (The arrow is the direction you jump, and the @ is the head)
|
You can usually do a full combo, but if it doesn't get stunned and turns
toward you, ROLL ROLL ROLL!
--> If it is facing you and attacks, move a little bit to the left or right
and jump at them at an angle. Try to aim for the back end of them, so they
have to turn quite a bit to actually reach you. Now, MAKE sure you do it at
an angle... if you just even graze it's claws with your elbow, it will
still count as full damage.
@ /
|/
|V
--> If it is turning, wait till it stops.
Now, you may wonder why I'm putting so much work into this strategy...
well it's because you'll need a game plan for the G rank missions when the
things aren't even the targets... they literally hunt you down... and
since they are so easy pre G, you'll most likely get carried away when
attacking.

Pretty much the same has the Giadrome, and just like the two prey version,
it just lacks the spit attack. Just remember that they hunt you... and

Velocidrome Cha Cha ********** ---------------------------------------
Now, I know I like to joke a lot... but this one I can swear I saw. The
first two times I died by these guys in the G ranked quest were total
"That was bullshit" type stuff. This move starts out as the claw swipe...
but it won't stop until you die. I'm not sure if it any other Dromes do
this, if it's just in G rank... or a glitch, but I do know one thing...
it happened twice and don't try it yourself.
It happened when I though I could kill it... and it ended up doing the
same to me. So the lesson should be: You can't damage race Dromes on G rank.

~Gendrome
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: The alpha monster that leads a Genprey pack. They are larger and
have a more prominent crest. Found in the desert, they can paralyze prey
using their toxic fangs and claws.
My description:
Pretty much the same as the Velocidrome, except it's ability to paralyze and
bit more health. Nothing you can't handle if you killed it before.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Claw Rush ** (Can Paralyze)-------------------------------------------
It will put its two claws in the air and do a short dash, ending with a
little bite. If you just run strait left or right, it will go right by
you and end up wide open. Also, if you don't stand right in front of them
and attack their sides, this should never hit.
Jump Attack **** (Can Paralyze)---------------------------------------
A very inaccurate jumping attack... hell it sometimes stood still and they
would jump right over me. Chances are, this attack will only hit you from
FAR off screen or if you try climbing something. The best way to dodge this
is to simply either stay close to them or not in front of them. They are
left wide open from the back once they miss.

~Ioprey
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A vivid red species of small carnivores often found in subtropical
zones. Sacs in their throat contain a powerful poison that slowly drains
the Health of their prey.
My description:
The red version of the Prey Raptors. They sport a lot more health then
their brothers and come with a poison spit. When ever fighting these guys
or even just in an area with them, bring lots of Antidotes just in case,
you never know when they will get a cheap shot in.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Claw Rush * ----------------------------------------------------------
It will put its two claws in the air and do a short dash, ending with a
little bite. If you just run strait left or right, it will go right by you
and end up wide open. Also, if you don't stand right in front of them and
attack their sides, this should never hit.
Jump Attack ** -------------------------------------------------------
A very inaccurate jumping attack... hell it sometimes stood still and
they would jump right over me. Chances are, this attack will only hit you
from FAR off screen or if you try climbing something. The best way to dodge
this is to simply either stay close to them or not in front of them. They
are left wide open from the back once they miss.
Poison Spit * (Can Poison) -------------------------------------------
It will stand still for a little bit and spit some poison at you. It
hardly does damage and hardly ever hits. It is left open while doing this.
Make sure you avoid this at all costs... even though it doesn't last as
long as some poison, it can still do way too much damage for a little enemy.

~Iodrome
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: The alpha monster that leads an Ioprey pack. They are larger and
have a more prominent crest. Found in subtropical zones, they spit a poison
that can sap the life force of prey.
My description:
The last in the Raptor type enemies and the one that sports the most health.
They pretty much do the same things as all the others, so just follow the
same thing I pretty much said about all of others.
Attacks:

~Yian Kut-Ku
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A bird-like wyvern with a huge beak and large ears that splay open
when it is angered. With its sensitive hearing it dislikes loud noises.
It is smaller but faster than other wyverns.
My description:
The Yian Kut-Ku is the first "big" enemy you will face, and largely
considered the enemy to make and break you. If you read my intro at the
top of the Guide, you'll have to start using the circling technique to
have any chance of staying alive.
For the most part, he isn't that hard, just something new to deal with.
I highly recommend getting to know all of its attacks very well because
they all repeat in other wyverns.
You don't really need a certain weapon to kill him, and if you are like
me you'll be using a Sword and Shield. Blocking isn't needed though.
Regardless of what weapon you are using, you have two choices:
You can either circle it COUNTER-CLOCKWISE till it attacks, then counter.
(Read the attack section for a better idea on when)
OR
You can just go all out and attack it on it's heartside to avoid his
constant turning.
Like the bio said for him, if you use Sonic Bombs, it will mess him up.
Also it will make him drop a shiny... which in the beginning is worth
500 Pokke points.
Hang in there and keep attacking, he isn't hard. If you choose to attack
the legs with a slashing weapon, make sure to watch out for the constant
tail... AND always remember to look out for it. If you knock him down,
hack away.
If you are using a hammer type weapon, attack is head. Time it so you
strike AS he turns into it to minimize the chance of getting hit.
When he goes into rage mode (He will have a fire exhale and jump up and
down like a pansy at the start.) you can either wait it out, or just
attack in half quantities. Regardless, MAKE SURE YOU ARE NO WHERE NEXT TO
A CORNER/WALL. If you are, you can easily get pecked to death. They aren't
strong... but they come out in such quick succession that you can stand
up right into it.
When he is weak, he'll be limping a bit and his ears will fold back. If
you are going to capture him, this is the time you should make your move.
Breaking/Cutting:
Ears -----------------------------------------------------------------
Chances are, if you are using a hammer, you'll easily break his face.
If you are using a weaker weapon, such as the sword and shield, it's best
to out turn him, and to just wait. The idea is to aim your jump attack to
wear he will turn into. This way you can hit with a strong attack and then
roll out of the way to not get hit.
The ears don't completely break off, rather crack a bit. Don't forget if
you knock him down, go for the ears if they aren't shattered.
Attacks:
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll get
knocked away. And since this is your first Wyvern, you better get used to
this.
To avoid this attack, it's best to first ONLY attack on his heartside,
since he will always turn clockwise no matter what.
Now, once you are on the side of him, and he looks like he'll keep turning,
it's best to either get away or through his legs. You never want to be at
middle range. So either go to close range on the safe side, or out of his
range. Usually you can roll under the tail, but since his is too low to the
ground, it's safer just to get out of the way.
Bite *** -------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
This is a good attack, as you can attack back as it finishes. By finish,
I mean reach the end of the "C" motion and already bite. Lets say you use
something such as a sword and shield, this is a perfect time to do a jump
attack.
But remember, if he is still in the moving forward motion, it will do
damage and you will look like and idiot.
*Great time to break his ears*
Triple Peck *** ------------------------------------------------------
If you stand in front of him, he may do this. You can take the same
actions as with the Bite move and aim for the head AFTER he is done with
the last peck... OR play it safe and attack his legs.
If you choose to attack his legs, this is a good and safe time to try to
knock him over.
In rage mode, NEVER go for the head during this attack as it will usually
be too quick to hit you.
Also never try to block this attack as the 3 hits will surely get through.
*Great time to break his ears*
Reckless Charge *** --------------------------------------------------
A charge that comes out of literally no where. It has two outcomes...
If he charges and you are close to his heartside, it might stop and do a
bite... otherwise he will run... and fall into the ground, giving wyverns
a bad name. If you are in tight quarters you might be able to attack his
back side before he gets up.
This is why it's important to always circle your enemy... this attack can
mess you up if too many of them actually hit you... even if you block it,
it still will do a little damage.
The good news is that the Yian Kut-Ku is small and this isn't that hard
to dodge even if he has a chance to turn.
Fire Spit **** (Fire) ------------------------------------------------
Anything that comes out of his mouth... It is spit at an upward angle then
comes down. Very easily dodged and never too big of a threat. When you see
him do this, it's a good time to do a jump attack if you are using such a
weapon like the Sword and Shield and happen to be beside him.
One thing to note, he may spit fire while doing a dash while raged. If you
see this happening, he does it left, right, left, right, and so on and so
on. Just wait till he's spit in a certain direction then roll through that
area.
You can also chill right in front of him and block if you want to minimize
potential damage.
*Great time to break his ears*
Sky Tackle ******* ---------------------------------------------------
A deadly attack ESPECIALLY in G ranked quests. If you see him fly...
but not to another area, rather the background... just circling...
YOU SHOULD MOVE TO A DIFFERENT AREA!
An unblockable, VERY hard to dodge attack... not only that, but it's
strong. Again, the best thing to do is leave the area and come back
in once he has landed.

~Blue Yian Kut-Ku
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A bird-like wyvern with a huge beak and large ears that splay open
when it is angered. With its sensitive hearing it dislikes loud noises.
It is smaller but faster than other wyverns.
My description:
This enemy is practically the same as the regular Yian Kut-Ku. If you need
help with this one, just review the other one. I can say this, I noticed
the rage mode for this one is a bit faster, so you can either wait till
it runs out for safety, or attack it ONLY when it does it's bite/falling
dash attacks.
Breaking/Cutting:
Ears -----------------------------------------------------------------
Chances are, if you are using a hammer, you'll easily break his face.
If you are using a weaker weapon, such as the sword and shield, it's best
to out turn him, and to just wait. The idea is to aim your jump attack to

~Yian Garuga
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A breed of Yian Kut-Ku with a hard black shell and a long mane.
Known for its trap avoiding slyness and poison loaded tail, it is a
particularly evil wyvern, so beware!
My description:
It's about the same size and generally the same as a Yian Kut-Ku save a
few differences. One main one is the sheer amount of things you can break
off. You can use pretty much any weapon, and blocking isn't required.
Another big difference is it's got hard skin in many places, and you'll
most likely bounce off all the time. Now you could go as far as getting
Fencing skill points for the "ESP" skill to negate the bouncing... but
this is only an Elder Boss that doesn't appear anywhere else.
Now many people will fight this thing and get owned... don't stress
yourself because you can always come back, as you don't need to kill it
right then and there. Hell, the first time I fought him it took me to
under 2 minutes left... so it will be a long fight.
I would recommend cutting his hard tail off first to minimize damage and
making it easier to avoid his tail. Also, I'm not certain, but it may
reduce or even eliminate the chance of you getting poisoned from tail
hits. With that being said, bring antidotes.
Now, the best time to attack him if after his triple fireball attack...
he leaves himself open for a LONG TIME. With the Yian Kut-Ku, you should
also be attacking his heartside since he only turns one way. If you cut
off his tail, you can easily roll out of the way once turning.
One thing to realize, he goes into a rage mode quite often... you will
hear a very load yell while he jumps up and down like a pansy. When this
happens, I wouldn't recommend waiting it out since time is an issue if you
keep bouncing off of him. Again, the safest time to attack is during his
fire ball attack... AND NEVER stand in front of him due to his run...
and trust me, it will come out quick.
Once you do enough damage he will limp, and if you use a sonic bomb it
might drop a shiny.
Also, you can't use traps on it if it is angry.
To unlock him, you must kill about ten Yian Kut-Ku's.
Breaking/Cutting:
Ears -----------------------------------------------------------------
Chances are, if you are using a hammer, you'll easily break his face.
If you are using a weaker weapon, such as the sword and shield, it's best
to out turn him, and to just wait. The idea is to aim your jump attack to
where he will turn into. This way you can hit with a strong attack and
then roll out of the way to not get hit.
Unlike the Yian Kut-Ku, he will leave himself WAY open during his fireball
attack or during the bite attack, this is the time to attack it.
If he falls down, it's better to aim for the back since it is pretty hard
to break any other way.
Remember, they don't break completely off, rather chip and crack.
Beak -----------------------------------------------------------------
Same as the ears, just hit the head. It won't break completely, but you
will see a large chip.
Wing Claws -----------------------------------------------------------
If using a sword and shield, aim a jump attack toward the front of which
ever wing you'll like to hit. With any other weapon, it shouldn't be hard
to aim high up there.
Unlike most other enemies, it takes a lot to break these.
Back -----------------------------------------------------------------
I'll be honest, I never broke is back that I know off... but I'd imagine
you are better off knocking him down to get a good shot. It would probably
be easier with a hammer.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
A very easy tail to cut, you can get it pretty much anytime since it
usually isn't too high off the ground. During the fireball attack, it will
have it's tail down, allowing you ample time to hack it off.
Attacks:
Tail Whack **** (Chance to poison) -----------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll get
knocked away.
To avoid this attack, it's best to first ONLY attack on his heartside,
since he will always turn clockwise no matter what.
Now, once you are on side of him, and he looks like he'll keep turning,
it's best to either get away or through his legs. You never want to be at
middle range. So either go to close range on the safe side, or out of his
range. Usually you can roll under the tail, but since his is too low to the
ground, it's safer just to get out of the way.
Unlike most things in this game, this can actually poison you...
and if you still don't take antidotes by this time in the came, it can
really hurt.
Cutting off his tail can really make this easier to avoid.
Bite *** -------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up
a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
This is a good attack, as you can attack back as it finishes. By finish,
I mean reach the end of the "C" motion and already bit. Lets say you use
something such as a sword and shield, this is a perfect time to do a jump
attack.
But remember, if he is still in the moving forward motion, it will do
damage and you will look like and idiot.
*Great time to break his ears and beak*
Triple Peck **** -----------------------------------------------------
If you stand in front of him, he may do this. You can take the same actions
as with the Bite move and aim for the head AFTER he is done with the last
peck... OR play it safe and attack his legs.
If you choose to attack his legs, this is a good and safe time to try to
knock him over.
In rage mode, NEVER go for the head during this attack as it will usually
be too quick to hit you.
Also never try to block this attack as the 3 hits will surely get through.
*Great time to break his ears and beak*
Reckless Charge **** -------------------------------------------------
A charge that comes out of literally no where. It has two outcomes...
If he charges and you are close to his heartside, it might stop and do a
bite... otherwise he will run... and fall into the ground, giving wyverns
a bad name. If you are in tight quarters you might be able to attack his
back side before he gets up.
This is why it's important to always circle your enemy... this attack can
mess you up if too many of them actually hit you... even if you block it,
it still will do a little damage.
Unlike the Yian Kut-Ku, he can do this A LOT faster especially if enraged.
For some reason with this enemy, if you go to attack it too soon after it
hits the ground, you could still take damage... I hate glitch stuff.
Fire Ball ******* (Fire) ---------------------------------------------
He will shoot a fire ball out of its mouth. Trust me, you WANT him to do
this attack as it will give you a lot of time to cut his tail.
Now, he can triple this up and it will come out like this:
| | |
| | |
@ @ @
| / \
Never changing... so if you are to his left (heartless side) after the
first one wizs by you, either start blocking or roll.
But like I said so many times, if you are circling him and he start this
up, RUN TO HIS TAIL.
*Great time to cut his tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
Not worth any effort to particularly avoid/block since it usually takes
him a long time to pull off... half the time he will do his has he flies
back a bit.
Back flip ******** (Poison) ------------------------------------------
Probably his most dangerous attack... he will do a back flip in hopes of
pegging you with it tail. He can still actually poison you if his tail is
off, but his range is cut down a lot.
Now if you see him get read for a high jump (couches a bit and tenses it's
legs) get the hell out of the way. The good news is if you are at the sides
of him, only the wind pressure will usually hit you... but if you are in
front and don't roll out of the way you are going to get hit for A LOT of
damage plus poison and have a high chance of seeing birdies.
If you are using a Sword and Shield like me, you can hit his tail as he's
coming back down. Use the jump attack to bypass the wind pressure from his
flapping wings.
*Great time to cut his tail*
Sky Tackle ******* ---------------------------------------------------
A deadly attack. If you see him fly... but not to another area, rather
the background... just circling... YOU SHOULD MOVE TO A DIFFERENT AREA!
An unblockable, VERY hard to dodge attack... not only that, but it's
strong. Again, the best thing to do is leave the area and come back in
once he has landed.

~Gypceros
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A wyvern that can generate disorienting flashes of light when its
prominent head crest is struck, its rubbery hide resists damage and can
ward off Shock Traps, while its spit carries a deadly venom. However,
they are quite timid.
My description:
Similar to the Yian Kut-Ku in some areas, but different in others. First
off, make sure you can either block or break his head chest fast.
He has an attack where he will make a flash. The good news, it will flash
any other enemy... the bad news, if it hits you, you will be open for an
attack.
When going into a map with the Gypceros, it's a good idea to bring some
antidotes.
He is much taller than the Yian Kut-Ku, and unlike the Khezu, you can
literally spend the whole time whacking his legs only fearing a few
attacks. It's not a bad idea to do just that as he's got an extendo tail
which can reach a lot father than you'd think. Staying underneath him also
prevents his annoying stealing peck as well.
Keep the damage up from underneath and you'll pull ahead. Soon enough
he'll play dead... you know he's not dead because the mission isn't
over... hitting him now in the Elder's quest will get you a shiny drop...
and in the G section it will give you a chance to carve him alive.
ONE IMPORTANT THING TO REMEMBER! He will flip out while getting back up...
this will hurt, so if you are on your last live, it may be a good idea
NOT to even mess around.
When it is injured, it will limp, but remember shock traps do not work
on them so use a pitfall trap if you want the capture.
Breaking/Cutting:
Head Crest -----------------------------------------------------------
Breaking this is the most important thing you can do. It will eliminate
his flash attacks... BUT not the attack! Doing this will make him a sitting
duck and one of the easiest enemies in the game.
The best times to do this is after his bite, pecks, and when he lobs poison.
Attacks:
Bite *** -------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up
a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
This is a good attack, as you can attack back as it finishes. By finish,
I mean reach the end of the "C" motion and already bit. Lets say you use
something such as a sword and shield, this is a perfect time to do a jump
attack.
But remember, if he is still in the moving forward motion, it will do
damage and you will look like and idiot.
*Great time to break his head crest*
Triple Peck *** (Theft) ----------------------------------------------
If you stand in front of him, he may do this. You can take the same
actions as with the Bite move and aim for the head AFTER he is done
with the last peck... OR play it safe and attack his legs.
If you choose to attack his legs, this is a good and safe time to try to
knock him over.
In rage mode, NEVER go for the head during this attack as it will usually
be too quick to hit you.
Also never try to block this attack as the 3 hits will surely get through.
Unlike any of the other monsters that bite, his can actually steal.
If you aren't too reckless, you won't need to worry about having anti
steal armor on.
*Great time to break his head crest*
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
His Tail whack is dangerous since his tail is SO friggen long and hard to
roll under. The good news is that you can stay safely underneath him,
thus avoiding it all together.
Poison Spit *** (Poison) ---------------------------------------------
Anything that comes out of his mouth... It is spit at an upward angle then
comes down. Very easily dodged and never too big of a threat. When you see
him do this, it's a good time to do a jump attack if you are using such a
weapon like the Sword and Shield and happen to be beside him.
One this to note, he may spit poison while doing a dash while raged.
If you see this happening, he does it left, right, left, right, and so on
and so on. Just wait till he's spit in a certain direction then roll
through that area.
You can also chill right in front of him and block if you want to
minimize potential damage.
Unlike the Yian Kut-Ku, HIS raged charge is EXTREMELY fast, so watch out.
*Great time to break his head crest*
Charge *** -----------------------------------------------------------
When he gets mad, he will sprint like crazy... I've only gotten hit by
this attack like once... he literally runs in random directions sometimes
spitting poison.
Unlike the Yian Kut-Ku, he will do a pansy attack at the end of it
instead of falling like an idiot.
Play it safe and just wait till it's done.
Flash (Faint) --------------------------------------------------------
He will put his tail closer to the ground and his head up high. He will do
three head jerks with a distinct audio clue. After the 3rd one he will let
out a flash.
If you have a shield, block... and make sure you face his head as it will
hit you if you aren't... if you don't have shield, make sure you are good
at tapping buttons or just try to get out of his range. Don't worry,
you should be able to break out of it before he hits you as long as
he isn't raged.
But, once his crest is broken, this attack will leave him open and you
will want him to do it all the time. If this occurs, aim for the tail,
he's weak there.
Nightmare ********* --------------------------------------------------
When he is sleeping/faking dead and you get a bit gutsy and try to
carve... or just actually fall for the trick, he will wake up in a
spasm. To avoid this attack, don't get greedy and just stand back...
or simple hurry the hell up and carve!

~Purple Gypceros
Type: Bird Wyvern
Bio: A wyvern that can generate disorienting flashes of light when its
prominent head crest is struck, its rubbery hide resists damage and can
ward off Shock Traps, while its spit carries a deadly venom. However, they
are quite timid.
My description:
This enemy is pretty much the same as the regular colored Gypceros. Maybe
I'm dreaming but it might get a bit faster and do a bit more damage.
Regardless, it's not much different.

~Remobra
Type: Wyvern
Bio: Small wyverns with outstanding flying abilities, they loiter in the
skies waiting to prey upon weakened animals. Known to attack alongside
Elder Dragons, they are known as an omen to disaster.
My description:
A flying nuisance. Usually you can only hit their tails, but will hit
the ground after a little bit.
Nothing more I can say... they usually only hit me when I was gathering
in the Volcano.
But I doubt you came to this FAQ to look up Remobra slaying tips.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Dash **** ------------------------------------------------------------
It will swoop down from far away and knock you on your ass. I can't give
you many tips besides don't let them get out of your sight for too long.
Poison Drop * (Poison) -----------------------------------------------
It will drop poison while in the air. Again... this usually only hit me
when I wasn't paying attention.

~Rathian
Type: Wyvern
Bio: Female version of the Rathalos wyvern. Unlike its male counterpart,
it usually patrols its territory from the ground. Its tail spikes are
filled with poison.
My description:
If you fought the Yian Garuga, this bitch shouldn't be any bit of challenge
for you. In fact, this thing has even less moves.
4 words of warning or main differences.
It can turn BOTH ways, unlike most monsters that only turn
counter-clockwise. So when attacking you always want to counter-attack
instead of simply making an opening for yourself.
It is MUCH bigger than the Yian Kut-Ku/Yian Garuga, so you'll ALWAYS want
to be circling it in fear of it's charge. Believe me, you'll see this
almost too much. For this move, I would recommend taking a shield as if
you are far away and especially if it is in rage mode (will roar and have
a fire exhale) it is nearly impossible to avoid.
It's roar will usually make you a victim of any of it's attacks, so a
shield or the Ear Plug skill with hearing protection armor is highly
recommended.
And the final big difference, almost any two hits can make you get dazed,
so you REALLY need to play it safe.
Other than that, she is still MUCH easier than the male counterpart.
It will limp while weak, and you can get a shiny if you wake it up from
it's slumber shortly after it bails on you.
Breaking/Cutting:
Head Spikes ----------------------------------------------------------
Don't worry about going for this until you cut of the tail... her spikes
shatter really quickly... you'll want to go for this after her bite attack.
But once the tail is gone, MAKE sure you break the face as it has good
rare rewards.
Wing Claws -----------------------------------------------------------
Just aim for the wings whenever you want to break these... again, just
like the Head Spikes, worry about these even less as the rewards aren't
that great.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
Now, assuming you can hit the tail when it is in the neutral position,
it shouldn't be hard... but with the Sword and Shield, whenever it does
it's fire/triple ball would be the best time.
Another good time is after it's Back flip move, now with the Sword and
Shield you'll have to time the jump attack to negate the wind pressure.
When it does it's charge attack and falls down, this is another good
time... although you have to be in a small area to make use of it.
Basically anytime you see her tail in the ground due to glitches is
the best time to hit it... as anytime she flies down from above.
Attacks:
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
This is her default attack when she turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away.
Unlike mostly everything else in this game, it can turn BOTH ways. This
makes it difficult to plan an "attack" with out the word "counter" before
it.
Best thing I can tell you is either don't be in range all the time
(THIS TAIL IS LONG) or dodge through the legs, and do it well.
This is why the TAIL MUST DIE!
Bite ** --------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
This is a good attack, as you can attack back as it finishes. By finish,
I mean reach the end of the "C" motion and already bit. Lets say you use
something such as a sword and shield, this is a perfect time to do a
jump attack.
But remember, if she is still in the moving forward motion, it will do
damage and you will look like and idiot.
*Great time to break her head spikes and left wing claws*
Reckless Charge ***** ------------------------------------------------
A charge that comes out of literally no where. It has two outcomes...
If she charges and you are close to her heartside, it might stop and do a
bite... otherwise she will run... and fall into the ground, giving wyverns
a bad name. If you are in tight quarters you might be able to attack her
back side before she gets up.
This is why it's important to always circle your enemy... this attack
can mess you up if too many of them actually hit you... even if you
block it, it still will do a little damage.
Unlike the Yian Kut-Ku, THIS DOES MAD DAMAGE and MAD STUN... so be very
cautious.
*Great time to cut off the tail*
Fire Ball ******* (Fire) ---------------------------------------------
She will shoot a fire ball out of her mouth. Trust me, you WANT her to do
this attack as it will give you a lot of time to cut her tail.
Now, she can triple this up and it will come out like this:
| | |
| | |
@ @ @
| / \
Never changing... so if you are to her left (heartless side) after the
first one wizs by you, either start blocking or roll.
But like I said so many times, if you are circling her and she starts
this up, RUN TO HER TAIL.
*Great time to cut her tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
It will pause for a slightly moment and look a bit to the sky. This roar
can mean curtains if she hits you with it and she charges. Best either
stand next to her side to get hit with a weaker attack. Once you see the
roar once, REMEMBER IT.
Back flip ******** (Poison) ------------------------------------------
Probably her most dangerous attack... she will do a back flip in hopes of
pegging you with its tail. She can still actually poison you if her tail
is off, but her range is cut down a lot.
Now if you see her gettting read for a high jump (couches a bit and tenses
it's legs) get the hell out of the way. The good news is if you are at the
sides of her, only the wind pressure will usually hit you... but if you are
in front and don't roll out of the way you are going to get hit for A LOT
of damage plus poison and have a high chance of seeing birdies.
If you are using a Sword and Shield like me, you can hit her tail as he's
coming back down. Use the jump attack to bypass the wind pressure from his
flapping wings.

This is her default attack when she turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away.
Unlike mostly everything else in this game, it can turn BOTH ways. This
makes it difficult to plan an "attack" with out the word "counter" before
it.
Best thing I can tell you is either don't be in range all the time
(THIS TAIL IS LONG) or dodge through the legs, and do it well.
This is why the TAIL MUST DIE!
Bite ** --------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
This is a good attack, as you can attack back as it finishes. By finish,
I mean reach the end of the "C" motion and already bit. Lets say you use
something such as a sword and shield, this is a perfect time to do a
jump attack.
But remember, if she is still in the moving forward motion, it will do
damage and you will look like and idiot.
*Great time to break her head spikes and left wing claws*
Reckless Charge ***** ------------------------------------------------
A charge that comes out of literally no where. It has two outcomes...
If she charges and you are close to her heartside, it might stop and do a
bite... otherwise she will run... and fall into the ground, giving wyverns
a bad name. If you are in tight quarters you might be able to attack her
back side before she gets up.
This is why it's important to always circle your enemy... this attack
can mess you up if too many of them actually hit you... even if you
block it, it still will do a little damage.
Unlike the Yian Kut-Ku, THIS DOES MAD DAMAGE and MAD STUN... so be very
cautious.
*Great time to cut off the tail*
Fire Ball ******* (Fire) ---------------------------------------------
She will shoot a fire ball out of her mouth. Trust me, you WANT her to do
this attack as it will give you a lot of time to cut her tail.
Now, she can triple this up and it will come out like this:
| | |
| | |
@ @ @
| / \
Never changing... so if you are to her left (heartless side) after the
first one wizs by you, either start blocking or roll.
But like I said so many times, if you are circling her and she starts
this up, RUN TO HER TAIL.
*Great time to cut her tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
It will pause for a slightly moment and look a bit to the sky. This roar
can mean curtains if she hits you with it and she charges. Best either
stand next to her side to get hit with a weaker attack. Once you see the
roar once, REMEMBER IT.
Back flip ******** (Poison) ------------------------------------------
Probably her most dangerous attack... she will do a back flip in hopes of
pegging you with its tail. She can still actually poison you if her tail
is off, but her range is cut down a lot.
Now if you see her gettting read for a high jump (couches a bit and tenses
it's legs) get the hell out of the way. The good news is if you are at the
sides of her, only the wind pressure will usually hit you... but if you are
in front and don't roll out of the way you are going to get hit for A LOT
of damage plus poison and have a high chance of seeing birdies.
If you are using a Sword and Shield like me, you can hit her tail as he's
coming back down. Use the jump attack to bypass the wind pressure from his
flapping wings.
*Great time to cut her tail*

~Rathalos
Type: Wyvern
Bio: Male wyvern that keeps a nest and patrols its patch of territory from
the air in search of prey. Its claws are filled with a poison that weakens
its quarry.
My description:
The more dangerous of the two "Rath's" simply because of few moves changes.
Now you can fight it in the same way as the Rathian, save a few big
differences.
NEVER EVER attack it from the front or the under belly too long, as it's
charge can hit you with ease and he has a ditch fireball attack.
Another thing, he will take to the skies a lot... when dealing with this,
ALWAYS hug his shadow. Doing this will negate anything he tries to do.
Some people swear by using all the flash bombs possible... when I think
they are unnecessary. As long as you cut his tail off quickly and continue
to circle him and counter only when safe, you shouldn't have too much
trouble.
I still recommend a shield for his long range charges, and the Sword and
Shield will prove good when trying to avoid his wind pressure with a well
timed jump. In fact, the best time to attack him if during his landing
times as not only can you get a good cheap shots in, he'll have a higher
chance of falling down.
As with the Rathian, he will limp to safety once injured enough and will
drop a shiny if woken up.
Avoid attacking him while he is raged, since he does too much damage,
stun, and at a very fast rate. Again, with the Rathian, cutting off that
tail is the best thing you can do to ensure victory.
Breaking/Cutting:
Head Spikes ----------------------------------------------------------
Don't worry about going for this until you cut of the tail... his spikes
shatter really quickly... you'll want to go for this after his bite attack.
But once the tail is gone, MAKE sure you break the face as it has good
rare rewards.
Wing Claws -----------------------------------------------------------
Just aim for the wings whenever you want to break these... again, just
like the Head Spikes, worry about these even less as the rewards aren't
that great.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
Now, assuming you can hit the tail when it is in the neutral position, it
shouldn't be hard... but with the Sword and Shield, whenever it does it's
fire ball attack would be the best time.
Now, any time it will fly back down from the ground after first entering
an area or doing one of it's flying attacks, you can get a jump in with
the Sword and Shield. Just aim for the curl in the tail and you will hack
it off in no time.
When it does it's charge attack and falls down, this is another good
time... although you have to be in a small area to make use of it.
Basically anytime you see his tail in the ground due to glitches is the
best time to hit it... as anytime he flies down from above which happens
to be quite often.
Attacks:
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll get

you plan to cut the tail, you have to move quicker and won't get as many
hits off.
*Great time to cut his tail*
Sky Fire Ball ******* (Fire) -----------------------------------------
He will fly in the air, and either do this move, or the stinger listed
below. To avoid it, either leave the area if far away, or stay under him
in his shadow.
Make sure to cut his tail as he descends.
*Great time to cut his tail*
Ditch Fireball ******* (Fire) ----------------------------------------
In my opinion, his most dangerous move as it can come out of nowhere some
times. This attack will be the bane of new hunters that want to get
greedy with their attacks.
Basically you've seen when weaker monster will to the repel/escape quick
fly thing. Well instead of doing a roar like the Yian Garuga, it will spit
a nice chunk of fire at you.
The only thing you can do is just know when he will do this attack by
looking at him at all times once you are under him.
But like I said in the main Rathalos strategy, never attack him
underneath... at least not until you have this attack's start up bedded
in your mind.
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
It will pause for a slightly moment and look a bit to the sky. This roar
can mean curtains if he hits you with it and he charges. Best either
stand next to his side to get hit with a weaker attack. Once you see the
roar once, REMEMBER IT.
Stinger ******* (Poison + Faint) -------------------------------------
Probably one the most devastating attacks in the game... a lot of damage,
stun, and poison.
It will start this from the sky after a load pitched noise. If you are
close to it, hide under him in his shadow... if you are far away,
MAKE SURE YOU MOVE TO A DIFFERENT AREA! It is hard to dodge and unblockable.
Attack his tail once it descends.

Type: Wyvern

~Khezu
Type: Wyvern
Bio: Loathsome wyverns that live inside caves. Near blind, they detect
their prey by smell. They are capable of generating electric shocks,
which they use to paralyze their prey.
My description:
My favorite boss, but one a lot of people have trouble on. This is probably
the first hard monster you went up against where roars will really start
to piss you off.
Now for prep, make sure to have full healing, lightning resist, hot
drinks if fought in the mountains, or dung bombs to make the blind
bastard spaz.
Like the Bio says, it really is blind (therefore no battle music, no
double stamina drain when running, or even a little eyes symbol)
but it can easily find you.
Now this thing has a lot of health, so you want to REALLY hammer in the
attacks after EVERY attack that doesn't deal with his head moving.
Why you ask? His roar comes out quick and clued by his head moving
and there are way better times to capitalize damage than countering
his bite.
Now you'll want to always circle him, especially once in rage mode,
since a jump can come out very quick. Also, don't stand too far away
from him, always keep close.
When going in for the attack, it's best to wait till he does something
first as you'll see in the attack section, he has an electrical attack
that can really mess you up if you get too greedy.
But if you really must attack, aim for the legs. His front side is too
risky due to bites... and he falls down really easily. Also attack the
back legs at this angle:
@
|
==|==
^|
/ *
/
This is to avoid the potential electric shock since a side roll will get
you past it's tail and wings noted by the *. Remember any touch to any
part will result in damage. The front is also dangerous to attack due to
this, as a side roll will usually end up hitting a wing.
Now like I said, it's best to always counter attack this beast...
if you need more help, read the attack section.
Once he is weak he with either limp, or fly away (after standing still
for very long). He will only drop a shiny if hanging upside down in the
swamp level.
His rage mode is dangerous, signaled by random pants/biting/lowing of the
head complete with a foggy/cold exhale from the mouth.
Breaking/Cutting:
Scaring Back ---------------------------------------------------------
Chances are, with the amount of health he has, you'll have no problem
"breaking" him. If you need extra help, aim for this area after his shock
spit attack or during the many times his fat ass will fall to the ground.
Attacks:
Tail Whack ***** -----------------------------------------------------
The same counterclockwise spin you've seen way too many times. Only with
his tail, you may think you can dodge it better... when the game will
screw you and you will take damage.
Don't bother rolling away from him, if you time it right, you should be
rolling under him.
Bite ***** -----------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head
up a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will
only hit you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot,
get greedy.
Unlike most of the other enemies in the game, I wouldn't recommend going
for a counter attack right here since the bite comes out a bit quicker
than most of monsters... and has a lot higher damage/range quality to
factor in. Do your best not to chill right in front of him.
Falling Press ****** -------------------------------------------------
This is what happens if you are in the swamp... he is on the ceiling...
and you just happen to be under him.
This attack usually won't hit you, but to avoid it, just tilt your camera
up and keep an eyes on it.
I think it can drop acid on you, but I've never came in contact with it.
Once it falls, be sure to attack it when it lands for a few free hits.
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
It will put it's mouth up in a u pattern and let out a LOUD roar. Now
this will make you shield your ears for quite a long time, and if he is
raged, you will most likely ALWAYS get hit with an attack.
Make sure you always block EVEN if you suspect him to let out of roar...
safe than sorry.
It will appear to sound loader than any other roar, this is because
there is never boss music during a Khezu fight.
Jump ******* ---------------------------------------------------------
A high jump... although not high enough to stand under. If you are in
small area and you are constantly circling him, this will never hit you.
Just make sure to attack him once he comes to a stop.
Electrical Jump ******** (Thunder) -----------------------------------
Pretty much the same as the above attack, only with an added electrical
flavor. The only thing you have to do different is wait a moment longer
to counter attack since the shock doesn't die out right away. He will
usually do this one more when enraged.
Electrical Spit ******** (Thunder and Paralysis) ---------------------
A very dangerous attack as it not only does MASSIVE damage, but makes you
twitch on the ground, usually taking another attack... Getting hit by this
on the harder quests will usually mean death. This is the main reason
you'll always want to be close to him as you can easily out turn this.
If you are close, you can easily counter attack... if you are closer to
the front, attack his face after it lets go... if you are closer to the
back, hammer away on his legs.
Now, one thing I didn't mention, he always shoots three of these out in
a spread pattern. So if you are in mid range, you are pretty much screwed
if you can't break away from the extending angled ones. If you are at long
range, how you are far away enough to stand in-between two of them.
*Great time to scar it's back side*
Electric Shield ****** -----------------------------------------------
As my one friend would call it, the most bullshit attack in the game...
it doesn't even do electric damage! He will do this at anytime you are
next to him hitting away. It has a noticeable start up... but once you see
it, ROLL TWICE out of the away... sometimes one roll might not be enough
as it will do damage to you even with the slightest touch.
Being able to dodge this attack is what will decide if you can kill the
Khezu or if he will kill you.
IF you are good like me, you can do a nice jump in attack once he is done
without fear of him countering (has he will still be getting up). This
takes perfect timing. The funny part is, if you do this, you can keep this
up for quite a while (Him shock, you counter, him shock, you counter...
etc). I had him do this for about 8 or 9 times in a row before.

~Red Khezu
Type: Wyvern
Bio: Loathsome wyverns that live inside caves. Near blind, they detect
their prey by smell. They are capable of generating electric shocks, which
they use to paralyze their prey.
My description:
The same qualities as the Pale Khezu, only with two main differences.
An added head swing move, and MUCH more health. It will surely take you a
while if you are alone... so make sure you aren't getting hit by easy to
dodge attacks like his "Blanka" shock.
Breaking/Cutting:

~Basarios
Type: Wyvern
Bio: A large wyvern found in volcanic zones. They are the juvenile form of
the Gravios. They have a steel-like carapace that requires powerful items
to crack. Emits poison gas.
My description:
The baby gravyos... he's not that bad if you know what he does. This is
largely dude to it's slow speed and easy to spot telegraphs.
First and foremost, either get a water elemental bow, or the sharpest
weapon you can get.
Regardless what you take, AIM for the gut. In fact, if you use anything
melee, you'll most likely bounce off any where else.
You're goal is to ultimately break of his chest plate to reveal his tender
insiders to do massive damage. Since you are in the volcano, make sure to
make use of the gray exploding rocks to aid in this... as well as any type
of bomb.
Practice on him... but he's not too hard... I'm telling you to practice
for once you get to his big daddy usually in the next rank.
Now, to even start the fight, he likes to hide halfway in the ground and
halfway in above ground. He will look like a bunch of rocks. Once stricken
in this state, he will usually drop a shiny.
Now if you are going to capture, I never really seen him limp, but I can
tell you he will have a fire breath and actually launch a fire beam out of
his mouth.
Breaking/Cutting:
Chest Plate ----------------------------------------------------------
VERY important to break as it will be the only means of doing decent damage
to it. Other than attacking it When ever you can, you can also injure it
with bombs, either the ones you place down or the ones already present in
a volcano.
In fact, I wouldn't start actually fighting him UNTIL he's ran into every
one. You can get to his chest with almost anything. With a quick roll out
of the way, you usually won't be hit with anything.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
I actually never personally broke off his tail... it isn't even worth
trying for as the items aren't that great and not a whole lot will come off.
Attacks:
Pop up *** -----------------------------------------------------------
This is an attack you'll only see once per area. It's simply him surfacing
from the ground. If you make him pop up due to an attack, you'll get a
shiny. There's a good chance that you might get hit, so you can always
play it safe and throw a paintball or a stone at him.
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away. Remember it only turns counterclockwise.
It would be wise to just either block or roll to the side, then out of
the way to avoid taking damage from the tail as rolling under will usually
get you hit and you'll only want to be attacking him from the front any ways.
It isn't as fast as many of the other tail spins.
Tail Sweep **** ------------------------------------------------------
If it dashes past you, sometimes it may stand with it's back side to you
and look over its shoulder in the attempt to hit you with it's tail.
Now something to keep in mind: It goes back and forth twice for a total
of four times. If you are close to him, make your way past his front side
and aim for the chest... if you are no where next to that, use an item,
you have lots of time.
Bite *** -------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up
a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only
hit you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot,
get greedy.
Unlike all the other monsters in the game, when he does this, you'll
want to aim past the neck in hopes of hitting the chest once it lifts up.
Hip Check **** -------------------------------------------------------
A very dangerous attack. He will turn to his right "heartless" side and
try to shank you with his right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front
of him PAST his head, you can easily dodge out of the way.
If you are just under the head, you can roll to his left flank.
If you are underneath him, MAKE SURE TO BLOCK! Even if you dodge perfectly,
if you touch ANY part of him while this move is going, you will still
take full damage.
If you dodged to the left or blocked, you'll usually have a second or
two to counter attack.
Dash ****** ----------------------------------------------------------
You'll see this move ALL too much. This is the moves you'll want him to
do when trying to bait him into bombs... yes once you're all out, he will
annoy you with this. Unlike most of the other wyverns, he won't fall down...
and ALMOST ALWAYS overshoot.
This means wasted time. The only thing you can do is a quick jump attack
with the sword and shield angled at his belly. Once you land, if you keep
attacking, you hit part of its tail... and for some reason you won't take
damage. It works better on the Gravyos... so if you keep getting hit
while trying that, just roll out of the way.
He will always start a run with a distinct looking "bow-down" type roar.
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
I'll be honest... I NEVER once blocked this attack... and I usually never
get hit with too much as a result of getting stunned. So don't worry about
it too much.... even if he does get a hit in, it's not going to be too
harsh.
Fire Spit ****** (Fire) ----------------------------------------------
He will stand a bit taller and fling a fire ball out PRETTY far... it also
has a giant spread once it hits the ground so don't think you're safe
if doesn't hit you right out. He will usually do this far away... but
not too often. So if you see it about to happen just run to the sides
has it only goes strait.
Fake Fire Beam/Fire Beam ******** (Fire) -----------------------------
Now for the majority of the fight, if he does this rare move, you will see
him but his head and neck parallel to the ground. Now depending on his
health... some times you will just hear the fire beam noise. Regardless,
it does a lot of damage so you'll never want to be in front of him since
it has a near infinite range.
If you are close to when he does this, go to he side of his neck and start
attacking... you'll usually hit his chest.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Poison Gas ** (Poison) -----------------------------------------------
It will stand up high with it's wings spread and come back down really
slowly. It has a grunt that goes with it that is easy to spot out.
The key is, once you see him stand up slowly, squeeze one more attack in
and roll out of the way.
Then once he is done with this, you can hit his wing or tail.
Sleepy Gas (Sleep) ---------------------------------------------------
The same as the above, only a bit rare to see. It has the same start up but
a bigger risk because you will usually get hit if fallen asleep.

~Gravios
Type: Wyvern
Bio: A large wyvern found in volcanic zones. They possess a fiery breath
attack and the ability to emit a sleeping gas. They also have extremely
hard scales that deflect most weapon attacks.
My description:
The most massive non-fortress monster in the game... he has a lot of
health to boot.
Now, the problem with him is getting the kill in before the 50 minute time
limit. I would strongly suggest using either the strongest water bow you
can grab. Now, I suck with bows... so if you want to stick with melee like
me, you will have to read my attack section because you have to not only
attack at every time possible, but make them all count.
With the Basarios, it has nearly the same moves, and the same breakable
chest plate. It is your goal to break this as soon as possible. Bombs and
volcano laid rocks should all be used to aid you in this... but if it is
raining in the swamp, you won't have that luxury.
Now the fight is almost the same as the Basarios, but one major
difference... HE IS FRIGGEN huge. NEVER ever stand DIRECTLY in front of him.
For preparation, bombs in the volcano, any skills on armor that can give
you Fencing for ESP (so you don't bounce) or even Guard+'s to be able to
block his fire beam. I highly recommend a shield if you plan to go close
to him. Also, FIRE RESIST! Especially in melee to soak up as much "Fart"
damage as possible.
He will limp once injured and will drop a shiny if you wake him up.
Breaking/Cutting:
Chest Plate ----------------------------------------------------------
You'll want to break this as soon as possible... if you don't have access
to bombs, you'll have to duke it out. To learn when, just scroll down to
the attacks.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
Just like the Basarios, I never actually cut his tail... when ever I tried
doing this, I ended up running out of time. The good news is that you get
two carves so it would be worth it to cut it's tail... and die on purpose
for the items.
Attacks:
Tail Whack ***** -----------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll get
knocked away. Remember it only turns counterclockwise.
If you can't get under his legs, you'll want to first block the tail when
it comes by the first time, THEN roll to the right. His tail is so long
and bendy, hit will usually hit you twice per rotation (assuming you are
blocking), but some times the second hit will register in your back
area, knocking you down any ways.
Tail Sweep ***** -----------------------------------------------------
If it dashes past you, sometimes it may stand with it's back side to you
and look over its shoulder in the attempt to hit you with it's tail. Now
something to keep in mind: It goes back and forth twice for a total of
four times.
Unlike the Basarios, you usually won't have enough time to get in front of
him to whack his chest... so you can actually try your best to hit his
tail ONLY after the 4th and final swing goes back to neutral.
Or use this time to use an item like me.
Bite **** ------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift their head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
Unlike all the other monsters in the game, when he does this, you'll want
to aim past the next in hopes of hitting the chest once it lifts up.
ALWAYS take this time to get in a shot to the stomach.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Hip Check ***** ------------------------------------------------------
A very dangerous attack. He will turn to his right "heartless" side and try
to shank you with his right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of him
PAST his head, you can easily dodge out of the way in the same way he's
facing.
If you are underneath him, MAKE SURE TO BLOCK! Even if you dodge perfectly,
if you touch ANY part of him while this move is going, you will still take
full damage.
If you are always circling him counter clockwise, if blocked, you will
have a few moments to get his chest while he slowly recovers.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Dash ****** ----------------------------------------------------------
You'll see this move ALL too much. This is the move you'll want him to do
when trying to bait him into bombs... yes once you're all out, he will
annoy you with this. Unlike most of the other wyverns, he won't fall down...
and ALMOST ALWAYS overshoot.
This means wasted time. The only thing you can do is a quick jump attack
with the sword and shield angled at his belly. Once you land, if you keep
attacking, you hit part of its tail... and for some reason you won't take
damage. Now, since he is bigger you'll have to time this to where you are
literally in air and striking down where his neck was (and into the chest)
BEFORE his head lifts off the ground.
If done right, you can score two hits on the chest, and two more on the
tail. DO not do this if you think you suck as screwing up once can mean
lots of damage.
He will always start a run with a distinct looking "bow-down" type roar.
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
I'll be honest... I NEVER once blocked this attack... and I usually never
get hit with too much as a result of getting stunned. So don't worry about
it too much.... even if he does get a hit in, it's not going to be too
harsh.
However, in the G rank quests, I would recommend high grade ear plugs with
the "hear protection" skill. Since if he's pissed, he can do this... then
a fire beam... a fire beam... a fire beam... ya, death.
Fire Beam ********* (Fire) -------------------------------------------
This is the move YOU WANT him to do. He will lift up tall and then come
back down with his head and chest parallel to the ground. Now, it differs
from the Gas attack because you'll notice he will do this much more quicker.
Now, when attacking, obviously you'll want to angle an attack past his
neck to the chest.... whatever you do, hit him like this.
##
|| %% = Mouth
|| * = Where to attack
/\
| |
[][]| |[][]
[][][]| |[][][]
*\/*
||
B /||\ <---\
| %% | <------ Invisible "damage" area
\||/ <---/
A ||
||
|| <--- Beam
You see, if you are too close to the mouth, you'll still get hit. Although
the beam only goes strait, it still has a spread close to his mouth. So
if you are at point A, don't go right to the *, instead, go to B first,
then go to *.
Now, ONLY if you are low on healing items and health should you avoid
hitting the chest as he will do a fire fart from taking hits there. You
are always safe to hit his wings or even tail if you can get to it in time.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Sleepy Gas (Sleep) ---------------------------------------------------
It will stand up high with it's wings spread and come back down really
slowly. It has a grunt that goes with it that is easy to spot out.
Now, unlike the Basarios, DO NOT get greedy and squeeze in another attack.
It is so big, you'll usually need a good two rolls to get out of his area.
The good news is you can freely hit his wings and stand safely out of
harms way.
Fire Gas *** (Fire) --------------------------------------------------
The same fire fart he can do during his beam attack once attacked too
many times. Personally, I would rather him do this attack all the time
because it's usually a lot better then getting put to sleep.

Type: Wyvern
Bio: A large wyvern found in volcanic zones. They possess a fiery breath
attack and the ability to emit a sleeping gas. They also have extremely
hard scales that deflect most weapon attacks.
My description:
Pretty much the same as the Lighter version, expect the obvious more
health and less weaknesses.
For the G ranked quests, it will sport a new fire beam attack that will
curve to make life harder.
I would highly recommend having Guard+'s on your armor to be able to
block this attack.
Breaking/Cutting:
Chest Plate ----------------------------------------------------------
You'll want to break this as soon as possible... if you don't have access
to bombs, you'll have to duke it out. To learn when, just scroll down to

something to keep in mind: It goes back and forth twice for a total of
four times.
Unlike the Basarios, you usually won't have enough time to get in front of
him to whack his chest... so you can actually try your best to hit his
tail ONLY after the 4th and final swing goes back to neutral.
Or use this time to use an item like me.
Bite **** ------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift their head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
Unlike all the other monsters in the game, when he does this, you'll want
to aim past the next in hopes of hitting the chest once it lifts up.
ALWAYS take this time to get in a shot to the stomach.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Hip Check ***** ------------------------------------------------------
A very dangerous attack. He will turn to his right "heartless" side and try
to shank you with his right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of him
PAST his head, you can easily dodge out of the way in the same way he's
facing.
If you are underneath him, MAKE SURE TO BLOCK! Even if you dodge perfectly,
if you touch ANY part of him while this move is going, you will still take
full damage.
If you are always circling him counter clockwise, if blocked, you will
have a few moments to get his chest while he slowly recovers.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Dash ****** ----------------------------------------------------------
You'll see this move ALL too much. This is the move you'll want him to do
when trying to bait him into bombs... yes once you're all out, he will
annoy you with this. Unlike most of the other wyverns, he won't fall down...
and ALMOST ALWAYS overshoot.
This means wasted time. The only thing you can do is a quick jump attack
with the sword and shield angled at his belly. Once you land, if you keep
attacking, you hit part of its tail... and for some reason you won't take
damage. Now, since he is bigger you'll have to time this to where you are
literally in air and striking down where his neck was (and into the chest)
BEFORE his head lifts off the ground.
If done right, you can score two hits on the chest, and two more on the
tail. DO not do this if you think you suck as screwing up once can mean
lots of damage.
He will always start a run with a distinct looking "bow-down" type roar.
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
I'll be honest... I NEVER once blocked this attack... and I usually never
get hit with too much as a result of getting stunned. So don't worry about
it too much.... even if he does get a hit in, it's not going to be too
harsh.
However, in the G rank quests, I would recommend high grade ear plugs with
the "hear protection" skill. Since if he's pissed, he can do this... then
a fire beam... a fire beam... a fire beam... ya, death.
Fire Beam ********* (Fire) -------------------------------------------
This is the move YOU WANT him to do. He will lift up tall and then come
back down with his head and chest parallel to the ground. Now, it differs
from the Gas attack because you'll notice he will do this much more quicker.
Now, when attacking, obviously you'll want to angle an attack past his
neck to the chest.... whatever you do, hit him like this.
##
|| %% = Mouth
|| * = Where to attack
/\
| |
[][]| |[][]
[][][]| |[][][]
*\/*
||
B /||\ <---\
| %% | <------ Invisible "damage" area
\||/ <---/
A ||
||
|| <--- Beam
You see, if you are too close to the mouth, you'll still get hit. Although
the beam only goes strait, it still has a spread close to his mouth. So
if you are at point A, don't go right to the *, instead, go to B first,
then go to *.
Now, ONLY if you are low on healing items and health should you avoid
hitting the chest as he will do a fire fart from taking hits there. You
are always safe to hit his wings or even tail if you can get to it in time.
*Great time to break his chest plate*
Sleepy Gas (Sleep) ---------------------------------------------------
It will stand up high with it's wings spread and come back down really
slowly. It has a grunt that goes with it that is easy to spot out.
Now, unlike the Basarios, DO NOT get greedy and squeeze in another attack.
It is so big, you'll usually need a good two rolls to get out of his area.
The good news is you can freely hit his wings and stand safely out of
harms way.
Fire Gas *** (Fire) --------------------------------------------------
The same fire fart he can do during his beam attack once attacked too
many times. Personally, I would rather him do this attack all the time
because it's usually a lot better then getting put to sleep..

~Monoblos
Type: Wyvern
Bio: A large-horned wyvern found in desert zones. Their giant horn makes
their attacks very dangerous. While they have no breath attack, their
ear-splitting roar is the bane of hunters.
My description:
You'll probably first notice these guys as the shells on the large red
crabs back before this mission... and judging just from that, you know they
will be big.
I would highly recommend to take something that can block. These monsters
can really get violet once pissed off and sometimes give you little chance
to dodge.
For the most part, you'll want to attack their legs in hopes to making
them fall over.
For equips, you'll always want to bring in hot/cold drinks depending on
what time of day you'll fight these in the desert.
Sonic bombs are a good idea to bring if fighting the dual ones or the
ones in the Guild. Using these once they are underground will make me pop
up half way up to whack at them for free. You can't put a price on that.
DO NOT, however, use a sonic bomb once it is raged as it won't do a bit
of good.
When going in for an attack, never go right behind it... you'll usually
get hit with it's tail if you don't move to his stomach area.
It will limp once injured and will drop a shiny if you bull fight it into a
wall.
Breaking/Cutting:
"Mono" Horn ----------------------------------------------------------
The best and only real easy way to do this is to get them first stuck in a
wall and attack the hell out of the face. You don't have to be completely
accurate to break it off... Just for the record, it won't break completely
off, rather chip. There are three ways to do this:
1st: In the area where there is a piece of rock in the middle, stand on the
other side of it. If it charges it will usually get stuck.
2nd: In the small area with the ledge, climb it, hide up there. It will
usually ram it getting stuck.
3rd: May favorite way, just block in front of any one of those two areas
you can get it stuck. I like this way because once it gets stuck, you'll
be right there to attack it.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
It's very hard to hit this tail while it's just standing as it is very
tall. The two best times to do this is before it burrows and right after
it comes out. Sad part, you can only get it before it burrows if you use
the sword and shields jump attack or use the skill on armors that negates
wind (which ironically is found on all blos equips).
The only other times is when it's knocked over.
Attacks:
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away. Remember it only turns counterclockwise.
The best thing to do, is ALWAYS attack underneath him while he his turning
as dodging away will usually get you hit due to the sheer size of the
blos tail.
Tail Sweep ***** -----------------------------------------------------
He will usually do this either if it dashes past you or right when it
surfaces. It will look of its shoulders and swing twice. This is NOT an
attack to take lightly... especially once it is enraged as it just goes
TOO fast.
If you are coming up from behind him, make sure you attack his right
(heartless side) leg to avoid the first swing.
Or use this as the best time to use an item.
Bite ***** -----------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head
up a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only
hit you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot,
get greedy.
I wouldn't recommend even bother counter attacking this move... he will
usually just lift back up quickly and you'll hit nothing but air any ways
by the time you actually swing within range.
Hip Check ***** ------------------------------------------------------
A very dangerous attack. He will turn to his right "heartless" side and
try to shank you with his right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of
him PAST his head, you can easily dodge out of the way in the same way
he's facing.
If you are underneath him, MAKE SURE TO BLOCK! Even if you dodge perfectly,
if you touch ANY part of him while this move is going, you will still take
full damage.
I wouldn't counter attack unless you happed to avoid this attack WITHOUT
dodging away from him or if you blocked it because it's recovering speed
his too fast.
Skewer ****** --------------------------------------------------------
The most gruesome attack you can get on you... it will just pop you into
the air with it's horn. You will go flying too.
To avoid this attack, don't be an idiot and stay in front of him. Chances
are, if you are circling him counterclockwise you'll never get hit by this
attack.
Charge ******* -------------------------------------------------------
He will rear back, open his mouth a bit, and spread its wings... then once
it does that, it will charge very quickly towards you. In the event of it
being in rage mode, IT WILL GO EXTREMELY FAST!
This is the move I recommend the shield for, has if it has more than a few
paces to get to you, you'll have to block, otherwise you'll get hit due to
him being so friggen huge.
It's hard to make a good counter attack against this move, if he doesn't
have long way to travel and you get behind him, don't stay there as he
will usually always tail sweep.
Any ways, if you read the "Breaking Horn" section up above, ALWAYS try to
take advantage of this. But if you do break its horn, it won't get stuck
anymore.
*Great time to break his horn*
Burrow/Surfacing Combo ******* ---------------------------------------
You will indubitably see this attack many times during this fight. The first
thing you should do once you see him burrow is put away your weapon and
start running away at an angle. (If you have a sword and shield, a jump
attack can be used to get a final hit on the tail).
You are running for two reasons... the first reason is to avoid him when
he'll resurface, noted buy a trail of sand. The second reason is to be able
to run up to them once they resurface to attack the tail. This is a great
time to attack it... but once it lifts up, don't attack it anymore since it
you'll not only miss, but he will usually start up a tail sweep.
If you have a sonic bomb, you can use as he burrows to get some good free
hits in.
One thing to note, he will not move underground for about 5 seconds...
if he is enraged, it will be about 2 seconds, so DO NOT try for the extra
hits.
*Great time to attack his tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
Unlike most of the roars in the game, this one is one you REALLY want to
block. The good news is it has a long start up and the most obvious as well.
He will almost crouch down and roar with it's head up. Just make sure you
remember this as you'll need to block this if you plan on staying alive.
Also, but make sure you are facing his mouth, so if you are under him while
he does that you should turn around.

He will usually do this either if it dashes past you or right when it
surfaces. It will look of its shoulders and swing twice. This is NOT an
attack to take lightly... especially once it is enraged as it just goes
TOO fast.
If you are coming up from behind him, make sure you attack his right
(heartless side) leg to avoid the first swing.
Or use this as the best time to use an item.
Bite ***** -----------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head
up a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only
hit you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot,
get greedy.
I wouldn't recommend even bother counter attacking this move... he will
usually just lift back up quickly and you'll hit nothing but air any ways
by the time you actually swing within range.
Hip Check ***** ------------------------------------------------------
A very dangerous attack. He will turn to his right "heartless" side and
try to shank you with his right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of
him PAST his head, you can easily dodge out of the way in the same way
he's facing.
If you are underneath him, MAKE SURE TO BLOCK! Even if you dodge perfectly,
if you touch ANY part of him while this move is going, you will still take
full damage.
I wouldn't counter attack unless you happed to avoid this attack WITHOUT
dodging away from him or if you blocked it because it's recovering speed
his too fast.
Skewer ****** --------------------------------------------------------
The most gruesome attack you can get on you... it will just pop you into
the air with it's horn. You will go flying too.
To avoid this attack, don't be an idiot and stay in front of him. Chances
are, if you are circling him counterclockwise you'll never get hit by this
attack.
Charge ******* -------------------------------------------------------
He will rear back, open his mouth a bit, and spread its wings... then once
it does that, it will charge very quickly towards you. In the event of it
being in rage mode, IT WILL GO EXTREMELY FAST!
This is the move I recommend the shield for, has if it has more than a few
paces to get to you, you'll have to block, otherwise you'll get hit due to
him being so friggen huge.
It's hard to make a good counter attack against this move, if he doesn't
have long way to travel and you get behind him, don't stay there as he
will usually always tail sweep.
Any ways, if you read the "Breaking Horn" section up above, ALWAYS try to
take advantage of this. But if you do break its horn, it won't get stuck
anymore.
*Great time to break his horn*
Burrow/Surfacing Combo ******* ---------------------------------------
You will indubitably see this attack many times during this fight. The first
thing you should do once you see him burrow is put away your weapon and
start running away at an angle. (If you have a sword and shield, a jump
attack can be used to get a final hit on the tail).
You are running for two reasons... the first reason is to avoid him when
he'll resurface, noted buy a trail of sand. The second reason is to be able
to run up to them once they resurface to attack the tail. This is a great
time to attack it... but once it lifts up, don't attack it anymore since it
you'll not only miss, but he will usually start up a tail sweep.
If you have a sonic bomb, you can use as he burrows to get some good free
hits in.
One thing to note, he will not move underground for about 5 seconds...
if he is enraged, it will be about 2 seconds, so DO NOT try for the extra
hits.
*Great time to attack his tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
Unlike most of the roars in the game, this one is one you REALLY want to
block. The good news is it has a long start up and the most obvious as well.
He will almost crouch down and roar with it's head up. Just make sure you
remember this as you'll need to block this if you plan on staying alive.
Also, but make sure you are facing his mouth, so if you are under him while
he does that you should turn around.

~Tigrex
Type: Wyvern
Bio: A flying wyvern that maintains its primitive origins. Prone to
violence, it possesses incredible ferocity thanks to its four limbs,
claws, and jaw. Inhabits a wide area, it has even been spotted hunting
Popo in the mountains.
My description:
The flagship monster in this game... and the most unique monster in the
game. Almost ALL of his attacks are new and exclusive. Hell, I'm sure if
you read all I wrote about all the monsters above, you'll notice I pretty
much copy and pasted a lot of things... well that because they are truly
all the same... not the case with him.
Now, before you even get into a fight with him (it will be in the
mountains the first time) you really want to be fully decked out in
healing items and at least one shock trap and 2 trang bombs. Flash bombs
are also a good idea for the mountain as you'll find out you'll get hit
with long range dashes pretty cheaply.
For this reason, I recommend something that can block, but make sure you
are at full stamina since the majority of his moves can hit twice.
If you think you are taking too much damage, look at your mostly negative
dragon resist.
Now it is absolutely crucial to always be circling him counterclockwise
to dodge the potential charges. Also you want to get off that tail as soon
as possible. Once the tail is off, you really have to make a choice onto
how you want to attack him:
You could safely attack the sides of his wings. The only problem with this
is if you have a weaker weapon, it could take a lot of time.
The best, but unsafe, time to hit him is in the head. The biggest problem
is that you usually end up inside of him... as in between his arms that are
usually on the ground. This only presents the problem when try to escape
with a dodge... and if you roll to the sides, there is a good chance you'll
get caught on his arms.
Another thing to keep in mind is his rage mode. Noted after a roar and by
blood vessel getting thinker on his arms and head... he well gain
increditable speed... I would highly recommend waiting it out... and this
is the part that makes him tough due to time (As you'll read in my intro
at the beginning, I couldn't kill the dual Rexes due to time constraints
before my PSP broke.). There is something you can do... he can be flashed
during this. Watch his movements as he can still attack... but only in one
direction.
He will limp once injured and fly away in no time... also he drops a
shiny if you get his teeth stuck in a wall. I wouldn't recommend picking
up the shiny unless he is out of the area.
Breaking/Cutting:
Scaring Face ---------------------------------------------------------
This gets smashed pretty quickly and I recommend doing it if you would
like some Tigrex equips. The best time to do this is to wait till he turns
into an attack. If you can't grasp that concept enough, do it after a
bite or if you get his teeth stuck.
If you are using a Great Sword, this is one of the easiest ways to kill him.
By charging up an attack and letting it go as he turns on you. It will
stun him which it good.
Forearm Claws --------------------------------------------------------
Another easy to break part. If you really want extra claws, you hit the
sides of the wings and aim towards the nails. It's better than doing this
from the front.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
The thing you want off the most as it will reduce his tail spin
significantly and make him have a sad face. Now, in smaller areas, you can
hit his tail almost every time he misses a dodge. If you have trouble
getting it off, the use of flash bombs and shock traps can really make it
easier. Also, you may get lucky and encounter a Tigrex completely clueless
and stand still while you hack at his tail.
Attacks:
Chomp ******* (Dragon) -----------------------------------------------
Different from all the other bites you've seen so far in that you really
can't screw around with this one. Instead of it standing still like every
other bite seen so far, it will actually move forward. Now if that's not
bad enough, it will STILL damage you if you get hit with his forward motion
in the arm area and EVEN if the tail comes in contact with you... a
true bullshit attack.
Best get the hell out of the way since he can do a dual bite and cover a
large amount of distance. If you are at "A" attack his neck AFTER his
forward motion.
A
| | <--- Forearm
\/\/
||
/\||/\

B
If you are at "B" attack his tail.
*Great time to cut off his tail*
Dash/Jump ******* (Dragon) -------------------------------------------
He will run at you, simple to avoid. If you are close and always circling
him, you'll never get hit by this. If you are far away, chances a bit
more slim. Now, this attack will be the bane of you once he is raged...
He can and will link multiple tackles in a row... usually nowhere in the
right direction. It will end the chain with a jump.
It can also jump without charging, but can be dodged in the same manner
as the Dashes.
Spin Attack ******* (Dragon) -----------------------------------------
A dangerous attack to people who think they are safe on its flanks. Well
you'll soon get to know this moves start up as it will wined up in a sort
of curved position. It will spin and will take up a large area on it's
sides and a bit in front of it.
Once you see this move, get the hell out of the way. If you don't think
you'll make it out, make sure you are blocking.
Attack once, and only once this attack is done with.
Rock Throw ****** (Can freeze in the mountains) ----------------------
When far away, he will put his claws to the ground and attempt to launch
three rocks are you. If you are close, you should be able to roll out of
the way before they hit you. If you are far away, you can block one with
no worry.
Just one thing to mention, DO NOT BLOCK THIS AT CLOSE RANGE as all 3 with
hit you, and unless you have guard+ you'll most like take a lot of damage
and waste all your stamina.
Roar **** (Sound) ----------------------------------------------------
You will get to really hate this due it marking the start of his rage mode.
He will usually jump back, put his arms firmly on the ground, wings will
spread a bit, and his mouth will be up in the air. Block this at all
costs... especially if you are close as it will do damage.

~Cephalos
Type: Piscne
Bio: Wyverns found only in the desert. They resemble a Plesioth, but live
and "swim" in sand rather than water. They seldom appear above land, but
when their hearing is disturbed...
My description:
These are you're little friends that like to swim in the sand. Before
joining a mission that says the word "Liver" in it, you may want to take
Sonic bombs and a hammer.
A Hammer itself can pound them out in a single hit from the top, while a
sonic bomb is the lazy way. I would try to knock them out first to
conserve "ammo" for harder missions.
Another thing to remember is that they are actually the biggest/longest
to kill of all the non-boss monster. In fact, they even retain many of
their moves. So if they don't die in a couple hits like all the other
enemies, don't worry, they will flop around in a little bit.
You can actually avoid most of their attacks with ease, but chances are
you want them dead for the item and in no danger of dieing. Get greedy,
one of the few times I recommend it since you don't want them to drive
back in.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Tail Whack ** --------------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away. Remember it only turns counterclockwise.
As the Cephalos is very small, you don't need to worry TOO much about this
attack as it not only easy to dodge, but not on the level as a bigger boss.
Bite ** --------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up
a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only
hit you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot,
get greedy.
If you are in range of this attack, chances are you can get to the side
of it and land the kill.
Hip Check ** ---------------------------------------------------------
He will turn to his right "heartless" side and try to shank you with his
right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of him PAST his head, you
can easily dodge out of the way in the same way he's facing.
Another move that bigger monsters have, but due to it's size, this is easy
to handle.
Belly Swivel * -------------------------------------------------------
Any annoying attack... it will simply just jump on it's belly and slither
in a random direction. You can't really counter attack till it's done, but
may as well give it a shot. This attack literally does no damage.
Touchdown Drive *** --------------------------------------------------
Like the name? This move comes out literally so quick, it's uncanny. Also,
it hardly seems possible (yes, I know it's a video game). Any ways, it will
jump out of the sand but will travel a LARGE distance.
Usually this won't hit you if you are constantly chasing them. If you see
one come towards you and see a pause in the sand, it usually means you'll
be getting hit with this one, or use the next attack.
Peek and Spit *** ---------------------------------------------------
More often then not, if you see it pause in the sand while close to you,
it will do this attack. If you suspect this move consult the picture.
|
==|==
* | *
#####
##### <-- Sand fades here, stand on stars to counter attack.
#####
This is your best time to get them out of the sand, so it is important
you capitalize during this move. There isn't any need to worry about the
actual attack, since you'll be besides him. Remember, hit them ONLY when
they are going back down... and don't worry, if using a hammer you can
still hammer them out of the ground when their fin isn't visible.
Sand Spit *** --------------------------------------------------------
See this move? The number one reason to NOT stand in front of him.
Although it isn't as dangerous as the next two enemies, YOU REALLY REALLY
REALLY REALLLYLLLLLYLYLYLLYLYLYYYY want to learn this move's start up.
It will stand a bit higher, and lift it's head up and then down, neck
extended.
Again, for prep for the next two enemies on the list. Also, a great time
to go for the kill is during this attack.

~Cephadrome
Type: Piscne
Bio: The alpha monster form of the Cephalos. Larger and armored with black
scales, they fit the appearance of a leader perfectly. Their fins hold a
paralyzing toxin.
My description:
Almost the same exact thing as the Cephalos, only bigger. They have the
size of a bigger monster, yet have about the health of any other "drome".
Now unlike the Cephalos, I would give those Sonic Bombs a try. Once he is
flopping on land, go to town on him. Most likely if you have 10 sonic
bombs, you'll be able to kill him in no time.
Also unlike the Cephalos, it comes out to land on it's own a lot more
and stays out of the sand a lot longer.
When it is above land, you can just get careless and usually end up
killing it... but on the G rank quests and such, it's better to just bait
into using easy to counter attacks like his sand spit. If you read up
there from the Cephalos, you'll see me stressing this.
When it is injured, it will usually limp to that section of the desert
with the water and the round rock in the middle.
Breaking/Cutting:
Fin ------------------------------------------------------------------
Best way to break this is to just get in a lot of hits while it is in the
sand... very easy to do through out the whole fight.
Attacks:
Tail Whack **** ------------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away.
!!!!!BUT GET THIS!!!!!
It only turns clockwise! Unlike anything you've ever seen in this game!
To best avoid it, you can very easily roll through it's legs to the safe
side.
Bite **** ------------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up
a bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided, and it will only hit
you if you just try to attack it from front and, like an idiot, get greedy.
This move is rarely seen in my practice since I'm either on his heartless
side whacking away, OR baiting him to do a longer range attack which has
him more open to further counter attacks, as apposed to a quick bite.
Hip Check ***** ------------------------------------------------------
He will turn to his right "heartless" side and try to shank you with his
right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of him PAST his head,
you can easily dodge out of the way in the same way he's facing.
About medium difficulty to avoid... since he has medium size. If you are
baiting him from the front, all you would have to do is roll backwards...
if you don't think you'll make it out in time, block.
Belly Swivel * -------------------------------------------------------
Any annoying attack... it will simply just jump on it's belly and slither
in a random direction. You can't really counter attack till it's done, but
may as well give it a shot. This attack literally does no damage.
Touchdown Drive ***** (Paralyze) -------------------------------------
Just like the smaller version can... only this one is just more ridiculous
as this thing is just so much bigger.
The only way to consistently avoid this attack is to simply chase him
while he is "swimming" so he doesn't get enough room to do this attack.
Peek and Spit ***** --------------------------------------------------
More often then not, if you see it pause in the sand while close to you,
it will do this attack. Unlike the smaller kind, you don't need to be
hugging it's ass to get an attack in, just make sure you aren't in front
of him as he'll spit 5 times about 30 degrees apart.
If you are close and can get behind in, you can land some nice free damage.
*Great time to break his fin*
Sand Spit ***** ------------------------------------------------------
Just like the smaller version, it will rear its head back and then lower
it, extending its neck to launch some sand at you.
If you are in front of him, THIS IS THE ATTACK YOU WANT HIM TO DO. Not
only does it leave him open, but it leaves his neck close to the ground to
get some GREAT damage in.
If you have a slashing weapon, expect him to die extremely fast.

~Plesioth
Type: Piscne
Bio: An enormous, flightless, aquatic wyvern with wings that have evolved
into fins for swimming. Although superficially fish-like, they can move on
land as well. They love frogs.
My description:
Probably one the most annoying enemies in the game... it's is also one of
the biggest.
BEFORE even stepping into the fight, you'll make sure you have as many
sonic bombs as possible, as well as a couple frogs. It also doesn't hurt
to bring in shock traps as well as items to make more of them
(Genprey Fang + Trap Tool).
The tricky part isn't killing him most of the time... rather getting him
out of the water... and to stay out. As you can tell, the sonic bomb is
used for just that. ONLY if it isn't wasted when he is raged, as he'll
just slash in and out.
If you are unnoticed... you can dip a frog in the water to fish him out.
Ever wonder why you could fish in some of these areas with no fish in them?
Once you see him all joyful and stationary, you'll see the bait go way
down (and not in his mouth by the way...) this is your cue to hit X.
Another thing to mention is that you'll want to kill ALL of the other
enemies before attempting this.
Now you'll want to fish AS much as you can... but it can sometimes be
difficult to tell when he isn't pissed without the aid of psychic vision.
But I would recommend using fishing the first time you encounter him,
after every time you die, and if you run back when the supplies get
delivered (G rank only).
So why am I telling you to fish him out all the time? Well that's because
once you do, it will flop around a lot... giving you a lot of free time
to attack it senseless.
Now this battle will usually take long... but if you see his Fin down and
don't have means to capture it OR get the 10 minute mark warning, you want
to attack it at the legs. Unlike most monsters, this one actually takes
good damage in his feet.
Otherwise, I AM ASSUMING THAT YOU ARE USING THE "LETS BAIT THE IDIOT INTO
DOING THE SAME ATTACK OVER AND OVER AGAIN METHOD." This means, if you want
to be safe, to run in little circles in front of his head a bit do make him
do his water spit attack. It takes practice, you don't want to be too
close as it will do other attack more often, and you don't want to be too
far as you won't be able to hit it as much. The perfect range would be
about where if he did his tail attack, you'd be circling the spiky part.
Making him do this attack, will make him closer to the ground...
and is perfect for the jump attack with the Sword and Shield. If you want
to use this method, a shield is recommend. Also, I prefer this method as it
is much safer from his hip check.
If you don't mind the risk of him dieing in water (you won't get any
carves this way), a good bow can tear his shit up.
Also when ever he is in water, you'd want to stand the hell away from him
to avoid absurdly damaging water.
When he is weak, his fin will fold back. To get a shiny out of him, just
fish for him.
Breaking/Cutting:
Back Fin -------------------------------------------------------------
The only time I can say it's easy to break this part of him is when he is
on his side. Nothing more than I can tell you besides you better go fishing.
Attacks:
Tail Whack ***** -----------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away. It only turns one way... but the fact of the matter is
once you see the sheer length of the prick.
If you can't get under his legs, you'll want to first block the tail when
it comes by the first time, THEN roll to the right. His tail is so long
and bendy, hit will usually hit you twice per rotation (assuming you are
blocking), but some times the second hit will register in your back area,
knocking you down any ways.
Just remember that if you are using my bait strategy, that this move will
almost always hit if you are in the targeted range... so block or roll.
Bite ****** ----------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided.
This move is rarely seen in my practice since I'm either on his heartless
side whacking away, OR baiting him to do a longer range attack which has
him more open to further counter attacks, as apposed to a quick bite.
Play it safe, don't bother countering this attack.
Hip Check ******* ----------------------------------------------------
He will turn to his right "heartless" side and try to shank you with his
right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of him PAST his head, you
can easily dodge out of the way in the same way he's facing.
The MAIN reason I don't screw with this beast up close is because of this
move. It is not only VERY quick (wait till you see the rage mode version),
damaging... but incredibly hard to avoid close up. In fact, unless you are
at that "Baiting" range, I wouldn't run, just face him and block.
Just remember if you plan to get to G ranks, this move will do about
50%-75% of your life. So learn to avoid it.
Belly Swivel * -------------------------------------------------------
Any annoying attack... it will simply just jump on it's belly and slither
in a random direction. You can't really counter attack till it's done, but
may as well give it a shot. This attack literally does no damage.
Chicken Run ******* --------------------------------------------------
A very "out of nowhere" attack that has loads of damage to back it up.
Want to know the best way to avoid this? Learn to remember his escape point
per area as it's always the same. Oh, and then don't ever go in it.
Floating Water Spit ******* (Water) ----------------------------------
While afloat it will fire water either in a strait line (that seems never
to end) or a large area in front of it... an ark about 135 degrees.
To avoid both of these, just stay WAY back and always move. The only time
you should be in distance if you have a sonic bomb with his face on it.
Water Spit ******* (Water) -------------------------------------------
It will rear its head back and then lower it, extending its neck to spit
some wa wa at you.
If you are in front of him, THIS IS THE ATTACK YOU WANT HIM TO DO. Not
only does it leave him open, but it leaves his neck close to the ground
to get some GREAT damage in.
Now although it takes much more damage in the gut, it is definitely the
safety place to be attacking. This attack is VERY strong, just like most
of all of his attacks, but it SHOULD NOT EVER HIT YOU.

~Green Plesioth
Type: Piscne
Bio: An enormous, flightless, aquatic wyvern with wings that have evolved
into fins for swimming. Although superficially fish-like, they can move on
land as well. They love frogs.
My description:
The same as the Tan Plessy, just it's rage mode usually lasts a bit long,
especially noticeable during the higher G ranked missions.
If you can take out the regular one, this one shouldn't be a problem.
Breaking/Cutting:
Back Fin -------------------------------------------------------------
The only time I can say it's easy to break this part of him is when he is
on his side. Nothing more than I can tell you besides you better go fishing.
Attacks:
Tail Whack ***** -----------------------------------------------------
This is his default attack when he turns. If you are in the way, you'll
get knocked away. It only turns one way... but the fact of the matter is
once you see the sheer length of the prick.
If you can't get under his legs, you'll want to first block the tail when
it comes by the first time, THEN roll to the right. His tail is so long
and bendy, hit will usually hit you twice per rotation (assuming you are
blocking), but some times the second hit will register in your back area,
knocking you down any ways.
Just remember that if you are using my bait strategy, that this move will
almost always hit if you are in the targeted range... so block or roll.
Bite ****** ----------------------------------------------------------
Another move you'll see over and over again. They will lift there head up a
bit and chomp in "C" pattern. It is easily avoided.
This move is rarely seen in my practice since I'm either on his heartless
side whacking away, OR baiting him to do a longer range attack which has
him more open to further counter attacks, as apposed to a quick bite.
Play it safe, don't bother countering this attack.
Hip Check ******* ----------------------------------------------------
He will turn to his right "heartless" side and try to shank you with his
right hip/body side. Now, if you are in front of him PAST his head, you
can easily dodge out of the way in the same way he's facing.
The MAIN reason I don't screw with this beast up close is because of this
move. It is not only VERY quick (wait till you see the rage mode version),
damaging... but incredibly hard to avoid close up. In fact, unless you are
at that "Baiting" range, I wouldn't run, just face him and block.
Just remember if you plan to get to G ranks, this move will do about
50%-75% of your life. So learn to avoid it.
Belly Swivel * -------------------------------------------------------
Any annoying attack... it will simply just jump on it's belly and slither
in a random direction. You can't really counter attack till it's done, but
may as well give it a shot. This attack literally does no damage.
Chicken Run ******* --------------------------------------------------
A very "out of nowhere" attack that has loads of damage to back it up.
Want to know the best way to avoid this? Learn to remember his escape point
per area as it's always the same. Oh, and then don't ever go in it.
Floating Water Spit ******* (Water) ----------------------------------
While afloat it will fire water either in a strait line (that seems never
to end) or a large area in front of it... an ark about 135 degrees.
To avoid both of these, just stay WAY back and always move. The only time
you should be in distance if you have a sonic bomb with his face on it.
Water Spit ******* (Water) -------------------------------------------
It will rear its head back and then lower it, extending its neck to spit
some wa wa at you.
If you are in front of him, THIS IS THE ATTACK YOU WANT HIM TO DO. Not
only does it leave him open, but it leaves his neck close to the ground
to get some GREAT damage in.
Now although it takes much more damage in the gut, it is definitely the
safety place to be attacking. This attack is VERY strong, just like most
of all of his attacks, but it SHOULD NOT EVER HIT YOU.

~Hermitaur
Type: Carapaceon
Bio: A small Carapaceon with an incredibly hard shell. Known to live in
great numbers in the desert, or lurking underground, one must be careful
when treading in its domain. Its brains are said to be a true delicacy.
My description:
Unusually fast for a crab and also one of the smartest enemies in the game
as it will side step to sometimes cut you off.
The good news, they aren't fast when they aren't chasing you and don't
take that much to go down.
Also, you can still do damage to them from the shell, but can prove
difficult to hit with a low sharpened weapon.
They are still worth killing just for the chance at getting the Pokke
Point brains.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Claw Attacks * -------------------------------------------------------
Just a simple claw attack. If you are using strong weapon, just damage
race them as they can't really kill you if you kill them first.
Chances are if you are reading this FAQ... you aren't looking for tips
on this enemy.

~Daimyo Hermitaur
Type: Carapaceon
Bio: A large Carapaceon with a giant monster’s skill on its back. Fond
of the sand, it is mainly seen in the desert or jungle zones. Living
underground, it surfaces when hungering for a snack.
My description:
A giant crab with an even bigger Monoblos skull for a shell. Now, you can
use many weapons to beat the hell out of this guy, but the best thing you
can bring is a happy hammer.
Not only is this only way to really break the shell, but it can knock him
down all the time.
Also, sonic bombs can get them out of the ground, but isn't needed too
much and is better to save them for harder monsters.
Regardless on what you use, you can go about attacking him in two ways.
1. Attacking it's face: This will do the most damage and you will still
occasionally knock him down. Since the thing isn't that strong and
sometimes will use a claw swipe in the wrong direction, you can add up the
damage. This isn't recommended for G rank, however.
2. Circle it till it does any claw attack, then attack its open legs on
the side. You will knock him down as well, but will usually not get hit
as much. Do this if he goes into a rage mode (blue bubbles constantly
emitting)
Nothing really too much to say but to know it can do a lot of different
things.
When it is close to dying, it will foam black bubbles from the mouth.
It will drop a shiny once it leave to another area and finishes eating
(You have to witness it.).
Breaking/Cutting:
Claws ----------------------------------------------------------------
Attacking its front claws will chip them. I wouldn't really concern
yourself too much in breaking these... if you must, just go after them
if you knock him down or when he blocks. Another good time is after he
comes back down from a high jump.
Shell ----------------------------------------------------------------
To get the credit for the shell, I believe you must chip it twice, and
break half the horn off... even if it isn't the case, it isn't hard to do.
Using "Smashing" damage is the only way to go about doing this. Just grab
a hammer and try your best to get to his back. It takes about 2-3 combos
to break each time with a decent strength hammer.
Attacks:
Claw Swipe ** --------------------------------------------------------
He will use this attack mostly if you are on it's flanks. Thankfully it
is very weak as it is quick and a pain to dodge if you aren't already
moving. The best way to dodge this is to roll in the opposite direction
at and angle away from him. If you have a way to block, this is one of the
few you should.
Claw Push ** ---------------------------------------------------------
This attack is the main reason you can't always attack him in the face.
If you do, chances are he will put his claws together an push. The good
news is that it doesn't do a lot of damage, and sometimes he will do this
attack in the wrong direction. Where ever you are, when it does this attack,
you should be hitting his sides.
Claw Hug *** ---------------------------------------------------------
This attack is where he will spread his claws and swing them both him,
trying to give you a nice big hug. For some odd reason, it sometimes will
go right over your head if are close to his face (to the left or right).
Any ways, chances are if you are in front of him, this move will get you
since it has a large sweeping range. Block if you must... but sometimes
it's ok to just take the hit.
Backwards Walking **** -----------------------------------------------
An annoying attack where is just walks backwards into you. The closer you
are to him, the better chance you have of getting out of the way.
You'll see this attack much more if you are hammering his shell...
sometimes you just have to take the hit if you are going for shell break.
Burrow/Pop up Combo ****** -------------------------------------------
It will go into the ground... the most IMPORTANT thing you have to do is
to put your weapon away and start running... If it is in rage mode in which
it will pop up extremely quick, just constantly roll as it better than
getting hit which you sheath your weapon.
Also you can tell he's near death when he starts doing about 6 pop ups in
a row.
High Jump ****** -----------------------------------------------------
This will only hit you if you are too close and are constantly attacking
it. If you see him tense up a bit, chances are he will be in the air in a
couple of seconds. Now you'll want to roll out of the way quick...
and stand back a bit since it has a large range. Once he does that, you
can get a good couple of cracks on his claws.
*Good time to break his claws*
Bubble Spit ****** (Water) -------------------------------------------
Probably the biggest bullshit crab move. Chances are, the bubble beam
won't ever touch you... he will foam from the mouth and take a while to
start up. The thing that gets me is that when he extends his arms out,
just the small motion will send you flying for a lot of damage.

To avoid this attack the right way if you are close if you follow A to B.
Don't try to go to C, I know, it's hard to condition yourself to run strait
backwards... but if you dodge to the side, you'll most like get hit.

~Ceanataur
Type: Carapaceon
Bio: An adolescent Carapaceon with an organic shell firmly placed on its
back. Once grown, this will be replaced by a giant monster’s skill. Mainly
living in volcanic zones, its is very aggressive, and not to be
underestimated.

to kill them. Again, as with the other crap, I doubt you came to this
FAQ looking for tips on killing them.

~Shogun Ceanataur
Type: Carapaceon
Bio: A large Carapaceon with giant monster’s skull on its back. Its long,
sharp pincers allow it to pierce volcanic bedrock and travel along
ceilings. Sometimes, a precious and valuable pearl can be found inside its
shell.
My description:
It shares similar moves and attacks to the other giant crap, except this one
has a lot longer/skinnier claws.
But in the same manner as before, you'll either want to go for big damage
in the face, or attack the sides after it attacks for a safer method.
Also, the hammer works just as good with this lobster, so if you want
shell rewards, make a strong one.
Again, the same with the other crab, it will foam black once almost dead,
and if you let it finish eating you'll fine a shiny.
If you want to learn the few difference, just read the attacks that have
changed.
Breaking/Cutting:
Claws ----------------------------------------------------------------
Easier and more practical to break than its red counterpart. The best time
to do this is either after a knock down or if it strikes the ground and
gets stuck. Breaking the claw reduces its range.
Shell ----------------------------------------------------------------
Just like the other crab, it can break three times. I don't think you
need anymore help besides "Smash it with a hammer".
Attacks:
Claw Swipe *** -------------------------------------------------------
He will use this attack mostly if you are on it's flanks. Thankfully it is
very weak as it is quick and a pain to dodge if you aren't already moving.
The best way to dodge this is to roll in the opposite direction at an
angle away from him. If you have a way to block, this is one of the few
you should.
You need to dodge a bit farther as its range is a bit longer than the red
crab.
Claw Puncture ** -----------------------------------------------------
Unlike the other crab, this dual front attack only strikes down. Not only
are its thinner claws easier to avoid, thus giving you a good chance for
an uninterruptible combo, but it can some times get stuck in the ground
for further damage.
Claw Hug **** --------------------------------------------------------
This attack is where he will spread his claws and swing them both him,
trying to give you a nice big hug. For some odd reason, it sometimes will
go right over your head if are close to his face (to the left or right).
Any ways, chances are if you are in front of him, this move will get you
since it has a large sweeping range. Block if you must... but sometimes
it's ok to just take the hit.
As I mentioned how sometimes it will go over your head, even more so with
this crab.
Claw Spin **** -------------------------------------------------------
A hard to spot move in which he will put his claws out and just spin
in a circle. If you suspect this move, you must get out of the way.
If you don't, blocking is the only answer.
Claw Walk **** -------------------------------------------------------
It will extend its claws out as far as it could, and start to walk faster
in the attempt to knock you on your ass. Although it has long range, if
you avoid or block the first attack, the ones that follow (he usually
does three) usually never are even in the ball park.
Backwards Walking **** -----------------------------------------------
An annoying attack where is just walks backwards into you. The closer you
are to him, the better chance you have of getting out of the way. You'll
see this attack much more if you are hammering his shell... sometimes you
just have to take the hit if you are going for shell break.
Burrow/Pop up Combo ****** -------------------------------------------
It will go into the ground... the most IMPORTANT thing you have to do is
to put your weapon away and start running... If it is in rage mode in
which it will pop up extremely quick, just constantly roll as it better
than getting hit which you sheath your weapon.
Also you can tell he's near death when he starts doing about 6 pop ups in
a row.
Water Jet ******* (Water) --------------------------------------------
Unlike the other crab, this one will only do its water move once attached
to the ceiling of a cave. The best thing to do is to just leave the area...
use an item, and come back. It should be down. Just don't stand under
it if it comes down... but why would you when there is a 8 ton lobster
shitting out of its shell?

~Shen Gaoren
Type: Carapaceon
Bio: A giant Carapaceon with an equally giant monster’s skull on its back.
Prone to roaming and fiercely territorial, any intruders will be met with
opposition, so nearby forts or towns must be warned of its presence.
My description:
I only fought this thing twice, but never killed it. Although you can, a
repel works just as good if you just want the mission over with.
Any ways, he's not actually after you so you might find him too easy...
and actually boring.
So here is what you do when going into a mission with this guy... Make a
hammer with at least 800 power. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the
Anvil Hammer... I know it one on the path a couple before the
Onslaught Hammer. Regardless, once you have one with enough strength,
now it's time for items.
10 Mega Potions
10 Potions
2 Max Potions
1-3 Mega Demon Drug (Depends on how many times you plan on dieing)
1-3 Mega Armor Skins (Ditto)
Once you have them, go into the fight.
I don't recall the map right now, but there are 2 different areas...
the castle gate --- and everything else.
When you are in the "everything else" area, go to his stomach area...
the part with all the legs popping out of it? You know, that area?
Now here comes the tricky part... hitting triangle about 1,000 times.
Do this for 35:00 or until it dies. If you do enough damage at the end of
35 minutes, it will run.
If you can't kill him after you get to this point... there is probably
something wrong... Although he's big, there is nothing hard about him.
Another tip to remember is you can climb up a ladder in the first area
and the third area you start fighting him to jump on him somehow to either
carve or lay a bomb on him.
In the final area you can step on the button to use the "Dragonator" to
do massive damage and use the ammo found in the supply chest to shoot
arrows at him.
Just make sure when you fight him, stay as close to the center of
underneath him as possible... the legs not only hurt you, but put you in
a quake status which for some odd reason makes you put your weapon away.
Breaking/Cutting:
Shell ----------------------------------------------------------------
I never bothered doing this... it was more or less I just wanted to get
the hell out of the mission.
Legs -----------------------------------------------------------------
Same as above... they don't break, just turn red.
Attacks:
I'm not even going to bother listing attacks as I don't really recall much
of any... not to mention you shouldn't worry about evasion at all... you
should be focused on just attacking... attacking... and more attacking.
Also, I would hardly call him accidentally step next to you or falling you
an attack.

~Bullfango
Type: Primatius
Bio: A large wild boar. Foul tempered, they will charge hunters on sight.
They are aggressive and powerful, so beware! They are often hunted for
their meat, which many hunters find delicious.
My description:
These are enemies that you should always kill first if you are fighting a

Type: Primatius
Bio: The powerful leader of the wild boars known for its enormous tusks.
More aggressive than a Bullfango, it is known to rush into a fight, and
is extremely proficient at locating a foe.
My description:
Probably the easiest of the Drome type enemies. All it will usually do is
just constantly charge at you.
As long as you attack its sides, then roll to the side of its ass before
it gets the charge off, you shouldn't get hit.

wait a few moments before following it as it will start behind you and

~Conga
Type: Primatius
Bio: Fanged, ape-like Primatius with pink fur. Prefers to live in small
groups as opposed to large packs, and particularly enjoys mushroom snacks.
If stumbled upon, it will be hostile, so beware of areas like the swamp
or jungle.
My description:
Similar to the Bullfango in terms of annoyance, except the fact they are
slower in general, slower to act, and may use another move instead of
simply running into you.
For killing them, anything should work, they aren't that hard and can
be stunned rather easily.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Claw Swipe * ---------------------------------------------------------
If you get hit with this attack, it's either because they caught you
carving/gathering or you aren't attacking them fast enough. As long as
you attack them, this attack won't have a chance to hurt... plus it will
die soon after.
Charge ** ------------------------------------------------------------
Just a basic charge, as long as you are looking at them and know it's
coming, its not hard to get out of the way. Roll and counter if you want
to kill.
Belly Flop ** --------------------------------------------------------
It will jump in the air pretty high and try and land on you. God help you
if you actually get hit with this attack... after it lands, the monkey
is pretty much dead.
Fart (adds smell) ----------------------------------------------------
If you see a yellowish/brownish cloud stay the hell away if you don't
have some deodorant... simple as that. I wouldn't recommend taking
deodorant if you just have to kill the little monkeys, however.

~Congalala
Type: Primatius
Bio: A large Primatius sporting pink fur often spotted in the jungle and
swamp zones. Fond of mushrooms, its diet affects its breath, which may be
poisonous or flaming. One can predict these traits via the food in its
local habitat.
My description:
A bigger monkey and the first one you'll most likely fight. First off you
don't need a shield and this is the first fight where good circling skills
are needed.
He has LOTS OF HEALTH... and you probably have a weak weapon. This fight,
if you want a chance at winning, most be fought strictly by capitalizing
on its mistakes and largely wide open spots after doing an easy to avoid
attack. The ONLY time you should attack him before he does anything is
during his pushed out belly stance, but only at the sides since you'll
bounce off the front.
The types of items it can drop depends on what it's holding in its tail.
More often than not, it is not worth any effort to focus on its tail.
It will limp once injured and retreat to a cave to sleep.
Since this is a counter-attack fight, just read the attack section on how
to deal with the monkey. For this time, make sure you have a lot of
whetstones and deodorant.
Breaking/Cutting:
Head Spike -----------------------------------------------------------
Anytime it will turn facing you can get a cheap shot in. Also another
good time is once it is on the ground after its triple punch.
Claws ----------------------------------------------------------------
Same with the face, just aim for the hands instead.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
Just hit it until it drops the item. In my opinion, probably the least
worth thing to break/scar/smash/cut in the game, so don't even bother.
Attacks:
Claw Swipe **** ------------------------------------------------------
Just your average claw attack. You shouldn't see this move that much,
and should hit you even less as you shouldn't attacking him head on.
Triple Punch Combo ****** (Adds Tremor) ------------------------------
He will do three punches while falling down at the final one. This is one
of the attacks you want him to do the most since once he is down, you'll
have more than enough time to get in lots of free damage.
Just make sure you get out of his range of punches AND fall, since if
you are too close it will make you shake.
*Great Time to break his Head spike*
Belly Flop ***** -----------------------------------------------------
It will jump into the air to try and crush you with it's stomach. Good
thing is, the move will never hit you if you are circling him. The closer
the wall is to you that he will most likely be stopped by, the greater
chance you have at hitting his back.
Fart **** (adds smell) -----------------------------------------------
Same as the small one... if you see a yellow cloud, don't step into it.
If you do, use deodorant if you want to use items with the "teeth" symbol
on them.
Crap Fling **** (adds smell) -----------------------------------------
I've only seen this a few times but it will throw shit at you with its
tail. If you are always on the move, this should never hit you.
Crap Breath *** (adds smell) -----------------------------------------
He will go on all fours and start sweeping the ground in a back to forth
motion with a stanky smelling breath attack. To avoid this, always move
to his side and then attack. You'll always want him to do this move since
it gives you LOTS of time to counter attack.
One thing worth noting, I never encountered one using more than one breath
attack in a fight... I think it's all random.
*Great time to attack its claws*
Sleepy Breath * (adds sleep) -----------------------------------------
Same as the Crap Breath but adds sleep instead and does a little damage.
Poison Breath ** (adds poison) ---------------------------------------
Same as the Sleepy Breath but adds poison instead and does a bit more damage.
Fire Breath ******** (Fire) ------------------------------------------
Same as all the other Breath attacks, but instead of adding an effect,
it just does a lot more damage.

~Blango
Type: Primatius
Bio: A Primatius covered entirely in white fur. Known to move in packs and
led by a Blangonga. The Blangonga exerts tight control over the group, and
any call to gather will be met immediately by the rank and file Blangos.
My description:
The better looking monkey in my opinion... and a bit more annoying since
they are usually ALWAYS with the boss monkey and are in smaller areas in
general.
Fight them in the same manner as anything else, but if you are going to
fight a boss with them, it's best to take them out since they always seem
to get in the way.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Claw Swipe * ---------------------------------------------------------
If you get hit with this attack, it's either because they caught you
carving/gathering or you aren't attacking them fast enough. As long as you
attack them, this attack won't have a chance to hurt... plus it will die
soon after.
Charge ** ------------------------------------------------------------
Just a basic charge, as long as you are looking at them and know it's
coming, its not hard to get out of the way. Roll and counter if you will
to kill.

~Blangonga
Type: Primatius
Bio: Leader of a Blango pack, it is twice as large and recognized by its
giant fangs and whiskers. It sends its pack to attack any trespasser.
Its jumping power allows it great mobility in its home range of the snowy
mountains.
My description:
The happy monkey that lives in the mountains. People... for some reason
think this guy is hard... I have no idea why. The good news about him is
that, unlike the other monkey, you can pretty much attack him at all times,
only fearing the ground smash move.
The key is to always hit him in the side, for two reasons. One to so he
won't charge at you... and two, so he'll always be turning. You'll want
to almost be under him some times... and if you are at the side, it will
cue him to do mostly moves you can easily dodge and counter back.
One thing to remember is to back the hell off once you hear him roar as
he does go crazy fast while enraged. This is where good circling skills
can come in handy.
I would recommend bringing a fire weapon and some thawing agents just in
case.
He will limp once injured and return to that cave to go nappy.
Breaking/Cutting:
Fangs ----------------------------------------------------------------
Very easy to break off... but only if you know the trick. As it says in one
of the books on in your house, use a fire weapon. Once you have one, it
will quickly be off as long as you target the face. The best time is if
you circle him and you set up a strong attack as he turns into it.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go for the tail unless you intend to cut it for
sure. This is for one big reason: His mule kick. In fact, this is only move
he hits me with anymore. If you are attacking the tail, you really have to
expect to get hit with this move a bunch of times.
Other than that, the best time to hit the tail is either when it is
knocked down or doing its snow lift attack.
Attacks:
Claw Swipe **** ------------------------------------------------------
Usually you'll see this move when you are trying to cut of his fangs.
If aren't in close and are constantly moving, you'll only see this if you
are attacking right in the front. This is why you'll always want to attack
from the side.
Flying Clothesline ******* -------------------------------------------
He will rear back a bit then jump with its arm out trying its best to
clothesline you. If you are always circling him, this will most likely
never hit you. If he is in rage mode, NEVER stop circling because this
move will come out just way too quick, especially in the G ranked modes.
If he comes in contact with a wall close behind you, counter attack only
after the jumping animation is completed.
Mule Kick ****** -----------------------------------------------------
Usually only comes out if you are behind him and even more when attacking
his tail. If you followed my directions in my description part, you'll
want to circle him, then attack his sides. There is a very good reason
I emphasize sides. Doing so will ensure you never see this move... but
just remember, you are never safe behind him.
Ground Pound ******* (Adds Tremor) -----------------------------------
He will stand up quickly on two legs and pound his forearms into the ground.
He will do this if you are under him too long... and once you see this
attack ROLL OUT OF THE WAY! You'll probably still get shaken up, but at
least you won't get dealt massive damage.
If you are attacking his sides all the time, this is one of the only moves
you'll have to look out for since it can really mess you up.
Burrow/Pop Up ******* (Ice) ------------------------------------------
If you see him go under ground, he is trying to pop up underneath you to
try and send you flying. If you are close to an exit, you can leave and
come back... otherwise put away your weapon and run like a chicken! You
won't see this move often and he usually does it from far away.
Snow Chunk Launch ****** (Ice + Can Freeze) --------------------------
If you see him bent over a bit lower than which he stands, chances are he
is grabbing an ice chunk to fling it in the air. When he does this attack,
it is a great time to ONLY attack his sides. Two things you have to keep
in mind... the actual lift does damage to you and the snowball doesn't go
that far and splits into a couple pieces. But again, the good news is
that this attack leaves him way open.
*Great time to cut his tail*
Frost Breath ******* (Ice + Freeze) ----------------------------------
In my opinion, the most dangerous breath attack... ONLY if you get hit
by it. If you do, you'll take massive damage AND be frozen. Best have a
thawing agent or you better book to the next area.
The good news is, just like the Snow Chunk Launch, he will be VERY
vulnerable at the sides... so that's where you should be when you see
him on all fours readying this attack up.
*Great time to cut his tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
A unique roar in which it will summon other monkeys to aid it. Not
that long of range, and unless he is raged, he won't usually get in an
attack.
Personally, I like to kill at least one monkey he called in front of
him just so he knows his call was in vain and he's a terrible leader :D

~Rajang
Type: Primatius
Bio: Ultra-aggressive creature that is rarely sighted and seldom survived.
Survivors report it exhibit’s a strange attack. The Rajang is said to be
a loner, and this isolated life has made it difficult to pin down its
territorial leanings.
My description:
Unfortunately, I don't have much info on this giant monkey. I can tell you
that he is much harder to fight than the other apes.
So if the attack section is small... it's only because I sampled a few
attacks during the one fight. Sadly, I did not kill it because my friend
had fun dieing too many times.
I wouldn't hurt to use lightning resist, but the thing is, I don't think
I got hit with a lightning move at all from him. Just always circled him.
One VERY noticeable thing about him is his rage mode... and if you ever
watched that crappy anime "Dragon Ball" he changes color in a very similar
fashion.
The last bit of advise is hear-say only... I hear putting him to sleep
is effective. So if by small chance you have a sleepy weapon, don't be
afraid to use it.
Breaking/Cutting:
Horns ----------------------------------------------------------------
I can't help you too much on this... as I wasn't in the fight long enough
to experiment.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
Same as above... sorry I'm lame and can't help you.
Attacks:
Juking Dash ****** ---------------------------------------------------
The only attack he actually hit me with... and it's really quick and
sometimes very hard to predict.
It's a dash, but a zig zag pattern. It's not like the dash the pony has
below, only because the monkey is so friggen big. The only thing I can
say is always circle him WELL and only attack his flanks... because you
will take full damage if you come in contact with just a little bit of him.
Punch Combo ******** (Tremor) ----------------------------------------
A very violent fury of punches. The good news is if you out turn him,
you have a great amount of time to counter attack. You see, just like
the other congo monkey, he will continually punch in the wrong direction
if you aren't in the way.
I don't recall him falling over however... but as long as you aren't
in front of him, you shouldn't worry about this attack.
Thunder Ball ******* (Thunder) ---------------------------------------
He will jump back and shoot a VERY large ball of thunder at you. Never
really got hit by this... and I can tell you, if you are running in
circles in attempts to circle him, this will never actually hit you.
GREAT time to counter attack.
Thunder Beam ******** (Thunder) --------------------------------------
Almost the same thing as above, but it will last longer.
Other Attacks? ? (?) -------------------------------------------------
He may have roars and other generic attacks... sadly I didn't play test
him enough.

~Kirin
Type: Pony
Bio: The Kirin is said to glow a faint blue, but so few have seen it that
details are scarce. It is apparently capable of calling forth lightning at
will. Kirin material is very valuable.
My description:
They call him an Elder Dragon dude to him being on all fours... well this
bitch doesn't give you Elder Dragon bones/blood... so I call him a pony.
The main thing you need to how before you fight him is patience. You need
it. You really need to pay attention to his attacks. Sadly, they generally
all start up the same... so you have to counter in the right stop at the
right times.
From the first time you see this Unicorn, you will undoubtedly notice his
lightning. These consist about 90% of the fight... has he will do them
over and over and over. I will get into them in the attack section and
likewise, the only time you should be attacking is AFTER one of these
attacks.
Before you enter a Kirin mission (and may I add that it will randomly
appear here and there.) you may want to consider taking in Hot Drinks,
Lightning resist, and power seeds/demon drugs to speed the process.
Also, you really don't need a shield, but if you choose to take one,
all of his normal (non lightning attacks) can be blocked without taking
guard damage.
The final bit of info, aim for his horn, it will kill him faster...
especially if you opt to use a hammer... which isn't a bad choice at all
to use.
Breaking/Cutting:
None
Attacks:
Dash **** ------------------------------------------------------------
A simple run is all he will do... and can't really consider it a true
attack as it's his simple form of movement. Now, the thing you have to
remember is to never stand in front of him. If you are attacking its horn
you should be doing it from the side.
Also, as I said before, this doesn't really look like an attack... but
I guess its horn is extra pointy.
Juking Dash **** -----------------------------------------------------
It will zig zag while trying to poke you with his horn. Now, you can try
to avoid this by guessing... which it might boil down to if you don't see
this coming.
Now, if you are close, you should be circling him, so this usually won't
hit you.
If you aren't close, you can stay in the center and he will usually zip
right by you.
If you are at mid-to-close range, guessing time if you don't have a shield.
Regardless where you, if you have a shield, you should block this to be
safe... as not only will he usually prance far away where a counter won't
usually be possible and no blocking damage.
Lightning Summon Strait Out **** (Thunder and Can Paralyze) ----------
He will summon lightning, the bolts will go strait out. If you are circling
him AS YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BE this will never hit you... and if the attack
you want to see. I still wouldn't attack him in the horn, do to it might
being the attack below... it looks the same and you don't want to get it
with a single bolt... since it can stun you, and lead to certain death.

(All the bolts are estimates, but you get the idea... if you don't, you
will surely recognize them after awhile)
Lightning Summon Strait Out and Back **** (Thunder and Can Paralyze) -
Same as the above, but it doesn't go out as far and comes back to him.
This is why you should always attack the side... or if you go for the
head/horn, don't get greedy.
3
2 4
1 5

|
Lightning Summon Eight Way **** (Thunder and Can Paralyze) -----------
A dangerous attack as it will use lightning all around itself. The best
tip is to remember that lightning never strikes twice in a row.
With this being said, the safest way to attack is on his left (heartside)
as it will go there sooner and you have a big area to hit. You don't want
to get in an opening during the 7th and 8th attack since it can freely
move after that.
Also, if you are using the Sword and Shield, try not to jump in at it
during this attack, you'll want to be as far away to where you just knick
him. This is because you may get hit with another bolt if you are too
close. A terrible time to attack since it will ONLY be your fault for
being stupid.
*
*^*
X|*
* *
*
Lightning Summon Self **** (Thunder and Can Paralyze) ----------------
No picture needed for this one, it will just summon lightning on itself
a couple of times. This attack is annoying as it will keep you in check
from constantly jumping at it when it lifts its head.
Unless you have a long weapon, you'll just have to wait this out.
Lightning Summon Self but Quicker ***** (Thunder) --------------------
Same exact thing as the attack before, but it will lift its horn up VERY
quickly. Not only does the horn count as an attack, but the lightning too.
It does come out quick, just remember that.

~Kushala Daora
Type: Elder Dragon
Bio: A metal plated dragon known as the tempest of wind. It is said that
if Kushala Daora is poisoned, its wind abilities decrease. Eyewitnesses
report violent storm alongside the dragon, and its wide range means towns
may be attacked.
My description:
Probably one of my favorite fights... great background music to boot. First
off, the missions containing Daora appear randomly. Now, before coming into
the mission you should bring Ice resist (if you suck at dodging ONLY). Also
you have a choice...
Bring a Poison weapon: Poison will take off its wind shield (I'll get
into that later) for the duration of the said poison. Usually you can
do with out, but if you are in a multiplayer game, you'll be a great help
if you ACTUALLY poison it.
Bring a Dragon weapon: As this is the first Elder Dragon you'll probably
fight, its doubtful you'll have a Dragon Element weapon. If you do, BRING
IT! It makes breaking his head MUCH easier.
Now, as I said up there about the wind shield... You see, Elder Dragons
don't have that annoying tail spinning attack. So to make them a bit
harder... and more defensive, they added little gimmicks to them since
you REALLY can mess up this dragon from the sides.
Now to get rid of the shield you can use poison (either from the poison
throwing daggers usually found in the supply box or from a weapon) or
breaking his face. Breaking the face will be the best choice as not only
will it stop his wind from the rest of the fight, but from all the other
fights until it dies. (Remember from now on, that Elder Dragons will flee
if taken enough damage at the 25 minutes mark or later if not killed...
don't worry, damage carries over.)
If you don't have the shield off of him, the best time to attack is AFTER
his Gust of wing breath as it will temporarily stop his cheap barrier.
Once you have his head off... continue to attack it for more damage...
but you could carelessly, literally carelessly, whale on his side and
very rarely get countered.
The only thing this will do is devoid attention to its other breakable
parts.
Also, if you are wondering why the wind shield is annoying... you'll get
bounced back if you come in contact with it, similar to wind pressure from
a landing dragon. Why is it worse you ask? Simple, it will knock you on
your ass so you get set up for potentially nasty attacks. Also, keep in
mind that if he jumps back, he will usually do a little "taunt" roar...
so this is another good time to attack him.
Breaking/Cutting:
Face Spikes ----------------------------------------------------------
Don't think, just break the head... in fact, no matter what you are
thinking, the FACE COMES FIRST. The best and ONLY time I want you to
attack his face is after the wind gust attack, not only because it his
wind is off for a moment, but it is wide open since it's head sticks out.
Again... BREAK the FACE as SOON as POSSIBLE!
Wings ----------------------------------------------------------------
Never broke it yet... have no idea how to. Sorry... but I usually kill
it too fast... or maybe I just didn't notice... or maybe I just don't
use large range vertical weapons.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
So... you want to cut the tail don't you? Other than the obvious times
to whack it (from knocking it down and after a few attacks), the best
time to do this is when it is flying. But PLEASE take note, I don't
**** around with him when he is airborne since he has a large and
damaging move set during this time. So good luck staying under him.
Be warned, you can only cut his tail when he are below about 40% of their
health.
Attacks:
Claw Swipe **** (Dragon) ---------------------------------------------
This is the usual outcome when attacking him in the face if you get too
greedy. It can also turn while doing this... so if you are attacking his
sides, make sure you are close to his back side as this will always miss.
Charge ******* (Dragon) ----------------------------------------------
This attack usually will only come out from long range, and since the
dragon is more skinny than fat, it's not too much harder to dodge. If you
are always circling him, this won't hit you... but this is his only defense
if you are "inside" his legs attacking his sides... so beware... it
doesn't happen much, but it does.
Dive Bomb ******* (Dragon) -------------------------------------------
Want to know the secret to dodging this attack? As soon as you see him
lift into the air... LEAVE THE AREA! Usually, and if alone, it will be back
on the ground. This is the safest way and the best way to save time when
worrying about this move. If you don't run, I recommend you stay
under/behind him as best as possible and whack his tail.
*Great time to cut his Tail*
Wind Gust ********** (Ice and Freeze {Only in the Mountains}) --------
This attack is the one you want him to do... and the attack you don't want
to get hit by. He will lift his head and front paws up, then come back
down... releasing a spiraling vortex of wind. It is damaging and can turn
you into frosty the snowman.
If you are always circling him, this will never hit you... unless you
happen to touch his wind and fall victim to this while on your ass.
Why do you want him to do this attack? Simple, it will allow you to attack
his head due to his lowered shield.
*Great time to break his Face*
Air Wing Gust ********** (Ice and Freeze {Only in the Mountains}) ----
The same as the above... only in air and no chance to capitalize on him
being wide open.
My strat? LEAVE THE DAMN AREA BEFORE YOU FREEZE TO DEATH.
Ice Breath *********** (Ice) -----------------------------------------
A VERY hard to dodge attack while it is flying since it will go back and
forth. Want my advice? LEAVE THE DAMN AREA! Only stay if you REALLY want
some risky hits to off his tail.
*Great time to cut his Tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
A wimpy roar... and you'll usually just get knocked down by his wind
during the "Oh crap, that hurts my ears animation." Don't bother worrying
about blocking this... chances are you won't see it coming any ways.

unclear. It is thought that shocking it may make it reappear, but this
is unproven.
My description:
One of the easiest enemies in the game... really. Just like the other
Elder Dragons, he will fly once injured after 25 minutes, doesn't
limp... and has if own gimmick.
Now think... "Chameleon"... yes, the bastard disappears... and finding
him in the first place will prove VERY difficult. If it wasn't obvious
by now, carry lots of psycho serum (and items to make them) and paint him
each and every time you see him. If you take an armor set with +15 into
Psychic Vision, it would help GREATLY!
Also, bring a lot of whetstones, and try to bring the sharpest weapon you
have as you'll be bouncing off him a lot. The best place to not bounce is
his sides.
Now there is a lot to say about this Dragon... but in all honesty it is
an easy fight.
First you have to make sure you know what you want... Do you want the
kill or do you want to break crap off of him?
If you want the kill, find him, paint him, THEN CONSTANTLY ATTACK HIS
SIDES!!!!!!! Do not let up. For the most of the fight, he will mostly
stand there taking damage while hiding. Do this with NO regard for safety
UNTIL the battle music begins... and may I add, I like the tune. I will
get into that in a bit...
If you want to cut and break stuff of this douche, bring sonic bombs and
pelt him with them when he attacks. If you do, he will show his face for
a small while... and I mean a very small while.
If you make him reappear, you won't bounce off him that much.
Now, for when he actually does start attacking (cued by the battle music)
you REALLY need to stay FAR away from his mouth the best as possible.
Why? He can steal from you, poison you, and fatigue you. Now, for stealing
anti-theft can do the trick... but isn't necessary. Poison, just make sure
you bring Antidotes as the supply box many not give you enough. Now for
fatigue, something you usually don't see. You will either need a bunch of
Meat or Energy Drinks if you plan on getting hit.
Other than that, he really still can't hurt you too much that quick as he is
always running away in his lame cloak.
Make sure if you want to pass the mission in due time, you need to hammer
the hell out of him... because if you just try to go for the tail, you
might not get enough damage in.
If you find out you can't kill him it time, try really hard to get the
auto tracker skill from the +15 vision skill, as well as a sharp
dragon/fire elemental weapon. The ESP skill from "Fencing" will make things
a lot easier.
One thing I almost forgot to mention... if you can paralyze it, I'm sure
it will become visible.
Breaking/Cutting:
Horn -----------------------------------------------------------------
I never tried for the horn for three big reasons... I couldn't see it for
half the fight... staying in front of him is dangerous, and he usually
doesn't have his head low enough for good strikes. Shame on me for using
the sword and shield.
If you really want to get it, use sonic bombs and knock him down.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
The tail on the other hand isn't hard to snap off at all... just make sure
you lower his health a bit like all Elder Dragons (they say around 30-40%),
then try your best to hit it. The good news is that he is mostly stationary
and his tail is low to the ground. The bad news is that you can't see it
most of the time and you'll likely bounce off of it a lot.
Remember, attack the curled up end to it, has the whole thing doesn't come
off... just that part of it.
Attacks:
Claw Swipe **** (Dragon) ---------------------------------------------
An attack you will rarely see, and nothing too hard to coupe with. If you
are attacking its sides like I mentioned you should above, this shouldn't
bother you.
Charge ******* (Dragon) ----------------------------------------------
His default "run into to you" attack. The bad news about this? You REALLY
sometimes can't see it coming. Sometimes you'll be hammering away at him...
then you can't find him... mostly likely if he is still in the same area
(only noted if he is tracked, such as paint) he will be farther away and
come in with this attack. To best avoid it at long range, you either need
to practice rolling at the last second or block. If there is any reason
to sport a shield during this fight... it is this reason. The good news is
that he won't do this too much.
Tongue Sweep **** (Dragon + Theft) -----------------------------------
The attack that is probably going to hit you the most... and the number
one reason I tell you not to stay ANY WHERE in front of him. This is a
practically dangerous attack... for many reasons.
It is quick thus hard to set up a block in time... comes out while he is
invisible... got a LONG range, AND steals an item! Sadly, the bad news
is it seems he likes your big potions a lot. Now, I wouldn't go as far to
say get anti theft (although, in all fairness, if there was an enemy to use
it against, it would be him), but if you are on his sides at all times,
this will not hit you.
Tail Thump ***** (Dragon + Tremor) -----------------------------------
This attack usually doesn't damage you... rather pisses you off because
it will make you fall over. It does serve an anti purpose to the dragon...
you can locate him very easily by looking for the wind circle. Also, keep
in mind, he does this about six times in a row.
If you equip armor with anti-tremor (I think the Blango has it), it will
give you MASSIVE free time to attack him... and I'm talking Shock Trap time.
Poison Updraft *** (Dragon + Poison) ---------------------------------
Literally, his ONLY real way to damage you if you are attack his sides.
Thankfully it is more annoying that threatening. He will literally jump up,
out of nowhere (and when I say nowhere, I mean invisible) and shit poison
at you. There is nothing you can really do to avoid this... but it is a
VERY good reason to stock up on antidotes.
Fatigue Spray/Loogie ******* (Dragon + Tired) ------------------------
This attack comes in two versions (I believe); in a quick long range hawker,
or a shorter, broader range spray. This is one of the most dangerous attacks
in the game, even more so if you rely on stamina and don't have a cure.
Not only does it damage a hell of a lot, but it reduces your stamina to the
lowest point... fortunately he is slow, so you can usually run to the next
screen and eat some meat and potions.
Again, just like all the other Elder Dragons, make sure to attack the sides
as this won't hit you and give you good time to counter attack.

~Lunastra
Type: Elder Dragon
Bio: A brutal female elder dragon with breath of flame and expert control
over fire. It is said that this control comes from the crown-like horns on
its head, but this has not been confirmed.
My description:
Very similar to Daora, with just a few new tricks. First off, this
she-devil uses fire instead of wind.
Now at this point in the game, don't bother with poisoning it to remove
it... rather, make sure you have a Dragon element weapon. You'll want to
break the crown AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Why do you ask? Well although the
fire doesn't push you away... it will quickly damage you. Thus, before
even entering the fight, make sure you are using things such as Max Health
items, Fire Resist, and possibly that immunizer they give you in the box.
Also, unlike Daora, her horns break in stages... I'm not entirely sure I
have this down to a T, but if you break a segment, the flames will stop
until she runs away... usually then coming out of lava. But if you break
them all the way, the fire will stop forever, and until you kill her.
This is the ONLY really way to make sure you have an easy time.
The terrain skill on armor will prevent damage from it, but if you have
the Dragon element weapon, it shouldn't be necessary.
There are many times to strike her head, mostly during attacks, which I
will explain down in the attack section, but another time, IS WHEN EVER
IT JUMPS BACK! It will ALWAYS do a mini taunting roar. Just try not to do
it in the lava, as you won't be able to hit it if it falls over in there.
Another thing to realize, is this is one of the few enemies that can adapt
to you constantly circling it. If you are used to just blinding circling it,
you will get hit by its direction changing charges. If you can't grasp her
trajectory, take a weapon that can block.
Also, you usually fight her in the Volcano... but if you are in the Tower
fighting her, make sure you beef up to the max before you enter the area,
meaning 150/150 Life/Stamina. Only use items during the fire burst
attack... again, I'll get into that in the attack section.
Breaking/Cutting:
Crown ----------------------------------------------------------------
The single most important thing to destroy on her. Besides the back
jump/roar thing it does, just do it during attacks I tell you to attack it
after.
If you can't destroy it fast enough, you'll either waste A LOT of potions
healing, or A LOT of time regenerating.
Wing -----------------------------------------------------------------
I can't say that I ever broke the wing, nor can I honestly say its worth
it... as you can get all of the items in rewards and carves any ways.
I can tell you that she does fall over from attacks in the face easily
and heard them bounce bombs could be effective.
Tail -----------------------------------------------------------------
Remember, just like all the other elder dragons, it can only be cut off
when it is low in health (30%-40%) so only go after it on your second
carry over fight with it.
Other than when it flies, most of the time you can actually whack at it
is risky... so make sure you have the life/balls to cut it.
Again, I will describe when to cut it in the attack sections.
Attacks:
Claw Swipe **** (Dragon) ---------------------------------------------
Unlike Daora, this claw attack has A LOT OF RANGE! It will usually hit you
if you get greedy and try to break that horn... but believe me, if you get
just 3 hits on the head, it's worth the trade off.
Also, the other time you will she this attack if you are attacking its
side... and it will actually sometimes hit you, due to the large sweep.
You'll get hit with this attack... sometimes you really can't do anything.
Jump ******* (Dragon) ------------------------------------------------
The number one reason to always be on the move. Nothing you can really do
besides that. The good news is that it can some times go over you.
You won't be seeing this attack too much...
Charge ******* (Dragon) ----------------------------------------------
Being able to dodge this attack will decide life or death in battling the
fire dragon... it can go in three directions...
^
^ | ^
\ | /
\ | /
\ | /
|||
|||
|
|
^
|
|
Now, rarely, it will only go strait... but say you are running one way...
it sometimes will turn and go in that direction. If you noticed it early
on, you can literally stop, and it will go right by you, and you may even
be able to get a cheap shot at the tail.
Now, the only reason I would block in this fight is if it turns, and you
already know its going to hit you.
Keep in mind, she is big and fast.
Tail Swings **** (Dragon) --------------------------------------------
She will lift her tail up high and attempt to whack you with it twice.
Now this attack will rarely hit you... in fact, I can't legally say I ever
got it with it.
The whole time it is doing this, you can freely hack the face or sides
up... if her crown is still in place, go for it, if it isn't, go for the
sides as you will probably be closer to it.
If you have the crown off... and have time to spare, you can get one good
hit in for the tail when the attack is over. Remember, she does TWO
swipes... and they are very quick.
*Great time to break her Crown and cut the Tail*
Flame Breath ********** (Fire) ---------------------------------------
She will breath fire... panning a great distance, first to the left
(heartside) and then to the right. Now, if you are circling her
counterclockwise while close, make sure to jump in once she starts to go
left with it. You can get in some GOOD head shots during this attack.
If the crown is already broken, you can try to hit the tail, but you
usually won't get there with too much time to spare.
Also, if you are far away, don't bother even trying to get to her...
the shear range of this is something to remember.
*Great time to break her Crown*
Airborne Flame Breath ********** (Fire) ------------------------------
She will fly... and this is about the only thing she will do. It is exactly
the same as Daora's air breath attack... What's good about this attack?
Free tail hits!
Also, unlike Daora, the tail is VERY easy to hit with mostly any weapon.
*Great time to cut her Tail*
Concentrated Explosion ******** --------------------------------------
A very weird attack... and no doubt you'll get hit with it because you are
an ass that is hurting a giant ****ing Dragon.
Ok, when it starts up, you'll see the Dragon "thinking" along with little
embers flaring around. Then all of a sudden, fire bursts will start going
off in a complete circle around her.
The bad news is, it can either go long range or close range. The reason
this sucks, is because it stands still for the WHOLE thing... and you might
get the urge to risk getting some hits in. I can tell you that if you are
at mid range, some times it will do the longer range one... while you are
running up close to get in an attack. BUT... if it happens to be the close
range one, you'll get hurt.
If you aren't one to take chances... or did to many times and are on your
final life with no healing options, stand back. This is a great time to use
items as well.
Other than that, you can equally good hits on BOTH the Crown or the Tail if
you want to risk it...
*Great time to break the Crown and cut the Tail*
Roar (Sound) ---------------------------------------------------------
A small roar... and something that she doesn't do often. Don't worry about
this one too much.

Type: Elder Dragon
Bio: A brutal male elder dragon with breath of flame and expert control over
fire. Its vile temperament means anyone who approaches is subject to fire
and brimstone. Known to attack towns, the Guild keeps tabs on its movement.
My description:
Very similar to Luna... the only two differences you'll really notice are
the lack of a flying breath and more damaging attacks.
If you need more info on him, scroll up... and replace the words "her"
with "his", and "crown" with "horns."
Breaking/Cutting:
Horns ----------------------------------------------------------------
The single most important thing to destroy on him. Besides the back

Type: Elder Dragon
Bio: A giant dragon few have seen and lived to tell the tale. When on the
rampage it wreaks havoc on all in its. The guild has built a fortress to
repel the best, but will it hold?
My description:
First thing to realize, is this mission is a 35 minutes bore fest...
especially if you did it solo like me. And I can bet if you are reading
this, you actually came here to look for it. In fact, I can honestly say
that this is the first mission (HR4-HR5 Urgent) that actually gave me
trouble... but not because of me dieing... but because of the race against
time.
Now, this is probably going to be the most detailed strategy here... and
mostly because I jotted it down (remember, my PSP is fried)
First and form most, equipment. All of it is generally easy to make...
War Stamp (Hammer, Rare 6/Socket with an Attack Jewel)
Rathalos Helm (Rare 4/Socket with an Attack Jewel)
Hornet Mail U (Rare 7/Socket with two Attack Jewels)
Hornet Vambraces U (Rare 7/Socket with two Attack Jewels)
Rathalos Tasset (Rare 4/Socket with an Attack Jewel)
Rathalos Soul Greaves (Rare 5/Socket with two Attack Jewels)
This will get you a large attack up with an already strong weapon. Also,
consider using the cat kitchen to boost it even farther as well as making
sure it is all at max defense.
For items...
01X Book of Combos 1
01X Book of Combos 2
01X Book of Combos 3
01X Book of Combos 4
10X Potion
10X Mega Potion
01X Mega Demon Drug (3X If you plan on dieing)
01X Mega Armor Skin (3X If you plan on dieing)
01X Max Potion (2X If you plan on dieing)
10X Gunpowder
01X Power Charm
01X Armor Charm
06X Well-Done Steak
04X Bomb Material
10X Large Barrel
03X Lg Barrel-Bomb
02X Lg Barrel-Bomb+
20X Whetstone
04X Exciteshroom
99X Stones/Paintballs (As many as you have, it's over kill... though)
10X Scatterfish
--- 10X Herbs (If plan on getting hit too much)
--- 1X Ancient Potion (If you plan on dieing)
---
Now, that leaves you with 3 free items... as the final items are only if
you think you'll die. (Ancient Potion is to get your health to 150 in case
you die a second time.)
*Assuming you took just the original qualities I listed*
Now once you get in the stage, eat the max potion, a meat, and both of your
mega drugs. This will open up six spots. Then make a farcaster by combined
the Shroom and Bomb Material. This will put you to five spots.
Go to the chest and grab what ever you want... you really don't need a map,
since it is easy to locate everything... paint isn't that important...
you have enough whetstones... the anti dragon bomb isn't part of my
strategy... just make sure you take the First Aid Kits and the Ammo for the
Ballista.
Any ways, rush to the beginning of area 2 where he will slowly make his
way. Hopefully you don't have club foot and make it there WELL before he
shows up.
Now, lay only the two Large Barrel Bomb+ down at the edge of the screen.
You should still have time left, so mix two Scatterfish and two Large
Barrel Bombs (non "+") to keep you stocked in the Large Barrel Bombs+.
Then mix two Large Barrels with Gun Powder to do the same.
The idea is to plant two Large Barrel Bomb+'s, then chuck a stone or paint
ball at them to make them explode, then plant the other two you just made,
and do the same. This is not only for nice big damage, but also for a safe
way to attack his head without getting hurt... and since he takes too long
to get in the area, you may as well get some free damage in.
Now once you do that, you should be able to get underneath him. You'll want
to aim for the belly where it kind of hangs down a bit. Now just triple
pound him till he is about to leave the area. I suppose you can use the
anti dragon bomb on him or get some carves in, but you really should
bother with it as you can get enough damage in by just avoiding going on
the back in the first place.
Now, the reason I have you make farcasters is because the most like time
he will hurt you, is when he leaves the area... the tail will most likely
hit you... so you a farcaster to bounce out of there. It will also allow
you to get a jump start in the next area to set up more bombs just like
before.
Repeat the above four paragraphs for area 3, 4, and 5. Once you are out of
bombs in area 5, hit him a few more times till he is about half way to the
castle gates.
Then use your last farcaster to run all the way back to the top (no point
risking the long ladder only to fall down it). Use the Ballista ammo and
try to hit him... then stay up there for a nice dragonator hit. It is
absolutely important you hit him with that.
Once you are out of ammo, jump back down and continue you to triple pound
his belly. It should be good enough to make him run away... and if you are
lucky, he might die.
Make sure you sharpen when needed... and every time you enter the safe
area. As well as heal via the bed before dipping into your Mega Potions.
Also keep your stamina at max, you never know when you'll have to run.
Breaking/Cutting:
Listen, I'll admit... I HATED fighting this boring fight... so I didn't
know, try, or even pay attention to what I could, can, or did break.
I can tell you, if you want things off, use the
ballista's/dragonator/anti dragon bombs.
Attacks:
Just like that giant piece of crab in this mission you fight in the
Urgent right before, it really doesn't attack... rather just walks. It can
do a few things, but it really isn't after you. If you follow the above
strategy, you shouldn't get hit till the end... and even getting hit there
is stretching it.

~Combination List
This is the list of Combos. Everything here can by made from the Combine
menu... once you make an item for the first time, it is saved in your list.
A little tip, if you carry books of combos, you will increase your chance
of not getting garbage. For example, one of the best items you can make,
The Ancient Potion as a 55% rate to make. This is tied with the lowest...
No Book of Combos = 55%
Book of Combos 1 = 60% (+5%)
Book of Combos 1 and 2 = 65% (+10%)
Book of Combos 1, 2, and 3 = 75% (+20%)
Book of Combos 1, 2, 3, and 4 = 85% (+30%)
Book of Combos 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 = 100% (+45%)
But you must remember that if you want the bonus from one book, you need
ALL of the books before it... So you can just take the 5th Book and get a
15%...
Here is what the numbers and such mean.
XXX YYY ABC -------- ZZZ
-------- DEF + GHI
JKL
XXX = Number as it appears in the Reference List
YYY = Quantity of the item you get (Sometimes it's more than one)
ABC = Item Created
DEF = First ingredient
GHI = Second ingredient

~Pokke Farm
This is your little farm... I'm not going to get too far into it, but
if you want an easier time, you can go here to get a massive amount of
supplies.
A great place for money... starting early with selling extra power seeds
then pawning off massive amounts of mining ore... oh, you'll get 99
Dragonite Ore before you know it...
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Field Row ----------- 0 Pokke Points
Available: From the Start
The Field is a place you can farm items. Just talk to the Cat and he will
ask you for Things to plant and Fertilizer.
The items you can actually plant are just about all of these:
Herb ---------- Red Seed --- Huskberry
Antidote Herb - Green Seed - Needleberry
Sleep Herb ---- Armor Seed - Paintberry
Hot Pepper ---- Power Seed
Now, when he asks for Fertilizer, you have three choices.
Worms, which you need five to bump a row up one level.
Dung, which will max one row.
Wyvern Droppings, which will max all rows. (all 3 if you have them)
Now you can sometimes gather under the Popos ass for some Dung by the way.
Now other than the items you originally plant, you may get some other items:
Dosbiscus ----- Bomberry ---- Cricket
Felvine ------- Dragon Seed - Ivy
Fire Herb ----- Scatter nut - Sunset Herb
Sap Plant ----- Worm -------- Sleep Herb
Cactus Flower - Frog
Not much else to say but the higher the Row Level, the more items you will
get.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Field Row +1 -------- 1000 Pokke Points
Available: When Starting the Elder Quests
This simply doubles the amount of items you can get from the "Field Rows"
by adding another row.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Field Row +2 -------- 1500 Pokke Points
Available: When Starting the Elder Quests
This simply give you 50% more items you can get from the "Field Rows" by
adding the third and final row.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Fishing Pier -------- 0 Pokke Points
Available: From the Start
You can fish, without the use of bait at the docks. You can fish up to 3
times. The fish you can get are:
Rumble fish ------ Sleepy fish ------ Sushi fish - Knife Mackerel
Small Goldenfish - Springnight Carp - Pin Tuna
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Fishing Pier +1 ----- 2000 Pokke Points
Available: When Starting the Elder Quests
This lets you access the second fishing point AND add another 3 times you
can fish, so you can catch up to 6 fish total regardless of where you
stand. Here are the fish you can get:
Rumble fish --- Small Goldenfish - Sleepy fish - Pin Tuna
Bomb Arrowana - Springnight Carp - Scatterfish - Burst Arrowana
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Fishing Pier +2 ----- 4000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 4 Elder Quests
This will allow you to fish in the final spot on the dock and give you
ANOTHER 3 casts. Which means you can fish up to 9 times from anywhere you
want. Personally, this upgrade is near useless in the long run. It doesn't
really new fish... just takes away some of the crappy ones. They are:
Bomb Arrowana -- Small Goldenfish - Scatterfish
Burst Arrowana - Springnight Carp
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Casting Machine ----- 6000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 6 Elder Quests
The casting machine is just a quicker way to fish... but only if you have
Nets. To make a net, you need to combine Spider web and Ivy.
The amount of fish that you can catch is based on how well you aim.
All the fish you can catch here you can also just fish from the docks.
Except for:
Plesioth Scale - Green Plesioth Scale - Ancient Fish

Mining Point -------- 0 Pokke Points
Available: From the Start
A simple way to mine for items without going into a quest or even needing
a pick axe! The items you can get are:
Whetstone --- Iron Ore ------ Earth Crystal - Armor Stone
Stone ------- Machalite Ore - Suiko Jewel --- Ice Crystal
Disk Stone -- Armor Sphere
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Mining Point +1 ----- 4000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 4 Elder Quests
Same as the above, only you'll need to go up a ladder to reach the second
point. Unlike fishing, you can only Mine 3 (sometimes 4) from each point.
Iron Ore ------ Earth Crystal - Armor Stone ---- Suiko Jewel
Machalite Ore - Light Crystal - Armor Sphere --- Akito Jewel
Dragonite Ore - Ice Crystal --- Armor Sphere + - BattlefieldJewel
Disk Stone
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Mining Point +2 ----- 6000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to Hunter Rank 4

this one for the Carbalite Ores...

[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Mining Point +3 ----- 8000 Pokke Points

Again, same as the above... just better items and a better rate. You'll
need to go up another ladder.
Machalite Ore - Rainbow Ore -- Hrd Armor Sphere
Dragonite Ore - Nova Crystal - BattlefieldJewel
Carbalite Ore - Union Ore ---- Lapis Lazuli
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Mining Bomb --------- 6000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 4 Elder Quests
It's very similar to the Casting Machine in the sense it lets you Mine
a bunch of things at once. I will base it off of what you actually have
unlocked... and gives you rare items quite often. Personally I like to
use those free bounce bombs they give you in the Lunastra/Teostra quest
for this. Here is what you can use, ranked from least to best.
Small Barrel Bomb
Bounce Bomb
Small Barrel Bomb +
Bounce Bomb +
Large Barrel Bomb
Large Barrel Bomb+
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Insect Ticket ------- 0 Pokke Points
Available: From the Start
The same as mining... only you get bugs and such. No bug net is needed.
Please keep in mind that each upgrade adds another bush.
Spider web - Insect Husk - Bitterbug ----- Worm --- Firefly
Cricket ---- Bug hopper -- Carpenter bug - Yambug - Flashbug
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Insect Ticket +1 ---- 3000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 2 Elder Quests
Same as above, only different bugs.
Great Horn fly - Vespoid Wing --- Killer Beetle - Flashbug

Mega Fishing Fly -- Rare Scarab ---- Spiderweb
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Bug Tree ----------- 6000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 5 Elder Quests
The Tree is sort of like Bomb mining/casting machine... just a quicker way
to get insects. The good news is you don't have to keep making items to
use it... just pay the kitty 300z.
Also, for best results, swing once the hammer has the glow on it to avoid
getting 1-2 crappy items. The more you have your Tickets upgraded, the
better bugs you can get.
White Hammer:
Vespoid Wing ---- Killer Beetle - Flash bug -- Huskberry
Vespoid Shell --- Rare Scarab --- God bug ---- Power Seed
Hornetaur Wing -- Carpenter bug - Bitterbug -- Armor Seed
Hornetaur Shell - King Scarab --- Hercudrome - Scatternut
Black Hammer:
Vespoid Wing ----- Hornetaur Wing ---- Carpenter bug - Flashbug
Vespoid Shell ---- Hornetaur Shell --- King Scarab --- Godbug
Vespoid InnrWing - HornetaurInnrWing - Rare Scarab --- Yambug
Great Ladybug ---- Great Horn fly ---- Hercudrome ---- Power Seed
Rainbow Insect --- Killer Beetle ----- Thunderbug ---- Armor Seed
Mega Fishing Fly - Bug hopper -------- Bitterbug ----- Huskberry
Gold Hammer:
Vespoid Wing ----- Hornetaur Wing ---- Rare Scarab --- Insect Husk
Vespoid Shell ---- Hornetaur Shell --- Thunderbug ---- Power Seed
Vespoid InnrWing - HornetaurInnrWing - Bug hopper ---- Armor Seed
Rainbow Insect --- Great Horn fly ---- Great Ladybug -Yambug

Mushroom Tree ------- 1000 Pokke Points
Available: When Starting the Elder Quests
The way you get mushrooms in the farm... good new is that you only have to
gather once and it will give a couple. These are what you can get:
Blue Mushroom - Parashroom - Toadstool - Chaos Shroom
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Mushroom Tree +1 ---- 2500 Pokke Points
Available: When Starting the Elder Quests
This upgrade not by giving you two more mushrooms you can gather, but
increases the amount of mushrooms you can get. There are the two new ones
you can get:
Nitroshrooms - Exciteshroom
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Mushroom Tree +2 ---- 4000 Pokke Points
Available: When Starting the Elder Quests
This upgrade increase the amount of mushrooms you can gather and adds the
"Dragon Toadstool" to the types you can gather.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Prototype Bee Hive -- 1000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 4 Elder Quests
Getting this will let you gather "Honey" and "Insect Husk" from the boxes,
close to the entrance to the farm.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Production Bee Hive - 3000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 4 Elder Quests
This upgrade will increase the amount of items you can gather and adding
the "Snakebee Larvae" to the array of items.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Modified Bee Hive --- 5000 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 4 Elder Quests
This upgrade just lets you gather more items... if you need to buy other
things, this one can wait.
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Trenya's Boat ------- 500 Pokke Points
Available: Get to Rank 3 in the Elder Quests
You can give this cat Pokke Points in order to "explore" and get items.
Now, unlike Capcom's other series with exploring (I'm talking about the
last three Breath of Fire game), this guy won't die.
I recommend not bothering him until you either need any of the items I
list or reach Hunter Rank 4 or 5 to get the best items. It will cost him
1000 Pokke Points to go out each time for the best items... but if you
wait till then, you'll be swimming in Pokke Points if you just Gather in
the G ranked Jungle.
Other than getting Boss Carves, Jewel (not just the base kind with), and
generally everything else you can easily get for yourself... you can only
get these items from him: (That can't be gotten anywhere else)
Dragon moss - Dragonmoss+ - Sinister Cloth
Dragon wood - Dragonwood+ - Wyverian Harp
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
Cave ------------------ 0 Pokke Points
Available: Get to the Rank 5 Elder Quests
This is the cave all the way at the end of the farm. To mine you'll need
two elder dragon bones.
Now once you get the hang of killing them, they will be everywhere in your
chest... but if you only have 2 left... and need a certain item, make sure
you save your data...
If you don't get the right item, then quit, then reload.
Dark Piece - Dark Stone
