Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After a rest at your house to save your progress (if you havent already) and to make any necessary preparations you should make your way to the Guild

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_15html (2 of 4) [212011 75144 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

Farm Aid

Client Old Farmer

Main Quest Slay 5 Jaggia (800z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Jaggi (600z)

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Your job in this mission is to kill some Epioth enemies until you collect their guts three times The Epioth monsters hang out in the deep pools at the top portion of Area 10 and Area 11 so youll need to swim underwater and hit them with your weapon If you have the bowgun this quest will go much more smoothly You can equip Normal S Lv2 that you find in the supply box then use those shots to take out each of the beasts Theres one beast in Area 10 that could very well yield you two of the items you need Then you can swim west from there to Area 11 As you arrive youll be treated to a cinema of a larger monster arriving Thats the Lagiacrus that has been terrorizing the village You cant really do much about it right now so return to Area 10 as soon as you can Youll find more Epioth monsters there now Take care of them in the usual manner Once you have obtained three Monster Guts items send them off to complete the quest and receive your reward

When you return to the village after the Lagiacrus sighting the villagers will have plenty to say about your

encounter You already have one more quest available to you but you should go ahead and talk to the chief and to the Fleet Captain as well Talk to Junior and hell mention that the Head Farmer wants to add a Shroom Box to the farm You can check the Villager Requests option from Juniors menu to find that a box can be built in exchange for 80 Res which you should easily have by now Go ahead and build it Another immediate attraction in the village is the Fishmongress who will explain how the Fishing Fleet functions and will hand over the Power Paddle item You can now send boats out to catch fish that can be turned in for resources Make sure that you do so frequently starting right now Then come back soon to see what fish were caught

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

Once you defeat the animals and return to the village youll find once more that the villagers are feeling chatty You can talk to Chamberlyne in your hut to learn about furnishing your humble abode The Wyverian Artisan can now craft charms for you and will give you a talisman if you visit him Speak with Junior to find that the Head Farmer would like to build an Insect Box You can have him do so if you turn over some Monster Fluid and 150 Res Visit the market and youll find that Book of Combos 3 is now available along with other inventory

After tending to the small stuff talk to the Argosy Captain who is standing near the chief He will give you nine Curved Fang items You can use these to master the Trade function Each item you offer fills part of your meter with green Then you can select items that you would like from your trading partner and hell work with you as long as the stuff that you have meets or exceeds the value of the stuff you want from him

Make any trades that suit you then talk to the village chief and finally the Itinerant Cook who is next to the Argosy Captain Hes a felyne who can cook important recipes for you After talking to him talk against to the Argosy Captain to receive a Voucher that you can use to get food from the felyne at his canteena later With that tended to youve done what you need to for now Save your progress then proceed with your adventure

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_23html (2 of 4) [212011 75417 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_33html (3 of 5) [212011 75602 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

the Guild Sweetheart though who will offer up a new standard quest and also an urgent one

Denizen of the Molten Deep

Client Fire Country Chieftain

Main Quest Hunt an Agnaktor (6000z)

Subquest A Wound Agnaktors chest (1000z)

Subquest B Sever Agnaktors tail (1000z)

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (2 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (3 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After a rest at your house to save your progress (if you havent already) and to make any necessary preparations you should make your way to the Guild

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_15html (2 of 4) [212011 75144 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

encounter You already have one more quest available to you but you should go ahead and talk to the chief and to the Fleet Captain as well Talk to Junior and hell mention that the Head Farmer wants to add a Shroom Box to the farm You can check the Villager Requests option from Juniors menu to find that a box can be built in exchange for 80 Res which you should easily have by now Go ahead and build it Another immediate attraction in the village is the Fishmongress who will explain how the Fishing Fleet functions and will hand over the Power Paddle item You can now send boats out to catch fish that can be turned in for resources Make sure that you do so frequently starting right now Then come back soon to see what fish were caught

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

Once you defeat the animals and return to the village youll find once more that the villagers are feeling chatty You can talk to Chamberlyne in your hut to learn about furnishing your humble abode The Wyverian Artisan can now craft charms for you and will give you a talisman if you visit him Speak with Junior to find that the Head Farmer would like to build an Insect Box You can have him do so if you turn over some Monster Fluid and 150 Res Visit the market and youll find that Book of Combos 3 is now available along with other inventory

After tending to the small stuff talk to the Argosy Captain who is standing near the chief He will give you nine Curved Fang items You can use these to master the Trade function Each item you offer fills part of your meter with green Then you can select items that you would like from your trading partner and hell work with you as long as the stuff that you have meets or exceeds the value of the stuff you want from him

Make any trades that suit you then talk to the village chief and finally the Itinerant Cook who is next to the Argosy Captain Hes a felyne who can cook important recipes for you After talking to him talk against to the Argosy Captain to receive a Voucher that you can use to get food from the felyne at his canteena later With that tended to youve done what you need to for now Save your progress then proceed with your adventure

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_20html (2 of 3) [212011 75349 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_23html (2 of 4) [212011 75417 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_33html (2 of 5) [212011 75602 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_33html (3 of 5) [212011 75602 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

the Guild Sweetheart though who will offer up a new standard quest and also an urgent one

Denizen of the Molten Deep

Client Fire Country Chieftain

Main Quest Hunt an Agnaktor (6000z)

Subquest A Wound Agnaktors chest (1000z)

Subquest B Sever Agnaktors tail (1000z)

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (2 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (3 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

After some character creation and a cutscene youll appear in the Moga Village at the start of a conversation with the chief He explains that a Lagiacrus is terrorizing the village Youll receive 1500z and instructions to find the chiefs son Junior

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After a rest at your house to save your progress (if you havent already) and to make any necessary preparations you should make your way to the Guild

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_15html (2 of 4) [212011 75144 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_20html (2 of 3) [212011 75349 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_23html (2 of 4) [212011 75417 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_33html (3 of 5) [212011 75602 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

the Guild Sweetheart though who will offer up a new standard quest and also an urgent one

Denizen of the Molten Deep

Client Fire Country Chieftain

Main Quest Hunt an Agnaktor (6000z)

Subquest A Wound Agnaktors chest (1000z)

Subquest B Sever Agnaktors tail (1000z)

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (2 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (3 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_11html (2 of 3) [212011 75703 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After some character creation and a cutscene youll appear in the Moga Village at the start of a conversation with the chief He explains that a Lagiacrus is terrorizing the village Youll receive 1500z and instructions to find the chiefs son Junior

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After a rest at your house to save your progress (if you havent already) and to make any necessary preparations you should make your way to the Guild

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_15html (2 of 4) [212011 75144 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

Client Fish Fanboy

Main Quest Deliver 3 Goldenfish (1500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Small Goldenfish (600z)

When you enter youll be advised that there are Goldenfish in Area 10 near the seashore Your Supply Box will contain Worms so grab those and head to Area 10 Once you arrive youll receive further instructions Follow those by heading along the right edge of the map on the beach Near the very far right side you can stand so that youre almost in the water Equip the Worm item and watch for the icon to appear overhead indicating that you can fish Toss in your bait then wait for a fish to latch onto it Quickly pull the worm out of the water along with the fish You can catch Sushifish Pin Tuna Whetfish Goldenfish and Small Goldenfish in this area Youll probably run out of worms before youve satisfied your quests so make sure to dig for more worms under the long log that you may have noticed off to the right when first entering Area 10

Farm Aid

Client Old Farmer

Main Quest Slay 5 Jaggia (800z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Jaggi (600z)

Once you arrive in the Deserted Island area start through it Youll enter Area 2 first where you should find two of the Jaggi monsters Head right from there to Area 5 to find another Jaggia and three more of the Jaggi monsters then from there travel uphill to Area 6 and youll find three more of the Jaggia monsters and several more Jaggi There are enough of the latter to allow you to complete Subquest A in fact Be careful of this group of monsters if they rush you since they can do some real damage to your life meter if its dwindling You can head back to your camp and rest on the bed to refill your energy if needed Then get back to the task and travel next to Area 7 where youll find the last of the Jaggia monsters that you need to defeat along with surplus Jaggi critters When you defeat the last of the enemies that you were required to defeat the quest will complete automatically

Guts Its Whats for Dinner

Client Manor Cook

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Your job in this mission is to kill some Epioth enemies until you collect their guts three times The Epioth monsters hang out in the deep pools at the top portion of Area 10 and Area 11 so youll need to swim underwater and hit them with your weapon If you have the bowgun this quest will go much more smoothly You can equip Normal S Lv2 that you find in the supply box then use those shots to take out each of the beasts Theres one beast in Area 10 that could very well yield you two of the items you need Then you can swim west from there to Area 11 As you arrive youll be treated to a cinema of a larger monster arriving Thats the Lagiacrus that has been terrorizing the village You cant really do much about it right now so return to Area 10 as soon as you can Youll find more Epioth monsters there now Take care of them in the usual manner Once you have obtained three Monster Guts items send them off to complete the quest and receive your reward

When you return to the village after the Lagiacrus sighting the villagers will have plenty to say about your

encounter You already have one more quest available to you but you should go ahead and talk to the chief and to the Fleet Captain as well Talk to Junior and hell mention that the Head Farmer wants to add a Shroom Box to the farm You can check the Villager Requests option from Juniors menu to find that a box can be built in exchange for 80 Res which you should easily have by now Go ahead and build it Another immediate attraction in the village is the Fishmongress who will explain how the Fishing Fleet functions and will hand over the Power Paddle item You can now send boats out to catch fish that can be turned in for resources Make sure that you do so frequently starting right now Then come back soon to see what fish were caught

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_20html (2 of 3) [212011 75349 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_23html (2 of 4) [212011 75417 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_25html (2 of 4) [212011 75448 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

the Guild Sweetheart though who will offer up a new standard quest and also an urgent one

Denizen of the Molten Deep

Client Fire Country Chieftain

Main Quest Hunt an Agnaktor (6000z)

Subquest A Wound Agnaktors chest (1000z)

Subquest B Sever Agnaktors tail (1000z)

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (2 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (3 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_11html (2 of 3) [212011 75703 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After some character creation and a cutscene youll appear in the Moga Village at the start of a conversation with the chief He explains that a Lagiacrus is terrorizing the village Youll receive 1500z and instructions to find the chiefs son Junior

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After a rest at your house to save your progress (if you havent already) and to make any necessary preparations you should make your way to the Guild

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

Client Fish Fanboy

Main Quest Deliver 3 Goldenfish (1500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Small Goldenfish (600z)

When you enter youll be advised that there are Goldenfish in Area 10 near the seashore Your Supply Box will contain Worms so grab those and head to Area 10 Once you arrive youll receive further instructions Follow those by heading along the right edge of the map on the beach Near the very far right side you can stand so that youre almost in the water Equip the Worm item and watch for the icon to appear overhead indicating that you can fish Toss in your bait then wait for a fish to latch onto it Quickly pull the worm out of the water along with the fish You can catch Sushifish Pin Tuna Whetfish Goldenfish and Small Goldenfish in this area Youll probably run out of worms before youve satisfied your quests so make sure to dig for more worms under the long log that you may have noticed off to the right when first entering Area 10

Farm Aid

Client Old Farmer

Main Quest Slay 5 Jaggia (800z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Jaggi (600z)

Guts Its Whats for Dinner

Client Manor Cook

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Your job in this mission is to kill some Epioth enemies until you collect their guts three times The Epioth monsters hang out in the deep pools at the top portion of Area 10 and Area 11 so youll need to swim underwater and hit them with your weapon If you have the bowgun this quest will go much more smoothly You can equip Normal S Lv2 that you find in the supply box then use those shots to take out each of the beasts Theres one beast in Area 10 that could very well yield you two of the items you need Then you can swim west from there to Area 11 As you arrive youll be treated to a cinema of a larger monster arriving Thats the Lagiacrus that has been terrorizing the village You cant really do much about it right now so return to Area 10 as soon as you can Youll find more Epioth monsters there now Take care of them in the usual manner Once you have obtained three Monster Guts items send them off to complete the quest and receive your reward

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

Once you defeat the animals and return to the village youll find once more that the villagers are feeling chatty You can talk to Chamberlyne in your hut to learn about furnishing your humble abode The Wyverian Artisan can now craft charms for you and will give you a talisman if you visit him Speak with Junior to find that the Head Farmer would like to build an Insect Box You can have him do so if you turn over some Monster Fluid and 150 Res Visit the market and youll find that Book of Combos 3 is now available along with other inventory

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_25html (2 of 4) [212011 75448 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

the Guild Sweetheart though who will offer up a new standard quest and also an urgent one

Denizen of the Molten Deep

Client Fire Country Chieftain

Main Quest Hunt an Agnaktor (6000z)

Subquest A Wound Agnaktors chest (1000z)

Subquest B Sever Agnaktors tail (1000z)

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (2 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_11html (2 of 3) [212011 75703 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After some character creation and a cutscene youll appear in the Moga Village at the start of a conversation with the chief He explains that a Lagiacrus is terrorizing the village Youll receive 1500z and instructions to find the chiefs son Junior

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

Client Old Farmer

Subquest A Slay 10 Jaggi (600z)

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Your job in this mission is to kill some Epioth enemies until you collect their guts three times The Epioth monsters hang out in the deep pools at the top portion of Area 10 and Area 11 so youll need to swim underwater and hit them with your weapon If you have the bowgun this quest will go much more smoothly You can equip Normal S Lv2 that you find in the supply box then use those shots to take out each of the beasts Theres one beast in Area 10 that could very well yield you two of the items you need Then you can swim west from there to Area 11 As you arrive youll be treated to a cinema of a larger monster arriving Thats the Lagiacrus that has been terrorizing the village You cant really do much about it right now so return to Area 10 as soon as you can Youll find more Epioth monsters there now Take care of them in the usual manner Once you have obtained three Monster Guts items send them off to complete the quest and receive your reward

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

Once you defeat the animals and return to the village youll find once more that the villagers are feeling chatty You can talk to Chamberlyne in your hut to learn about furnishing your humble abode The Wyverian Artisan can now craft charms for you and will give you a talisman if you visit him Speak with Junior to find that the Head Farmer would like to build an Insect Box You can have him do so if you turn over some Monster Fluid and 150 Res Visit the market and youll find that Book of Combos 3 is now available along with other inventory

Make any trades that suit you then talk to the village chief and finally the Itinerant Cook who is next to the Argosy Captain Hes a felyne who can cook important recipes for you After talking to him talk against to the Argosy Captain to receive a Voucher that you can use to get food from the felyne at his canteena later With that tended to youve done what you need to for now Save your progress then proceed with your adventure

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_23html (2 of 4) [212011 75417 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_25html (2 of 4) [212011 75448 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_11html (2 of 3) [212011 75703 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

wrong This section of the guide is designed to let you know what you might do wrong before you even do it and to give you some information on best practices We recommend reading through it before you get too far into the game and we also encourage you to read through the instruction manual Doing so can save you a lot of potential frustration down the road particularly if youre new to the series

Combat

There are two types of warrior in Monster Hunter Tri bowgun users and blademasters

Blademasters are your basic melee fighters Though it might not seem like it at first theyll likely have an easier time clearing the game because they can equip more powerful armor that makes it safe to get in close and really sock it to any monsters that happen to cross their paths There are numerous weapon types at their disposal Of particular interest are lances which have a long range and allow for good defensive play and switch axes that can charge up and change to a sword on the fly Basic swords are also useful since they allow for improved mobility and hammers prove worthwhile because they make it easier to break certain parts of the enemy anatomy for item drops

Character Upgrades

The character upgrade system in Monster Hunter Tri is unique and some of its elements can be easy to miss if youre not paying attention The most important thing to keep in mind is that stats arent necessarily what they seem Instead of going up levels from fighting monsters as you would in a typical game of this sort youll rely on gear forged by the Wyverian Artisian to make you stronger Each piece of armor has attributes that it ads or subtracts from your core setup For instance a piece of armor might improve your ice resistance by three but subtract one points worth of fire resistance If you assemble an entire suit of armor from that one type you could wind up with powerful armor that adds 15 defense to ice but subtracts 5 defense from fire So what do those defense points mean When an attack lands the defense points could mean nothing A dragon might breathe fire on you for instance and he might not do any more damage to you when you have -5 fire resistance than he would if you had 0 fire resistance Suppose that you have -10 fire resistance though Then you could be in a world of hurt because the game applies thresholds to your elemental resistance If youre a point shy of a threshold youll see no discernible effect at all while meeting or exceeding the threshold will suddenly find you with greater (or worse) defense against a given element Elemental resistance isnt the only area where that concept applies either There are various skills and boosts to other stats that you need to keep in mind If you equip enough

Bowgun users appear to have things simpler at first They can remain at a distance in many cases (though not too far) and pick off their enemies with elementally-charged shots Weapons are assembled from three components frame shaft and stock You can mix and match the pieces to create the desired effect which will affect everything from rate of fire to the number of bullets that can be chambered at one time Default ammunition is effective but to get the most from a bowgun youll need to purchase ammunition or combine common items to make it on your own Heated battles also include frequent moments where you must stop and reload This results in a defensive type of play that can make it difficult to quickly inflict enough damage to fell some boss monsters that you encounter later in the game

Beginning players are encouraged to stick with the blademaster character type even early in the game where its not as obviously dominant This guide assumes that youll be using melee weapons and suggest that you become intimate with lance-type weapons in particular

Once you settle on a weapon the next challenge is to master available combination attacks Your bowgun is capable of firing some bullet types in a rapid-fire manner if you mash the button for instance The lance can often produce three thrusts in rapid succession if you are quick with the buttons plus the switch ax can produce a whole range of strikes that youll need to see

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After some character creation and a cutscene youll appear in the Moga Village at the start of a conversation with the chief He explains that a Lagiacrus is terrorizing the village Youll receive 1500z and instructions to find the chiefs son Junior

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

Client Old Farmer

Subquest A Slay 10 Jaggi (600z)

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Your job in this mission is to kill some Epioth enemies until you collect their guts three times The Epioth monsters hang out in the deep pools at the top portion of Area 10 and Area 11 so youll need to swim underwater and hit them with your weapon If you have the bowgun this quest will go much more smoothly You can equip Normal S Lv2 that you find in the supply box then use those shots to take out each of the beasts Theres one beast in Area 10 that could very well yield you two of the items you need Then you can swim west from there to Area 11 As you arrive youll be treated to a cinema of a larger monster arriving Thats the Lagiacrus that has been terrorizing the village You cant really do much about it right now so return to Area 10 as soon as you can Youll find more Epioth monsters there now Take care of them in the usual manner Once you have obtained three Monster Guts items send them off to complete the quest and receive your reward

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

Once you defeat the animals and return to the village youll find once more that the villagers are feeling chatty You can talk to Chamberlyne in your hut to learn about furnishing your humble abode The Wyverian Artisan can now craft charms for you and will give you a talisman if you visit him Speak with Junior to find that the Head Farmer would like to build an Insect Box You can have him do so if you turn over some Monster Fluid and 150 Res Visit the market and youll find that Book of Combos 3 is now available along with other inventory

Make any trades that suit you then talk to the village chief and finally the Itinerant Cook who is next to the Argosy Captain Hes a felyne who can cook important recipes for you After talking to him talk against to the Argosy Captain to receive a Voucher that you can use to get food from the felyne at his canteena later With that tended to youve done what you need to for now Save your progress then proceed with your adventure

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_23html (2 of 4) [212011 75417 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_25html (2 of 4) [212011 75448 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_11html (2 of 3) [212011 75703 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item

Vitality-improving charms for instance you can increase the size of your life meter while that gear is equipped Or perhaps youll do something else and improve your ability to carry around heavy objects or to swim more quickly underwater or to run further without draining your stamina as much There are dozens of potential boosts and all are determined by armor talismans and decorations Always pay close attention to stats If you ever wonder what a threshold is for one attribute or another by the way just press and hold the B button on your Wii Remote as you hover over icons on the equipment screens You will see a list of potential boosts and penalties It gives you an idea of what to aim for and potentially lets you know what you need to change so that the dragon youre fighting stops doing so much damage with his blazing breath

in action to believe Once you start a combo though you will often find yourself forced to ride it out even if you stop pressing the button and see a monster charging you that you would very much like to dodge Before you start stringing together a bunch of attacks make sure that youve aimed properly and that your foe will still be in place to take all of the damage that you are theoretically going to deal

Combat comes down to a lot more than just dealing damage however you also need to be ready to go on the defensive when the situation calls for it (a frequent occurrence youll find) Your character moves fairly quickly when he doesnt have a weapon actively in use but he slows significantly if you are dragging a lance hammer great sword or other such item around You have to stop and put your gear away if you want to quickly retreat a time expenditure that can be enough to leave you open for vicious attack by powerful monsters from which you may wish to flee Quick movement therefore is best reserved for moments where youre trying to rush to get into position to attack If you are trying to run from a battle youll want to wait until your foe is momentarily distracted then put away your weapon and make a break for it If youre near the edge of an area when you decide to do that so much the better

As you battle youll find that certain actions deplete your stamina meter Stamina is indicated by the yellow bar along the top of the screen It drains if you run while weapons arent equipped it drains when you attack and it drains when you block attacks from powerful enemies You can refill it by walking around at normal speed or by standing still Your maximum stamina will slowly deplete as battles continue and can be refilled using items such as the Ration or by using your grill to cook Raw Meat that you obtain by hacking up monsters that you have defeated Even if you have a full and lengthy life meter combat with particularly powerful monsters can be close to impossible if you let your stamina drop too low Mind it carefully

Finally you need to keep in mind that you have a shield Know how to use it and know when to dodge instead For most of the games duration your answer is to use the shield If you hold it upright and face in the direction from which an attack is coming your trusty shield can block almost anything that your enemies might throw at you Skills are available to increase your defensive prowess as well Though you can dodge any attack that you face in the game sometimes the best thing to do is stand your ground and then counter after youve deflected a lunge or other attack Save dodges for sustained series of blows such as a barrage of fireballs or a cloud of poisonous gas

As long as you put the above to good use and become a master of fleeing from battle when it isnt going your way (a lengthy run back to your base camp or just to the next screen to safely consume healing items is always preferable to a quick and painful death) you should be able to triumph over every last monster that you encounter It wont necessarily be easy just easier

arent the only place to find great items either Youll also want to bring a selection of pickaxes nets harpoons and bait with you as you explore regions They allow you to find items through other means

Mining

Mining is one of the most useful types of item gathering Youll need a pickaxe of some sort The material that youre working with is rough so its a good idea to bring along a lot of the iron ones (easily purchased in the market) or even some mega ones Otherwise you could run out of tools in the middle of your run Generally youll find places to dig along walls in caves or where you see lumps of rock out in the open Youll probably have the most likely places memorized within a few hours As you dig youll likely find a variety of items that can be used to produce powerful weapons Some of the core ingredients can be quite rare You might need to make 2 or 3 trips to an area to gather enough and there might be only a point or two in a certain cave that yields what youre hoping to find

Bug Catching

Though you might not suppose that insects would be very important they actually serve as a core ingredient for various potions and such that youll very likely want to have with you on tough quests Some powerful equipment also requires you to find insects As you move through a given area just watch for butterflies hovering over patches of grass and shrubbery You can dash over to where they are and use your net until they vanish Youll usually get three to five insects from a given point Many points in the game will yield the same few bugs but there are special exceptions

Digging

Digging requires no items and is easy For the most part you can dig where you see bone piles either on ground or below the surface of the water Monster dens often are a good place to dig or along the side of fallen logs Mushrooms also indicate a good place to dig or flowers and cactus plants in the Sandy Desert area

Fishing

There are two ways to fish The most common method involves tackle such as worms and crickets (both items that can often be found by digging) You can fish in shallow pools of water in the right environments or by standing along the ocean shore Underwater fishing is more like standard hunting Certain swimming monsters (such as the Sharqs found in the Deserted Island environment) can be hit with your weapons to kill them However a better technique is to almost kill monsters using conventional means then to skin them using the harpoon to deal a death blow The harpoon can also be used throughout a fight to slowly inflict damage but its far less conventional than standard weapons It also tends to break fairly quickly

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

touch on the most common ones here If you need additional information check out the afore-mentioned sections for the full scoop

Is your question not answered

raquo How do I make more missions available

There are a number of points in the game where it can seem like theres no way to progress beyond your current point However the answer is almost always found by simply talking to a few of the usual suspects Junior the Guild Sweetheart the Chief and Cha-Cha Usually theyll have text bubbles overhead if they have something important to say Make sure that you read carefully when you see that indicator Youll usually receive a hint about how you should proceed If youre given details on how to turn resources into a camp make sure that you do so to access new quests The same is true if you have the option of assembling the Ancient Mask If youve talked to everyone in the village and youve taken care of any available tasks but still have no new options then its possible that you just havent cleared a critical quest yet Critical quests most often require you to hunt or capture a monster Not all of them are required but most are Clear any remaining quests that are already available and you should unlock new ones

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Is it better to kill monsters or capture them

The answer to that question depends on your purpose If youre looking for monster pieces to assemble some useful armor or weapons then you should generally capture a monster within a quest (meaning that you dont want to do it in Free Hunt mode) Monsters tend to net you more resources when theyre captured If youre looking for resources that you can trade with the Argosy captain however then you should hunt monsters in the Free Hunt mode and you should make sure to kill them When they fall in battle youll be able to carve them for a few goodies plus you can report your hunt to Junior back at Moga Village for rewards A final note when a quest calls for you to kill a monster you can bring along a trap and capture it instead Youll still complete the quest and youll still receive significant rewards If a quest calls for you to capture a monster and you kill it instead however youll fail the quest

raquo Ive upgraded my armor and talisman why no elemental defense upgrade

Remember that any effects you want to see will take place only when certain conditions are met If you start with an ice resistance of 0 and you add 9 points for instance you wont see any difference whatsoever You have to meet certain thresholds to see benefits As an example you can add 15 Vitality points to add 50HP to your life meter as long as the appropriate gear is equipped Thats quite the boost but a few points less will only boost it by 20HP and a point or two below that wont boost it at all This upgrade system prevents players from making their characters too powerful since its difficult to

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (2 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

manage more than 2 or 3 effects with any equipment set If youre wondering what the threshold is for a desired character boost by the way you can press and hold the B button while looking at status and equipment screens to see symbols appear Hover over the mark that appears next to a stat that interests you and youll see a list of the available upgrades (and downgrades which are something else to keep in mind as you tinker with your gear)

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

raquo Where did Cha-Cha go I completed a quest and he disappeared

Cha-Cha is an extremely useful ally but late in the game youll need to complete a few quests without him Hell eventually return full of vigor and happy to be alive From then on out hell fight by your side (and will play an important role in the final encounter) Just be patient and do your best to fight the tough beasts without the welcome support that Cha-Cha usually provides

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Where do I find the Pelagicite Ore

The Pelagicite Ore is obtained by mining in areas 5 and 6 of the Flooded Forest There are crimson crystals that form along the walls there You can pick at them to find the ore but it appears rather infrequently You may get two or three on one trip to the region and none on your next

raquo How do I get the Sharqskin

The Sharqskin is gathered from sharqs that you kill but you have to be careful not to kill them the wrong way Fight one and deal a few blows with a standard weapon so that the animal is weakened and about to die Then take out a harpoon to finish the job Investigate the corpse to obtain the Sharqskin

raquo Where can I find the Firedouse Berry

Kelbi animals carry the Firedouse Berry around with them for reasons unknown You wont find it by killing them in the usual manner however Instead you need to stun them so that they fall on the ground in a daze Hitting them with a weak blow from your shield (while equipped with a sword) seems to work most dependably When the kelbi falls to the ground quickly investigate its dazed body and youll

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_5html (3 of 4) [212011 75052 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

sometimes obtain the desired berry

raquo How do I get the Super-sized Dung

You can obtain the Super-sized Dung by defeating an aptonoth in the Moga Woods Check the forecast before you leave Moga Village If you see that herbivores are breathing its a good time to make a run to the area Battle aptonoths and watch for a particularly large and aggressive one When you defeat it and check its body you may score the dung which is useful for a Farm upgrade that youll want to make

raquo What am I supposed to do when fighting Ceadeus My quest ended in failure

You have to hit Ceadeus for pretty significant damage as you swim along an underwater passage with him He doesnt do much to attack so stay below his beard and keep hacking at him with your weapon of choice If you inflict enough damage hell thrash about wildly in the water ahead of the blocked passage leading from Area 2 to Area 3 then break it down Then you can follow him to that area for the second portion of the fight If you didnt do enough damage in time youll simply fail the quest and will need to try again Once you clear the first portion of the battle though you can skip directly to the second one on subsequent attempts (just jump down from the ledge behind and to the left of the tent in base camp)

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After some character creation and a cutscene youll appear in the Moga Village at the start of a conversation with the chief He explains that a Lagiacrus is terrorizing the village Youll receive 1500z and instructions to find the chiefs son Junior

From where you first meet with the chief head toward the lower right and up some planking to meet with the Carefree Lad and receive a Whetstone item Talk to him again and hell reveal that the chiefs son went east into the woods You should follow but only after youve purchased protective gear from the nearby armory You cant afford a lot just yet but some good armor and a decent weapon are a good idea You can come back for more equipment shortly

(Above Left) Buy some equipment before you leave Moga Village (Above Right) Battle the Aptonoth monsters to pick up some Raw Meat for Junior whom youll meet soon after

Once youre properly equipped head outside the village along the path leading east to the Moga Woods When you first arrive in the new location your goal is to find the chiefs son Junior An icon of the chief will appear on-screen to remind you of the fact and will direct you to the camp located on the east side of the area You can track your movement (indicated by the red arrow) to reach the hut on the map which represents the base camp Head there now while the chief briefs you on play control

As you proceed youll come across a field of Aptonoth monsters Theyre herbivores Youll fight them to learn about gathering materials Specifically you need to collect some Raw Meat from the first of the Aptonoth critters that you slay You can and should carve multiple times Then continue east along the map to find Junior Talk to him twice once for information and a second time to hand over a Raw Meat Youll be instructed to return to the village now which you should do

Once you arrive back in the village meet with Junior just left from the entrance Hell give you the BBQ Spit and your first proper quest He also tells you to meet with his father which you should do for the 1000z Now its time to purchase any gear that pleases you then youre free to tend to that first quest that Junior gave you

Fix Up the Camp

Client Junior

Main Quest Res (30p)

In Moga Woods head to Area 6 to find and defeat some carnivores Take the items that you carve from them httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_12html (2 of 3) [212011 75127 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

back with you when you return to Moga Village You should have 30p or more worth of resources enough to receive your reward

As you tend to that first quest which involves walking around the Moga Woods area in search of resources youll be walked through some general game options You can barbecue meat on the spit that Junior gave you to increase your stamina bar for instance Youll also notice that the map of the area has expanded You need to head to Area 6 to find some carnivores to defeat but along the way make sure to find some healing items If you start by heading toward Area 7 on the map which is off toward the left you can find the Blue Mushroom and some Honey by heading to the right along a stream bed Then backtrack left and continue toward Area 7 on the map

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

After a rest at your house to save your progress (if you havent already) and to make any necessary preparations you should make your way to the Guild

Talk to the Guild Sweetheart and she will present you with a potential first quest As she notes you wont be able to save your progress while you are attempting the quest unless you abandon it by talking to her again so make double sure that youve done so ahead of time and then make a solid effort to complete it in one attempt

Harvest Shroom

Client Clan Matriarch

Main Quest Deliver 5 Unique Mushrooms (500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (500z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (500z)

Deliver Unique Mushrooms Ripened Mushrooms and Choice Mushrooms to the Red Box on the Deserted Island You can find the mushrooms throughout the Deserted Island area where the quest takes place Make sure to dig up every last mushroom at each harvest point

After accepting your first quest from the guild youll find that you have been given 50 minutes with which to complete it Start by heading just left from the Guild along the dock Theres an opening in the back fence that you can use to get in a small boat It will take you to your destination Deserted Island This area is the same as Moga Woods except that you cant exit to the village

As you arrive on the island youll hear from the Guild Sweetheart She explains the purpose of three items on the island where you find yourself You need to touch each attraction to hear the explanation The Red Box just to your left is reserved for deliveries after you have found the items that are needed for a given quest The Blue Box contains supplies that have been provided by the Guild to help you complete your quest Finally the bed is located in the tent to the left You can use it to restore your status and health if youre poisoned or otherwise weakened by combat though stamina is not restored

(Above Left) Dig multiple times at any mushroom harvesting spot that you find to make sure that you dont miss anything good (Above Right) When youve gathered all of the desired shrooms bring them back to the Red Box to complete your mission

Now that you know where everything is its time to get to work on that first proper quest Grab any goodies that you need from the supplied chests including the area Map so that you can easily make your way to prime locations Even when you have areas memorized its not a bad idea to bring along that map to make things easier for yourself

Head down the main trail to arrive at a clearing From there you can explore the region Youll find Unique Mushroom items by digging at the mushrooms scattered around the map There are plenty of them all over the place if you look hard enough so you shouldnt find any trouble quickly finding them Otherwise the main area of interest is a deep pool of water along the far northeast portion of the map There you can find precious Red Coral Stone and other objects underwater (theyll automatically be turned in for precious funds once you complete the quest) or swim through a tunnel to find easy access to a bunch of rare metals Explore those places thoroughly if you have the time and search for mushrooms in each of the main areas You should be able to find the Choice Mushroom item that you need easily enough if you hit up all of the various mushrooms in the zone and harvest at each spot until theres nothing left Just make sure that you leave yourself time to return to the Red Box and claim your prize

Once you return to Moga Village after successfully completing that first quest a bunch of new ones will become available The game has now fallen into its regular flow

Note that while youre back in town you should talk to the Future Alpha Male to receive two Firefly items Talk to the Carefree Lad as well who stands near the gate leading to Moga Woods He will give you the Snakebee Larva You can combine that with the other item and if all goes well you will receive the Goldenfish Bait Now youre ready to get back to some quests Completing these should be easy and you can use any knowledge that you may have gleaned from exploring the Deserted Island area while completing the first quest in that region

Prescription Pick-up

Client Medicine Man

Main Quest Deliver 2 Kelbi Horns (600z)

Subquest A Slay 5 Kelbi (500z)

You can satisfy this mission by simply killing a bunch of Kelbi creatures They hang around on the west side of the map in Area 3 and Area 7 Youll most likely have to kill far more than 5 of them as you work to obtain the Kelbi Horn items that you need for your main quest which means that satisfying the terms of the subquest should be a piece of cake

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Because of your success on the Deserted Island you have a new area available for quests the Sandy Plains Several new quests have also become available

Bug Hunt

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Slay 12 Altaroth (600z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Ripened Mushroom (550z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Choice Mushroom (550z)

Youll head to the Deserted Island for this quest in search of some insects that you can slay There are some located directly ahead of where you first appear in Area 2 near a rotting log along the ground Next make your way to Area 3 and you should find a log along the left side from which the insects march You can find several of them at that location along with some felynes in the area that will likely make your life difficult as they try to pick your pockets Eliminate them and take care of the insects then backtrack to Area 2 and from there proceed to Area 7 to find several more insects that you can defeat to receive your reward automatically If you are worried about the side quests just make sure to thoroughly examine every mushroom throughout the map to obtain the ones you need for your bonus zenny

Secret of the Crystal Bones

Client Archaeologist

Main Quest Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 4 Giggi (200z)

This will likely be the quest that marks your arrival at the Sandy Plains area but theres no need to change up your routine just because of the new locale Talk to the Veggie Elder to receive the Goldenfish Bait then check your supply chest for a Map some Old Pickaxe and Torch items and other supplies Your starting point is along the northeast portion of the region If you want to complete the subquest head to Area 7 and youll find plenty of Giggi creatures that leap around near the large trees there alongside the Kelby animals To find the Crystal Bone items for the main quest you need to use the pickaxe in some of the caves in the region Area 6 works well for that Check along the right side of the trail just past the pile of supplies that should be visible along the caves left side as you enter from Area 7 You should equip the Torch as you dig to keep nasties away so that youre not constantly being distracted Dont go too far in or felynes will make your dig miserable The good news is that youll find the Crystal Bone item almost every time you attempt a dig

No Guts No Glory

Client Caravan Leader

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Subquest A Slay 8 Delex (800z)

This is a relatively easy mission Make sure that you grab both the Map and the appropriate drink to keep your temperature even (the desert environment is cool in the evening and roasting hot by daylight) Head to Area 9

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_18html (2 of 4) [212011 75208 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

and Area 10 There youll battle the Delex enemies They look like swordfish and they move around along the surface of the sand Youll have the easiest time hitting them when they draw back in advance of a charge or to breathe projectile attacks Wait for that then move in for the kill before they attack Youll get Monster Guts items only occasionally but you should have enough to complete your quest by the time you clear both areas of monsters (and should also receive credit for the subquest in the process)

Big Game Hunting

Client Head Village Guard

Main Quest Hunt a Great Jaggi (1000z)

Subquest A Wound Great Jaggis head (300z)

Subquest B Stun Great Jaggi (300z)

Your target in this quest is a Great Jaggi The Great Jaggi is a powerful creature who will run away when injured so make sure that you do as the Guild Sweetheart advises and grab the paintball item from the supply chest You can use it to ensure that you can track the Great Jaggi if it does decide to run As for the little matter of finding the beast it will make its first appearance in Area 6 When you attack youll find yourself facing the beast itself and numerous helpers You should focus on the main target and hit it hard with your most powerful shells but dont dare stand around in one place You need to be ready to keep moving so that youre not cornered and hammered by the Great Jaggis powerful tail It can take a lot of damage so make sure that you are properly prepared Otherwise hit it with everything youve got and you should take it out before it does the same to you

Of the new missions that youve received the most important one is the Big Game Hunting one However theres a good chance that youre not ready for it just yet First you should probably complete the other ones for items that you can potentially use to improve your gear

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

With the quest to protect the Shakalaka complete you can return to town to find that you have activated a new tier of quests at the Guild Theres a new location available for some of those new quests the Flooded Forest

Before you worry about the new quests talk to the villagers Youll learn that you can now take Cha-Cha the Shakalaka that you saved with you on quests He has powerful dances that can affect the flow of battle and tilt it in your favor If you talk to the Artisan you will find that he has a host of new gear available Its worth looking into that stuff for the tougher battles to come As usual you should also check your other irons in the fire Talk to the lady at the Market as well She now offers the Organizer Guide for 3000z which you can use to get more room from your Item Box (increasing the capacity by an additional 50 from 4 pages to 6) Its a potentially worthwhile purchase even at that price For gunners theres also new ammo available

With all of that tended to its time to look into the new quests

Rhenoplos Rampage

Client Bandaged Boy

Main Quest Slay 6 Rhenoplos (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 4 Crystal Bones (800z)

This should be a simple quest for you Simply find and kill the Rhenoplos monsters in areas 1 3 and 5 There should be 6 of them spread throughout those areas Mission complete You can stop by the cave first if you want to find some Crystal Bones for delivery on your subquest

Herbivore Egg Hunt

Client Newlywed Wife

Main Quest Deliver 2 Herbivore Eggs (1000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Herbivore Egg (1000z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Jaggia (900z)

This quests directions tell you to search under the tree in the oasis (located in Sandy Plains) for herbivore eggs You need to deliver two in order to complete the quest When you arrive in the plains grab the desired items from the supply box (including some drinks to withstand the harsh desert temperatures) and then make your way to Area 7 There are obstructions placed around the map so youll have to reach your destination by charting a course through areas 1 4 8 and 10 Kill any monsters that you encounter along the way in those regions being as thorough as possible since any enemies that remain will be a pain in the butt momentarily When you reach Area 7 there will be some Rhenoplos enemies gathered around a tree Kill them then a fourth one that will appear shortly thereafter Then head over to the tree and dig out a Herbivore Egg

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_21html (2 of 4) [212011 75222 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Dig around at the base of the tree in Area 7 after you kill the Rhenoplos monsters that are guarding it (Above Right) Take the Herbivore Egg that you obtain with you as you return to camp

Now that you have the egg you need to get it back to the red chest in your camp If you are hit by an enemy along the way or you try to roll the egg will crack The trick is to backtrack along the path that you cleared on the way to the egg Start by heading back to Area 10 From there backtrack to areas 8 4 and 1 trying to stay to the sides to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies who may have returned If you did your job properly on the way to the egg there shouldnt be any enemies but its best to play it safe The worst part of the journey back is Area 4 but you should be okay if you stay along the side

When you deliver the first egg youll satisfy the first subquest and more items will appear in your supply chest Now its time to repeat the process with a second egg to satisfy the main quest except this time there are some new barriers Youll need to travel through areas 1 2 3 4 8 10 and finally arrive at 7 Be sure to kill every last insect enemy in each of the locations along the way (they appear in 4 and 8) Stick around where the insects appear to make sure that no more will spawn There are around 12 in each spot Dont worry about killing the felynes in Area 2 and Area 3 since theyll continue coming no matter how many you slay Note that you cant ever kill all of the Rhenoplos enemies in Area 4 either so dont even waste your time trying once you have narrowed the number of them that appear at one time down to one Your main enemy on this mission is time so make sure to deliver the first egg quickly so that you have time to make proper preparations for delivery of the more challenging second one

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Your heroic actions have also been noticed by the Guild so youll have more four-star quests available to conquer besides the first one that you just completed The Guild Sweetheart also mentions the Paw Pass Ticket This useful item is awarded to you after you accept a quest and make an effort on it for awhile allowing you to return to town early if needed Talk to the other villagers (including the weapon shop owner who has new weapons available that might interest you) then see about those new quests and a new environment the icy Tundra

Lost in Blue

Client Tundra-expedition Member

Main Quest Slay 20 Baggi (900z)

Areas 4 6 and 7 should be your focus for this quest which takes place in the Tundra You need to hunt down Baggi monsters to the tune of 20 As you head around the map youll also run into a larger beast (a Gigginox) that likes to attack with poison and fearsome howls that stop you in your tracks When you see that fellow enter just run to a different area and continue your hunt for the Baggi monsters They look like Jaggi as you might anticipate but they can withstand more damage Your Spiral Lance should work perfectly against them if youre still carrying it around This is one of the easiest missions youve had in a long time so enjoy it and make sure that you sip a Hot Drink found in the supply chest so that the cold environment doesnt wreak havoc on your life meter

Leader of the Icepack

Client Tundra-expedition Leader

Main Quest Hunt a Great Baggi (1400z)

Subquest A Wound Great Baggis head (400z)

Subquest B Stun Great Baggi (400z)

Travel to Area 3 and youll meet your foe for this challenge the Great Baggi He behaves much like the Great Jaggi enemy that you should be familiar with by now except his attacks seem to come with more frequency and hes capable of breathing an icy blast that can catch you by surprise if youre not paying attention Fight him and try to steer clear of the Great Gigginox that also is in the area (looks like a large slug with wings and can stun and poison you from afar) Battle wisely and the Great Baggi will go down easily

Cold Stones

Client Female Geologist

Main Quest Deliver 8 Bloodstones (900z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Popo Tongues (600z)

Subquest B Light up cave in Area 5 (300z)

Head to Area 5 and you should find plenty of the crimson-hued rocks along the side of the passages You can pick at these with the Old Pickax items found in the supply box and they often yield the Bloodstone item that you need Other cave areas in the region will help you pick up the last few that you need if you dont find them

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (2 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

all in Area 5 Lighting up the cave while youre exploring Area 5 will make it easier to spot the stones Just get close to a given lantern stand and use your Torch item to light one Then put it away and move to the next stand to repeat the process Remember that lighting up the cave can attract unwelcome attention from the Gigginox so be ready to flee if he comes into view You can deal with him later on a separate quest

Hunter Killer

Client Wounded Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth and a Great Jaggi (3800z)

This quest finds you hunting a Barroth and a Great Jaggi at the same time Taking out the Great Jaggi by himself should be easy and something that you can accomplish within the first few minutes because hes weaker than normal That will leave you free to focus on the Barroth who also is weaker but still a very real threat Besides the two named beasts youll possibly have to worry about a Qurupeco that sometimes shows up You should mostly be able to avoid him if youre quick about taking care of the Great Jaggi since the Qurupeco doesnt tend to like the same areas of the region that the Barroth does Dont lose your cool and this quest should go just fine for you

Harvest Tour Sandy Plains

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

This quest is easy Just accept it and youll be taken to Sandy Plains Now run around doing whatever you like for several minutes Youll receive a notice that supplies have been delivered once youve been in the area for several minutes Check your supply chest to find the Paw Pass Ticket which you can then deliver to the red chest to complete the mission

Harvest Tour Flooded Forest

Client Felyne Tour Guide

Main Quest Deliver a Paw Pass Ticket (15z)

As with the previous tour simply spend some time in the appropriate region (for this quest the Flooded Forest) and then check your supply box for a Paw Pass Ticket once you get a notice that there has been a supply drop Deliver that as dictated by the quest and youre done

The first of the missions likely to give you any sort of trouble is the Leader of the Ice Pack one which finds you going up against a Great Baggi

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_26html (3 of 4) [212011 75236 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Great Baggi is no less handsome than the Great Jaggi and more dangerous (Above Right) It likes to use its tail attacks frequently enough that youll need to be good at rolling to survive the fight

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

Client Fish Fanboy

Main Quest Deliver 3 Goldenfish (1500z)

Subquest A Deliver 2 Small Goldenfish (600z)

When you enter youll be advised that there are Goldenfish in Area 10 near the seashore Your Supply Box will contain Worms so grab those and head to Area 10 Once you arrive youll receive further instructions Follow those by heading along the right edge of the map on the beach Near the very far right side you can stand so that youre almost in the water Equip the Worm item and watch for the icon to appear overhead indicating that you can fish Toss in your bait then wait for a fish to latch onto it Quickly pull the worm out of the water along with the fish You can catch Sushifish Pin Tuna Whetfish Goldenfish and Small Goldenfish in this area Youll probably run out of worms before youve satisfied your quests so make sure to dig for more worms under the long log that you may have noticed off to the right when first entering Area 10

Farm Aid

Client Old Farmer

Main Quest Slay 5 Jaggia (800z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Jaggi (600z)

Guts Its Whats for Dinner

Client Manor Cook

Main Quest Deliver 3 Monster Guts (800z)

Your job in this mission is to kill some Epioth enemies until you collect their guts three times The Epioth monsters hang out in the deep pools at the top portion of Area 10 and Area 11 so youll need to swim underwater and hit them with your weapon If you have the bowgun this quest will go much more smoothly You can equip Normal S Lv2 that you find in the supply box then use those shots to take out each of the beasts Theres one beast in Area 10 that could very well yield you two of the items you need Then you can swim west from there to Area 11 As you arrive youll be treated to a cinema of a larger monster arriving Thats the Lagiacrus that has been terrorizing the village You cant really do much about it right now so return to Area 10 as soon as you can Youll find more Epioth monsters there now Take care of them in the usual manner Once you have obtained three Monster Guts items send them off to complete the quest and receive your reward

Client Lovesick Kid

Main Quest Deliver 8 Red Coral Stones (600z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Sharq (600z)

For this quest head to Area 10 on your map Killing the Sharq monsters that frequent that space is easy enough if you equip powerful bullets on a gun and track one Sharq at a time Youll receive credit once you kill your third one Finding the Red Coral Stones can take more effort You need to look for silvery spots along the floor which are piles of bone Dig there to find the stones There are around four piles along the ocean floor in that area and youll have to check multiple ones to find the eight that your quest requires

The Sunken Treasures quest has been available for awhile now but theres also a new quest that the game labels as more urgent Its only available to you just now Tackle them in whatever order you like

No Love for Ludroth

Client Ex-Caravan Sentry

Main Quest Slay 6 Ludroth (700z)

For this quest youll need to defeat Ludroth enemies They lurk underwater as the Guild Sweetheart will tell you once you arrive on the Deserted Island map so you can expect to find them in Area 10 When you arrive a cutscene follows and three attack Defeat them however you like Your bowgun and ammo will go a long way toward making this battle easy if you have that weapon Once the land-based Ludroth have been defeated continue forward and head underwater There should be another of the creatures swimming around in the water there Defeat him then head to Area 11 where several more await you Defeat two of them and youll be advised that you have completed the mission Now youll be returned to Moga Village

The urgent quest thats waiting for you is important because it opens up your path toward additional quests of a more challenging variety You actually shouldnt have much trouble with it since you only need to defeat six monsters in Area 10 and Area 11 of the Deserted Island map Theyll go down pretty easily if you hit them with the supplied ammo for the quest Three will attack you on land in Area 10 and the rest are found underwater in that area and in Area 11

(Above Left) Defeat the first of the Ludroth enemies on land then head to the water to defeat the last of

them (Above Right) The villages will have things to say following your victory

Once you defeat the animals and return to the village youll find once more that the villagers are feeling chatty You can talk to Chamberlyne in your hut to learn about furnishing your humble abode The Wyverian Artisan can now craft charms for you and will give you a talisman if you visit him Speak with Junior to find that the Head Farmer would like to build an Insect Box You can have him do so if you turn over some Monster Fluid and 150 Res Visit the market and youll find that Book of Combos 3 is now available along with other inventory

hit you for massive damage with its powerful tail swings It also brings along smaller creatures who will slowly chip away at your life meter Naturally your primary goal should be to focus on the main behemoth Hit it with your most powerful ammunition if youre using a bowgun or move in close with melee weapons and be ready to block when you see it making preparations for a lunge

(Above Left) The Great Jaggi looks much like its smaller counterparts but its a great deal more powerful (Above Right) Blast your foes when its safe not when theyre surrounding you

After the fight has waged on for awhile youll see your target starting to limp away for a temporary retreat When this happens you should use a paintball to make sure that you can follow its trail The beast is most likely making its way toward a safe nest in Area 6 so youll want to look there first if you lose track of it If you need to you should also head back to camp to take a nap and restore your health That way you can return to the fight refreshed and theres less chance that youll sustain an attack that renders you unconscious You can save your restorative items for moments where a retreat to camp makes less sense

Keep battling your opponent and try not to spend too much time wandering around and wondering where he has hidden himself When you win youll satisfy the terms of the challenging quest Now head back to Moga Village

With the recent victory under your belt a single new quest is available at the guild

Whos the Boss

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture a Great Jaggi (2000z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Jaggia (550z)

Subquest B Slay 10 Jaggi (650z)

Capture a Great Jaggi rather than killing it The trick is to wear it down until it frequently runs away a short time after you follow it into a new location That means that it is about to die Instead of dealing a killing blow lay down a Shock Trap Lure it into the trap then quickly hit it with Tranq Bombs or with Tranq Shot bullets if you are using your bowgun A few direct hits to the properly weakened Great Jagi will do the job If you hadnt weakened him enough first hell escape and youll have to try again after getting more trap items by defeating the subquest challenges Note that when capturing monsters the easiest way to guarantee yourself victory (if

you have enough time remaining) is to let them retreat to their nest and fall asleep Then you can get close and lay down a trap while they sleep Wake them up by tossing a Tranq weapon their way then lure them across the trap and toss a few more to finish the job

Before you start in on the new quest talk to the village chief and then Junior a few times The Head Farmer is wanting some more support If you turn in 300 Res two Dung and one Super-sized Dung you can satisfy his requirements Youre not likely ready to do that just yet but keep it in mind Note that the Jagged Fire bowgun is also available to be crafted by the smithy if desired as well as the Commanders Dagger and the Rugged Great Sword All three require rare items to construct them For now you should return to your regularly scheduled questing

Your newest job is to capture a live Great Jaggi Youll fail the mission if you accidentally kill your target So how do you capture one of the beasts You weaken it then you lure it into a Shock Trap when the time is right Attack the Great Jaggi until he stumbles and falls to the ground When he gets back up continue to attack him as he slowly moves around the map Remember to mark him with the Paint Ball item as necessary

as you set the trap The best trick of all is to let your enemy retreat to his safe place (Area 6 inthis case) and then fall asleep Then you can place the trap easily and wake up the beast After placing the trap let the Jaggi run across it and then hit him with Tranq Shot blasts or with Tranq Bomb blasts before he breaks free If you wore him down enough before catching him in the trap youll manage to capture him Note that if you act too soon youll lose your precious items and the Great Jaggi will still be loose You can complete side quests to get some more items but its best if you use those only as a last resort

(Above Left) The villagers are all talking about a new arrival in Moga Woods (Above Right) You can head to the Guild to find out about a new quest related to the Shakalaka

After capturing the Great Jaggi as required youll return to the village to find that the villagers have more to say Mostly their words just amount to well-deserved praise and the revelation that theres a new creature in the nearby woods a Shakalaka You can investigate by visiting the Guild to take on a brand new Urgent Quest

Shakalaka Savior

Client Carefree Lad

Main Quest Protect the Shakalaka (60z)

Subquest A Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Subquest B Protect the Shakalaka (NA)

Find the Shakalaka on the map (indicated by a light green square) and defeat enemies that surround him Hell blink over to a different area so continue following him and defeating enemies as necessary until he arrives safely at camp Follow him there and claim your prize

Start by noting the location of Shakalaka (indicated as a light green box icon) on the map Then head to that location quickly You should have plenty of time to reach the spot if you hustle When you arrive you will be greeted by a scene depicting the little fellow waking up some monsters Now you need to defeat those before they do too much damage to the Shakalakas life meter also indicated on-screen The monsters arent that tough so the task should be easy

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) The Shakalaka a self-described pacifist is about to become lunch (Above Right) His enemies are fierce so be ready to inflict a lot of damage on multiple targets in short order if you mean to protect the Shakalaka

Once they are defeated the Shakalaka will disappear for a moment giving you time to scavenge corpses When he reappears elsewhere on the map hell be crying for help once more Rush to the new location and repeat the process then from there rush to yet another location to take care of a third enemy group When the last of those go down the Shakalaka will likely reappear on the map this time in the safety of your camp Your mission is complete if so Return to him and receive your reward

Pest Control

Client Cattle Rancher

Main Quest Slay 12 Bnahabra (800z)

Subquest A Deliver 3 Royal Rhinos (800z)

You need to kill 12 Bnahabra which is easy except for the part where you have to find them There are two of them in Area 4 buzzing near the trees on the bank overlooking the deep pool of water You can blast two more in Area 7 also near the trees Area 9 is good for three more One is visible right as you enter then you can head across some fern-covered ground to find another one From there duck low and pass through an opening on the northeast part of the map still in Area 9 to find a hidden recess where the third one is flying around near the ground From there climb up over the slight embankment to reach Area 10 where you can finish catching insects Theyll keep coming so you can finish the job even if you missed some along the way

The Deadliest Catch

Client Flooded Forest Guardsman

Main Quest Slay 7 Ludroth (800z)

Subquest A Slay 3 Catfish (600z)

You only need to worry about killing Ludroth monsters to complete this quest Youll find one ahead of you as you enter Area 1 Proceed onward from there to Area 4 where youll see two more as you enter Then dive into the water here to find a Catfish lair You can likely kill three of these pretty easy with bowgun fire if thats your weapon of choice or with careful slashes from a melee weapon Then proceed to Area 6 You can jump from the ledge where you find yourself to dive into a pool of water There youll find three more Ludroth creatures waiting Kill them then swim into Area 8 and be ready for a battle There will be a bunch of Ludroth monsters here If youve been doing well you need to kill only one more to satisfy the terms of your quest

Playing with Fire

Client Red-cheeked Huntress

Main Quest Hunt a Qurupeco (1800z)

Subquest A Pitfall Trap Qurupeco (200z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Your goal for this mission is to hunt a Qurupeco Its the creature that you may recall the village chief talking about For your first attempt at this quest youll want to head to Area 8 to see a sequence depicting your target flying away from some other enemies Avoid them and proceed in the direction that the bird flew likely to Area 3 and from there to Area 4 where the bird is finally positioned so that you can actually interact with it When you find the bird start by hitting him with a Paintball so that you can track him if he flees Inflict damage with the gun until you see the bird puffing up its chest to call for help You can either throw a Sonic Bomb at that point to drown out its cries or you can hit its puffed up chest with bullets to deflate the critter If you dont drown out or prevent its cries for help you will need to contend with another tough monster such as a Great Jaggia or a few Rhenoplos foes Continue fighting and following the bird as necessary until you finally defeat it

When you attempt the Playing with Fire quest youll have your work cut out for you You should save it for httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_22html (2 of 4) [212011 75403 PM]

last so that you have time to gather goodies and construct some better armor Then when youre ready accept the quest

(Above Left) The Qurupeco is a large bird with limited flying mobility (Above Right) When you see it puffing up its large red chest either hit the bulge with bullets or toss a Sonic Bomb to drown out its calls for reinforcements

Your job in the new quest is to hunt the Qurupeco As youll find its one tough bird Unless youve really beefed up your offenses a bowgun isnt really the right tool to use You should bring the most powerful standard sword that you can craft and be ready to use a lot of combo moves That will help as you search for and battle the Qurupeco You should find your target in Area 8 the first (and if you do well last) time that you attempt the quest From there youll have to follow it around until it lands and is ready to fight However dont expect an easy go of it The bird charges you (roll out of the way) and it can hit you with a flurry of pecking powerful wing strikes or poisonous globs Its worst attack comes when it beats the tips of its wings together several times Following that tell you can expect the Qurupeco to strike with a series of powerful blows Be ready to roll out of the way of each pounce or youll take major damage You can roll out of the way of all attacks for that matter if you see them coming and react in time Then you should move in and deal some damage before rolling out of range again for subsequent rushes

As the battle wears on your target will occasionally pause to puff up its chest and call for help You dont need such complications so make sure that youre ready to chuck a Sonic Bomb (it drowns out the noise) or to fire shots at the chest if youre equipped with a bowgun You can deflate your foes bulge before it gets a chance to put its mimicry to use Continue fighting dodging and preventing reinforcements from being summoned Keeping it from summoning friends can prove difficult so be ready to dodge new arrivals if youre not successful in the attempt The bird will flee regularly once you almost have it killed so mark it with a paintball as necessary Follow it around the area hit it with everything youve got and you should emerge the victor

grinding for supplies to make new stuff) then check out the Guild to see about those new quests

As you might anticipate one of your new tasks is to capture a Qurupeco like the one that you just defeated Thats not good news if you had a rough time killing one obviously but theres no helping it

Trapping a Trickster

Client Newbie Hunter

Main Quest Capture a Qurupeco (3600z)

Subquest A Wound Qurupecos head (400z)

Subquest B Destroy Qurupecos flint (400z)

This quest takes place in the Deserted Island area Youll need to fight the Qurupeco monster as you did its predecessor but when it starts limping you should trap it with gear snagged from the supply chest For the most part the bird will stay along the right side of the map though it may retreat to its nest in Area 8 when youve about slain it Youll have Tranq Bomb and EZ Shock Trap items to aid with the capture effort You might want to hold off on grabbing the items that will aid in the capture until you see the bird actually limping and about ready to be caught You can always return to camp to grab them at that point and itll spare you the agony of accidentally setting out your trap item before the time is right (remember that you dont want to use it or your Tranq Bomb items until the bird is nearly defeated) You can get more items if you satisfy subquests (though the easier task of wounding the birds head doesnt do much for you) but its best to play it safe with risky and extended encounters such as this one

Save Our Boat

Client Fleet Captain

Main Quest Hunt a Royal Ludroth (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (800z)

Subquest B Slay 5 Ludroth (600z)

For this quest youll head to the Flooded Forest area The Royal Ludroth is your foe He attacks with body rolls pounces and icy projectiles You should be able to easily roll out of the way of most of those attacks if youre paying attention and see them coming Attack dodge attack dodge and repeat as necessary until you wear the beast down When it retreats to the water your strategy shouldnt need to change much Just keep hitting it on the face near the shoulders and along the mane Underwater though its especially important that you dodge carefully out of the way to avoid attacks Keep up the merciless attacks on your opponent and in time youll win

When youre done with the Qurupeco you might think that the game would give you a bit of a breather Not so Your next target is the fearsome Royal Ludroth a much more powerful version of the weaker monsters that youve likely been killing for awhile now

Accept the Save Our Boat quest and youll appear in the Flooded Forest region Work your way to Area 4 to find the Ludroth who should appear at first on land If youre a melee fighter (the switch ax type seems to work best) you need to move in close and chop him along the flank a short distance up from the tip of his tail Thats the best place to damage him but watch for his tail to start thrashing and his head to tilt back That indicates that hes preparing to roll to one side or another He may also pounce forward which can inflict a lot of damage if youre caught by his airborne charge Be prepared to roll out of the way if you see that coming

(Above Left) Battling the Royal Ludroth on land is fairly easy even with a sword Just avoid the rolls pounces and occasional projectiles (Above Right) Those rolls are more difficult to avoid underwater and a hit will leave you incapacitated for a longer period of time as well

Besides using his massive girth to his benefit the Royal Ludroth also likes to fire icy projectiles They can inflict severe damage so you will be doing a lot of dodging in this fight as you build up damage Once youve hit it for enough such damage (possibly severing a tail in the process) the Royal Ludroth will flee to the water You should follow but make sure that you swim carefully When youre a distance away from him put your weapon away so that you can maneuver more quickly Then get in close just under his maw (even with the bottom of his mane) and start slashing with your most fearsome combo If you can approach from the side or back at about that level youll find it much easier to get in a few strikes before your opponent swims a short distance away to mount a fresh attack Quickly put away your weapon then maneuver around to strike near the mane again Be especially careful as you battle below the surface of the murky water since any damage that you take tends to leave you unable to move for awhile as your body floats toward the surface You could get hit almost as soon as you recover if things dont go well so you want to avoid that possibility before it even comes close

Keep wailing away at the monster with your switch ax or other melee weapon Youll eventually win the day but the fight can be a challenging one until you memorize your foes attack patterns and the places that he likes to go If youre having trouble finding him and have a suspicion that the fight is almost over know that hell make for Area 5 then Area 6 and most likely finish up with Area 8 as you are about to truly defeat him You can hit him with a paintball to track him of course but sometimes the fight can wage on for awhile and a paintball that you threw previously will lose its effects As with any boss monster you need to get a feel for how the Royal Ludroth moves

Once you defeat the beast make sure that you scavenge its corpse for important items before the timer kicks you back to the village Upon your arrival youll notice that the villagers are feeling chatty again Talk to Junior to find that the Royal Ludroth has joined the list of beasts that you can now find in the local woods Thats handy for item farming Talk to the chief for a general update then youre ready to talk to the Guild Sweetheart She has two new quests for you

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Hunt a Barroth (2600z)

Subquest A Sever Barroths tail (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 2 desert anthills (500z)

The Barroth is a new monster and quite durable You should take it on with the Spiral Lance so take the time to fashion one if you dont already have one (youll need to battle some Royal Ludroth monsters) With the Spiral Lance equipped try to get in close to the Barroth and strike at its legs and claws This will allow you to avoid most of its attacks while its frequent charges can be blocked with your shield Keep hammering away at your foe as opportunities arise and you should be able to win the fight with plenty of time to spare

A Royal Pain

Client The Lords Beloved Daughter

Main Quest Capture a Royal Ludroth (4000z)

Subquest A Wound Royal Ludroths mane (400z)

Subquest B Sever Royal Ludroths tail (400z)

Youve managed to slay a Royal Ludroth now so its time to capture one alive This time youll be doing so at the Deserted Island He hangs around in areas 5 9 10 11 and 12 Youll first find him in Area 5 or Area 9 and youll spend much of the early portion of the battle there As he grows weaker (particularly once you hack off his tail) hell move to areas 10 11 and 12 When you see him retreating to Area 12 it means that you almost have him After he flees to the area you should find him slumbering Plant your trap then wake him and lure him across it Quickly move in and tranquilize him for an easy victory

The new Leading the Charge quest requires you to slay a new type of beast the Barroth Youll be taken to the Sandy Plains area when you accept the quest

When you enter the zone head to Area 3 The Barroth is a large beast that likes to wallow in the mud pit there When you arrive you may not see it out in the open Head toward the murky pool of water and watch for the floating objects on the water When you get near the Barroth will break free from the mucky surface to attack Youll find that the monster moves rather slowly but its attacks are quite powerful when they connect Its charges can drain your life meter quickly if you dont have your shield up plus it will occasionally let out a howl that stuns you where you stand and opens you up to be on the receiving end of a charge you can do nothing about You can avoid falling victim to that by staying mostly to the side of the monster when it is standing still and looking around rather than facing it head-on

The trick to defeating Barroth is to play smartly With your Spiral Lance and shield equipped youre safe from most of its attacks You mostly only need to worry about its pounces and head butts which can break through your defenses and leave you reeling The charge is something that your shield can block (if youre not in the middle of swinging your weapon when struck make sure that youre not) You can also block its hammer-like tail which always swings twice in a row once it swings at all Finally your adversary also likes to shake loose gunks of mud If you get hit by those youll find your arms temporarily bound by your side Youll need to roll around and shake loose from the gunk before you can attack or let Cha-Cha or a weak enemy break you free Its an altogether unpleasant situation so steer clear of the gunk

(Above Left) The Barroth emerges from the muck in Area 3 to ruin your day (Above Right) Roll clear of its charges then move in to hack it apart with your weapons (or fire from a distance with your bowgun)

Speaking of Cha-Cha hes terrific to have along for the fight because he can distract your foe and occasionally will even heal you or boost your attributes That leaves you free to move slowly around the area until you come into position near the Barroths legs When that happens you can hit him with a series of three lance jabs or perhaps even more if your positioning is correct Your Spiral Lance does good damage to the Barroth plus youll be able to hit him several times without worrying too much about taking damage yourself because none of his attacks are capable of harming you if youre pressed right up against his powerful legs Hit him a few times in that fashion and hell fall to the ground leaving you to ram him with your lance several more times before he gets back up to his feet

Once youve amassed a good amount of damage the Barroth will likely attempt to flee It runs off a short distance then burrows into the ground Dont get too close when this happens since sometimes it will immediately burst back from the ground where it just disappeared Instead stay a short distance away and watch for puffs of white along the ground to indicate the direction in which the Barroth has fled You dont even need to use a paintball though of course that item is advised if you are going to be running back to your camp often to heal

the count Once he does move in quickly to scavenge his corpse for a bunch of loot Barroth bits can make you some nice weapons

(Above Left) Cha-Cha has an idea for a mask Talk to Junior for all the details (Above Right) Theres a new urgent quest available if youre feeling brave

When you get back to town talk to Cha-Cha He has an idea for a new mask You should also see about putting your new Barroth parts to use for some weapon upgrades You may be pleased to learn that youve now completed all of the three-star challenges at the Guild but theres a new urgent quest that needs your attention before you can progress to the next tier

Accident Investigation

Client Trader

Main Quest Hunt a Gobul (3000z)

Subquest A Destroy Gobuls lantern (600z)

Subquest B Fish out Gobul once (800z)

Gobul is a fish monster that you will initially meet in Area 6 of the Flooded Forest His most powerful underwater attack is the one you will need to worry about He sucks you into his maw and inflicts severe enough damage that a single encounter with it can be fatal To avoid it stay out of his direct line of sight and swim away if you see him preparing to suck in the water around him Otherwise try to swim below him and strike him on his white belly which is the main portion of his body that your weapons can penetrate His lantern is weak to attack as well Continue wailing on him and youll eventually force him to the shore where he can still roll around to harm you but is weak enough in general that you should be able to easily put him to permanent sleep

When you decide to hunt Gobul youll find yourself in the Flooded Forest Gobul is a massive fish that looks like a cross between a lantern fish a manta ray and a puffer fish When you first arrive in Area 6 where he initially resides as you fight him on that first attempt hell break forth from the mucky surface of the submerged forest floor and will kill some of the enemies that are swimming through that environment Your goal naturally is to prevent him from using his suction attack to do the same thing to you Note that in subsequent battles hell first appear in Area 4

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_25html (2 of 4) [212011 75448 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

The first thing that youll probably find as you move in for the kill is that Gobuls defense rating is pretty strong If you try to hit him from above your attacks will likely bounce from his thick hide unless your weapon is particularly sharp Instead you want to try to come up underneath him and hit his weak white belly You should be able to jab it a few times with your lance in a single rush Staying along the lowest depths of the area seems to work best Sometimes hell lay flat on the surface and you can hit him several times with your lance before he moves again Then make sure to get out of the way as he puffs himself up and rolls around with spikes extended

(Above Left) Your first meeting with Gobul will be in Area 6 (Above Right) Try to swim up at Gobul from beneath and hit him with a few lance strikes then get out of the way of his wrath

While you fight make sure that you dont get in front of the fish at eye level It often will use a suction move that does tremendous damage to your life meter You can only survive it if youre in good shape and after the assault youll be crippled

Besides his suction attack (which should hit you only rarely) and his puffed up spiky roll the fish also likes to flash his lantern to blind and stun you Just stay away when you see the flashing start and make sure that your character is looking away at the time Thatll severely diminish or nullify its effects

Occasionally the fish will also move onto land Here he relies mostly on his lantern attack to stun you and on his rolling spike move Depending on your skill set you may find him easier to battle on dry land but youll definitely want to focus on hacking apart that pesky lantern to satisfy a subquest Its also a good time to chuck a paintball at him though you can also do that underwater if desired For the most part finding the fish means looking for the telltale red plants on the floor of the region where he has last fled They should have oxygen bubbles rising from them and arent actually plants If you get near the fish will emerge from the murky floor unless he is asleep If hes sleeping to recover health you can poke him with your lance a bit to waken him Just make sure that youre not caught by his spikes as he surfaces

Gobul can be a tough enemy at first but things will go considerably easier for you if you are wearing enough of the Ludroth armor pieces If youre having trouble just equip more of those (or the full set for bonuses of course) and you should be able to win after a few more attempts

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Look away when youre battling Gobul and he is prepping his lantern flash (Above Right) The Guild Sweetheart offers more quests and mentions the Paw Pass Ticket

When you get back to town youll find that new items are available for purchase at the market Word has spread of your great adventures and now the game finally kicks into high gear From here on out youll be facing much greater challenges from the monsters that you must hunt but the rewards have also improved

you have a weapon equipped that allows such evasive maneuvers such as the Switch Ax

The problem is that as you weaken the Great Baggi and he runs to new areas hell likely seek out shelter for a nap The Tundra region is occasionally inhabited by a Gigginox that hangs around on the ceiling of enclosed chambers You do not want to battle long in its presence since it is capable of inflicting serious damage on you and also stunning you Steer clear of it as you battle the Great Baggi Youll know that the Gigginox is in the area if you hear the tempo of the music change abruptly so run before you ever have a chance to see it Youll fight a Gigginox soon enough in a later quest Fortunately the Gigginox does not appear in the region every time you visit so that complication wont always be present

Once youve defeated the Great Baggi youll head back to town to find the residents feeling quite chatty Talk to the Wyverian Artisan to learn that you can now forge and upgrade Long Sword weapons The Argosy Captain can now sail to new areas for new items youll also find Finally talk to the chief to learn about the return of the fearsome Lagiacrus beast Theres a related Urgent Quest available at the Guild now

Trial of the Sea Dragon

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Lagiacrus (2100z)

Your job in this mission is to chase away the Lagiacrus who isnt inclined to leave just because you hack at him a bit He moves quickly with a lot of charge and pounce attacks not to mention sweeping tail swings As you fight you should get a feel for when each of these moves are coming and learn how to easily dodge them The fight tends to go best if you stay along his flank near the base of his tail Hit him as hard as you can from there dodge out of the way of his rushes (which can still hit you if youre too close to his side) and tail sweeps and then follow him to the water as he retreats There stay away when hes putting up electricity shields then move in and hit him hard as he rests after expending that energy Keep up the attack and youll eventually chase away your target

The new quest is your obvious priority but you should probably wait to attempt it until youve completed all other quests available up to this point That way youll likely have better gear at your disposal Once youre ready take on the quest

(Above Left) On land stay near the hind legs to avoid the worst attacks but be ready to roll away at a moments notice (Above Right) Underwater the fight goes much the same but you need to make sure to get a safe distance away when you see electricity waves coursing over his scaly body

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

When you enter the Deserted Island area the village chief will weigh in on the coming battle Hell note that the Lagiacrus has been seen as close as Area 5 which is precisely where you should head to initiate battle

The Lagiacrus looks a lot like a massive Ludroth but hes a great deal more powerful He can tighten himself into a ball then sweep outward with his tail and neck to take away a good half of your life meter His pounces and charges do much the same thing Most of his attacks are frontal youll soon notice so a good strategy is to move in from the flank near the tail Then you can avoid most frontal attacks and you can dodge out of the way if you see him tightening into a ball in anticipation of a wide swing of his tail

As the battle wages on the Lagiacrus will eventually progress toward the water along the northern side Then hell dive in as you continue to wear him down and youll have to join the beast below the surface There you should continue to fight in much the same manner as you already have but theres a new wrinkle electricity As you damage the Lagiacrus it will start to generate an electric barrier around its body If you get too close to that barrier youll take substantial damage Your best bet is to back away and wait for the Lagiacrus to use his powerful attack Then move quickly in and slash at him as he recuperates

Your job here isnt to kill the beast but merely to repel it The hardest part of that task is staying alive long enough to deal the appropriate amount of damage so play defensively until you have openings and then make the most of each opportunity Eventually youll send the Lagiacrus packing

(Above Left) Two boats instead of three can mean more treasure and more fish (Above Right) There are new quests available as well

chief will let you know that more new quests are available at the Guild so go ahead and check those out when youre ready to proceed

Dragon Lady

Client Village Protector

Main Quest Hunt a Rathian (2800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1000z)

Rathian is a flying dragon He isnt all that tough if you stick close to his feet for most of the battle with a lance-type weapon equipped That will allow you to avoid most of his charges When he takes to the sky though you should roll clear until he has used his tail flip since it can poison and stun you to a near-critical point Steer clear of his tail and any flame blasts (easily avoided if you keep moving when you see him preparing one) as you hack away at his legs and stomach Youll have to knock him over a few times and follow him to his nest in Area 8 but if you hit him with a paintball or two you shouldnt have trouble keeping tabs on him and should be able to defeat him rather easily

The Creeping Venom

Client Cocky Hunter

Main Quest Hunt a Gigginox (3400z)

Subquest A Slay 10 Giggi (500z)

Subquest B Destroy 5 Gigginox Eggs (500z)

This quest is optional when it first becomes available but you will need to defeat the Gigginox at some point because you need the Flabby Hide that is part of its body in order to progress to the games final areas When it comes time to fight the Gigginox youll find that it sticks mostly to the cave areas though its not unwilling to venture outside if needed Its attacks are body slams for the most part It can shuffle along the ground and can bellow to freeze you in your place but it tends to prefer to flop on you from the ceiling (you can see its circular shadow even on cave floors) or to hang from said ceilings like a decoration and thrash around violently If youre hit by the Gigginoxs body without your shield ready youll likely be poisoned Try to avoid that and get in close to its flanks to hit it with your lance You can hit it quite frequently and even hit it from beneath if it arcs overhead Just keep battling and run back to camp when you need a boost and you should win this battle with little difficulty

Your new quests both involve hunts for creatures that youve not tried hunting before so its definitely time to upgrade your chosen armor to high levels if you havent done so already Of the two only the Dragon Lady quest is required See our notes on the two quests above and additional information about the latter quest immediately below

When you initiate the Dragon Lady quest youll appear in the Deserted Island region Head immediately to Area 3 where youll be treated to a scene of your foe having lunch Follow him as he flees from there to Area 7 where you should arrive in time to see him landing The trick now is to move in close for the attack His feet are fairly vulnerable as was the case with the Barroth so you should be able to get in some good hits

(Above Left) Stay close to her feet and be ready to move aside to avoid slashes from his barbed tail or to get into a better position to resume your attack as appropriate (Above Right) Youll feel the pain if you get hit by that vicious tail Be ready to mash buttons if you fall on your back or get stunned

As you battle Rathian youll become familiar with his attacks Youll also come to appreciate the value of using a lance-type weapon because that allows you to block minor physical contact without taking damage (as long as your gear is out and youre not caught mid-swing by a charge) Rathian likes to breathe balls of fire that are easily avoided just by moving to the side as you see him preparing bursts He also will rush you but your shield should be able to block that His more lethal attacks come in the form of swipes with his spiked tail These can poison you stun you and inflict serious damage all at once Make sure that you steer clear of them which is most easily done by staying near his feet and attacking with a flurry of lance stabs When he takes to the air and hovers just a bit over the ground stay clear of him until he lands or youll likely be hit by his spiked tail attack at that point

After the battle has waged on for awhile you should be able to knock loose a Wyvern Tear that you can deliver to satisfy a subquest and receive more supply items The battle should wage on fairly long in areas 7 and 8 (where he will also head when he needs to take a nap as the battle nears its conclusion if given the chance) but the Rathian may also flap her way over to the lower areas on the maps eastern side Its important to keep track of him so that you dont waste time tracking him down Make sure that you put your paintballs to good use Beyond that theres nothing to say Follow him around stay close to his feet when possible and hack him apart with your lance

Once you win the fight return to the village to find that the villagers are feeling chatty yet again Cha-Cha should have a new idea for a mask as well You can talk to the village chief and to Junior for details Junior will mention that you can now find the Rathian in the Moga Woods area if you want to battle a bunch of them for armor and weapon components Also talk to the Guild Sweetheart who has a new Urgent Quest ready for you along with some more standard ones

A Royal Rumble

Client Middle-aged Knight

Main Quest Capture a Rathian (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Rathians head (600z)

Subquest B Sever Rathians tail (600z)

Its time for a substantially more difficult encounter with the Rathian When you accept the quest head immediately to Area 2 and youll find the beast waiting there Mark it with a paintball though know in general that it will stick to the land-based portions of this Flooded Forest region areas 1 2 7 9 and 10 Youll find herbivores in many of those places so you should eliminate them early in the course of the mission to rob your enemy of food that it can use for health boosts Otherwise its business as usual but the cramped areas where youre fighting mean that youre much more likely to take damage whether that be due to foliage that blocks your viewing angles or just rock faces that give you nowhere to run Felynes sometimes get involved with explosive barrels as if you needed anything more to worry about Still its doable if youre patient and are careful not to take too many risks As long as you manage to avoid being poisoned youll probably come through this battle just fine

Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client Royal Cook

Main Quest Deliver 2 Wyvern Eggs (2000z)

Subquest A Deliver 1 Wyvern Egg (2000z)

This quest is made much much simpler if you have the Transporter ability unlocked The easiest way to do that is to purchase pieces of the Loc Lac armor from the Artesian You can also find charms throughout the game that will increase your ability Your goal in this mission is to deliver two wyvern eggs to the red chest at your base camp Begin by clearing a path along areas 2 3 and 7 on the way to Area 8 Most of the enemies that you have to face wont attack on the way to the egg Once you have an egg you need to backtrack to the base camp On the way back more enemies (including a Rathian) will attack If you have the Transporter ability you can jog and avoid enemies that you left alive If you fail go ahead and clear the enemies out of each of the areas along your route since the more vicious enemies will now have materialized and can be defeated The exception is the Rathian which you should simply continue to avoid Make two successful runs from the nest to your base and youll do fine Just remember that you cant dodge or use items while you are carrying the egg which is why its important to clear a path first The rewards for this inconvenient quest are actually worthwhile though (you can get a Commendation or two for instance) so keep at it

Fell the Lagiacrus

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Hunt a Lagiacrus (4200z)

Subquest A Wound Lagiacrus chest (600z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Head to Area 10 where Lagiacrus now attacks Youll spend most of the fight underwater so its especially

important that you master the art of swimming Move in close with your lance equipped and hack away at his chest and shoulders If Cha-Cha is along he should serve as a nice distraction that makes it easy to do some serious damage without much risk of taking any yourself If you do find your health dwindling you can swim to the next area and use some restorative items before returning to the fray When you see your foe flashing as electricity courses over him be sure to back away until he has exhausted himself then move in and resume the attack Your battle will eventually go to land where you should use the same general strategies that helped you to repel the beast earlier in the game Keep up the attack so that you dont run out of time This actually isnt a terribly difficult battle to win if you play it smart

This is it Your time to go up against the Lagiacrus has finally come This time you wont be simply repelling him but sending him to a watery grave

When youre ready for the epic battle accept the Fell the Lagiacrus quest at the Guild and youll be taken once more to the Deserted Island region This time your battle with the Lagiacrus will for the most part occur underwater Head to Area 10

Depending on your style of play and your proficiency with the underwater controls the change of venue could be good news Lagiacrus is a powerful foe underwater but his size is a disadvantage for him because it means that you can easily strike with your lance Its much easier to hit him in the belly now which is where you should focus your attacks along with his shoulders Get in close and you can sometimes hit him 5 or 6 times per charge Most of his swimming rushes will just bounce from your shield if youre smart about things plus even his icy blasts will miss you if you swim in a long horizontal line around his side as he is firing them

(Above Left) If youve finally become comfortable in the water the moments where Lagiacrus takes to the shore can be the most difficult part of the fight (Above Right) A slumbering Lagiacrus is a beautiful sight indeed

Lagiacrus does have some new rushes that are dangerous and you still need to steer clear of him when you see electricity coursing over his body but the underwater portion of the battle can be a breeze if youve grown used to such encounters

When it comes time to fight on land theres not a lot that has changed Lagiacrus will survive longer than he used to though so the fight could wear on for quite awhile Watch out when you see him rolling into a spiral form as he will follow that with a powerful rush You need to steer clear since you cant count on your shield to always block those attacks Try to move around to the side so that hes rushing away from you Then you can follow behind him and get in a hit or three as he turns to face you again The main challenge in this fight is to rack up enough damage that your foe perishes before the quests time limit expires Be fierce and fight smart and youll manage a safe victory

The Lord of the Sea) Cha-Cha will return

(Above Left) First deliver the requested items to Junior (Above Right) Next pass through the waterfall along the farms right side to find a hidden cave and the Ancient Mask

Talk to Junior now to learn about a mask enshrined in the old cave behind the farm To proceed through the game you must now build the Ancient Mask which you do by bringing together two Lagiacrus Scale items a Sharqskin and four Pelagicite Ore You likely already have the Lagiacrus Scale quantity that you need To get a Sharqskin just kill one of the animals in the northeast region of the Deserted Island (weaken it with weapons and finish it off with a harpoon to get the skin) The Pelagicite Ore can be obtained in the Flooded Forest region underwater in Area 5 and Area 6 You can pick apart the red stones that grow on the side of those passages though they dont always yield the desired ore so you may need to make multiple trips

Bring all of the desired materials to Junior and hell announce that the mask is now fashioned You can talk to Cha-Cha and hell mention the cave Go to the farm and head toward its right side where a waterfall is positioned You can pass through the waterfall to find the cave that everyone is talking about Investigate the statue that is nestled against its back wall to receive the Ancient Mask Youll now have more quest options

The Wrath of Rathalos

Client Princess of a Ruined Land

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (4800z)

Subquest A Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1200z)

Rathalos fights a lot like Rathian only he has a longer life meter and he stays in the air a great deal more He also can breathe fire at you while airborne (dodge it rather than trying to block it and risking heavy stamina loss) and he will sometimes try to fake you out by flying in circles around a given area and then zooming in to ram against you Be ready to block such efforts with your shield then to counter with vicious blows to his feet and underbelly When youve done enough damage Rathalos will flee to Area 6 Follow and then take care of him as you see fit

Client Wandering Bard

Main Quest Hunt a Barioth (4800z)

Subquest A Wound 1 of Barioths wings (800z)

Subquest B Pitfall Trap Barioth (400z)

For this fight you need to be ready to do a lot of blocking Barioth is first found in Area 2 but will move from there When hes about to perish hell flee to the high ground in Area 6 so be ready to follow him and try to mark him with a paintball to follow him around the area His main attacks are various pounces and dives from the air which you can block manually with your shield Steer clear of those and of his icy attacks that are most easily avoided by spending as little time directly in front of him as possible Once you wound him enough youll damage a wing and you can get a Pitfall Trap from the supply chest Then when you follow him and find him asleep you can lure him into that trap to finish him off or capture him

The Horned Dragon

Client Watchtower Sentinel

Main Quest Hunt a Diablos (5600z)

Subquest A Break both Diablos horns (1000z)

Subquest B Sonic Bomb Diablos mid-dig (500z)

To complete this quest you must defeat a new type of enemy Diablos Hes a huge burrowing dragon with a powerful tail and a knack for sneak entrances However his greatest strength is also a weakness When you see him burrow into the ground wait until his tail is just about to disappear Then throw a Sonic Bomb The blast will cause the earth around Diablos to crumble inward and hell be trapped for a moment as if caught by a pitfall trap Quickly move in and deal a few blows then back away and wait for another such opportunity You can continue to hit him with the Sonic Bomb blasts as long as you have them but dont try to do so when you see black smoke coming from his nostrils That means hes enraged and that the technique wont work Stay on your guard at such moments as Diablos will attack with more ferocity As usual with tough monsters you can deal the most damage by attacking from the flanks or by getting under his powerful legs and jabbing upward with a lance Make the most of every opportunity to deal some damage and be ready to block regularly particularly if Diablos burrows and you cant interrupt him with a bomb blast Hell come flying out of the ground in a moment most of the time and you want to have a shield pointed in the direction from which he comes or youll suffer severe damage Play things smart and youll win the fight with time and continues to spare

You have some tough hunt quests available to you so its time to get down to business For the first of those quests called The Wrath of Rathalos youll be taken to the Volcano environment

When you fight Rathalos youll find that he fights a great deal like Rathian did The difference is that he seems to have a much longer life meter and hes capable of dealing significant fire damage on a much more regular basis He also has some new moves that might give you some trouble if you allow them to catch you unawares plus hell stay in the air a lot more and will still try to catch you with his spiked tail (which is now wider)

watch the ground to get a feel for the direction from which he will come Continue hitting and dodging as appropriate with breaks to refill your dwindling stamina or to heal When Diablos flees to Area 11 to get some rest follow and either capture him or kill him as you see fit

(Above Left) The Guild Sweetheart has bad news for you (Above Right) You need to gather more items to build a new camp

Once you have successfully hunted the appropriate monsters youll have to do some chores before some new quests will become available To access those quests talk to the Guild Sweetheart then the chief then Junior Junior will give you a new villager request called One Chance that will allow you to build an all-important base camp near what looks to be your final hunting target To build it youll need two Rath Talons eight Machalite Ore and two Flabby Hides Youll also need 1500 Res You should have most of the items in stock already and the Res shouldnt be a problem either The Flabby Hide you can obtain by defeating Gigginox in the Tundra environment if you havent gone up against him already If you need help see our instructions for clearing The Creeping Venom and youll find information on battling him

When you have assembled the supplies talk to Junior again and hell make the camp Then you can talk to the Guild Sweetheart to see about those new quests

The Omen

Client Shipmaster

Main Quest Hunt a Rathalos (5200z)

Subquest A Wound Rathalos head (800z)

Subquest B Sever Rathalos tail (800z)

Youll head back to the Deserted Island area for this particular quest Your foe is another Rathalos like the one that youve already killed You know how to fight them by now so you should be okay even if other monsters show up to lend an unwelcome hand to the Rathalos Besides that you no longer have to worry about using Cool Drink items to keep your health from depleting over the course of the battle Its still an encounter that can take a lot out of you like every battle at this late stage of the game but its very doable and by now you should have the knowledge and gear to win

The Volcanos Fury

Client Scarred Hunter

Main Quest Hunt an Uragaan (5600z)

Subquest A Wound Uragaans jaw (1000z)

Subquest B Deliver 1 Wyvern Tear (1400z)

Uragaan is a huge monster with a powerful chin that he will use to attack as you wage war against him in the Volcano environment Make sure that you use a Cool Drink so that you dont have to worry about the heat sapping your energy then focus on attacking the Uragaan For the most part you can come at it from the sides after it makes a lunge or settles down from a roll that carries it all around the area where the battle takes place Try to move in close and hit its belly if youre using a lance or other such weapon Just make sure to move away if you see it standing on its hind legs or else you may find yourself caught by a blast of fire or falling asleep Cha-Cha may wake you up if the latter effect catches you but theres no guarantee When in doubt back away Uragaan has enough life that you cant afford to be too cautious though so come to the fight prepared with boosts and consider trapping him instead of killing him if youre running low on time as the fight nears its conclusion

Uragaans Trail

Client Brainy Biologist

Main Quest Capture an Uragaan (8600z)

Subquest A Sever Uragaans tail (1000z)

Subquest B Stun Uragaan (1000z)

Now that youve completed a quest wherein you were expected to hunt and kill a Uragaan your next challenge is to capture one Depending on how the previous battle ended you may already have experience doing precisely that As with the previous encounter youll find this one made more difficult than it had to be by the extreme heat of the volcano Follow the same strategies that worked the last time around and you can win this encounter as well

Of the three newly-available quests only one must be completed to reveal the last of the games required quests That quest is The Volcanos Fury and will have you defeat a new type of enemy the Uragaan Youve probably seen him rumbling around in the Volcano environment and youve probably avoided him Now however you must defeat him

Travel to the Volcano and make your way to Area 6 Your arrival will trigger a cutscene and then youll find yourself battling the Uragaan

(Above Left) Uragaan has a massive chin and hell use it as a hammer to pound you into submission (Above Right) After he burrows into the ground expect Uragaan to return in free-wheeling form Hit him hard when he stops rolling

Uragaan is as you might anticipate a powerful monster who can give you a lot of trouble until you get the hang of battling him He sports a Jay Leno-sized chin and he uses it to smack the ground to either side of him after lining up to face you Make sure that you steer clear of those hammer-like blows since they will inflict serious harm to your person

When hes not using his chin as a hammer Uragaan has plenty of other attacks These include the usual rushes and tail lashing that youve no doubt come to expect from such nasties along with a less conventional wheel roll Youll know that move is coming when you see him burrow into the ground and disappear He returns shortly in the form of a wheel that careens wildly around the arena for awhile When it comes to rest thats your chance to hit Uragaan for some good damage as he recovers expended energy but that can be a tricky thing if he happens to stop on the opposite side of the area where youre battling

Though the above move set makes Uragaan a risky foe the worst move of all is his ability to put you to sleep When that happens youll be weak to any attacks that he chooses to send your way Steer clear of the sleep-inducing strikes at all costs Theyre easy enough to see coming because Uragaan will stand up on his hind legs before crashing down and then letting loose with his sleep or fire attack waves If you see those moves coming know that standing at his flanks isnt safe Roll out of harms way and then resume your assault when the coast is clear Youll know that youre about to win when you see him limping away (not rolling) toward another screen Follow him to his den and finish him off there with either more attacks or by capturing the fiend

the Guild Sweetheart though who will offer up a new standard quest and also an urgent one

Denizen of the Molten Deep

Client Fire Country Chieftain

Main Quest Hunt an Agnaktor (6000z)

Subquest A Wound Agnaktors chest (1000z)

Subquest B Sever Agnaktors tail (1000z)

Before you worry about anything else make sure that you have armor that can protect against fire-based attacks Agnaktor is a fiery lizard that will attack (following a splendid entrance animation) as you enter Area 7 He fights much like a larger version of the Uroktor enemies that inhabit that same space and theyll pitch in to help their leader What this means is that youll have to keep moving as weaker foes come flying out of the ground beneath you Circular patches of heat appear before they emerge but thats not much warning if one appears beneath you as youre in the middle of a combo attack The weaker Uroktor enemies can really prove an inconvenience but theyre nothing compared to the Agnaktor It does the same burrowing attacks as its fellows but breaks forth to cause a lot more damage Besides that it is capable of firing a stream of lava breath that you definitely want to avoid rather than try to block Fortunately you should be able to see it coming and it doesnt have a lot of width When you see that attack coming its a good chance to get to your enemys flank and rain down a few blows while he finishes his attack Otherwise the main attacks that youll face are tail lashes and the usual pounces that large enemies seem to love so much at this point in the game Get used to your enemys patterns of movement and you should find good opportunities to strike from the flank near chest and head level Just dont get too comfortable there move in strike and retreat then repeat as the battle wages throughout the volcano This can be a tough fight to win but the good news is that its entirely optional

Save Moga Village

Client Moga Village Chief

Main Quest Repel a Ceadeus (6000z)

Ceadeus is your final foe and the battle takes place in two phases If you fail the first phase where you need to hack at your enemys ruffled chest and bearded neck as it swims slowly along a passage youll have to start fresh If you inflict enough damage to make it to the second phase you can continue there on subsequent attempts Just head between the chest and the tents left side to find a ledge that you can leap to in order to move to Area 2 Then swim into Area 3 where the fight concludes In that area start by swimming across the chamber and up to a ledge where an underwater ballista weapon waits Grab some ammo nearby then swim over to the weapon and use the ammo to shoot your foe Aim for the horns You can knock away the horns and as your enemy is stunned youll have the chance to swim upward along a wall to find a switch that you can press You want to press it while Ceadeus is in front of the wall which may be easiest if you lure him up that way after he recovers from your ballista shots As he passes in front of the wall to the side of the switch where you are waiting press the button to send out huge prongs that will inflict serious damage on your foe Then finish him off with standard attacks or ballista shots if necessary

Youve now unlocked the final standard quest in the game Save Moga Village and youll get to see the closing credits then enjoy post-game content Before you begin the final quest make sure that you place plenty of powerful items in your inventory Equip your best weapons and armor eat a meal at the Canteen to boost your stats and get ready for a grand battle Make sure that Cha-Cha is trailing along and that he has the Ancient Mask equipped Then accept the quest

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_34html (2 of 5) [212011 75617 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll have to chase Ceadeus through the channel and inflict as much damage as possible to his chin as the fight progresses (Above Right) The cyclone of water will be most unkind to your life meter if you happen to meet up with it during the fight

Youll be taken to a new area the Underwater Ruin Your only goal here is to defeat Ceadeus Youll appear in camp and can jump into the water to the right side of the tent Once you do youll find yourself swimming down a long passageway Your foe is making the same swim that you are Your job is to hack at him as he swims inflicting as much damage as possible as quickly as possible The only areas where you can easily damage him for now are his chest and beard As he swims along the passage you should keep pace and hack away at the beard like theres no tomorrow

Ceadeus barely seems to notice you even when youre inflicting good damage If you stay under him most of the fight and just ahead of his front flippers youll barely have to worry about dodging any attacks at all Just keep hacking and if you start to run low on air you can either use items that you hopefully brought with you or you can swim to the bottom of the passage and pass through some air bubbles for a refill If you find yourself doing that make sure that you also take a moment to sharpen your weapon as necessary You want to make sure that every blow you land is doing the most damage possible

If you do attract the attention of your target be prepared for some pain He has an attack where he sucks in a whirlpool It can deal some hefty damage He also likes to thrash around in the water and his efforts will knock you reeling Hopefully Cha-Cha will keep your health up so that any minor damage you sustain isnt a big deal If you do get knocked out youll be taken back to camp and can jump down the cliff to the left of the tent which will serve as a shortcut to Area 2 where you likely were by the time you were knocked unconscious

(Above Left) Find the ballista ammunition and use it to put the weapon to good use on the dragons horns (Above Right) Swim up along a nearby wall with the Ceadeus following and press the Dragonator switch to skewer him

In order to actually win the fight you need to build up a lot of damage quickly The chase through the channel is only the first portion of the fight Since you have a total of only 35 minutes available in which to complete the whole battle you need to make that first portion go as quickly as possible Once you do enough damage Ceadeus will break into Area 3 on the map and there youll make your final stand If you perish you can continue from this point without having to repeat the long swim down the passageway

As for Area 3 the whole passage is a vertical waterlogged chamber From where you first appear swim across it while gaining altitude You want to hurry and youre not particularly worried about the dragon at the moment Swim toward a rising island with metal glinting along the side Here youll find UW Ballista Ammo in the crates near a ballista weapon Grab several shells then head over to the ballista While you are floating over it you will find that you can use the ammunition that you just grabbed Use it to aim at the head of the approaching dragon who by now should be swimming slowly upward toward your location You need to hit his horns a few times

When you have scored a few direct hits in that fashion youll be advised to use the Dragonator Quickly swim upward along a rock wall just to the side from the ballista that you were using The Ceadeus should follow but he moves slower Thats what you want Swim along the wall to the far side where theres a circular switch among some golden-colored pillars Press the switch as your enemy passes along the wall Huge prongs will extend out from the wall and skewer him That could be all that it takes to defeat your foe If you miss theres a long period of time that youll have to wait for the weapon to re-prime itself Then you can try again

Once the quest completes youll be taken to a game-end sequence including credits Then its time to get to work on that post-game content All of your gear will be waiting for you and you can continue to reattempt any quests except for the one that you just cleared Have fun monster hunter

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Before you ever go out on a hunt you should learn to recognize the resources at your disposal in Moga Village These will become available to you over the course of the game and their value will increase for the most part with each new type of monster that you slay Dont make the mistake of ignoring the very things that give you the greatest chance of escaping from battle in one piece

Argosy

The Argosy is a ship that comes to port every few days When the ship is available prices at the Market are lower and the captain will be wandering around somewhere near the center of the area You can trade rare commodities with him for powerful equipment that simply cant be obtained anywhere else Starred items are accepted for rare item trades Other trades are also possible The captain brings many excellent components with him when returning from faraway lands When you talk to him you can also designate which places he should visit next and you can exclude destinations if you dont want any items from that area Doing so will ensure that he returns from his trip more quickly If youre in need of a rare item for a farm upgrade and you cant seem to find it anywhere odds are good that the Argosy captain can supply you with it

Canteen

Here youll eventually find a felyne proprietor who will fix delicious dishes for you from a variety of ingredients You can use a voucher if you want to call the shots when it comes to the actual effect that you meal will have or you can mix and match any two components from a list Successfully fusing ingredients one time makes the effects of that combination immediately apparent on subsequent visits to the canteen The effects are pretty good at times too You can boost your health defense attack and a wide variety of other attributes (such as the ability to roll out of the way when an enemy has you pinned to the ground) Positive and negative effects will last either the duration of a mission or until you pass out for the first time while attempting a mission

Farm

At the farm youll be able to dependably reproduce certain crops that you find out in the wilds such as the valuable paintberry or expensive insects such as the Godbug The items that you reproduce can then be used either for your item combining efforts or as currency that you can sell to raise money for other investments As you advance through the game youll be able to gather components for occasional upgrades Junior will let you know about each such opportunity You should try to make such upgrades as quickly as possible to improve your farms output Its a real time saver

Fishery

Not long after you begin the game youll be able to start dispatching first one boat then eventually a total of three ships Those ships can either seek out fish or treasure Treasure can obviously be sold for money

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_9html (2 of 4) [212011 75645 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

or occasionally used for item creation Fish can be turned into resources that you can use to upgrade your farm or to take advantage of its services so the two establishments are closely linked

Guild

The Guild is run by the Guild Sweetheart Shell provide you with quests over the course of the game but there wont be any quests available when you first begin playing Youll have to complete other tasks to make the first of the guilds quests available From there on out youll need to continue completing tasks When you accept a task at the guild you will either need to complete it or abandon it by checking in at the Guild counter You can still eat at the canteen before you head out on your mission After accepting a quest head left along the dock to find an opening leading to a small boat that you will ride to the destination appropriate for the particular mission in question You then must clear that mission within the specified time limit You can return early by satisfying side quests that are available for some missions but you must complete the main mission to receive full credit and to access subsequent missions For the most part any mission that you have completed can be played through again if you need to fight or capture a particular monster Youll be permitted three attempts before a mission is failed providing you dont run out of time

Market

The market is a useful place to buy the most basic components You can buy pieces for a trap for instance then combine that with elements gleaned from hunts to form useful items Pickaxes harpoons and nets are also available plus basic ammunition for your weapons Youll probably find yourself making numerous stops at the market if youre putting your full inventory to use At the market you can also purchase upgrade items that allow your supply chest to hold more items

Outfitter

When you first start playing you can come here to equip yourself with basic weapons The prices are a bit steep and the selection isnt that good but you should continue to check back over the course of the game because sometimes there will be pleasant surprises If nothing else you can find the gear that the artisan at the Smithy can turn into something better Sometimes a visit to the Outfitter also saves you the trouble of hunting for rare items that you would need if you visited the Smithy first

Smithy

The Wyverian Artisan could very well be your best friend in the game If you bring him the right components and enough money hell produce weapons and armor that give you a fighting chance against the brutal monsters that you encounter He can also produce decorations that you can add to your gear (for improved customization) and he can upgrade armor that youve purchased to help it meet its full

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

defensive potential To upgrade armor at the Smithy youll need to make or find Armor Sphere items or youll need to get them in trade from the Argosy captain Once you have them bring them to the Wyverian Artisan He can upgrade any individual piece of armor to level 6 There are three types of armor sphere

Armor Sphere Found when completing quests or by mining in the Tundra and Volcano environments

Armor Sphere+ Rewarded for intermediate quests or mined from the Tundra and Volcano environments

Adv Armor Sphere

Rewarded for completing some level-5 quests in the Volcano environment

When youre not actually in battle with monsters a lot of your time will be spent at the Smithy as you figure out what ingredients you need to gather to assemble that next piece of armor or devastating weapon

You can combine certain core items to create something better This can be done either when youre on the battlefield with time to spare or when youre in your bedroom back at Moga Village Just access your item box and start creating

To combine items its best if you purchase new combo books as they become available These can be obtained at the Market over the course of the game They increase your odds of successfully combining items If youre properly prepared you wont likely meet with failure and you could even get more of an item than expected (if you equip the appropriate talismans before you begin your effort) There are dozens upon dozens of recipes Once you put something together once you wont have to guess about the outcome for subsequent efforts Below were including a few recipes that you may find especially useful

Altaroth Stomach + Insect Husk = Altaroth

Armor Stone + Firestone = Adv Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Machalite Ore = Armor Sphere

Armor Stone + Dragonite Ore = Armor Sphere+

Iron Ore + Sap Plant = Bomb Casing

Bitterbug + Honey = Catalyst

Burst Arowana + Hot Pepper = Cleanser

Catalyst + Might Seed = Demondrug

Bitterbug + Hot Pepper = Energy Drink

Bomb Casing + Exciteshroom = Farcaster

Fire Herb + Nitroshroom = Gunpowder

Godbug + Wyvern Fang = Lifecrystals

Lifecrystals + Wyvern Claw = Lifepowder

Monster Bone M + Net = Mega Bug Net

Honey + Nutrients = Mega Nutrients

Bone + Machalite Ore = Mega Pickaxe

httpauguidesigncomguides14209897page_11html (2 of 3) [212011 75703 PM]

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Immunizer + Might Seed = Might Pill

Blue Mushroom + Godbug = Nutrients

Paintberry + Sap Plant = Paintball

Raw Meat + Toadstool = Poisoned Meat

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap

Gunpowder + Screamer = Sonic Bomb

Bomb Casing + Tranquilizer = Tranq Bomb

Bone Husk and Huskberry items are typically involved in the recipes for ammunition manufacture You can produce all sorts of ammo by combining relatively common items As you experiment youll likely find alternate recipes for some of the items listed above as well

Read MoreCommon questions

raquo How can I capture monsters

Capturing monsters can be easier than just defeating them outright but at first thats not necessarily obvious When you are going up against a powerful monster inflict damage until it is visibly weakened It will usually start limping and bellowing Now you need to proceed cautiously Allow it to lead you to its lair and allow it to move ahead of you so that by the time you arrive where it is waiting at its lair the beast has fallen asleep and is resting Move in place a trap (the Shock Trap works especially well) then throw a Tranq Bomb That should hit your target and awaken it Now quickly run to the other side of the trap that you placed and lure the monster over to it As it starts across it will become caught in the trap Then you can throw another Tranq Bomb or two The monster should be captured at that point and you will receive your reward

raquo Where do I find the Jumbo Pearl

The Jumbo Pearl is located in the Deserted Island area (also known as Moga Woods if you are in Free Hunt mode) You can swim to the bottom of the ocean area and check bone piles to find the pearl though it seems to appear roughly one in fifty times You may have to make several trips

raquo Whats a quick way to earn some money

If youre having money trouble your answer is the Farm You can head there to plant things to increase your supply of insects and to produce exports that other lands will pay good money to import from Moga Village The easiest way to make money around the halfway point in the game (which is when you are most likely to need it) is to obtain some Funky Pheromones by defeating a lot of insect-type critters in Free Hunt mode The Altaroth and Bnahabra enemies should be your focus Report back to Junior after

finishing up a hunt and youll quite possibly receive the desired item Now take your nets to a region such as the Sandy Plains the Tundra or the Volcano Use them to capture a Godbug or two Finally take that insect and the Funky Pheromones to your farm which youve hopefully been upgrading at every opportunity Have one or more cats take the Godbug and Funky Pheromones and plant the bug for the longest cycle you can afford Check in periodically to find that your supply has multiplied and can be sold in large quantities for serious cash

continue along the map from there until you reach Area 6

(Above Left) Gather Herb items from the plant before you proceed to the carnivore battle (Above Right) The carnivores are a friendly looking bunch with sharp teeth

As you enter Area 6 youll be treated to a scene depicting the arrival of some small carnivore creatures known as Jaggi Make sure that you have your restorative herbs ready in case you need them then approach the beasts They dont move particularly quickly despite their size so you should have a fairly easy time slashing them apart Theyll keep coming if you linger in the area too long so fight only until you have the resources that you need and dont go menu diving until youre out of the area where the carnivores attack Then backtrack to the village and meet with Junior to report on the status of your quest

To report on a quest first select Hunt Report from the menu then look at the items that you have You should see a Pt Total column that lists the number of resources youve gathered You can convert all of those kills into Resources and then you can either take those Resources in the form of Commodities (recommended in this instance) or you can send them somewhere useful like your item pack Then report back to Junior and agree to deliver the requested items

After making your delivery your next stop should be at the Wyverian Artisans anvil up near the Armory Hell give you the Moga Pickaxe so that you can mine materials for future weapon upgrades Once youve received that item go ahead and talk to the village chief again He will award you 500z Then its time to stock up on any desired new gear and finally you can head back to Moga Woods for new items

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

(Above Left) Youll find a place where you can mine for ore along the side of the wide passageway (Above Right) Be careful of the poisonous enemies that attack you around the nearby stone column

As you enter the woods again the chief will talk to you about Iron Ore He advises you that it can be found in Area 4 but first youll need (in his words) some Felyne eyes Do as he instructs and search the area around the brazier burning just ahead of you to the side of the trail Youll obtain a Torch Now you should head toward Area 4 As you do youll receive more tips from the chief and youll notice that the area as a whole is more densely populated by enemies from which you can gather new materials

Continue toward Area 4 When you enter it youll know it Messages will come up prompting you to use your Torch and youll be surrounded by relative darkness Equip the Torch as instructed and head forward through the cavern while keeping an eye on the on-screen map You want to head for the round circular area where there are stalagmites along the floor Giggi enemies attack here with poison and by launching their bodies onto you like giant leaches You can beat them away with your Torch and with your sword Then when the path is clear you can mine along the side of the cavern (a symbol of a pickaxe will appear on-screen) to obtain your precious Iron Ore

Once you have the ore take it back to Moga Village You should feel free to mine for more along the way if you notice any large cracks in the wall Since you dropped down to the lower level when first entering the cave from the high ground you can either circle back around the long way to find the path that leads back to the village or you can explore to find a moss-covered wall that you can climb back up to high ground Fight monsters along the way if you like but remember that doing so can weaken your blade Of course the items that you gain in the process can make that worthwhile plus you can always sharpen your weapon back up using a whetstone that youve either found or purchased

(Above Left) Your search for the Iron Ore has come to an end and the goods have been delivered (Above Right) Talk to Chicory and the Head Farmer to learn about items you can cultivate

cheaper than buying items from scratch That may be true but you probably have nowhere near enough funds for such an investment if youve been spending your money all along For now sell any excess items that you happen to have at the market along the villages lower left side then see about talking to the villagers Some of them will have quests for your consideration

Start by talking to the chief Hell give you the Fishing Harpoon and encourage you to go fishing for prey on the far side of the Moga Woods Next talk to Junior who will ask if youve met the Head Farmer You can find that fellow along a trail leading down and to the right from the bridge that crosses over to the woods Just head due right from where you meet with Junior along some planking and youll come to the entrance to the Farm

At the farm you can talk to Chicory to receive three of the Sushifish items that you can turn in to Junior in the village for easy resource generation Talk to the Head Farmer character as well He will give you a Blue Mushroom item Talk to him again and hell explain the item cultivation process You can have the farm grow useful items for you while you are out adventuring essentially Its not a bad idea to set Chicory to work on some herb or mushroom cultivation When thats done go ahead and return to Moga Village

(Above Left) Youre about ready to leave land behind you in favor of some underwater exploration (Above Right) Swimming deep underwater is easy if you remember that camera manipulation controls your movement when youre below the surface

From the village you should next head for the Moga Woods As you enter Junior will contact you He advises you that the whole of Moga Woods is now available to you to explore Its now possible to hike all the way to the sea which is where you need to head next Your next task is to hunt a Molid at Area 11 Travel in that direction now You can reach it easily by heading right from the entrance and traveling along the outer portion of the map in a counter-clockwise fashion

When you arrive at the deeper water youll start swimming and will receive a mini-tutorial about that type of movement Essentially it just says that you move in the water as you move on land Swim around and when you enter the actual area where the Molid enemies are waiting Junior will pop in with more information on how to proceed You need to dive under the surface of the water and get close to the Molid creatures which look a lot like enormous angelfish As you dive remember to go deeper almost immediately Itll add to your mobility Then you can worry about swimming forward toward your prey All that you need to do is get in close and use your harpoon that the village chief provided you A single hit is enough to down each fish

If youre having trouble swimming underwater though you shouldnt you can get near to jets of bubbles that rise from the ocean floor Theyll refill your oxygen and give you more time to fight When you have defeated a Molid youll be invited to return to the village something that you can now do by selecting that option from the menu Kill another fish or two if youre anxious to gather supplies then take advantage of the option and head

back to town

(Above Left) Your friends at Moga Village have plenty to say upon your return (Above Right) Check in at the Guild to find that a quest is finally available

When you get back to the village youll find that your usual business partners have new things to say to you Talk to the village chief to receive 1500z and talk to his son to manage resources as usual If you have sufficient funds the Outfitter has received some new gear and the artisan will give you a handful of Armor Sphere items that you can use to upgrade your armor through his Armorcraft menu for a surprisingly reasonable price At the market the proprietress has some books that will increase your chances when you attempt to combine items but they are expensive at this stage in the game unless youre ready to go out and grind in the wilds Finally you can head to the farm to retrieve any crops that you may have waiting for you At this point youve completed the introductory game content Its time to start in on your actual adventures

Monster Hunter Tri GuideWalkthrough - Wii Wii Walkthrough - IGN

Thats not necessarily the case though Pay attention as he may come swooping in with a powerful dive that will inflict an unwelcome amount of damage

Another new attack is a trio of fireballs while airborne If you see these coming the best thing that you can do is run around to avoid them Trying to stand your ground and block them with your shield wont necessarily work because the fireballs drain your stamina too quickly

Otherwise the fight is fairly standard stuff Make sure that youre wearing gear thats strong against fire and dragons hit hard and fast to build up damage quickly then follow a limping Rathalos to Area 6 on the map to ground him for good and move onto another quest

One such quest is called A Bards Tale When you accept it you will be asked to hunt a Barioth Youll initially find that monster in Area 2 though on subsequent attempts it will more likely be located in one of the caves along the north side of the map The Barioth looks like a cross between a saber-toothed tiger and a Rathian Its elemental attacks as you might suppose are icy in nature Those are joined by lunges and dives Youll need to move quickly to avoid the physical attacks while staying a safe distance is usually enough to avoid the icy blasts Try to maneuver along your foes flanks to stay in position to deal damage and to avoid rushes most easily Youll still have to worry about a ridiculously long tail so be ready to block as needed

(Above Left) Barioth is a challenging foe with incredible speed range and icy breath on his side (Above Right) Stay in close and you can avoid both the vicious tail and the icy breath attacks that otherwise make this fight so difficult

Another thing to note is that youll do horribly if youre weak to ice attacks Make sure that you have appropriate charms and armor equipped (the Ingot gear is especially appropriate if you have some) Youll likely be looking forward to a rather protracted battle if you rely on your lance and shield combination but they work as well here as anywhere else otherwise and can be useful if you put them to proper use and know when to block

Be careful as you follow Barioth from one area to another Hes capable of pouncing while making his entrance so if you get there ahead of him he may kill you before he is even within range for you to do any attacks When you almost have defeated him hell likely flee to Area 6 so be ready to follow and climb up to the pedestal where he is snoozing to finish the fight Its likely that youve weakened him and have received a Pitfall Trap from the blue supply chest in base camp If so put it to use before waking him Then you can either lure him to his demise as you hit him with a flurry of blows or you can use tranquilizing items to capture him if you prefer

The final quest that you should worry about for now is called The Horned Dragon and is another hunting

quest It takes place in the Sandy Desert area and will find you going up against a Diablos

Youll find soon that Diablos is a tough fellow He first shows up in Area 9 which of course is draped in ridiculous heat by day Make sure that you take a Cool Drink from the supply chest and put it to use before you advance into the hotter zones where your battle with Diablos will mostly take place Youll also want to buff up your armor defenses as your foe is capable of knocking you for a loop stunning you then knocking you for a loop again

(Above Left) Most of the time the safest place to be is below Diablos so that you can avoid his tail and hit his stomach with your weapons (Above Right) When you see him burrowing into the sand you need to keep moving so that he wont burst free from the soil and ram you with his horns

Your best strategy is to move in close and use your weapon on his monstrous feet Watch for movements that indicate that hes about to charge though since you can get trampled in his rush He swings a hammer-tipped tail also one that can clobber you something fierce if it connects with anything but your shield Be careful that you dont get too greedy with combo moves or youll leave yourself open for that damage Getting stunned is about the worst thing that can happen in this fight since it leaves you open for the worst attacks that Diablos can throw your way

Specifically it leaves you open for Diablos to start digging When you see him digging its time to put away your weapons so that you can move quickly or so that you can throw a Sonic Bomb The timing of your toss is important You should throw it so that its arc lands just after the last bit of your enemys tail disappears underground If you timed it correctly youll receive credit for completing a side quest Diablos will be caught as if in a trap and you can move in for a series of powerful strikes before the fight resumes Note that you can only use the Sonic Bomb trick when Diablos is not in his berserk mode If you see black puffs of smoke coming from his nostrils dont waste your item
