Monster Hunter Wilds Hirabami Boss Fight Guide How to Capture Hirabami in Monster Hunter Wilds
Hirabami Encounter Details:
- Known Habitats: Iceshard Cliffs
- Breakable Parts: Head and Tail
- Recommended Elemental Attack: Fire
- Effective Status Effects: Poison (3x), Sleep (3x), Paralysis (2x), Blastblight (2x), Stun (2x), Exhaust (2x)
- Effective Items: Pitfall Trap, Shock Trap, Flash Pod
Strategies for Defeating Hirabami:
-
Utilize Large Dung Pods: Hirabami travel in packs. Large Dung Pods effectively disperse them, allowing for individual takedowns.
-
Employ Heavy Slicing Pod Slinger Ammo: Hirabami's aerial mobility poses a challenge for melee fighters. Heavy Slicing Pod Slinger ammo, or a severed tail (yielding Tail Claw Shards, which craft into the ammo), brings them down.
-
Leverage Environmental Traps: The Iceshard Cliffs arena offers Ice Spikes, Floating Rubble, and Brittle Ice Pillars. Dropping these on Hirabami stuns and inflicts damage.
-
Target the Head: Prioritize head attacks for maximum damage. Ranged weapons have an advantage; melee users should aim for the neck when Hirabami descends. The torso boasts high defense.
-
Beware the Tail: Hirabami employs biting, spitting, and diving attacks. While its head movements indicate these, be cautious of its tail swipe. Maintain mobility while keeping its attacks in sight.
Capturing Hirabami:
To capture Hirabami, reduce its health to 20% or less (indicated by a skull icon on the minimap). Quickly set a Pitfall or Shock Trap and utilize a Tranquilizer. Time is critical; failure results in escape. Capture ends the fight, granting rewards but potentially reducing extra material drops from weak point hits.
Additional Tips:
Bring Large Dung Pods or utilize the SOS feature for assistance.
