Hunters, Numbers of Coral Pukei-Pukei, Legiana, Rathian, Arzuros, and Pukei-Pukei are on the rise, Deviljho invasions are expected to increase in volatile territories, and we should even see some Gold Rathian appearances! Reports also show that a brand-new type of driftstone can be obtained when slaying monsters during this event. This new driftstone may grant your armor the skills Critical Boost, Critical Eye, and Weakness Exploit. In addition, look out for Premium Quests, which can be exchanged for Gems in the in-game shop. Don’t miss this chance to hunt large monsters and upgrade your equipment with driftsmelting!

Hunters, Numbers of Azure Rathalos, Glavenus, Rathalos, Aknosom, Basarios, and Anjanath are on the rise, and Silver Rathalos are also showing some increased activity! This is a great opportunity to upgrade your fire-element weapons, so we’ve prepared quests that will task you with slaying Silver Rathalos, Azure Rathalos, and other monsters. Complete them all to earn yourself a Silver Rathalos Plate, Glavenus Plate, Wyvern Gem Shard, and more! Additionally, all weapons forged and upgraded with materials from these monsters will be boosted based on monster difficulty. With Chameleos on the way, this is the perfect time to upgrade your fire-element weapons!

Hunters, There are signs of increased monster activity, and Zinogre, Rajang, Tigrex, Jyuratodus, and Rathian are all on the move! We’re also expecting Dimensional Rifts to cause an increase in dimensionally linked monsters. To help you take advantage of this surge, we’ve prepared limited-time quests focused on group hunts. Complete all quests to earn valuable rewards like a Tigrex Plate and Gold Rajang Pelt. You’ll also get boosted rewards for both group hunts and Hunt-a-thons during the event! During this event, all bows will receive performance boosts based on the strength of the monsters you hunt, making it easier than ever to go bow-hunting. We’ve also added limited-time quests that require you to take down monsters using a bow. Use this opportunity to forge and upgrade your bows!
