Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance Monster Database
Complete database of all 33 monsters with elemental weaknesses, threat levels, habitats, weak points, and hunting guides — including Ascendance DLC confirmed elders.
The first large monster you fight in Monster Hunter Wilds. Chatacabra is an amphibian that coats its forearms with rocks to amplify its punches. Its tongue is the key weak point — attack it when extended to stagger the beast.
A bird wyvern that ignites its tail with flammable secretions to whip flames across the battlefield. Severing the tail stops its fire attacks — a classic Monster Hunter strategy.
A flower-like temnoceran that fires paralyzing needles from its rose-shaped tail. Its petal attack spreads paralysis across a wide arc — break the petals to reduce the radius.
A returning fanged beast from Monster Hunter 2. Congalala attacks with gas and stench clouds that inflict a foul status — deodorant is essential, or the stench will make you lose control of your hunter.
A leviathan that burrows through sand like a snake, surfacing to spit pressurized water jets. Watch the sand ripples to predict where it will erupt, then punish the mouth when it spits.
A massive fanged beast that leads packs across the plains. Its belly is the safest weak point — attacks there deal good damage while avoiding its bone-crushing fangs.
A leviathan with a vast, water-filled mantle that it uses to douse the forest in flood-level tides. Thunder is by far its biggest weakness — the apex of the Scarlet Forest.
A bird wyvern adapted to the toxic pools of the Oilwell Basin. It inflates its toxic sac to spray poison gas — Water weapons disrupt its gas management and force openings.
The apex of the Windward Plains, a flying wyvern that channels thunder through its horn-shaped head. It absorbs Thunder damage — never bring thunder weapons. Water is king here.
A returning temnoceran from Monster Hunter 4. Nerscylla wraps prey in silk and attacks with venomous pincers. Fire destroys its web armor — strip the hide to expose raw flesh.
A leviathan that glides through the frozen cliffs using its ribbon-like body. It breathes ice that freezes the ground — Fire weapons melt both its attacks and its armor.
A fanged beast that heats its fists with volcanic magma, unleashing explosive punches. Water weapons cancel its heat and cause its magma fists to cool and crack.
The apex of the Oilwell Basin — a giant octopus-like monster that erupts from magma pits, spewing fire from its many tentacles. Water weapons and focus on the mouth while it vents.
An artificial Guardian variant of Doshaguma created by ancient Wyverian technology. Unlike the natural beast, it is weak to nearly every element — Fire, Ice, Thunder, and Dragon all work.
An artificial Guardian of the King of the Skies. It retains Rathalos fire and poison attacks but loses its fire immunity. Thunder is the best element here.
An elder dragon-level leviathan that commands the Iceshard Cliffs. Its ice breath freezes entire arenas and its chest glows before devastating elemental attacks. Fire is essential.
A Guardian version of the Ebony Odogaron from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. It trades bleed for dragon-element attacks — Water is the key weakness.
A mysterious spider-like monster from the Wyveria ruins that cloaks itself in darkness. Ice is its only true weakness — Dragon damage does nothing.
An artificial Guardian of the flagship monster Arkveld. Its chainblade whips are the key target — hitting them with cut, blunt, or ammo damage destabilizes its attacks. Dragon is its only real weakness.
The hidden final boss of Monster Hunter Wilds, an artificial god-like dragon sealed beneath Wyveria. It is immune to Flash Pods, traps, and status effects — Dragon damage is the only strong element.
The classic first bird wyvern of the series returns. Yian Kut-Ku is an agile, ear-flapping nuisance — Water is its main weakness, and its long ears are an excellent target.
A rubber-skinned bird wyvern that plays dead to lure hunters in. Its rubber hide is immune to Thunder — Fire and Ice are the go-to elements. Beware the flash from its head crest.
The Queen of the Land — the series icon returns. Rathian is a fire-breathing flying wyvern whose tail delivers deadly poison. Thunder is her biggest weakness; sever the tail to remove the poison threat.
The Guardian variant of Fulgur Anjanath from Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. It channels thunder through its glowing nasal crest — Water is the answer.
The King of the Skies and the most iconic monster in Monster Hunter. Rathalos rules the skies with fireballs and poison talons. Thunder weapons, Flash Pods, and tail cuts are the classic strategy.
A rock-armored flying wyvern returning from Monster Hunter Freedom. Gravios is covered in armor plating — break the plating first to expose soft flesh, then hit with Water weapons.
A fanged beast from Monster Hunter 2 that leads ice-white packs through the cliffs. Its fangs are the threat — Fire weapons melt its ice affinity quickly.
The flagship of Monster Hunter 4 returns, spreading its Frenzy virus across Wyveria. Fire is the top weakness — Water does nothing. Break the head to stop Frenzy-spreading attacks.
The flagship monster of Monster Hunter Wilds — a rare species thought extinct. Its chainblade whips channel raw dragon energy. Only Dragon element is effective; focus the chainblades with cut/blunt/ammo damage.
The elegant flagship of Monster Hunter Generations returns via Title Update. Mizutsune coats the battlefield in slippery bubbles that send hunters sliding. Thunder is its biggest weakness.
The Steel Dragon returns for its third consecutive DLC appearance in Ascendance. Kushala Daora is a wind-wielding elder dragon whose black tornadoes deflect bullets and blades. Its metal hide sheds elemental attacks — Elderseal and Dragon weapons are the classic answer.
The colossus of the series returns for the first time since Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate. Lao-Shan Lung is a siege-scale elder dragon that marches toward the Cloud Realm capital — you must stop it before it destroys the fortress.
The flagship monster of Ascendance revealed at the end of the announcement trailer — a colossal leviathan soaring through the clouds of the Cloud Realm Ruins. Details are limited, but it appears to command water and sky simultaneously.
