The Quematrice, a large avian monster resembling a Cockatrice, primarily attacks with fire. While most weapons are effective, its area-of-effect attacks favor ranged weapons for less experienced hunters.
Key attacks to watch out for include its tail slams (especially the powerful overhead slam), and its various fire attacks. These fire attacks not only inflict direct damage but also inflict burning, steadily draining your health and potentially igniting the ground. These attacks lack clear visual cues, ranging from a simple head-rear and roar followed by a tail-fired flame, to a full sweep after a head and tail raise, or even a charging attack with a last-second fire blast. For ranged combatants, retreating is the best counter to the charging fire attack.
How to Capture Quematrice in Monster Hunter Wilds
Capturing the Quematrice requires preparation. Bring Shock and Pitfall Traps, along with at least two Tranquilizer Bombs. While one trap suffices, a backup is highly recommended.
Once the Quematrice is significantly weakened (indicated by limping or a disappearing skull icon on the mini-map), strategically place a trap. Ideally, wait until it moves to a new area after limping. Lure it into the trap, then deploy two Tranquilizer Bombs for a successful capture.
