So I went and did the 3* village quest "Into the Wyvern's Den" I was expecting to run into a rathalos in the nest but to my surprise, some unknown majestic beast slept in peace. So I did what any hunter would do and smashed it in the face with a big sword... it didn't appreciate. I had to wear this thing, it looked too cool not to. A long fight followed but eventually I killed it, having broken both wings, the head, having cut off the tail, and gotten 4 scales and 2 shells from shinies/tail carve. I brought back one of the 2 eggs needed, but a melynx made me drop the second egg in zone 1 due to low stamina and made me lose the quest because I ran out of time.
I am now farming pawprint stamps.
Edit: After a bit of melynx genocide I decided to go after the Astalos(or whatever its name was) that was in the egg mission, except this time I was actually coming prepared. I bring traps, tranqs, might/adamant seeds, extra meat, drink a mega demondrug/armorskin at the start of the quest, go to the nest and... this time it's a velocidrome. D:<
That velocidrome couldn't contain all of my disappointment, it lasted all of 20 seconds.
Edit2: I just went on a quest to kill a bulldrome, but something else was there. It didn't give me its name so I'll call it Mr. Bubbles Von Fabullefluff. While that thing hits like a truck it is laughably easy to avoid. The only times it hit me were because of the bulldrome, which was a bigger threat than it... even the trash mobs were more annoying than Bubbles. Due to having to constantly deal with the bulldrome and the fight slowing down once I ran out of stamina(wasn't expecting a big boss fight), I was unable to get through its hp in time. BTW, what does the bubbles debuff do? I really didn't notice anything off with it.
