- Copypaste from prior thread, thank you for your hard work anon
- ==Did some research on Tempered Monsters in MHW==
- And collected them in this post for easy digestion.
- ==What is a tempered monster?==
- Tempered monsters are the endgame/postgame monsters in MHW.
- They are just like the regular monsters, but have increased attack power (enough to one shot geared hunters with certain attacks.)
- Tempered monsters also have a purple outline in their icon and leave blue tracks.
- Investigations with tempered monsters also have purple reward boxes.
- Categorically the tempered monsters fall into 3 groups:
- >1st tier, HR 13+.
- Pukei-Pukei
- Barroth
- Jyuratodus
- Tobi-Kadachi
- Radobaan
- Paolumu
- Rathian
- Anjanath
- >2nd tier, HR 30+
- Rathalos (confirmed by another Anon)
- A.Rathalos
- P.Rathian
- Diablos
- B.Diablos
- Odogaron
- Legiana
- Bazelgeuse
- Lavasioth
- Uragaan
- >3rd tier, HR 50+
- Nergigantte
- Teostra
- Kushala Daora
- Vaal Hazak
- Kirin
- Higher the tier, the better the rewards.
- Note: the highest rarity drops are exclusive to the 3rd tier.
- ==Where to fight them?==
- Tempered monsters are primarily investigation only, there are also few quests that pit you against tempered monsters.
- Tempered monster investigations are generally unlocked by gathering tempered tracks in expeditions. (These tracks seem to always spawn in the same spots)
- You can also them the same way as normal investigations when hunting tempered monsters. (break parts, gather tracks) But the chance is very low.
- They are also found under Investigations section when responding to S.O.S.
- ==Why fight them?==
- Tempered monsters drop streamstones in rewards and tempered monster investigations reward either streamstones or feystones.
- Streamstones are used to augment Armor. They also come in different rarities.
- Streamstones can also be used at the melding pot to create new random decorations out of the old ones.
- You can also rarely get "warrior's streamstone" from 2nd tier upwards, they come in different types like Axe (Switch Axe & Charge Blade), Ranged (Bowgun's & Bow), etc, and can be used to augment the corresponding weapon types.
- Warrior's streamstones also have a rare version called "hero's streamstone" needed for augmenting Tier 8 weapons.
- Note: that lower rarity armor require lower rarity streamstones to augment and lower rarity weapons have more augment slots.
- Feystones turn into decorations when identified, and come in several different rarities.
- This is the only real way of getting rare decorations, and the fastest way of getting decorations in general.
- There are decorations for at least some of the set bonuses present in the game. (Bonus charge level for bow, Extra damage on non elemental weapons, etc).
- ==Augmenting quick and dirty==
- Weapons can be Augmented following ways:
- Increased attack (+5 raw)
- Increased affinity (+10%)
- Bonus defense (+10)
- Extra slots (potentially upgrade existing slot)
- Heal on attack
- Note: Numbers can potentially vary depending on weapon type.
- Rarity 8 weapons have 1 augment slot, Rarity 7 has 2 and Rarity 6 has 3.
- Each augment also requires different plates and gems for different monsters.
- Note: A weapon must be at the end of it's upgrade path to be augmented.
