Monster Hunter Stories 2 - Elder Dragon VELKHANA - SR Ticket Den/Epic Showdown/Hatching/Flying
5Timestamps are given below!
Showing my (successful) effort to get the elder ice dragon Velkhana! This is also a bit of a showcase of my Nergigante who is fully built now. This is the elder dragon I have the most trouble with, simply because I need to use warming curatives. I'm not built to handle Velkhana without them. I feel bad for anyone after its materials!
There's a certain (complicated) way to fight Velkhana and if you deviate from it, it can really mess you up. Should you win you're NOT guaranteed that any of the eggs will be Velkhana or if they are, that you'll find the rainbow variety. In this instance though, I got what I wanted and actually got away with rejecting a "normal glow" Velkhana. SAVING YOUR GAME is strongly recommended before using an SR ticket!
This den does not guarantee that you'll fight Velkhana, you might have to fight Rajang instead (who I find easier).
Anyway, excellent monstie once you have it!
This is a "solo" run with no human assistance though I got given the AI "Warks". Sometimes Warks does really stupid things, other times very useful.
Nargacuga is just along for mobility and stealth. Nargacuga has the fastest normal pace. Nergigante can cope with roaring through the den but for anyone who's mained Nargacuga for any length of time, anything slower is a bit painful to watch. (Speaking of Nargacuga, Silverwind Nargacuga is next on my list!)
Someone asked me if I was going to show any gene builds so you can consider this video a fulfillment of that as it features my completed Nergigante build (which is pretty much my version of Paradise Central's Nergigante...). "Solo" is a relative word in a game that forces "driver & monstie" and prescribes you an AI co-op partner, but when I say "Nergigante solo" I simply mean that's the only monstie I use.
Anyone wanting to do multiplayer solo, I recommend using local co-op as I did here. Apparently there's a problem with multiplayer being cluttered with private rooms.
