MONSTER HUNTER: WORLD Walkthrough Gameplay Part 6 - Urgent: Pukei-Pukei Hunt
Urgent: Pukei-Pukei Hunt
To further explore the lava slag found while hunting the Great Jagras, the scholars requested that the Pukei-Pukei be taken out. Make sure to pick up the extra supplies in the supply box upon entering the quest, especially the Antidotes. We’ll be dealing with Poison, so be ready.
You’ll find Pukei floating around zone 6, so entering through the zone 11 campsite is most likely your best bet. Track it as normal until you come upon it. When fighting Pukei try not to be anywhere in front of its mouth. Its long tongue and toxic projectiles make its front the most dangerous spot.
Be wary of its toxic spit attack, remember those Antidotes (or Herbal Medicine)? Time to use em. If you get poisoned by this attack, disengage with the monster and then use one, ridding yourself of poison. Follow it up with a potion to heal any damage it took before re-engaging back into the fray.
Try to sever Pukei’s tail to decrease the range it has when spin attacking. While the poison may be a bit of a challenge, this quest shouldn’t give you too many issues. Defeating the Pukei-Pukei sets you out to complete The Best Kind of Hunt, which opens up the new location, the Wildspire Waste.
