"Conquer Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds: Capture Guide"

Facing Nerscylla in *Monster Hunter Wilds* can be quite the challenge, especially for those who find spiders unsettling. Known for its high-affinity weapons, this monster also made a memorable appearance in the *Monster Hunter* film, likely fueling some nightmares. Let’s dive into how to conquer this formidable arachnid.

How to Beat Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

Nerscylla's arsenal includes web-based attacks, poison bites, and sleep-inducing stingers, making it a master of status effects. Here are its key characteristics:

• Weaknesses: Fire, Thunder (when its mantle is broken)
• Resistances: Sleep
• Immunities: Sonic Bomb

This spiky spider is not just fast but also agile, thanks to its web-slinging capabilities. It can immobilize you with webbing, poison you with its bite, and even put you to sleep with its rear stinger. To counter these, make sure you have items to cure both sleep and poison; otherwise, you'll find yourself in a precarious position.

Watch out for its two main attack types: bite and web attacks. The bite attacks are signaled by Nerscylla rearing back, exposing orange fangs, and then lunging forward to snap them shut. These inflict poison and deal significant damage. To dodge, position yourself behind it or simply run away.

For web attacks, Nerscylla can either shoot a direct stream of web or spit three webs at different angles in succession. Being webbed means being stuck, so dodge to avoid this. Additionally, it can perform a swift horizontal charge with web, which you can block or dodge sideways. Another move involves the spider swinging upward like Spider-Man; sidestepping will help you evade this attack.

How to Capture Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

Capturing Nerscylla requires preparation and precision. Equip yourself with a Pitfall Trap, a Shock Trap, and Tranq Bombs. While you technically need only one trap and two Tranq Bombs, having extras can be a lifesaver in the unpredictable world of *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Engage Nerscylla in battle and weaken it until it's on the brink of defeat. You'll know it's ready to be captured when it starts limping, your NPC teammates mention its weakened state, or a small skull appears on the mini-map next to its icon. Once it's weak, set your trap, lure Nerscylla into it, and then throw two Tranq Bombs to secure your capture.
