Monster Hunter Wilds: Arkveld (Large Monster)

Arkveld (also called White Wraith) is a large Monster that you can slay or capture in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Characteristics: A flying wyvern that was considered extinct according to documents left behind by the Guild. Their wings have a unique, chain-like blade that can extend and retract freely to reap their prey. They feed on elemental energy absorbed through these chainblades, and are able to convert the energy to unleash dragon element attacks.

Helpful Hints: The more energy this monster absorbs, the more ferocious its attacks become. Once they fill their energy tanks, their chainblades will sweep out to attack an even wider area. Conversely, since their wings possess organs that absorb energy, a hunter can force the energy to leak out by focusing attacks there. Flooding them with continuous elemental attacks will eventually overload the organs, forcing the monster out of its enhanced state.
