Who are the Three Lords monsters in Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak?
Nine new monsters have been added to Monster Hunter Rise with the Sunbreak expansion. Some of them are subspecies of existing monsters, like the Aurora Almudron. These are more variants, but can be very different to hunt compared to their basic forms.
Of the nine, there are three monsters that are slightly different from the others. These are the Three Lords, and are most closely tied to Sunbreak’s main story. Here is some information about each:
Malzeno
Malzeno is a brand new Elder Dragon, covered in silver scales. It drains energy and life force from other creatures, attacking its prey from behind. It can inflict the new Bloodblight status, which naturally recovers health, gradually drains health, and decreases the effect of healing items.
Garangolm
The garangolm has a huge, rigid body, covered in natural armor reinforced by a sap-like fluid. They can use this sap to harden the soil and flora in the area around them, thus strengthening their defense.
Lunagaron
Finally, we have Lunagaron. She is a fanged wyvern with an organ that cools the air she inhales. It is a very hardy creature, able to thermoregulate itself and travel long distances. Due to this unique thermoregulation, they can live in a variety of habitats.
