The fan-favorite monster, Lagiacrus, has emerged from the depths!

Seregios, known for the sharp, blade-like scales covering their bodies, have descended into the wilds!

Remember to bring rations and well-done steaks to counter this status effect! New Tempered Threats After completing the missions for Lagiacrus and Seregios, each will appear in locales as 8★ tempered monsters at Hunter Rank 41 or above. Will you be able to best these powerful beasts?
