Unlocking Agitator Power in Monster Hunter Wilds

by

In the game “Monster Hunter Wilds,” the heartbeat sensor serves as an effective tool for estimating a giant beast’s vitality, yet it also helps determine whether they’re in a state of rage or calm. Understanding a monster’s behavior is key to figuring out when and how to launch an attack.

The Agitator Talent provides some bonuses to your hunter when a beast becomes enraged, allowing you to keep pace and maintain an edge during combat. Let me explain how the Agitator skill functions as well as how to identify when a big monster gets enraged.

The Agitator Ability enhances your hunter with a few perks whenever a creature becomes agitated, enabling you to keep up and stay one step ahead in battle. Here’s an overview of the Agitator skill and how to recognize when a large monster gets agitated.

How Does The Agitator Skill Work In Monster Hunter Wilds

The Agitator talent becomes active when a massive beast becomes enraged, enhancing your attack power and affinity throughout the duration of its rage. To determine if a creature is enraged, make sure to follow them using Scoutflies so their heartbeat monitor at the bottom left corner of the screen activates. The color of the lines signifies the beast’s anger level, with blue indicating it’s relatively calm and red indicating it’s extremely agitated.

  • A notification will appear along the right side of the screen whenever Agitator activates or deactivates.
  • The corresponding buffs will appear above your health bar in the top left of the screen while the skill is active.
  • Monsters losing the enraged status will immediately end the Agitator skill.
  • Monsters can stay enraged when fighting other monsters, though this shouldn’t be relied on.

In other words, it’s impossible to deliberately provoke a monster into becoming angry. However, as you inflict significant damage on the monster, its demeanor changes and its heartbeat turns red, signaling it has become enraged. Your Palico may warn you that the monster is enraged, keeping your focus on the battle. When monsters are enraged, they tend to exhaust themselves during a few minutes of combat. You’ll notice their heartbeats return to blue whenever you exit the fight for any reason.

When angered, monsters become far more aggressive and frenzied in their attacks. To give yourself an edge, think about setting traps to hinder them, and utilize this skill effectively.
