Deserts

From Monster Hunter Wiki

Deserts are arid environments containing sand, rocky mountains, and canyons. Most of the desert's areas have very high temperatures that will drain a hunter's health, but a Cool Drink will prevent health loss. Deserts have an unusual climate in which, during the day it is brutally hot, and during the night, excruciating cold.

[edit] Ecosystem

Inhabitants of the desert areas include: Genprey, Gendrome, Cephalos, Cephadrome, and the herbivorous Apceros. Apceros and Genprey tend to nest at the cooler areas of desert caves. Cephalos are usually seen in these regions, swimming and jumping in the sand. Deserts are largely barren and uninhabited by humans, and as a result are popular areas of civilization for Felyne and Melynx.

Dromes such as the Cephadrome and Gendrome also lurk in this region. It is also the exclusive living area of all Monoblos and Diablos. Rathian typically visit this desolated environment to lay their eggs away from many predators and hunting humans. Plesioth inhabit the lower watery caves and rivers of the desert regions. It is also a common living place for Daimyo Hermitaur, Plum Daimyo Hermitaur, Copper Blangonga and Tigrex. The Barroth enjoy rolling in the mud to keep itself cool from the scorching heat of the desert.

[edit] Exclusive Field Items

Cactus Flowers can only be obtained from the cactus plants found in the desert.
