Getting Frenzy Shards in Monster Hunter Wilds

---------------------------------------------

Frenzy Shards are valuable resources you can obtain by defeating Frenzied monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds. These monsters, infected with the Frenzy Virus, start appearing during High Rank missions. Don't let their familiar appearance fool you; Frenzied monsters are significantly more aggressive and deal increased damage, making them a formidable challenge.

After successfully killing or capturing a Frenzied monster, you'll be rewarded with Frenzy Shards. These shards are essential for forging new weapons and armor, enhancing your arsenal for tougher battles ahead.

Getting Frenzy Crystals in Monster Hunter Wilds

-----------------------------------------------

Frenzy Crystals are another crafting material, but they are exclusively obtained from Gore Magala. When you wound Gore Magala and destroy those wounds, you have a chance to collect Frenzy Crystals.

You'll encounter Gore Magala once you reach High Rank quests and unlock the optional quest titled "Misty Depths". This quest is your gateway to farming these precious crystals.

How to Use Frenzy Shards and Crystals

-------------------------------------

Frenzy Shards function just like any other crafting material in the game. To use them, head to Base Camp and speak with Gemma to start crafting new gear. Here's a list of gear that requires Frenzy Shards:

  • Entbehrung I
  • Fledderklauen I
  • Tyrannearm I
  • Todlicher Abzug I
  • Leumundslist
  • Faulnisschleuder I
  • Eisenleib
  • Elendskraft I
  • Schattenstolz I
  • Wuchtblick I
  • Kummerklang I
  • Eiferschild I
  • Stahlfakt I
  • Sucher-Ankh I
  • Artian Mail
  • Artian Coil
  • Gore Coil
  • Damascus Helm
  • Gore Coil

How to Find Frenzied Monsters

Most High Rank optional quests will feature Frenzied monsters. However, not all monsters in the game are affected by the Frenzy Virus. The exceptions are:

  • Zoh
  • Shia
  • Arkveld
  • Gore Magala

Note that while Gore Magala is immune to the Frenzy Virus itself, it remains a crucial source for farming Frenzy Crystals.

And that's how you can farm Frenzy Shards and Crystals in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
