"Mastering Nerscylla Hunt in Monster Hunter Wilds"

For fans of *Monster Hunter Wilds*, tackling Nerscylla, the formidable giant spider, is a must. Not only does this creature haunt many due to its arachnid nature, but it also appeared in the *Monster Hunter* film, likely adding to its nightmarish reputation. Nerscylla is also a prime target for those seeking high-affinity weapons. Let's dive into strategies for defeating and capturing this agile adversary.

How to Beat Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

Nerscylla's stats are as follows:

• Weaknesses: Fire, Thunder (When mantle is broken)
• Resistances: Sleep
• Immunities: Sonic Bomb

This spiky, web-slinging monster is not to be underestimated. Its speed and agility are enhanced by its web abilities, which it uses to trap you with webbing, poison you with its bite, and induce sleep with its rear stinger. Nerscylla is a master of status effect damage, making it crucial to bring antidotes for poison and sleep cures to the fight.

When facing Nerscylla, be wary of two main types of attacks. The first includes its bite or pincer attacks, signaled by the spider rearing back with its orange fangs before charging forward to snap them shut. This move not only inflicts poison but also delivers significant damage. To evade, quickly move behind Nerscylla or simply run away.

The second set of attacks involves its web. Nerscylla can shoot web directly at you or in a spread pattern of three. Being hit results in immobilization, but dodging can help you avoid these. Additionally, watch out for its web-charging attacks: a horizontal rush that requires quick blocking or side-dodging, and a vertical swing reminiscent of Spider-Man, which can be evaded with lateral movement.

How to Capture Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

Capturing Nerscylla requires preparation and precision. Start by equipping a Pitfall Trap, a Shock Trap, and Tranq Bombs. While one trap and two Tranq Bombs are technically sufficient, it's wise to bring extras due to the unpredictable nature of *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Engage Nerscylla in combat and reduce its health until it's nearly defeated. Indicators of its weakened state include limping, NPC comments about its vulnerability, and a skull icon appearing next to its marker on the mini-map. Once Nerscylla is on the brink, deploy your trap, lure it in, and then use two Tranq Bombs to successfully capture this formidable foe.
