Known Habitats: Iceshard Cliffs

Breakable Parts: Head and Tail

Recommended Elemental Attack: Fire

Effective Status Effects: Poison (3x), Sleep (3x), Paralysis (2x), Blastblight (2x), Stun (2x), Exhaust (2x)

Effective Items: Pitfall Trap, Shock Trap, Flash Pod

Bring Large Dung Pods

Hirabami, a formidable foe in *Monster Hunter Wilds*, often travels in packs, significantly increasing the challenge. Your best friend in this fight? Large Dung Pods. Use them to scatter the pack, allowing you to focus on one Hirabami at a time.

Use Heavy Slicing Pod Slinger Ammo

Hirabami’s aerial prowess makes this fight tricky for melee users. Combat this by utilizing Heavy Slicing Pod Slinger ammo to knock them out of the sky. If you're low on ammo, severing the Hirabami’s tail yields a Tail Claw Shard, which can be crafted into this crucial ammo.

Utilize Environmental Traps

The Iceshard Cliffs arena offers environmental advantages. Ice Spikes, Floating Rubble, and Brittle Ice Pillars can be strategically triggered to stun and damage the Hirabami, giving you a crucial edge.

Aim for the Head

The head remains the most vulnerable point, though Hirabami's aerial antics make it a challenging target. Ranged weapons have a clear advantage, while melee users should aim for the neck during its descent.

Watch the Tail

Hirabami employs a variety of attacks, including biting, spitting, and a devastating dive attack. While dodging these is crucial, be equally mindful of its powerful tail swipe which can easily incapacitate you.

To capture Hirabami, reduce its health to 20% or less (indicated by a skull icon on the mini-map). Quickly set a Pitfall Trap or Shock Trap, then immediately use a Tranquilizer to subdue it. Time is of the essence; a missed shot means a lost capture opportunity. While capturing offers a guaranteed reward, it reduces the chance of obtaining extra materials from weak point hits.

Mastering these strategies will greatly increase your chances of success against the challenging Hirabami. Remember to use Large Dung Pods or the SOS flare for extra support when needed.
