There is a whole field of Snowfield Ili Pika on the road between Zwier Highlands and Bronte’s Bolt at a pond. You can’t loot them, but get knowledge if you after that.
Hello 🙂 Thanks for the tip!
Maurisa thanks for the input! I always hunted the rare named hunting monsters with the battle armor equipped. At a minimum 300 DP you can stand there and take a beating from the winter bear without losing health. After the kill switch out to hunter and butcher it! Works for shadowlions as well!
Hello 🙂 That’s a great tip! Those winter bears are PAINFUL!
