Nerscylla's arsenal is packed with debilitating status effects. Its attacks fall into two main categories: bite and web attacks. The bite attack sees Nerscylla rearing back, revealing its fangs, before charging forward for a powerful, poison-inflicting strike. Dodge behind it or quickly evade to avoid this high-damage attack. Its web attacks are equally dangerous. It can shoot webs directly, in a three-shot spread, or charge at you horizontally or from above using its webs. Mastering evasive maneuvers is key to surviving these attacks.

Capturing Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

To capture Nerscylla, preparation is paramount. Bring Pitfall Traps, Shock Traps, and Tranq Bombs (though one trap and two bombs are technically sufficient, bringing extra is always recommended given the unpredictable nature of *Monster Hunter Wilds* hunts). Weaken Nerscylla until it limps and a skull icon appears on your minimap. Then, strategically place a trap, lure Nerscylla into it, and quickly deploy two Tranq Bombs to secure the capture.
