Akantor

The mysterious wyvern Akantor is one of the most powerful monsters encountered in Monster Hunter Freedom 2. It has powerful claws, three layers of 3 heavy spikes, a clawed tail & it's trademark Tusks. Often, Akantor is hunted for both their Bow & Armor

It is the "final boss" of the game after it is unlocked after completing the dreaded High Rank Shen Gaoren urgent quest. Literally, their japanese title is "Supreme Monster" refering it's tremendous strength that it uses to deliver a huge blow which may leave Villages damaged or Hunters injured.

Akantor's Type of Appearance

 * Although some believe that Akantor is an Elder Dragon, it's body structure and similarities to other wyverns such as the Tigrex indicates that it is a Wyvern, albeit an amazingly powerful one.
 * It shares the wings which have developed into strong forelegs with the other "Pseudo-Wyverns", however, in the case of Akantor, the vestigial webbing has entirely been encased in a large, thick plating in its forelegs.
 * This combined with its incredibly large and thick plating prevents it from gliding like the Tigrex and Narugakaruga can.

Trivia

 * To do the Akantor Glitch, Akantor must do the dig then you must run over between two small rocks. When there's a quake, immediately press the O(English) or X(Japanese) button to leap out to reach the unreachable ledge of the Battleground area. This allows bowmen to kill Akantor with ease. The glitch has been diagnosed as "harmless" so it wont corrupt your save file.


 * While Akantor is immune to High-frequeny sounds, it is sensitive to shocks of sounds which surprises it into being stunned at the ground for 10 seconds. However in rage mode, Akantor's sensitivity to shocks of sounds is immuned.
 * With Akantor's sensitivity to shocks of sounds, throw a sonic bomb before Akantor's wind tunnel protrudes from it's mouth.
 * When a sonic bomb is thrown there is also a slight chance of it dropping a shiny.


 * Literrally, Akantor's name is likely based on it's japanese name, Akamutorumu because in comparison, Akantor forms into a name by taking Akamutorumu with an "n" being the addition to the name
