Arbiter Estrellian are a Rare Species of Estrellian, first introduced in Monster Hunter Online.

Physiology

Arbiter Estrellian resemble their relatives, Estrellian and Doom Estrellian, in body structure, but has a black slight dark brownish ash color on the top its neck through tail. It has a darker scale tone on the shoulders and upper legs while the front legs have a grayish color as well as its hind legs, but with a darker tone. Instead of orange scales on its face, Arbiter Estrellian has black scales with three pair of uneven red feather-like spikes on its lower pale jaw.

Like the other Estrellian, it has long fiery antennae, a pair of large white slight curved horn on its cheeks, a pair of antlers that is black and larger than its relative. Its frilled ears are red instead slightly light brown like its relative.

In its armored state, like Estrellian, Arbiter Estrellian has a spiky armor which covered its head, neck, wrists, shoulders, back, upper hind legs, and tail. Instead of a fiery orange, its spiked armor is gray in color and they are actually encrusted Destruction Star Butterflies.

In its final charged state, the butterflies Arbiter Estrellian used to armor itself becomes active, much like it's relatives. While in this state, an Arbiter Estrellian's neck, body, wrists, and tail protrudes the fiery-red wings of it's butterflies.

Abilites

Unlike it's relatives, Arbiter Estrellian begin hunts in their armored state, and their bodies will always be protected by it's butterflies until death.

Although an Arbiter Estrellian's armored state is noticeably more limited then it's relatives' versions, lacking the ability to perform backflip attacks or launch it's butterflies as projectiles, it compensates for this hindrance with it's destructive final charge state. When an Arbiter Estrellian enters it's final charged state, not only does the monster power and speed increase, but many of it's melee attacks gain the ability to steal Hunter Art energy, while all of it's ranged attacks utilizes the Dragon Element and inflicts Dragonblight.

Arbiter Estrellian commands Destruction Star Butterflies. Unlike their fiery cousins utilized by other Estrellian species, these variants instead inflict Dragonblight upon detonation, and Arbiter Estrellian are capable of instantly commanding these butterflies to charge their enemies without walking first. Arbiter Estrellian are also capable of detonating their butterflies with their own attacks, however, this can be prevented if all of an Arbiter Estrellian's active Destruction Star Butterflies are killed prior to the order.

Behavior

Arbiter Estrellians might be active predators due to it being in its armored state when encountered by hunters. Strangely, It will actively hunt its relatives to either kill them or driving them out of its territory. Interesting enough, after it eliminated its relatives, some kind of natural disaster happens in Arbiter Estrellian's territory, which gives it the nickname, Creator of Natural Disasters.

Arbiter Estrellian are the strongest known Estrellian variation.

Habitat

Arbiter Estrellian are mainly known to inhabit the Ancestral Tomb, but have also been spotted in the Moonlands on occasion.

In-Game Description

Monster Hunter Online 分类 不明，星龙稀少种。 目前，对于灭星龙的种属，学术界仍争论不休。 生境范围 升月之地、旧王陵寝。仅在遗迹区域内有目击报告。 生态位 在星龙的狩猎记录突破零之后，有关灭星龙的目击报告在近一段时间内终于得到证实。这是一种拥有与传说之龙类似体态的怪物，在生存模式和行为方式上却截然相反。 灭星龙的出没场所总与遗迹有关，根据分析，构成灭星龙食谱中的主菜却是一种神秘矿石，这类矿石曾为龙人一族大量开采发掘，并作为某种建筑的原材料。这一特性为其种属又添上一层神秘色彩。 适应性 仅从外形来看，灭星龙似乎只是星龙的变异进化种，其头部伸出的狭长双角和较暗的体色，是区分原种的主要特征。但从得到的少量血液样本来看，龙属性的充盈更接近于古龙的能量反应，也即是说灭星龙可能比星龙更接近于古龙的特征，极有可能是星龙的成长形态之一。 灭星龙与天灾存在的某种联系，一直是学者们热衷研究的课题。最为流行的说法是，应存在某种大型古龙类怪物的活跃，导致灭星龙的觉醒。灭星龙与星龙的群体关系似乎是放牧模式，有学城附近的村民宣称，他们亲眼见过灭星龙驱赶星龙离开他们的居留地，随后那片区域就发生了恐怖的天灾。灭星龙究竟是天灾的缔造者，还是预言者，亟待更多证据佐证。 行为 与原种不同的是，灭星龙控场的能量波动似乎能够消弭细胞的活性，从而达到窃取斗气的效果。 灭星龙一旦被激怒，身体将呈现出完全不同的毁灭状态。相对于原种，灭星龙的身体结构发育更为完全，攻击对手迅捷敏锐且毫不留情，灭星龙拥有比星龙更为强大的星羽蝶，数量与杀伤性成倍增加，其控制力也不容小觑。 Threat Level (危険度): !!!!!!!

General Notes

• An Arbiter Estrellian's head, each front leg, torso and tail can be broken, and its tail can be severed.
  • Its only possible to break any of Arbiter Estrellian parts while it's enraged.
• The majority of an Arbiter Estrellian physical attacks will cause Hunter Art gauges to drop significantly, while slaying Destruction Star Butterflies will accelerate Hunter Art charge.
• Mechanically, unlike other Estrellian, Arbiter Estrellian final charged state is treated as an Rage state. This means that Arbiter Estrellian will only enter this state after taking a significant amount of damage, and that this state activates hunter skills such as Challenger and Fighter.
• Unlike Estrellian and Doom Estrellian, who order all of their butterflies to charge a hunter at once, Arbiter Estrellian will only order one of it's butterflies to perform this suicidal attack, while allowing the other butterflies to continue with other tasks, such as distracting the hunter or protecting the Arbiter Estrellian.
• In G2-Rank and onwards, Arbiter Estrellian will exit their enraged state by curling their bodies and releasing a potent wave of Dragon energy.
