Gonngenn Hermitaur are a Lone Species of Daimyo Hermitaur, first introduced in Monster Hunter Online.

Physiology

Gonngenn Hermitaur feature dark brown and white bodies, with their claws notably being covered in numerous crystals of varying size which light up when enraged.

Abilities

Gonngenn fights very much like a normal Daimyo Hermitaur, however there are some changes to their existing attacks, such as, instead of swinging both claws directly in front of it in a scissor-slash, Gonngenn Hermitaur will instead leap towards hunters before doing so if they're out of range. When enraged, exploding crystals will be sent flying off their claws during many of their attacks, damaging hunters they collide with.

Behavior

Gonngenn Hermitaur are very cautious creatures keeping a close eye on everything around them; when threatened they are known to hide behind their pincers in an attempt to blend into the caves they inhabit, however if cornered they will fight back with surprising ferocity.

Habitat

Gonngenn Hermitaur inhabits the cavernous areas of the Esther Lake.

In-Game Description

Monster Hunter Online 分类 甲壳种，大名盾蟹独行种。 生境范围 仅在艾丝特湖地洞穴存有目击记录。 生态位 与原种不同的是，葵盾蟹对自己食谱颇为挑剔。除非食物极端缺乏，他们很少选择食腐。善于隐蔽的葵盾蟹，对待捕猎极有耐心，活跃在洞穴内的草食种和鸟龙种通常是他的捕食对象。 适应性 葵盾蟹被认为是大名盾蟹的一种。其个性极为谨慎，当感到威胁时，通常选择隐蔽或是绝对防御的策略。这使得人们难以发现踪迹，许多书面记录无法得到佐证，一段时间内的目击数量甚至少于某些特异个体，直到最近才被列入新种属可能。 通过对葵盾蟹的甲壳样本进行年代分析，有研究人员认为他的寿命可能非常长久，远远超过一般盾蟹类的甲壳种。在他们漫长的生长过程中大概经历过无数次换壳，直到选中稀有的白一角龙头壳为止。 行为 盛产某种硬质晶体的洞穴是葵盾蟹主要的活动范围。与大名盾蟹坚厚的蟹钳不同，葵盾蟹钳部非常脆弱。为了进行有效的防御，葵盾蟹会攀住洞穴内的特产晶石，用其装饰双钳，以弥补自己最大的弱点。一只成年葵盾蟹经过长久的岁月，双钳与晶体已经完全密合，一旦葵盾蟹发怒，晶石即呈现为金色。当然，石头本身不会变色，但由于其优秀的折光率，猎人们甚至能透过晶体观察到钳部剧烈的血液流动。处于这一状态下的晶石性状变得不太稳定，受到冲撞很容易迸裂，从而引发爆炸。 Threat Level (危険度): (?)
