Monster Hunter Wiki


Ivory Lagiacrus is a Leviathan and a Subspecies of Lagiacrus introduced in Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate.

Physiology[]

It sports a briny white body, unlike the usual blue of Lagiacrus. In addition, the various knobs, spines and horns on its body are a deep blue, compared to the common Lagiacrus's brown and orange.

Abilities[]

It has many enhanced and powerful thunder attacks that can cover a wider area than those of the common Lagiacrus.

Behavior[]

Unlike the other two species of Lagiacrus, Ivory Lagiacrus prefers a terrestrial lifestyle and spends very little of its time in the water.

Habitat[]

Despite its almost exclusively terrestrial lifestyle, Ivory Lagiacrus tends to live in areas with large bodies of water, such as the Deserted Island and Flooded Forest.

Notes[]

General Notes

  • Ivory Lagiacrus feeds on carcasses, Aptonoth, or Slagtoth to regain stamina.
  • Ivory Lagiacrus, along with Azure Rathalos are the first subspecies to appear in the opening cinematic of a Monster Hunter game, and the only subspecies to be rendered using a CG engine.
  • Ivory Lagiacrus is generally better adapted to land than normal Lagiacrus. However, it is still possible to fight the Ivory Lagiacrus underwater.
  • The Moga Village Chief notes that the Ivory Lagiacrus is his arch-nemesis and was the very reason he stopped hunting.
  • Ivory Lagiacrus was voted 97th place in the Hunters' Choice for Top Monster during Monster Hunter's 20th Anniversary.[1]

  • Cutting weapons will bounce off the head of the Ivory Lagiacrus.
  • The Ivory Lagiacrus can now fire a more potent lightning ball that can create an AOE that can inflict heavy damage.
