In-Game Description

Monster Hunter Online 分类 牙兽种，剑极狼亚种。 生境范围 森丘、林地、沼泽均有目击记录。 生态位 尽管在学者们的记录中，剑刹狼被标记为新发现的剑极狼亚种，但其形象早已在于传说和诗歌等文学作品中流传上百年。林地附近的土著居民很早就有绘制与剑刹狼毛色相近的面具，在他们的文化中，剑刹狼犹如神怪，代表着难以想象的怪力和神通，也享受着人类的供奉。也正是由于这种过度的描绘，剑刹狼曾被认为只是人类用想象加工出来的怪物，实际并不存在。 适应性 随着近些年探究领域的不断扩大，书士队终于获得了这一传说中牙兽种的目击报告。剑刹狼的外形与传说中描绘的神怪惊人相似，被母亲们用来恐吓不听话的孩童的可怕吼叫也如出一辙。与原种类似，剑刹狼的背部也拥有可快速再生的骨刺，这些骨刺有鳞化的趋势，且带有某种神经毒素。人类接触后普遍会产生中毒症状，随着毒性的深入则会发生麻痹，对身体失去控制，完全置于剑刹狼制造的恐惧之下。 有趣的是，即使是残留在地面的骨刺也保有毒性效果，虽然毒性会渐渐消退，也会困住误入其中的小型动物。人们常于此后获得食物，将剑刹狼作为神明崇拜也不足为奇了。当然，动物尸体是需要经过去毒处理的，有不明就里的村民由于误食而麻痹了几天的事例也偶有发生。 行为 剑刹狼的背部骨刺拥有了毒性和麻痹效果，对比原种其坚硬度有所减弱，危险性反而大幅提升。剑刹狼的攻击方式同样残暴凶猛，有光线较弱的森林作为遮蔽，剑刹狼更倾向伏击的策略，一旦行动定一击必杀。 Threat Level (危険度): (?)

General Notes

• Purple Slicemargl's head, front arms, back, and tail can be wounded.
• Unlike most other monsters, Purple Slicemargl's do not roar when they enter Rage Mode. Instead, they will slam their arms on the ground in front of them, extending the bones on their arms in the process.
  • Purple Slicemargl's eyes also glow red and leave trails while enraged much like the normal ones.
• Like the normal ones Hunters can only break the arms when it's enraged.
  • Doing this will prevent it from being able to inflict Status Ailments with those parts until the bones regenerate.
