General Notes

• Rhenoplos can be summoned by Qurupeco while fighting in the Sandy Plains.
• Unlike most Small Monsters, an entire armor set can be crafted from Rhenoplos materials.
• During the quest "Best the Lava Beasts," if a hunter runs past the 2 Rhenoplos and 4 Lynians in Area 8 without catching their attention, and Cha-Cha catches their attention, they will prepare an attack. If Cha-Cha then digs underground to teleport to the Hunter, the Rhenoplos will turn and do a charge attack targeting one of the Lynians. It is unknown why it does this.
• Rhenoplos are extremely territorial, they will charge at any hunter they sense with persistence.
  • If a Rhenoplos charges into a wall, it will KO itself.
