Scarred Yian Garuga are Variants of Yian Garuga first introduced in Monster Hunter Freedom[1]. Although Scarred Yian Garugas were introduced to the series prior to Yian Garuga individuals with uninjured faces, some games in the series, such as Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, treat them as Variants of Yian Garugas without scars, while other games, such as Monster Hunter Freedom feature them as the standard Yian Garuga individual.

 Physiology[]

In terms of appearance, Scarred Yian Garuga is virtually identical to Yian Garuga. The main difference between the two is that one of this monster's ears is missing and Scarred Yian Garuga received a scar across its face. It also can only be found in a tempered state in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne.

Behavior and Abilities[]

In terms of behavior, Scarred Yian Garuga is just as aggressive as Yian Garuga. The two monsters have virtually the same moves, but in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, Scarred Yian Garuga can execute more consecutive air attacks than Yian Garuga, as well as unleash a barrage of small fire balls whilst airborne.

Notes[]

  • Due to Scarred Yian Garuga being introduced in Monster Hunter Freedom, and Yian Garuga being introduced in Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, Scarred Yian Garuga is the only Variant in the Monster Hunter series to be introduced before prior to its standard version.
  • Despite being a Variants of Yian Garuga, Scarred Yian Garuga does not have its own armor set in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne. However, some of its materials are needed to complete the standard Yian Garuga set.
  • Scarred Yian Garuga's fireball barrage counts as multiple hits, thus attempting to I-frame them or absorb the damage with the Rocksteady Mantle is considerably more risky if not outright impractical.
