General Notes

• Stonefist Hermitaur was voted 198th place in the Hunters' Choice for Top Monster during Monster Hunter's 20th Anniversary.

Monster Hunter Generations

Stonefist Hermitaur has an improved water blast attack that covers a wider area.

Stonefist Hermitaur can do a series of quick, short lunges where it tries to skewer the hunter with its Monoblos horn.

Stonefist Hermitaur has a deadly two-hit combo where the horn on its back will glow and swipe at the hunters in front of it, causing stun. It will then proceed to do a giant slam on the affected hunters, dealing massive damage.

Weapons will bounce off its big pincer. Shots will reflect, hitting the attacker and flinching them but doing no damage.

• Tripping it will however make this pincer vulnerable, letting off steam making it soft enough to damage.

Much like the regular Daimyo Hermitaur, its shielding stance can be broken with a sonic bomb.

• Occasionally, Stonefist Hermitaur will peek at its surroundings when guarding. During this, the Sonic Bombs will have no effect.

Its legs are now breakable.

• Breaking its legs doesn't give any extra reward after completing a quest.

When not enraged, Stonefist Hermitaur can dig out of Pitfall Traps.

Stonefist Hermitaur may fall down for an extended period of time and drop a shiny if its face is staggered.

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate

G-Rank Stonefist Hermitaur can perform an outwards sweep with its big pincer.
