With Wyvern Riding, you're not only mounting a monster, but you can also control its movements for a short while, including attacks.Īiming the light or strong attacks can be a little tricky, as movement and aim can feel a little cumbersome. Wyvern Riding is a new mechanic in Monster Hunter Rise that replaces the mounting mechanism from previous games. It's important to note when you have blue damage, though, because, after a certain threshold, the monster will go into the Wyvern Riding state.

If you have a high amount of Affinity (critical hit chance), then critical hits have a star attached to the number. White is regular damage, orange tells you that you're hitting a monster's weak point, and blue is 'mounting' damage from jumping attacks or Wirebug Silkbind attacks. Gray represents the damage done on 'hard' parts of the monster that cause your weapon to bounce. While hunting, you may have noticed the damage numbers showing up in a few different colors: gray, white, orange, and blue. However, since World, damage numbers have become a thing and have made a comeback in Monster Hunter Rise. In previous games before Monster Hunter World, you didn't even get damage numbers. It sucks when even Monster Hunter of all brands sees games shut down especially when the series is stronger than it has ever been ever since Monster Hunter World released back in 2018 and with the recently released Monster Hunter Rise.Monster Hunter Rise Pukei Pukei Battle (Image credit: iMore) I still hope Capcom brings back Monster Hunter Freedom Unite because the iOS version was the only way to play it on a modern device officially.

It looks like the only Monster Hunter experience that will be playable on mobile for the foreseeable future is Monster Hunter Stories which is also available on Apple Arcade.
