The Tempered Kirin is a Threat Level Three Tempered Monster in Monster Hunter: World, appearing after completing the assignment and reaching Hunter Rank 50. Defeating it unlocks the ability to advance Hunter Rank up to 100 and challenges other Tempered Elder Dragons. These monsters are essential for obtaining Hero's Streamstones, which are used to augment Tier 8 weapons. Hero's Streamstones are rare drops (3% chance), with a 1/6 chance for any specific weapon type, making their effective drop rate around 0.5% per hunt.
