Horned Tyrant, Diablos (Assigned Quest)
The 'Horned Tyrant, Diablos' assigned quest requires you to hunt a Diablos. This quest is a direct hunt of the monster. After completing the quest, you will return to Astera where you can take your loot to the Smithy to begin forging weapons and armor. If you cannot craft a full set, you can undertake additional quests from the investigation team or proceed to your next assigned quest.
Unlocking quests, including this one, can be achieved through various activities:
- Finding a monster (low, high, or master rank all count separately).
- Capturing monsters (low, high, or master rank all count separately).
- Talking to Villagers with a '!' in Astera, Research Base, or Seliana.
- Completing previous Optional quests.
- Encountering randomly available Rare encounters that last for 2 quests and disappear.
- Fully researching monsters (all tabs in the monster manual).
- Hunting a certain number of different tempered monsters (quests/investigations with more than one tempered target only register the first listed).
- Advancing your current progress level for Assigned Quests.
