Acquiring Frenzy Shards in Monster Hunter Wilds

Frenzy Shards drop exclusively from Frenzied monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

These virus-infected creatures begin appearing during High Rank missions. While they may resemble their normal versions, Frenzied monsters deliver significantly increased damage and exhibit heightened aggression, presenting a genuine threat.

Upon defeating or capturing a Frenzied monster, you'll earn Frenzy Shards - essential materials for crafting powerful new weapons and armor.

Obtaining Frenzy Crystals in Monster Hunter Wilds

Frenzy Crystals serve as another crucial crafting resource, obtainable solely from Gore Magala. Successfully wounding and breaking specific parts on Gore Magala yields a chance for these rare crystals.

The Gore Magala hunt becomes available after progressing sufficiently into High Rank quests, specifically through the optional Misty Depths assignment.
