Another hidden thing like the omen flys, is the ants can rarely be seen carrying lootable monster parts if you watch them long enough.

[@RoosSkywalker]

Can confirm, that happened to me by accident yesterday. I saw a white glittering ant drop next the ants in the Wild Spire, picked it up and it turned into Barroth scales.

[@VisionoftheChief]

If only I knew Torch Pods were used to get rid of effluvium, thanks for that. Also, I never realized how deep this game is, so thanks for that too.

Fun fact: This just more emphasizes the connection between the Rotten Vale and Coral Highlands. If you make your way down the deepest layers of the Coral Highlands, you'll begin to notice the environment subtly change and look similar to the miasmac Rotten Vale.

[@atzlein]

YOU PREDICTED THE FUTURE, ASSHOLE

[@Banana-cc5rx]

inb4 zorah's carcass actually is the guiding lands

[@jinji_xo]

Just reposting what someone said that caught my eye. Zorah reminds me a lot of Godzilla now omg. "Zorah Magdaros knew something terrible was forming in the Everstream. It recognized the danger Xeno posed to the planet, and knew how the unborn being was stealing away life energy, slowly starving the New World. If Xeno had been allowed to continue to grow, it would have consumed all of the life energy from the planet, killing everything, than moved on. But just as an abundance of water can drown a person, who depend on it to live, Zorah was going to die in the Everstream with the resulting explosive reaction destroying Xeno Jiiva and saving the rest of the world. The new world would have been blasted to hell yes, but all that life energy would eventually balance out and everything would grow anew from the cataclysmic action of Xorah Magdaros. Nergigante was trying to protect Zorah so it could complete its task. But it failed. The fifth fleet turned Zorah away to die in the ocean which will give rise to a new continent, but then the responsibility of putting down the life stealing Xeno Jiiva fell to the hunters. With Xeno’s death the loss of life energy ceased, and the balance of the power of the new world needing to restore itself, resulted in a tempering of the life forms therein. Until they too die, and the circle of life and death is restored."

[@CrouchinCorner]

Zorah attacked Nergigante when he is on the back

[@kurenainatsume5802]

Well...i guess after all zora still a beast, same side or not they kind of clash again each other when they feel annoy

[@mars3580]

I can see all of these but the Nergigante bit, because it was proven that Nergi is the Elder Eater.

[@ShinachiHChan]

That's awesome! So I'm guessing that Zorah's death is going to be the reason the new continent IceBorne is created. This Lore! And I was wondering why Zorah walking on two legs, then swimming off into the sea felt so familiar. Godzilla!

[@mars3580]

ShinachiHChan uh he died my dude

[@dready8192]

This video is 1000 times better compared to the clickbait-y one from the Leaderboard. Im happy you put in actual, interesting facts in your video, instead of just mentioning what Event/Crossovers there are in the game.

[@KingNexusMOCs]

CuZ wE Da ReAl FaNz!

[@Skorge789]

The fifth didn't push Zorah away from the rotten vale. Zorah was unnaturally drawn to the elder recess and the everstream within. If he had made it there and died releasing his bioenergy there it would have destroyed the new world. Thats why the fifth pushed him into the sea.

[@Skorge789]

RainMakerXP I'm not denying that. I'm just pointing out that in the video the Terra says the reason he didn't die there is because the 5th pushed him away which just isn't true. Zorah skipped the Vale on his own and the 5th pushed him away from the elder recess after that.

[@Tactavious]

I always had my suspicions about the rotten vale. There were just way too many hints about the area itself being one large monster. Can't believe I forgot about the Dalamadur from 4U. Played the Christ out of that game.

[@masterroshi4750]

Tactavious mh4u is my favorite

[@gbishop1774]

There's another skull in the area too. Not as big and I don't know what it belongs to, but it's still pretty big. If you go down to the area with the bright blue acid stuff if you go to the part where it stretches out into what looks like a stream to the right there's another skull

[@howard5755]

GBishop17 I don't know the lore, but from what I've pieced together, either Dalamadur was pregnant or it ate something that killed it from the inside. Or something straight up tunneled into it's guts.

[@brandonliaw394]

Gbishop17 i think thats loa-shan-lung from MHFU

[@SpiritofBardock93]

Another you kinda missed for Dalamader, in the Odogoron's nest there are two blue spots of blue energy. If you get Oddie to attack and hit these spots, it will then be lit on fire with blue flames. Plus standing in this fire will take away health much faster than the acid does. These spots have also been theorized to be remnants of Dalamander's energy.

[@seijuro3144]

#1 -mindblown

[@javiervalenzuela8284]

Zorah was headed in the direction of the elder recess not the vale which was the problem, they were afraid if it died near the streams the energy would flow through out the entire island and destroy it. Sending zorah out to sea it's explained that it will likely create another ecosystem somewhere at sea.

[@shivanirobinson2856]

Javier Valenzuela possible foreshadowing for MHW 2?

[@snowmanleblanc6053]

@@shivanirobinson2856 i hope not, but hopefully it will be a new area

[@nugentj8]

Kiritsugu Emiya im guessing its gonna be the new iceborne dlc coming next year sm

[@JpegDog]

jon nugent Considering that Iceborne is a continuation of the main story, I wouldn't be surprised if that glacial freezing was caused by Zorah Magdaros dying (kinda like in Lost Planet)

[@atzlein]

Javier Valenzuela fuck you, you predicted the Grinding Lands for MHWIB

[@haloelite439]

Zorah was drawn toward the elder's recess unnaturally instead of going to the vale. Possibly, it was trying to prevent Xeno'jiiva from being born and throwing the entire planet into chaos.

[@greatestcrow2514]

Actually it was most likely attracted to xeno'jiiva trying to absorb its energy

[@haloelite439]

Adam Keane wait, you think Zorah or the other one was doing the absorbing?

[@greatestcrow2514]

I think xeno'jiiva was trying to absorb its energy obviously

[@haloelite439]

Adam Keane I think it's more likely that it sensed the danger posed by Xeno and was trying to kill it. I think this because it knew that it was about to die and knew the risk of going to the recess and dying and was still willing to do it.

[@Birbucifer]

TheMemester439 Even in the game it is stated that Xeno fed off of all the energy from previous elder crossings. Your theory is mind tickling at best, but it holds no water.

[@TheCaptain-ky1sx]

Fun fact too: There's at least THREE Dalamadur skulls IN the rotten vale, suggesting three adults died. Weird that they might have all died together.... Man, imagine if they died in the middle of a snake ball. A snake ball between dalamadur would be like the size of scotland XD (A snake ball is when loads of snakes get together with one female to breed and they resemble a mass of coils)

[@Bunny-zg4hd]

The Captain6006 Where are all these skulls?

[@TheCaptain-ky1sx]

One's in the top layer. Another is right by Vaal Hazak's sleeping area by the Dalamadur plasma pools and the third... Oh I forget.... I just remember seeing 3. Either way that's 2

[@alhassirakhdugani5813]

The Captain6006 OR what if it was a hydra version. A genetic defect cause the dalamadur to have the three heads!

[@TheCaptain-ky1sx]

Considering such a thing has never been confirmed I doubt it... no such thing in MH could produce such a thing. Not even the ancient civ. They make new life, not alter existing life

[@Bunny-zg4hd]

Al'Hassir Akh'Dugani Lmao this is Monster Hunter not Dark Souls

[@weebrahim]

[@akkir6707]

I don't care shit for their names tbh especially the quest girl. The only npc that's interesting is the huntsman.

[@timmcc6899]

Because I've only been playing the game while I stream, I've been coming up with my own names for them. I was originally calling the Handler Navi, because early on there was an expedition where she said, "hey!" all the time, but now I call her Jules, because she looks quite a bit like the actress, Juliette Lewis.

[@ashgidds]

This content is so damn good

[@Saelria]

The thing about the first tip with mining is that veterans should know about it. Radobaan is essentially the Uragaan just in a different area/climate. The first time I saw the Radobaan I went straight for its back to see if you could.

[@shaynethegmann]

Zorah magdaros was originally drawn off course by the everstream his death would've destroyed the entire island So it was more setting nature on track

[@TerraMantis]

It's true that Zora's stored energy in combination with the unnatural storage and creation of Xeno Jiiva would have created a surplus of energy (explosion) and destroyed the island. But, that doesn't remove the fact that the island is in need of a new Elder Dragon catalyst to bring about another cycle of life. One way or the other, Zora Magdaros was intended to rest at the foot of the Coral Highlands and is now redirected elsewhere by the player's actions.

[@shaynethegmann]

TerraMantis Iirc they only need the elder dragons life force to begin the cycle, after that nature takes its course and the ecosystem grows on its own Zorah was supposed to travel straight through the island and move onwards after But the power of xeno jiva pulled him towards the everstream which would have destroyed it all

[@TerraMantis]

The old lady from this video says otherwise. She states that Zorah was intended to be the next energy source to fuel life for the ecosystem. I'm only basing it off exactly what the game says.

[@shaynethegmann]

TerraMantis the old lady from your video? Cause she didn't specify And the first wyverian said zorah magdaros was being drawn in by the energy towards the everstream iirc I don't think the rotten vale attracts monsters and elder dragons from all over the globe to die, just monsters in this ecosystem

[@ethanr3480]

shaynethegmann she says that Zorah was at the vale but was pulled off course by something which I thought was maybe nergiganta but it could’ve been the final monster

I really enjoyed this video, whilst drinking a nice hot mug of coffee, you ordered the video so well. My favourite part was the transition to a different fact whilst showing hints of it in the previous fact. (the severed pig head)

[@TerraMantis]

Thank you. Cohesion, flow and structure of videos/scripts are important to me. I think it enhances engagement and I'm happy you noticed.

[@block4562]

The thing about the omen flies isn't exactly hidden, I'm pretty sure you can read about it in the field guide, or maybe even a loading screen tip... i know you can read it somewhere in game. That's my only nitpick tho good vid

[@KaladinVegapunk]

The creation myth is totally an homage to Ymir in Norse mythology, a giant. The father of Odin and his two brothers, they use his brains, skeleton and skin to make the worlds

[@TheSmallzfry]

And Dalamadur has to be a homage to Jormungandr, the world serpent.

You forgot the best and most valuable Poogie tip in my opinion that no one ever does a video on. If you take Poogie to the handler at base, right in front of her and you vibrate set him down; be precise or he will run off! This is an uncommon spawn for farming meal vouchers which are hard to get and very useful, it's not there every time but pops up a lot. Very very valuable.

[@casskoftw4373]

One thing not even you might know is that torch pod can be fired at Lavasioth when his armor is hard to soften it yet again without him plundering in the lava, or that the bright moss can be used to confuse monsters like a flash pod if thrown directly in the face.
