How to Get Guardian Scale

Open and Destroy Low Rank Monster Wounds

Target Monsters
Guardian Ebony OdogaronGuardian Ebony Odogaron Guardian RathalosGuardian Rathalos

Guardian Scale has an 8% chance to drop when destroying the wounds of a Low Rank Guardian Ebony Odogaron and Guardian Rathalos. Players must inflict and destroy as many wounds as they fight these monsters to maximize item gain during and after the target quest. It is recommended to take an optional quest where one of the monsters listed above is the target monster, so the players can get Guardian Scale during the hunt and possibly as a quest reward.

Additionally, players should note that they can only obtain Guardian Scale from Low Rank versions of these monsters.
