Title Update 4 New Monsters
Gogmazios
Gogmazios will be first available to hunt in the extra mission Ghosts Pay No Heed To Tomorrow. Hunter Rank 100 is required to access this quest.
Gogmazios is weak against Dragon element and has a unique interaction with Fire weapons, where its body can be softened with fire attacks, making it easier to land hits and exposes its Dragon weakness.
Arch-Tempered Jin Dahaad
Arch-Tempered Jin Dahaad is now available as of December 23, 2025 (ET). Like the previous AT Nu Udra, AT Jin Dahaad will require Hunter Rank 100 to be accessible and unlocks a gamma armor set.
