Facing Nerscylla in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a daunting task for many, especially those who aren't fans of spiders. This giant arachnid not only fuels nightmares but is also a prime target for high-affinity weapons. Let's dive into how to effectively take down this formidable foe.

How to Beat Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

Nerscylla's weaknesses include Fire and Thunder (especially when its mantle is broken), while it resists Sleep and is immune to Sonic Bombs. This spiky, agile spider uses its web abilities to stick you in place, poison you with its bite, and induce sleep with its rear stinger. It's a master of status effect damage, so ensure you're equipped with antidotes for sleep and poison to stay in the fight.

When it comes to Nerscylla's attacks, you need to be vigilant. The first type to watch out for is its bite or pincer attack. You'll see Nerscylla rear back slightly, exposing two orange fangs, before charging forward to snap them shut. This attack inflicts poison and deals significant damage. To evade, quickly move behind it or simply run away.

The other dangerous category is its web attacks. Nerscylla can shoot web directly at you or in a spread pattern of three shots. Getting hit will immobilize you, so dodge to avoid these. Additionally, be prepared for its rapid horizontal web charge, which you can block or sidestep, and its Spider-Man-like vertical web swing, which can be dodged with lateral movement.

How to Capture Nerscylla in Monster Hunter Wilds

Capturing Nerscylla requires careful preparation. Bring along a Pitfall Trap, a Shock Trap, and Tranq Bombs. While you only need one type of trap and two Tranq Bombs, it's wise to come overprepared given the unpredictable nature of *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Engage Nerscylla in combat and weaken it until it's nearly defeated. Signs of its weakness include limping, comments from NPC teammates about its state, and a small skull icon appearing next to its marker on the mini-map. Once Nerscylla is sufficiently weakened, set a trap, lure it in, and then throw two Tranq Bombs to successfully capture this fearsome spider.
