rauthelegendary said:I've been farming Ludroth for hours now. According to the MH wiki R. Ludroth has 26% of dropping spongy hides per carve. The quest reward has a 30% chance of giving you a spongy hide. If you break his Mane, there are two 37% chances of getting a spongy hide and after killing him about 7 times now, I still have not a SINGLE spongy hide... Last time I farmed the armor online and it only took about 3 runs.
drops depends on what quest you're taking on. i'm not entirely sure if its the same with tri yet but the other installments, for certain drops you had to do the later quests. the earlier quests for a certain monsters, you wouldn't get some drops.
i'll probably update this guide properly for the first few stars if people want it?
