While superior weapons and gear are important, controlling the battle's flow is paramount. Mounting offers significant tactical advantages. Success depends on timing, damage output, the monster's mount resistance, and your weapon choice. Mounting is also effective for both defeating and capturing monsters.

Mounting Strategies

High Cliffs or Ledges

If the environment allows, use high cliffs to your advantage. Quickly climb to a vantage point above the monster. Time your leap onto the monster as it approaches, utilizing knife and weapon attacks while mounted to maintain control.

Seikret Dismount Attack

Ideal for ranged weapons like the Bow, this involves dismounting your Seikret near the monster. Perform an aerial slash attack as you dismount, creating an opportunity to mount immediately afterward.

Aerial Weapon Attacks

Best for melee weapons, especially the Insect Glaive. Continuous aerial attacks are key to mounting; this method often integrates seamlessly into your existing combat flow.
