Monster Hunter Wilds’ Zoh Shia is so tough, even veteran players are struggling

BBG News

After the release of Monster Hunter Wilds, numerous players, particularly long-standing enthusiasts, expressed feelings that the game was excessively simple, as battles seemed to lack difficulty. However, Title Update 1 drastically changed this perspective, introducing a demanding High-Rank Zoh Shia confrontation that’s proving to be a challenging experience for both newbies and seasoned players.

Zoh Shia, the formidable final boss in MH Wilds, left quite an impression with its one-hit kills that still haunt my dreams. Even if you found it relatively easy, you’ll likely want to reconsider after trying Title Update 1’s new High Rank quests. Now, Zoh Shia is even more fierce, aggressive, and equipped with a fresh batch of cunning combos, transforming the encounter into a riskier battle than ever before.

Essentially, Zoh Shia continuously assaults, providing little opportunity for counterattack. After only a day since Title Update 1 was launched, it became widely recognized as one of the most challenging bosses yet. Upon entering the MH Wilds Reddit forum, I found the main page filled with discussions about its extreme difficulty, with crxss9797’s post, “What on earth was that,” being the most popular.

In a different post, Reddit user xXD4rkm3chXx discusses the Zoh Shia battle, stating, “Many thought wilds was too simple. As someone experienced in these battles, I concur but also knew they would eventually become tough. And that’s exactly what happened.” This Reddit user also shares a helpful hint: It’s advisable to attempt the Zoh Shia fight alone before using any SOS signals. Given the struggles of numerous players, cooperative tactics can prove difficult due to frequent respawning (being knocked out), which may prevent everyone from receiving mission compensation. While it’s challenging to take on solo, it offers a chance to practice before joining forces. Once everyone is more familiar with the battle, the chances of success will increase significantly.

To experience the Zoh Shia battle from Title Update 1, it’s accessible for all players who have reached Hunter Rank 50. You can find this mission as a quest or Investigation in the Ruins of Wyveria. By triumphing in this fight, you will be rewarded with the stylish Zoh Shia High-Rank armor set.

In the future, it’s highly likely that we’ll encounter even tougher missions similar to this one, given the potential return of underwater battles and Lagiacris looming on the horizon. As the danger escalates, Monster Hunter Wilds will test our abilities beyond what we thought possible. For now though, we must tackle Zoh Shia.
