Capcom has 1,000.05.00 for the latest update forOne of the most profitable farm methods of the community removed from the game. The so-called night flower pollen exploit, which made players possible to generate mass gold tickets, is history.

The flood of night flower pollen is stopped

Actually, night flower pollen should only grow under strictly defined conditions - during a full moon night in the seasons, fullness and east time, hidden in the wind level and the carmine forest.

But clever hunters quickly found a gap in the system: Due to the repeated start of a certain side mission, which ushered in exactly the right season every time, the moon phase could be manipulated. The rare flowers blossomed as desired - and thus also the possibility of farming golden tickets.

This trick was particularly powerful because the tickets can be converted directly into powerful weapon decorations - a luxury that usually has to be bought with hours of grinding.

But with the new patch it is over.Capcom has removed the exploit, and if you want to get night flower pollen, you have to get involved with the regular gameplay: Strategically build camps near the spawn points and look patiently into the sky until the full moon finally opens.

Other important changes in the update 1,000.05.00

  • Gravios' stunlock weakness fixed: So far, the armored dragon was a surprisingly easy goal: even after the destruction of his fractions, it was endlessly staggered. So is over now.
  • Loadout-Bugs behoben:Saving equipment sets has so far been risky: decorations disappeared, bow adjustments have been reset and kinsect lost their rarity. That was finally fixed and your builds are now safe.
  • Multiplayer stability improved (with restrictions): The quest list now shows all available orders correctly, before that it was a maximum of 20. However, sending SOS not signals remains problematic immediately after the quest start, as it can continue to lead to network errors. Recommendation: Wait 10–15 seconds before you call for help.

Some bugs were fixed, but many still stay in the game. A particularly annoying mistake affects your Palico companions, whose blunt weapons currently do not cause anesthetic or exhaustion damage, which significantly weakens their usefulness in combat. In addition, there are certain side missions that simply cannot be completed under certain conditions.
