This guide is here to provide details on that source and help fans get their hands on Pale Bone inMonster Hunter Rise.
Monster Hunter Rise: Pale Bone Location
Players that are looking to obtain some Pale Bone should set their sights onKhezu, a large monster that is initially encountered inMonster Hunter Rise’s Frost Islands. While this monster can be found during expeditions, there are three Low Rank quests that specifically instruct fans to hunt it. Those quests are A Pale Shadow (2-Star Hub Quest), Faceless Foe (3-Star Village Quest), and BZZZZZ or ZZZZzzzz (5-Star Village Quest), and players are advised to initiate one before traveling to the Frost Islands.

Upon locating Khezu, players should focus onbreaking its head. Indeed, this is the best way to earn Pale Bone, as the material has a12%chance to drop when such a break occurs on Low Rank. For the uninitiated, a monster’s parts can be broken by striking them repeatedly, and sever, blunt, and projectileweapons inMonster Hunter Riseare all capable of shattering Khezu’s skull.
Players should also plan tocapture Khezurather than kill it at the end of their hunts. To perform this action, fans should attack the monster until it begins to limp, then trap it with a Shock or Pitfall Trap, and then hit it with a Tranq Bomb. While some players may be resistant to spending time gathering those items prior to their hunts, there is incentive to do so, as Khezu has a10%chance to award Pale Bone upon capture in Low Rank.
Finally,Monster Hunter Riseplayershave an8%chance of receiving a Pale Bone simply by completing one of the aforementioned quests in Low Rank. While fans that are in need of the material are better off not relying on thattarget rewardexclusively, it is notable nonetheless.
One last thing to mention is that it is possible to obtain Pale Bone from Khezu inMonster Hunter Rise’s High Rank, but the drop rates are not the same as they are in Low Rank. More specifically, there is a 16% chance of receiving Pale Bone when breaking Khezu’s head in High Rank and a 10% chance of earning it as a target reward. These percentages make Low Rank hunts a better option for farming the material, though only by a small margin.
Monster Hunter Riseis available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
