Carving Hornetaurs

I need the monster fluids from the hornetaurs to complete the Kut-Ku set. Problem is that their bodies are so fragile that they break apart whenever I kill them making them uncarvable. Apparently, poison is the only way to kill them without completely destorying their bodies but Cactus Creamer is the only poison weapon I can make. Can I use that for carving the hornetaurs or is it too powerful?

way too strong. id suggest doing any hornetaur hunting quests you have unlocked. they give you poison gas in the blue box which can grant a few carves

and its WAY easier to get mf as a reward from ~

get a gun/bow that can take poison shots/coating. poison them and wait for them to die. A good bow might be ians bow. Scatter (for bow) would make it easier too.

Do a hornetaur quest or I think even a vespoid quest and bring toadstool and bomb materials with you. Have 10 poison bombs in your inventory. Basically walk around and poison them then wait while they die. If your defence is high enough you can just sit there and watch them try to harm you (yes, I'm lazy at times)

Whoops... It seems I've gotting the Kut-Ku armor and Khazu armor mixed up some how so I've been striving for the wrong armor lol. Oh well. Thanks for the info anyway guys. btw, I know this is off topic but the rest of the Kut-Ku armor (the helmet and leggings) are missing in the shop. Did I forgot to do something?

don't worry about being off topic in your own thread :P it's ok to keep asking questions in here, keeps a ton of threads (topics) from being made

as for the helmet and legs, you just need more materials. i dont mean more as in 5 rather than 2, more as in more kinds. probably some of the rarer materials, like kut ku ears (very possibly kut ku ears)

try whacking its head til its ears look like swiss cheese, then you could get them in the end rewards

just remembered, giant beak is important too. idk how to get it easily, just a rare item. capturing rather than killing it will make it more likely for one to show up in rewards

1. Get a bow with poison coating
2. Melee said hornetaurs
3. Wait till they die
4. ?????
5. PROFIT!!!!!!!

Like the guy above said, you haven't obtained one of the materials yet (and yeah, most likely they're Kut-Ku Ears). From experience, I think the armor part won't show up if you don't have at least one of the 1st material required. I could be wrong though.

Alright... I've been fighting Kut-Ku for a while now. Smashing its head with my hammer as I was told and capturing instead of killing but no ears. I did come across one ear but it was from the Blue Kut-Ku. Which took forever to kill compered to its pink counter-part. Not to mention stronger as well. Should I fight that thing instead?

Go with normal kut ku armor if you're having that much problem in the game. Its quite useful its attack up and health increase

for kut kut ears i just attack its head till its dead i usually get at least one i do so... :D
