Rathalos's Plate

Uh, it's kinda like that stout horn topic, but for me I've been constantly capturing Rathalos (about 15 times so far), yet no plate.

I did the math (my math class helped) and found that if i broke the head, carved the tail, and got 1 shiny drop (don't wanna expect too much), I had roughly a 13% chance of getting one per run. I still haven't.

Rawr I hate probability :evil:

Now do the math for running mating season, assuming you got 5 quest rewards average per run, plus the capture/break/carves as normal.

U are talking about los+ right? I thought it was 12% chance just for every tail carve. I need 3 more plates for my rath+ frame, so I feel your pain, but I got my 2 plates just out of 5 runs yesterday, I also got a ruby. Their is a quick farm tactic; trap, cut tail, carve, no plate= abandon, plate= finnish via sub.

Yeah, los plates are a pain, but youl get there

I talked to chacha today and he was holding a rathian plate, wut r the odds? lol

desire sensor :P

Remember mating season and death of sky and sea if you have HR restrictions to run red hot party or the event is not in cycle.

Ya, Red Hot was just in the last cycle, with jhen... so I missed it D:!

I've never had a problem with Los plates, I don't know why. it's always Rathian plates that bug me. Both my pure offline noobies have tons of Los plates...

Uh, yeah, I still need to repel Ceadeus, sorry, and I'm at low HR.

Oh, so your not talking about los+? In that case, good luck getting plates... because your gonna need alot more then luck xP!

Yeah, I know, it's why I gave up on fearsome maw...

for now.


Cuz I'm not lucky XD

Oh yeah, when I was doin The Omen again, there was a Rathian there, stalking the Los. Sooooo annoying... but I'll have to live with it.

Or stick to the Wrath of Rathalos quest (horribly corny name, btw)

well... a plate will come to you eventually. I had to farm los almost 5 days before I got my plate for normal los set... but it's always worth it... just the feeling of getting something you worked so hard for is worth it.

repel the ceadeus then do the 6* urgents.


Both ian+los and los+lagi have los plates as quest rewards. Which makes them 4-5x as common.

the trick is to cut his tail
when carving the tail ,, you have 4 percent chance to get a plate

if ya play online it will go faster and when uv got high rank, uv 12 percent of carving the tail and get a plate

another trick: get food skills that let u carve twice,, the chance for a plate doubles

just keep slaying los,, and u will get one


i ever got 3 in one quest



i wish u luck xp

lol atleast you didnt need to get 5 plates like me for my gun it felt like forever but i finally got it (i couldnt cut tails)

I'm doing all offline quests before I start online. I was just wondering if the stuff I gathered offline can carry over to online to give people, because I have 1 or 2 extra Rathalos plates that I don't need, along with other items.

Yeah everything you get offline is taken with you to online besides the furniture in your house. Also you can't give Rathalos plates>_>

Your going to need those eventually once you get to high rank
