Just after reaching High Rank, there is a period during which players cannot freely travel to the Ruins of Wyvreria. Fortunately, players can return to the map, and fight a Guardian Rathalos, during that period simply by using the “His Eternal Reign” optional quest.

After initiating “His Eternal Reign,” and traveling to the Ruins of Wyveria, the player should simply mount theirSeikretand use itsauto-movefeature to be taken directly to the Guardian Rathalos. Indeed, the monster will automatically be marked with a waypoint at the beginning of the mission, making it very easy to find. Players must then slay the monster, and they may discover that they have received a Flame Sac as a Target Reward at the end of the hunt. If the player does not get the desired material, they should simply start a new instance of “His Eternal Reign” and try again.
