There are also quests featuring multiple NPCs and seeing these characters interact with each other is part of the unique appeal of Follower Quests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of these NPCs is Fugen, a strong, reliable leader and the Village Elder of Kamura Village. Going on a Follower Quest with such a capable character might sound great on paper\u2026 Until you experience the threat he also poses to players that is. That\u2019s because Fugen is very eager to place endemic life toads on the battlefield.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15934\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-001-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>These endemic life toads are small lifeforms that made their first appearance in <em>Monster Hunter: World<\/em>. There are four different kinds that can be placed on the ground, and when attacked, they spew out a type of gas for a fixed period of time. Monsters that come in contact with the gas will be inflicted with different status effects like paralysis or sleep. These gasses are also effective against hunters, so if you accidentally find yourself in your own gas, you\u2019ll be left stuck and open for an attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fugen loves to drop these toads all over the place when hunting. So much so that players have been saying they wish he would stop (<a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/articles\/newsjp\/20220802-212759\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">related article in Japanese<\/a>). Now, with the free Title Update 2, these traps are being modified so that they don\u2019t hit the player and Twitter users in Japan are <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%E3%83%95%E3%82%B2%E3%83%B3&amp;src=typed_query\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">happy to hear it<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As somewhat of an aside, there is a solid reason within the game as to why Fugen uses these toads. In the explanation text when selecting a Follower Quest with Fugen, it notes that he received a large number of these toads from Gokoku. Gokoku acts as the guild manager in Kamura Village. He\u2019s an old friend of Fugen\u2019s and the two used to hunt together. Because of their friendship, maybe Gokoku gave Fugen a bunch of toads when he made his hunting comeback.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15933\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20220928-220863-002-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The free Title Update 2 release will include a number of other adjustments as well, including the first step in their two-part process to fix a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.monsterhunter.com\/rise-sunbreak\/en-us\/topics\/notice\/220916.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">crashing issue<\/a> in the Nintendo Switch version for file sizes that have grown too large.
