Deadliest Catch!

Hey over here! Phew, thank the spirits for arriving so swiftly! My name is Matilda of the Thundering Rapids Fishery; you might recognize me from the fishing competition during the Union Games!

Getting down to business, I came to Murkwood to do some fly fishing. I was originally fishing in the Southmarsh, but there were too many lorfolk fishing there. So I decided to fish near the Corrupted Spring. I know I was asking for trouble, but you should have seen some of the fish I caught! Oh yeah, sorry. I was fishing near the Corrupted Spring, and I suddenly got a strong pull. Being a master fisherwolf, I braced myself, and with a powerful pull, I yanked the marvelous catch to the surface. To my surprise it was a consumed monster!

I threw my net at it and fled to the Entagnled Swamp Den as fast as I could. The locals and I have raised a collection of moonstone shards for all that are willing to help defeat the monster!

Monster Bounties:

These are very difficult. You DO NOT know what synergies to target. And there are often other requirements, such as a pebble buy-in, wolf level, time-limit, etc. The reward is often Moonstones.

Requirements!

88

Cost: 10,000 Pebbles!
Location: Murkwood!
Duration: Available till 6/1/26
Reward: Moonstone Shards!
Secret Reward: 50ms!

1. Your goal is to discover the Monster's Synergies by initially submitting wolves and companions with a broad range of synergies.
   
2. Be sure to review the results of other wolves' hunts before yours to know what wolf and companion combo to try.
   
3. After submitting your wolf and companion, prove their hunting prowess by PM'ing me the Bounty's Cost! Once I receive it, I will post the results of your hunt as soon as I can.
   
4. Fear not if your hunt returns empty! You can submit a new hunting party once a day after rollover, at no additional cost! But do be sure to come back and try again, as this bounty is only available for a short time!

• Battling in a bog is no easy affair. Perhaps a lorwolf with a powerful frame and strong enough to pull themselves free from grasping vines and sticky mud would excel here.
  
• Thrashers are Dueler, Primal, Tactician. Consumed creatures lose a part of themselves when they surrender to Chaos. Take advantage of this! Though which part, you will have to determine...
  
• Consumed Thrashers are a very aggressive and elusive foe. Perhaps you should bring a tricky companion that can match its energy and deliver critical damage before it retreats.

• Monsters have a "Weakness" which is a set of 6 pre-selected synergies!
  
• To get an idea of what its weakness is, you should listen to Ashe's Warrior Advice.
• The first person to successfully submit a wolf and companion combo that has the 6 pre-selected synergies will be declared the Heroic Hunter!

Okay, I’m 99% sure I have what we need here, but I can’t swap companions around right now. Can I share a wolf and a companion that’s not theirs IF I link to the wolf whose companion it actually is?

Kepler stole one of her friends' companions to jump into the fray first!

@MystiTheWolf Kepler and their Moonlit Vulpactia follow Matilda's directions and travel to the Corrupted Spring. The Murkwood bog was thick and overgrown, but Kepler had no issue trudging through the undergrowth. Guided by the luminescence of their Vulpactia companion, Kepler arrived at Matilda's fishing spot. Starting with the signs of a scuffle in the mud, Kepler investigated the area thoroughly and noticed what looked to be the remnants of a net on the bank. Kepler slowly pawed up to the net, but his instincts kicked in and he leapt back! A black mass covered in a net and cattails burst forth from the water in a storm of tooth and nails. Ready for a fight, Kepler immediately pounced and delivered a mighty blow!

Granite and Blood (yes very creative, I know) doggy-paddle through the murky waters, with Blood riding on Granite, and Granite struggling heavily under the weight. He would've brought along a Furmus instead, but the Guides' Furmuses(?) were all busy playing with the guests. He might leave and then come back with one in tow though.

aAaAAAaAAa-
2 Primal, 2 Dueler, 1 Tactician, 1 Assailant.

@Renoisie Granite and Blood, their teufel, doggy-paddle through the murky waters. Occasionally, Blood rides on Granite while he struggles heavily under his companion's weight. Despite being so heavily encumbered by his companion, Granite perseveres and makes it to Matilda's fishing spot. As soon as they arrive, they see Kepler strike the monster before being hurled away into the underbrush. Blood, the Teufel, charges forward, but they lose their footing in the mud and are swatted away by the monster. Granite charges in and buries his teeth deep into the nape of the monster. The two struggle as Granite holds tightly on, but Granite too is soon hurled into the water.

Muscling her way through the swamp, Nyra and her Vulkira come to assist! They bring 3 primal, 1 rogue, and 2 tactician!

@Aurelia Nyra and her Vulkira muscle their way through the swamp. They are able to easily break through the bog underbrush and make it to Matilda's fishing spot. Seeing that other fellow direwolves have beaten her to her prey, Nyra roars and leaps into combat. She bashes down the monster's defences, giving an opening for her Vulkira to slip in and unleash a deadly attack!
