One of the many quests you can embark upon is the Espinas Entanglement, a side quest that will be provided by an NPC in Elgado, and will award you with a new armor set for your hunter to wear in battle. Here's everything you need to know about it.

Espinas Entanglement Side Quest

Once you do your initial steps in Master Rank and properly progress through the main story of Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak, an NPC called Phino The Sailor will give you this side quest. You can find him working hard in the piers of the Elgado base.

To complete this quest you must head into a mission and capture a Master Rank Espinas. Given this monster's natural weakness to Ice and Blast Damage, it is recommended that you employ a Slashing weapon that can inflict any of those two ailments. You can go and confront Espinas either in solo mode, online multiplayer, or even through a Follower Quest accompanied by other NPCs. However, no matter what you do it must be specifically captured in a Master Rank mission.

After you accomplish your objective you must go back to Phino in Elgado, he will reward you, and the Side Quest will be completed.
