How to Get Fertile Mud in Monster Hunter Rise

To get Fertile Mud in Monster Hunter Rise, you need to fight the monster known as Barroth. Barroth is a giant, lumpen tyrannosaurus-creature found in the Sandy Plains that uses mud and dirt to fight. There’s three ways to get it from the Barroth, none of which have very good odds, and you’ll likely have to try these multiple times before you get any.

• As a dropped material
• By Wyvern riding it into a wall or other monster
• When a Gathering Palico uses the Pilfer move on it
• By completing any target quest on the Barroth
