Overcome Frenzy with Antivirus Effect

1.1 to 1.3 Times Easier to Overcome

In Monster Hunter Wilds, Antivirus makes it 1.1 to 1.3 times easier to overcome Frenzy. The accumulation rate required for overcoming increases to 1.1x at Lv1, 1.2x at Lv2, and 1.3x at Lv3.

Accumulation Value Varies by Attack

The accumulation rate needed to overcome Frenzy depends on the attack move. Since it is determined by the type of attack rather than damage dealt, increasing attack will not affect it.

Number of Attacks Needed to Overcome Frenzy

NoneLv1Lv2Lv3
Long Sword (Thrust)34 Times31 Times28 Times26 Times
Great Sword (Overhead Slash)8 Times7 Times7 Times6 Times
Great Sword (Kick)120 Times110 Times100 Times93 Times

Antivirus Effect Duration

Cured State Lasts for 60 Seconds

Antivirus increases Affinity when the 'Frenzy: Cured' state is activated. The 'Frenzy: Cured' state lasts for 60 seconds, so the affinity boost from Antivirus also lasts for 60 seconds.
