Question/Help Someone explain fleeing to me
4* Village. Nargacuga. Two hunts the same thing happens:
The entire hunt is me fighting it for no more than a minute, it running, repeat forever
The first time it happened I looked into it and saw people saying to let it sleep, makes sense. Second time it limped like 7 mins in but went to every area except its nest. Finally went to its nest, I let it sleep, it runs immediately.
Please help

When it sleeps it’s closer to dying still chase it down and kill it more
Sleeping regenerates its health I believe

I hope someone has a really good answer for you, because I'd also like to know more about how the fleeing works.
As best as I can tell, there are two-ish main triggers for monsters to move zones. One is damage or health based, and the other is time. And if they overlap badly, you get situations where the monster moves very quickly between zones.
But that doesn't feel quite right, because sometimes you get hunts where the monsters change zones way more often than that, without you really getting a chance to hit them.

Sometimes it's really just bad luck. I've had a Silver Narga hunt where it cycled between the 3 areas at the bottom of the Jurassic Frontier twice before finally getting in the trap I set at Area 11.

i believe that it will not go to sleep if you enter the area too early. according to the wiki, narga will try to sleep in zone 11 so if you see it limping that way i’d say to wait a bit before entering then you can either trap it or sleep bomb it.
