# Elite Monster

## 🎯 Elite monsters and Mount fashions

Normal-map **Elite monsters** have **\[Elite] Mount Box** in their configured reward pool. Examples include **Elite · Bark**, **Elite · Alva**, and **Elite · Giant Carl** in Lorencia, and other elites on later maps.

1. Open the map and look for the named **Elite** monsters.
2. Farm the elite that matches your target reward.
3. Collect **\[Elite] Mount Box** and check its preview.
4. Open the fashion box to work on your collection.

**\[MEGA] Elite Boss** is a different target in **Crystal Mine**. See [\[MEGA\]Elite Boss](/rufianmuv7/rufian-mu-guides/boss-invasions/mega-elite-boss.md) for that reward box.

**Mount fashion** and **Mount grade** are separate progression systems. Read [Mounts](/rufianmuv7/rufian-mu-guides/mounts.md) for grade upgrades. Event bonuses can change respawn rates.

**An easy way to find their location is to open the map and search for monsters**
