Full Story Walkthrough and Guide

Defeat the Chatacabra

A battle against a Chatacabra occurs at the end of Chapter 1-1. Chatacabra's attacks have a short range and can easily be avoided. Be wary of some long range attacks, such as the arm slams, and stand your ground.

Mission Rewards

Defeat the Quematrice

A battle against a Quematrice occurs at the end of Chapter 1-2. Note that if you are hit by its Flaming tail attack, you will be afflicted with Fireblight and take continuous damage. Remove Fireblight with consecutive Evades/Rolls until it goes away.

Mission Rewards

Defeat the Lala Barina

Entering the Scarlet Forest initiates a fight against a Lala Barina. When angered, its torso opens like a rose and it dramatically increases scattering cotton with paralyzing effects. Remove Paralysis by rapidly rotating the L-stick until it is removed.

Defeat the Congalala

A battle against a Congalala occurs at the end of Chapter 1-3. This monster's signature attacks are its Fart and Breath attacks. Getting hit will inflict Stench on the Hunter and prevent them from using items. This status effect goes away on its own, but it can be instantly removed with Deodorant.

Mission Rewards

Defeat the Balahara

A battle against a Balahara will occur in the Oasis. If Balahara burrows into the sand, you can force it to the surface with a Screamer Pod. Doing so will also temporarily daze the Balahara, allowing Hunters to attack it freely.

Defeat an Alpha Doshaguma

A Battle against the Alpha Doshaguma occurs at the end of Chapter 1-4. It is easiest to deal damage to a Doshaguma's hind legs, and focusing on this part of the monster allows you to inflict wounds, which can create even more attack openings when hit with Focus Strikes.

Mission Rewards

Defeath the Uth Duna

A battle against Uth Duna occurs at the end of Chapter 1-5. Uth Duna receives less damage (indicated by blue damage numbers) when attacking its water veil. Continue attack the water veil until it breaks which increases your damage while also supressing the waterflow generated by Uth Duna's attacks.

Mission Rewards

Defeat the Rompopolo

A battle against Rompopolo occurs at the end of Chapter 2-1. Rompopolo fights using poisonous attacks and wild tail swings. It does not move very fast, but it uses tricky moves like explosive attacks that detonate with different timings.

Defeat the Rey Dau

A battle against Rey Dau occurs at the end of Chapter 2-2. Rey Dau's attacks inflict Thunderblight which makes the Hunter more susceptible to the Stun status effect. Do your best to avoid its attacks or consume a Nulberry to cure Thunderblight.

Defeat the Nerscylla

A battle against a Nerscylla occurs in the middle of Chapter 2-3. Nerscylla is an agile monster that weaves around the battlefield. While fighting her, it is easier to wait for openings between her attacks instead of attacking blindly during her attack animations.

Defeat the Hirabami

Chapter 2-3 culminates in a face-off against Hirabami. Hirabami employes an Ice Breath attack that restrains Hunters. While restrained, Hirabami will move in to deliver a follow-up attack. Break free from the ice before Hirabami attacks you.

Defeat the Ajarakan

A battle against Ajarakan occurs in Chapter 2-4. Whenever Ajarakan becomes red-hot, he imbues his attacks with fire. Continuously damaging Ajarakan while it is in this state causes it to fall over and revert back to its usual form, so fight carefully but aggressively.

Defeat the Nu Udra

At the end of Chapter 2-4, the Hunter will face off against The Black Flame Nu Udra. Focus on severing its tentacles one by one to reduce its attack range and make the fight much easier instead of attacking each tentacle evenly.

Defeat the Guardian Doshaguma

After speaking to Rosso in Windward Plains, you will automatically be moved to the Ruins of Wyveria. Following Nata will result in an encounter with the Guardian Doshaguma. Use weapons with Fire, Ice, Thunder, and Dragon to deal the most damage.

Defeat the Guardian Rathalos

After defeating the Guardian Doshaguma, speaking to Nata will trigger another battle against the Guardian Rathalos. Guardian Rathalos is weak against Thunder and Dragon, so make sure to have those weapons prepared for this fight.

Defeat the Guardian Arkveld

Once the Guardian Rathalos is defeated, speak to Tashin to encounter the last hunt of Chapter 3-1, Guardian Arkveld. Guardian Arkveld is only weak against Dragon element, so prepare a weapon, or prepare for a longer fight.

Defeat the Jin Dahaad

As you make your trek towards Suja, you will encounter the Jin Dahaad. Jin Dahaad's only weakness is Fire, but the Hunter can access a Camp before challenging it, so make sure to equip the correct weapon! Defeating Jin Dahaad concludes Chapter 3-2.

Defeat the Guardian Ebony Odogaron

After talking to Tashin, head to the campsite to continue the investigation that leads to a fight against a subspecies of Odogaron, the Guardian Ebony Odogaron. This monster is susceptible to the Water element, and defeating it will lead to a fight against Xu Wu.

Defeat the Xu Wu

Shortly after defeating Guardian Ebony Odogaron, a battle against Xu Wu will occur. Since these are consecutive fights, we recommend return to Camp and restocking on items, as well as swapping out your weapon to one with the Ice element to defeat Xu Wu and clear Chapter 3-3.

Hunt Guardian Arkveld

After speaking with Nata, head to the lower levels of the Dragon Shrine for round 2 against Guardian Arkveld, who is weak against Dragon element. Defeating Guardian Arkveld here will clear Chapter 3-4 and unlock HR7.

Defeat the Zo Shia

Speaking to Nata will eventually lead to a battle against Zo Shia. Zo Shia is weak against the Dragon element, so craft the right gear before challenging this monster to complete chapter 3-5 and unlock HR8.

Capture a Yian Kut-Ku

Chapter 4-1 ends with a capture mission for Yian Kut-Ku. Once the monster is weakened, use the provided shock trap and tranquilizers to capture it.

Defeat a Frenzied Nerscylla

In chapter 4-2, the story will only progress once you've reached HR15. At that point, you will have to speak to Fabius in the Ruins of Wyveria. Doing so will initiate a fight against a Frenzied Nerscylla. Monsters classified under Frenzied have lower starting HP, but deal boosted damage, so be careful when fighting them.

Dual Monster Hunt

At the end of chapter 4-3, the Hunter will face off against a Tempered Lala Barina and a Guardian Fulgur Anjanath at the same time. As a Tempered monster, Lala Barina will have significantly increased HP and attack, so be especially careful while hunting it.
