You can’t really exploit this to gain more items, but it’s a great help to not have to worry about restocking any time you want to restart a mission. By abandoning the quest, you guarantee that any consumables you may have used during the course of the expedition are returned to your inventory. If you find yourself on a hunt or quest that you’re having great difficulty with and need to take a break, or if you just need to return to base to resupply, ALWAYS be sure to abandon the quest from the Pause menu instead of returning through the travel system. However, it’s often a lot more beneficial to you - especially early on - to buy items from each set piecemeal, then create a functional hodge-podge of armor that will offer you a wide variety of protections, or more useful stacked skills

Once you’ve downed a few beasties and collected some cash and supplies, you might be tempted to purchase a full set of cool new armor. So unless you’re all by yourself - or don’t mind being a huge jerk - don’t look all the items for yourself. It’s important to keep in mind that when you’re playing with others, this gear is shared. You can craft certain slinger ammo types, like dung or flash pods, but other ammo like scatternuts will have to be collected. Slinger can only use items that you acquire while out in the world, and picking up another ammo type will usually drop what you’ve currently got equipped. You can also re-read any of the tutorials you've seen so far, and there' a bunch of great tips for both new and veteran hunters as well.īet you think that arm-mounted crossbow thing is pretty cool huh? Wanna use some of that explosive ammo you’ve got in your item box in it? Well, too bad - that ammo is just for guns. These offer a bunch of valuable intel on the wildlife that inhabits the New World, plus a list of active and available bounties and investigations.


They never really direct you there, but there’s a wealth of helpful information hidden in the pause menu, including your Hunters Notes.

Use this to your advantage when getting around maps and surprising monsters. Another fun thing in the Monster Hunter universe is that everyone’s legs are apparently invincible, since you can fall from any height and take zero damage.
