Hunter's Handbook
๐ Relevant Posts Only
Keep it related to Monster Hunter. Plain and simple. If it's questionable, be ready to back it up.
๐ Respect Your Fellow Hunters
Greenhorns or oldhats, we all start somewhere in the series. Everyone is welcome.
No racism, bigotry, flaming, trolling, or any other behavior unbecoming of a guild hunter. We're here to play and discuss Monster Hunter with like-minded folks, act like it.
No "game shaming": This isn't a place for title vs title arguments. Take that to steam forums or elsewhere. Compare/contrast mechanics between games, discuss what worked or didn't and how. Devolving into flame wars of "MHX sucks, gib more MHY" will not be tolerated.
No "off-meta" shaming: having fun playing the game is the meta. Discuss strats, builds, and give suggestions, but that's all they are, suggestions.
๐ Original Art Only
No AI art: too easy to spam, too low effort.
Attribute original artists with links, watermarks, and mentions where available. If you don't know the source, say so.
If an internet sleuth finds a poster cribbing others' art as their own, that's a bannable offense.

Got into MH with MH4U. Completely lucked into it. Had gotten myself a 3DS primarily intending to do small indie games and retro games, but happened on MH4U and thought that sure I might give a bigger tripple A style game for the 3DS, just to see how something that scale of a game would be on a handheld... And I got HOOKED. Then as I expressed my surprise at this to local friends, and praising the game, a couple of others got it as well and we started hunting together, both online but even better in local mode, which exposed the game to some others that didn't even have 3DSes and got them interested enough to buy both device and game!
Since then I've been stuck, playing MH4U, Generations (and ultimate), World, Rise and a bit of Stories 2.
Favourites are MH4U and World.
Edit: Lance main, Hammer secondary... But have used most weapons at least a bit.
Wow, you spread like a virus. Excellent MH evangelism. Certainly helps to have "lucked into" what many considered the GOAT in 4U. Welcome hunter, keep spreading the good word.
Definitely! World hooked another couple of friends since the barrier of entry was lessened with it being on PC.
Fingers crossed for many more excellent MH games in the future!
