Hunter's Handbook

๐Ÿ“– Relevant Posts Only
Keep it related to Monster Hunter. Plain and simple. If it's questionable, be ready to back it up.


๐Ÿ“– 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.


๐Ÿ“– 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.


๐Ÿ“– Safe-For-Work Only
SFW cosplay only: no nudes/lewds
No Rule 34: make your own MH34U

I kinda get it. People equip one and see that the moveset is just poke, poke, poke. But I love being able to glue myself to the monster attacking relentlessly when other classes have to back off. The early game is always a rush to get guard and guard up gear haha. And now we've got the counter game, power guard, and high mounting potential. So good.

Sticking like no other with Shield Tackle. That was great for most of my MR playthrough. Moved to Guard Dash spam and insta-block later on for endgame, but it was fun as hell while it lasted.
