Hunter's Handbook
π Relevant Posts Only
Keep it related to Monster Hunter. Plain and simple. If it's questionable, be ready to back it up.
π 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.
π 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.
π Safe-For-Work Only
SFW cosplay only: no nudes/lewds
No Rule 34: make your own MH34U

Way back in the day I had heard that Monster Hunter was the new hot game in Japan, and they had just released Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on PSP. At the time I couldn't make heads or tails of it, but I beat my head against it for a while. For some reason I stuck with the series almost out of sheer refusal to accept that I didn't grok it, but then Monster Hunter Rise came along. 700 hours later across two platforms and I'm more of a Monster Hunter fiend than I ever was.
I was lucky (cursed) to have a friend guide me through the MHFU clunk to ensure I didnβt quit from confusion. Both I and the series have come such a long way now but it still feels like a video game home. Glad you like Rise as well. Itβs what I dreamed of when I first became a pc gamer and yearned for a MH title.
