Hunter's Handbook

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


πŸ“– 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.


πŸ“– 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.


πŸ“– 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 didn’t 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. It’s what I dreamed of when I first became a pc gamer and yearned for a MH title.
