Moving On to High Rank

Option One: Complete ★1 to ★3 Hub Quests

Option Two: Complete License Quests 1-3

The other method involves clearing Special License Tests that are unlocked starting in ★4 Village Quests. These will increase your HR instead by pitting you against 3 Large Monsters in a single hunt. Clear these quests and the next level of Hub Quests will unlock, leading up to ★4 Hub Quests, aka High Rank. Whichever you choose, the real challenge begins then.

How to Unlock High Rank

Gathering Hub Quests

After completing ★5 Village Quests the Gathering Hub will become the primary source of hunts and story progression. If you've completed all Special License Tests, you can immediately jump into the ★4 Urgent Quest to unlock High Rank Quests.

Getting Started With the Story

Clear Key Quests to Progress the Story Prioritize Uncovering an Area's Map Increase the Argosy's Stock Always Accept Optional Subquests

Clear Key Quests to Progress the Story

Once you've cleared a certain amount of select quests known as Key Quests, you will unlock an Urgent Quest that opens up the next level of quests upon completion, each one progressing the story of Kamura Village's battle against the constant monster rampages. If you ever find yourself wondering what to do next, head on over to Hinoa to keep moving forward!

Prioritize Uncovering an Area's Map

When you first enter a map, it will be completely covered in fog, preventing you from seeing the full landscape or the location of materials, Endemic Life, and more. Before heading out on a quest, go on an Expedition Tour and explore the area so you don't waste any time when trying to hunt a monster.

Unlock the Sub-Camps

While you start at the Main Camp, there are actually Sub-Camps that can be found in each area. Once you've discovered one, you will receive a Request that will unlock it for fast travel upon completion. With more camps to jump between from the start you'll have an easier time hunting monsters going forward!

Camp Guide: How to Unlock Sub-Camps

Increase the Argosy's Stock

At the beginning of the game you'll be lacking materials so there's a high chance you'll run out of the few items you have fairly quickly. To help out with this, head to the Argosy in the Buddy Plaza where you can increase the number of items for sale so you don't have to spend as much time farming. You'll be needing a lot of Honey or Red Mushrooms so stocking up on those is highly recommended. The Argosy is unlocked once you unlock ★2 Village Quests.

Keep in mind, when utilzing the Argosy you'll need to send at least one of your buddies away, so be sure to recruit one from Iori you can send off without worry.

Always Accept Optional Subquests

Optional Subquests are basic requests that can be accepted from either Quest Counter. You can accept up to 5 at a time to receive various small rewards upon completion. The rewards are typically Kamura Points, Armor Spheres (necessary for upgrading your armor), and other useful materials so make sure to have 5 on you at all times!

Best Starting Equipment

Choose the Weapon You Prefer

Which weapon you decide on really comes down to your own preference. Especially in the beginning where you won't see a major difference based on your weapon, it's best to go with what you like or what you're already used to from past Monster Hunter entries. However, there are quite a few to choose from, so for those who are still unsure take a look at the articles linked below for our thoughts!

Best Beginner Weapons

Weapon Tier List

Use the Black Belt S Armor Set and Defender Weapon Tree

Be sure to check out the Add-on Content from Senri the Mailman – the new Black Belt S Armor set has been made available for free to help players reach Master Rank and start Sunbreak content. This set has High Rank-level defenses and reliable skills like Attack Boost and Earplugs to help you blast through Low Rank and work your way to Master Rank without having to spend time farming early and midgame weapons and armor.

The first of each weapon in the Defender Tree are also available for free, with higher damage than any other weapons of their level and laughably cheap upgrade costs.
