MHW: Quest & Monster Tier Guide

The post MHW: Quest & Monster Tier Guide appeared first on Fextralife.

The world of Monster Hunter World can make newcomers feel lost with different quests and monsters. There’s always questions that new players may have about how several aspects of the game work. In this MHW: Quest & Monster Tier Guide we will go over quest rank, hunter rank, monster threat and more.

MHW: Quest & Monster Tier Guide

Q: What is the best way to hunt a monster? Expeditions or Quests?

A: Hunters should progress their main story (called Assignments) until they unlock the monster they are looking to hunt. As you progress the main story, optional quests become available, and hunters will likely want to complete them in order to unlock the Rainbow Pigment. Alternatively, you can experiment with Investigations, which are focused hunts that have clear targets and often a much more limited time period, but bonus rewards.

Expeditions are an option but only if you wish to capture wildlife, fish, gather as well as hunt monsters. Monsters in expeditions can leave the locale if players take too long so its not wise to hunt in expeditions early in the game. Also investigations rewards players with items like monster parts so they can greatly speed up making that new armor set you must have.

Q: How do I know if I am high rank?/ Which quests are low rank compared to high rank?

A: Hunters should be on the lookout after they repel Zorah Magdaros and have to head to Wildspire Waste to find a Pink Rathian. This quest will mark the beginning of high rank. In addition, players should look to the stars colors on quests.

  • Blue = Low Rank (1 Star to 5 Star)
  • Orange = High Rank (6 Star to 9 Star)


Q: Does monsters scale to your power or are they fixed? What is the the difference between a regular, tempered, and arch tempered monster?

A: Monsters don’t match your power, they remain static and fixed. Instead, monsters are divided into tiers:

  • Low Rank (blue stars) = Normal monsters
  • High Rank (orange stars) =  Normal Monsters
  • Tempered monsters (purple outline) = Same as high rank monsters but deal more damage
  • Arch Tempered Monsters (orange outline) = Only applies to Elder Dragons. They have new moves, more health, higher stagger thresholds and deal more damage. Some are even more resistant to stuns and flashpods.

Q: How do you encounter them [the different tiers monsters]? What quests are they in?

A: As stated earlier players can find normal monsters in their proper rank. Players start in low rank and have access to low rank expeditions and investigations. Once they reach high rank they have access to high rank expeditions and investigations. Remember to collect monster tracks to quickly add investigations.

To find tempered monsters players must

  1. Defeat Nergigante as this unlocks wild monsters potential to be tempered.
    1. Alternatively players can complete the Land of Convergence quest involving Xeno’jiiva
  2. Find tracks in the wilds to obtain tempered tracks. They are colored purple compared to normal green.
  3. Once hunters undertake a tempered monster quest, they should collect tracks, break monster parts and then capture or kill the tempered monster. This will start the cycle of getting more tempered quests.
    1. Alternatively hunters can undertake the Monster Track Event quests if they are live

The number of bonus slots are predetermined and range from 2 to 5. The more difficult the conditions of the quests the higher reward color the slots/boxes will be.
