Monster Hunter: World - PC
Easy "Angling For A Bite" achievement:
--------------------------------------
You will automatically have a fishing rod in your inventory after you
complete the prologue (when you reach Astera for the first time and get
your weapons). Go on an expedition (for example, in the Ancient Forest),
and find a small lake or go to the ocean. Select the fishing rod and aim
it at the water. As soon as a fish bites (food starts moving), immediately
reel in the fish. An easy fishing spot is on the Ancient Forest map,
Southwest Camp (1). Just a little east of the camp you can see a pool
of water on the map.
Secret Horizon: Zero Dawn costume:
----------------------------------
For a limited time, you can unlock a special Horizon: Zero Dawn costume for your
Palico. It turns them into a Watcher robot from Horizon: Zero Dawn, including
the Watcher grinder melee weapon. To get it, progress through the game until you
reach HR 6 or higher, and select the "Lessons Of The Wild" special event. This
arena fight requires you to fight eight flying Barons, which is not too hard.
You will be rewarded with a watcher lense. To get the full Watcher body armor
and Watcher grinder, you need to complete the event three times to get three
watcher lenses.
Easy money:
-----------
Progress in the story until you unlock the "Prickly Predicament" three star
optinal quest. Talk to the Chief Botanist in the Botanical Research section to
get the quest. Complete it by collecting 20 Cactuses, then return to him to
unlock the ability to cultivate and grow Might Seeds. The Might Seeds are
extremely valuable and can be sold for 140 zenny. Simply place a might seed in
the cultivation slot and let it multiply while you are out doing quests. After
you return from quests, grab the might seeds and sell them at the shop. To speed
the farming process up, unlock the second cultivating slot to grow twice as much.
To unlock the second cultivating slot, complete the "Persistent Pests" four
star optional quest.
Wear the Bandit Mantle for monsters to drop rare trade-in items when attacked.
To get the Bandit Mantle, complete the "Redefining The Power Couple" five star
quest. Trade-in items are essentially junk items that are only useful for selling.
They cannot be used to craft or upgrade -- so you do not have to worry about
selling useful monster parts. To activate the Bandit Mantle, string attacks until
the mantle begins to glow. Once activated, the effect will last a set amount of
time, causing items to drop from the monster. Whenever you are doing quests, you
can earn trade-in items with it. The higher level the monster, the more valuable
the trade-in items. Everyone in your team can also use the Bandit Mantle,
multiplying your earnings. Go back and fight weak monsters from earlier quests
using your high-level gear, and you can get 10,000+ zenny in a few minutes. If
all allies are wearing Bandit Mantles, you can get more than 30,000+ zenny in a
few minutes.
Easy Armor Spheres:
-------------------
Armor Spheres are increasingly important near the end of the game. Armor Sphere
allow you to upgrade your body armor parts, and you need a lot of them if you want
to max out your complete set. However, if you stock up on spheres early in the
game, you can have a good amount to upgrade your favorite armor set towards the
end. Use the following method to get lots of Armor Spheres. Go to the Resource
Center in Astera and register bounties. These range from collecting plants to
slaying monsters. The easiest way by far is to collect items like flora, honey,
mushrooms, bonepiles, or mining ore. All these items can easily be tracked on the
world map and completed while you are doing quests. To complete them, return to
the Resource Center in Astera and turn them in for one armor sphere each. If you
make it a habit to do bounties before activities and turning them in after, you
can get 4+ spheres after every 1-2 quest.
Legiana monster location:
-------------------------
Legiana is a monster that can be found in Coral Highlands during the "Embodiment
Of Elegance" hunting quest. Before you can hunt Legiana, you have to first find
him, which can be difficult. The Coral Highlands is probably the most difficult
land to navigate in the game. It is filled with platforms and vertical gameplay
that can make it easy to get lost. Travel north in Coral Highlands until you reach
the wide open area in Zone 8. Straight ahead (north) is a large wall you can climb.
This is the place where you can expect to start seeing footprints and signs of
Legiana. If you cannot see him in this area, follow the way and climb up towards
Zone 13 to eventually encounter Legiana.
Unlocking Ropelift:
-------------------
To unlock the "Ropelift" fast transportation tool, you need to reach Coral Highlands
and visit the Research Center. Check in with the Airship Engineer on the top floor.
He will give you a delivery request for five Shamon Hides and one Sturdy Bone. You
will also have to give 1,000 research points. Both of these delivery items can be
found in the Coral Highland, and you can quickly get the Ropelift transportation.
For the Shamon Hides, check the moving enemy dots on the map and hunt five Shamons.
Sturdy Bones can be found in different bone piles around the Coral Highlands. Once
you have all materials and research points, go to Astera and complete the delivery
quest at the resource center to unlock the Ropelift station in Coral Highlands.
They make it a lot easier to travel around and move up and down the levels.
Unlocking extra meal recipes:
-----------------------------
Whether you are at the Canteen in home base or are sitting by your camp in the field,
both kitchens are identical. Every meal has set specific ingredients types with a
small chance of success for the following buffs. You can greatly increase the chances
of obtaining these buffs by using fresh ingredients. You can further increase the
potency of the buffs through procuring new ingredient options. Whenever you are at
home base, go to the kitchen. The chef often has an "!" over his head, indicating he
has something important to say. Usually he will give you optional quests such as The
Pain from Gains and Exterminator Of The Waste. The Meowscular Chef can only be found
at the main kitchen -- so make sure you check from time to time. Get the quests and
complete them to get new meal recipes.
Easy powerful end-game armor:
-----------------------------
Successfully complete the "A Colossal Task" assignment to reach Hunter Rank 11 and
unlock the High Rank quests, putting you into the end-game. You can now farm Zorah
Magdaros for powerful armor. Every Zorah Magdaros quest will drop monster materials,
but the final "A Colossal Task" assignment provides the most. The "A Colossal Task"
quest will randomly appear on your quest board. There is a chance it will appear at
any time after returning from a quest and resetting the board, but it is quite rare.
However, SOS Flares allow you to get around this limitation. Use the online SOS system
to quickly and easily farm this mission. Additionally, use a daily voucher to increase
your rare loot drops. You can earn double the materials if you are lucky.
Use the following steps to easily farm powerful end-game armor:
1. Join/start an online session.
2. Go to the "Quest Counter" and "Join a Quest".
3. Select "Respond to SOS" and set the target to Zorah Magdaros.
4. Search and make sure "Quest Type" is "No Preference".
5. Go to the "Opti
