How to boost your Hunter Rank in Monster Hunter Now

Boosting your Hunter Rank is quite simple: all you need to do is stay on track with your quests and make sure you’re completing them. To view your in-progress quests, open up the game and tap the rectangle bar at the bottom of the screen. Here is a list of what you need to do.

The early quests are mostly about getting to know the different mechanics of the game, like building armor and weapons, how to battle certain monsters, all of that good stuff. As you progress, things change a little and the game does not hold your hand as much. The stronger you get, the more difficult are the monsters you face. After you finish your quests and face the ending monster, you get a bigger than usual point boost, which should get you to the next tier rank.

As a new player, the monsters you see on the map are pretty basic small guys, like the Jagras. When you make it to Hunter Rank 11, larger monsters unlock, giving you more options for challenging battles. At that point, chapter quests begin, as well as special quests, which are your daily challenges.

The hunt is on in Monster Hunter Now!

Keep trekking through the game, and you’ll get a seasoned Hunter Rank in no time. And if you’re looking for a new game to keep you busy while at the kids’ soccer practices, check out Monster Hunter Now!
