Hunter's Handbook
๐ Relevant Posts Only
Keep it related to Monster Hunter. Plain and simple. If it's questionable, be ready to back it up.
๐ 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.
๐ 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.

I inherited my addiction from a coworker/friend. I was recruited to help him pass a wall he could not solo through in MHFU: the infamous Plesioth hipcheck barrier. He set me up with an LBG, probably the most straight forward weapon for a non-hunter gamer to grasp. From there, things just spiraled as I lost control of my life. Through fortunate timing, Tri was only months from release when I started my MHFU journey, so I developed my habit right as a steady supply of the primo ish was starting to come out, and I haven't wanted to or been able to shake the habit since.
Omg that long range hip check on Plesi was such a pain. And then he'd decide to hang out in the water for an hour while while you're waiting all anxious for that water jet sweep. Good times.
