Monster Hunter World Chronicles

Panel Tutorial /112

#	Name	Description
0	The Smithy	You can use monster materials and ore to forge and upgrade equipment at the Smithy. Give the materials you earn as quest rewards or carve from monsters to the Smithy to create new equipment for taking on even tougher monsters.
1	The Botanical Research Center	The Botanical Research Center can take your plants, mushrooms, and insects and produce more of them for you. Visit the facility and select the item you wish to reproduce. The amount of time required to reproduce varies by item, and the facility will automatically continue growing more of them until you come to collect the results. The time required to produce items advances one unit for each quest you complete. Items will not be produced if your Harvest Box is full (check the baskets by the pond to see the harvest status).
2	Fertilizer, Facility Level, and the Harvest Box	Fertilizer You can use research points to increase the amount of items produced. Facility Level and Harvest Box Expansion As the facility level increases, you will be able to grow more types of items at once. Expanding your Harvest Box means that you can wait until more items are produced before coming to collect them. Unlocking fertilizers, raising your facility level, and expanding your Harvest Box all have their own requirements.
3	Quests	Quests involve objectives such as slaying monsters. To get started on a quest, first you have to accept it. Assignments: Complete these missions to advance the story. Optional Quests: These include favors for NPCs. More will become available as you meet the necessary requirements. You can take on optional quests as many times as you like. Investigations: These special quests are issued by the Resource Center and can only be taken a limited number of times. Events: Special quests exclusive to online play.
4	The Fourteen Hunter Weapons	Different weapons offer different combat experiences. Great swords hit with devastating force, while the sword & shield allow for quick, mobile flurries. The heavy bowgun, while unwieldy, fires powerful blasts, and so on. Choose any one weapon and take to the field! You can visit the Training Area after equipping a weapon by speaking to the Housekeeper in your room. There, you can practice with your chosen weapon as much as you'd like.
5	Armor: Your Five-Piece Protection	Armor sets are comprised of five pieces. Each piece offers some amount of defense plus equipment skills to aid you in your hunts. You can mix and match pieces however you like to suit your play style. Use / to view your gear's stats and skills. You can save equipment loadouts to quickly switch to your favorite gear combinations.

7	Get In Some Hunting Practice!	You can try out all 14 weapon types in the Training Area. Speak to the Housekeeper in your room to access the Training Area. Take as much time as you need to practice there until you're comfortable. Select Change Appearance from the item box in your house to change some aspects of how your character looks.
8	Prepare for the Hunt!	There are a range of facilities in Astera. While you're waiting for the download to complete, explore what's available and prepare for the hunt. Eating at the Canteen will give you a temporary boost on your next quest, and you'll find a range of useful goods for sale at the Provisions Stockpile.
9	Welcome to the Training Area!	Strike the various objects placed around the area to get a feel for your weapon's move set. If you'd like to try a different weapon, just head to the item box to switch equipment. All ammo and coating types are available to try out.

10	Invalid Message	Invalid Message
11	Quest Countdown	You're free to explore Astera until preparations for the quest are complete. Grab a meal at the Canteen, shore up your supplies at the Provisions Stockpile, get the latest gear from the Smithy and Armory, then adjust your equipment and organize your items at the item box. You'll be heading out into the field in no time!
12	The Quest Begins!	Take a look at the upper-left corner of the screen. When the quest is ready to begin, you'll see a notification there. Once you're prepared, press at any time to enter standby. You can go on standby by pressing at one of Astera's gates. From the Party Members' Status menu, selecting Standby for Departure will have your party depart on the quest as soon as all preparations are accounted for. If you are the leader of the party, pressing will let you depart first with other members who are on standby.
13	Things To Do Around Camp	Camp offers five basic amenities. Use them to prepare for the hunt. 1) Tent 2) Supply Box 3) Quest Counter 4) Your Palico 5) Canteen The camp Canteen offers the same meals that are available in Astera.
14	Check Your Gear!	1) The Tent The tent lets you swap out the items you're carrying and change your and your Palico's equipment. 2) The Supply Box The supply box contains useful items issued to hunters free of charge by the Resource Center. Don't hesitate to take them with you, but remember to share when playing with friends!
15	Quest Counter and Palico Settings	3) The Quest Counter Speak to the Handler during an expedition to take on new quests. This is particularly handy if you want to keep hunting with the same party in the same locale. 4) Your Palico Your Palico can be found in camp. Speak to them to choose whether to bring them with you on your hunt or have them wait until you return.
16	Fast Travel	Fast Travel When you're ready to return to camp, press to open the Wildlife Map, then select Camp to call a wingdrake to your current location for a free ride back. The wingdrakes can't approach while you're engaged in combat, so fast travel is unavailable until the fighting is finished.
17	The Canteen	Eating meals can boost stats such as health and stamina, and grant special food skills. Select the meal you wish to eat from the menu. The meal effects are shown in the center of the screen. Take a good look at each meal's effects to help you determine which one will provide the best benefits for your next hunt! Food skills have a probability of being activated. Use fresh ingredients to raise that probability. Note that meal effects are not saved.
18	Meals	Meal effects end when any of the following happen: – You complete a quest – You return from a quest or expedition – You faint during a quest or expedition You can eat again at camp a short time after eating a meal (about 10 minutes). Don't forget to eat again after fainting! Meal effects will carry over when starting a quest during an expedition, or when switching from an expedition in one locale to another.
19	Oven Roasting	Oven roasting cooks food over the time it takes to complete one quest. For example, if you oven roast some raw meat, once the quest is done you'll return to find a ration! Be sure to collect your cooked food on your way out to the next quest. Oven roasting requires research points.
20	Ecological Research	Ecological Research is a facility that studies monsters. Their studies can help you with your hunts and investigations. Gathering monster tracks and the like will earn you research points. Collect enough, and your research level will go up, giving you access to new features and intel that will make your hunts easier. You can also consult the monster field guide to view monster info, such as habitat, weaknesses, and materials that can be carved.
21	Research Levels	Research levels do not increase automatically. When you see "Report to the Ecological Research team" on the results screen, be sure to pay them a visit. In the research level menu item, you'll also find your scoutflies' level, which determines their abilities. The higher your scoutflies' level, the sooner your scoutflies will pick up the next set of monster tracks.
22	The Gathering Hub	The Celestial Pursuit is a Gathering Hub where up to 16 players can get together for a hunt. It contains the following: 1) Arena Counter/Quest Counter 2) Event Manager 3) Notice Board 4) Canteen/your room/Hub Provisions You can also engage fellow hunters in arm wrestling and other fun activities.

Once complete, you'll receive a reward based on your time and see how you stack up against hunters worldwide. Arena quests Standard arena quests. Challenge quests Arena quests that are available for a limited time only. Up to two players can participate in each multiplayer arena quest, which can be started from the Arena Counter. You cannot join arena quests that are already in progress. The leader can register your time on the world rankings.
25	The Special Arena	The Special Arena is decked out with cannons, ballistae, and even a falling boulder trap! Use this equipment to hunt your marks. Hunt a monster on a quest or expedition to unlock its Special Arena quest (some exceptions apply). The order of quests on the quest board is random.
26	Squads	Squads are invite-based in-game communities. Join a squad and you'll... – Gain access to a members-only Online Session – Get a squad icon and name above your character's name and on your Guild Card – Be able to leave messages for squad mates even if they're not online ...and more!

Only squad leaders have permission to invite and remove members from the squad.

29	Upgrading Weapons	First, select the weapon you want to upgrade to. You can use materials to upgrade to different weapons with a variety of improved stats. If you want more base weapons to enhance, you can create more by selecting Forge Equipment at the Smithy, or by purchasing them at the Armory. Upgraded weapons can also be downgraded. The materials used to upgrade the weapon will be returned to you.
30	The Wishlist	Select a weapon with the cursor and press to add it to your wishlist. Once you acquire all the necessary materials to create a wishlisted item, you'll receive a message. You can add weapons and armor to your wishlist from the Forge Equipment screen.
31	Upgrading Armor	Each piece of armor has a level. You can use armor spheres to gain points, which are used to raise your armor's level. The equipment's appearance won't change, but its defense will increase. There is a limit to the number of times a piece of armor can be leveled up. The number of points gained depends on the type of Armor Sphere used.
32	Forging Equipment	New weapons and armor can be created by selecting Forge Equipment. Most weapons, however, can't be created via Forge Equipment. Instead, you'll have to make a base weapon first, and then upgrade it into a more powerful weapon via Upgrade Equipment. All armor can be created via Forge Equipment.
33	Equipment Skills	Equipment skills are helpful skills that remain active as long as you have the piece of equipment equipped. Each armor piece has its own skills. Be sure to keep an eye on the skills when forging and upgrading your gear! If multiple pieces of gear share a skill, the skill's level will be the sum of each piece's skill level. Equip sets of gear with the same skills to power up those skills' effects.
34	Augmenting Equipment	After upgrading a weapon to the end of its upgrade tree, you can further tweak it by selecting Augmentations. Check the weapon status on the right side of the screen to see which augmentations have been made and how many augmentation slots remain. Augmentations cost money relative to the weapon's rarity, as well as materials, which differ according to the weapon and the augmentation type.
35	Types of Augmentation	When augmenting a weapon, there are five options to choose from: – Attack Increase – Affinity Increase – Defense Increase – Slot Upgrade – Health Regen Enhancements chosen multiple times will stack. Augmenting armor increases the number of times it can be upgraded. The armor can then be upgraded normally via Upgrade Equipment.
36	Decorations	Decorations are items with skills that can be added to equipment. Gear created or upgraded using materials earned from high rank quests (6 and above) and high rank expeditions will have up to three slots for decorations. Adding decorations to those slots allows you to imbue your gear with more powerful skills.
37	Decoration Levels	Decorations and equipment slots both have levels from 1 to 3. Decoration Levels Higher level decorations contain more powerful skills. Slot Levels Slots can be filled with decorations of the same level or lower. For example, a level 2 decoration cannot be added to a level 1 slot.
38	Charms	Charms are pieces of gear that can activate skills. Only one can be equipped at a time. Charms can be created by selecting Forge Equipment at the Smithy. Some can be powered up via Upgrade Equipment, strengthening the effects of the skill.
39	Multiplayer	In multiplayer, you can enjoy quests and expeditions in a team of up to four players formed from the maximum 16 players present in your Online Session. Players in the same Online Session can communicate via chat regardless of their locations. Many quests can be joined while in progress! Expeditions are unlocked as you progress through the game. Multiplayer is not available during story-related Expeditions.
40	Accepting a New Quest	When choosing a quest, select "Post a New Quest," then set the following options: 1) Players How many hunters you wish to join the quest. If you wish to play solo, set this number to 1. 2) Set Passcode Choose four numbers to restrict the quest to specific players.
41	Joining Quests	Select "Join a Quest" to participate in a quest or expedition initiated by another player. Doing so will send the quest leader a join request so they can approve you. Join requests are set to auto accept by default. To change this, select Quest Join Settings from options to set join requests to manual. Expeditions are not listed at the Quest Counter unless an SOS flare has been used. If no one in your Online Session is recruiting for the quest you want, you can select "Online Sessions" to move to a new session to try again.
42	Joining Quests in Progress	Many quests and expeditions can be joined while in progress. However, if you join a quest in progress after a set time has passed since it was begun, you will not receive credit for completing the quest, and you will not earn the quest rewards. Please keep this in mind when joining quests. You will still retain any items carved from monsters or gathered while on the quest. Rewards for breaking monster parts or capturing monsters will still be earned as long as the relevant conditions are met.
43	The Resource Center	The Resource Center oversees researcher requests and manages the resources required for their investigations. To do bounties you need to register beforehand, whereas delivery requests can be completed just by handing in items. When you unlock investigations during quests and expeditions, check in with the Resource Center to make them available as special quests. You can view Resource Center information at any time from the start menu under "Resource Center."
44	Bounties	Bounties are missions you complete over the course of your quests and expeditions. First, check the critical bounties. Then pick a registered bounty. You can take on multiple bounties at once. Most bounties will reward you with armor spheres and research points. Once you've completed the bounty, drop by the Resource Center to collect your reward.
45	Critical Bounties and Registered Bounties	Registered Bounties You can select up to six of these from the list to accept. The list is updated when you return from a quest or expedition, so check back frequently. Critical Bounties These bounties unlock new facilities or upgrade existing ones, and are accepted automatically. They can all be completed in parallel with your registered bounties and with one another.
46	Limited Bounties	Limited Bounties These quests are offered periodically to online users around the world, and are available for a limited time only. When the next limited bounty is released, it will overwrite the previous one. If you want to complete them all, be sure to keep an eye on the expiry date!
47	Turning in Delivery Requests	You can complete the delivery requests you accept from researchers by turning in the specified items at the Resource Center. Completing delivery requests will reward you with new ingredients for the Canteen or upgrade your facilities.
48	Investigations	Sometimes when collecting monster tracks or materials, breaking monster parts, or after slaying monsters, you may unlock a new investigation. Check in with the Resource Center to make these investigations available as special quests, which may have additional reward slots or ask you to slay multiple monsters. They also have a limit on how many times they can be taken. The investigation you get depends on the area you were exploring. Difficult investigations, such as multiple monster slayings, will offer better rewards in terms of both quality and quantity.
49	Registering Investigations	To undertake an investigation, you must first go to the list of available quests under Manage Investigations and register the one(s) you wish to undertake. You will then be able to accept it by going to the Quest Counter and selecting "Investigations." There is a limit to the number of investigations you can register, and to how many total investigations you can have. When you can't register any more investigations, press to remove some.
50	Tempered Monster Investigations	While out on high rank expeditions, you may find tracks or unlock investigations for Tempered Monsters: exceptionally powerful members of their species. While Tempered Monsters pose a terrible threat, defeating one will yield materials that can be used for augmenting. If you think you're up to the challenge, the rewards are well worth the risk. The chance of unlocking a Tempered Monster investigation increases as you collect Tempered Monster tracks.
51	Expeditions	You can depart on an expedition by selecting a destination from the World Map without first accepting a quest. Unlike quests, expeditions are very open-ended, and are great if you want to freely explore the world. Expeditions have the following special characteristics: – There is no time limit – You will not fail no matter how many times you faint – There are no completion conditions or rewards, but you will keep any materials you gather and points you earn – Monsters will depart the field after a set time elapses
52	Returning from Expeditions	You can decide when to return from an expedition. Once you're done exploring, return by doing one the following: 1) Speak to the Handler at camp. 2) Select "Return from Expedition" from the menu. 3) Select "Astera" from the World Map. When you return to camp after completing a quest, you will automatically switch to an expedition. If you then accept a new quest from your handler, it will take less time to prepare for that quest, provided that the new quest takes place in the same locale.
53	Capture Quests	Capture quests require you to: 1) Weaken the monster 2) Trap the monster 3) Use a tranquilizer to capture the monster alive Be sure to bring the traps and tranquilizer you'll need with you. You'll find them in your item box or the supply box. Traps: shock traps, pitfall traps, etc. Tranquilizers: tranq bombs, tranq ammo, etc. Traps and tranquilizers can be crafted, or bought from the Provisions Stockpile.
54	Weakening Monsters	You must significantly weaken a monster before you can capture it with tranquilizers. Once a monster's health is low enough for tranquilizers to be effective, it will begin to limp. That's your cue to stop attacking and ready your traps. Be careful not to deal too much more damage to the monster, as accidentally slaying the target will result in your failing a capture quest.
55	Traps	Limping monsters will attempt to flee to their nest in order to recover their health. Select a trap, such as a shock trap, from the item list and place it in the monster's path with . Once you've snared the weakened monster, you're nearly done capturing it! It can also be effective to place traps around the nest where the monster is sleeping. Wake the monster up and lure it into the traps you've set.
56	Tranquilizing the Target	Once you've successfully snared a monster in your trap, select a tranq bomb from the item list and press to throw it at your target so it hits the monster's face. Once the monster is asleep, you've captured it! You can also use tranq ammo when you're using a ranged weapon. Capturing a monster will also fulfill the completion requirements for "hunt" quests. While you'll be unable to carve items from your target, you'll gain different rewards from the quest results screen than if you'd slayed it.
57	Specialized Tools	Specialized tools refer to clothing and equipment that grants you useful unique skills. For example, using a Ghillie Mantle will temporarily prevent monsters from being able to see you.
58	Effect Duration and Cooldown Times	Specialized tools must be equipped and then used as items for their effects to be activated. They can be used an unlimited number of times, but have a cooldown time after each use. You can check the effects of any specialized tools you have equipped from Equipment Info in the menu.
59	The Tailraider Safari	You can dispatch Grimalkynes and other players' Palicoes on Tailraider Safaris. They'll venture into the field to gather items and materials and unlock investigations for you while you're out on quests or expeditions. It costs Research Points to dispatch a safari. The Palicoes that join your safari are recruited from hunters in your Squad, hunters whose Guild Cards you've received, and hunters who you've recently played with.
60	Dispatching the Tailraider Safari	Select a Safari Each team of three has its own characteristics. The higher their skill at gathering what you're after, the better their results will be. Select a Destination Choose the area to dispatch the safari to and you'll be presented with three routes. Use the item and monster icons shown to decide which route to choose. The number of s indicates the difficulty. A paw icon indicates that local Tailraiders at that location will lend a paw, increasing the safari's chances of success.
61	Collecting Rewards	Remember to Collect Your Rewards! Once you return from a quest or expedition, the safari will have completed one quest as well. Give them the order to return when you're ready to collect their rewards. Two Places Where You Can Manage Tailraider Safaris You can manage safaris at the Research Base and via your housekeeper. As you make progress, you will be able to choose from more teams to dispatch, and you will also get additional safari destinations to choose from.
62	The Elder Melder	At the Elder Melder, items can be converted into points, which can be used to create powerful consumables and bowgun ammunition. While conventional crafting requires specific ingredients, the Elder Melder offers a great degree of freedom. Items marked with a bonus marker will yield 1.5 times the normal amount of points. More features are available at the Elder Melder as you progress in the game.
63	Searching for ??? Rathian Tracks	Accept high rank expeditions and optional quests to gather ??? Rathian tracks and discover the true nature of this enigmatic monster. Collect enough ??? Rathian tracks and complete quests to obtain research points. Once you have enough points, report back to Ecological Research and select Special Investigations. A new assigned quest will then be issued.
64	High Rank Quests and Expeditions	Sightings of powerful monsters have been reported throughout the New World now more than ever before. Take on high rank quests and expeditions to investigate. High Rank Quests Quests with a rank of 6 or higher are considered "high rank." Quests with a red will feature very powerful monsters. High Rank Expeditions To depart on a high rank expedition, ensure High Rank is selected on the World Map. Discovering a monster during a high rank expedition or quest will unlock that monster's optional quest.
65	Making Even Better Gear!	Superior materials can be carved from the fearsome monsters found on high rank quests and expeditions. Once you've acquired some of these materials, pay a visit to the Smithy. There, you'll be able to use your hard-earned spoils to create new gear of exceptional quality.
66	The Argosy	The Argosy is a trade ship that comes into port at random times to sell item sets to the hunter population. The sets for sale change each time the ship docks. They often include rare items unavailable for purchase elsewhere, so they're well worth checking out. After arriving, the Argosy will stay in port for the time it takes you to complete three quests or expeditions. After departing, it will remain gone for four to six quests. You can use "Request Goods" to change the types of items that will be sold during the next visit.
67	Uncovering Nergigante's Secrets	Find Nergigante by gathering its tracks, which your scoutflies react to by turning blue, and by investigating all of the large monsters that dwell within the Elder's Recess by sighting them. Once that's done, accept high rank expeditions and optional quests around the world to gather Nergigante tracks and pinpoint its habitat. Once you've collected enough Nergigante research points, report back to Ecological Research and a new assignment will be issued. You can also get research points by completing high rank quests.
68	Investigate the Awoken Elder Dragons	Elder dragons around the New World are stirring. Investigate by undertaking high rank expeditions and quests, and gathering elder dragon tracks that your scoutflies respond to in blue. Once you've collected enough research points, report back to Ecological Research by selecting "Special Investigations." A new assigned quest will then be issued. You can get research points from completing high rank quests.
69	SOS Flares	Hunting monsters on your own can get tough. If you need a little help, send out a call to other hunters around the world. They can then join your quest and lend a hand. Open the menu screen, head to the Quest menu, and select "Fire SOS Flare." Your flare will then show up on other players' quest boards. SOS flares will reach players in other Online Sessions, too. During expeditions, firing an SOS flare is the only way to play multiplayer.
70	Accepting/Rejecting Players Joining Mid-Quest	When someone responds to your SOS flare, they'll automatically join your quest in progress. If you set the game to manually accept join requests, you will receive a system message asking for permission to join the quest. To accept a request, select join requests to see a list of requests, and pick the one that you want. There is no penalty for rejecting a join request.
71	Delivery Quests	Delivery quests require you to collect special items. Once gathered, these items are delivered automatically, and do not get added to your item pouch. As a result, there is no need to worry about running out of space, and no need to manually deliver them. Deliver the required number of items during the quest to complete it. Special items other than those specified by the quest are automatically converted into zenny.
72	Transport Quests	Transport quests require you to carry items that won't fit in your item pouch, such as monster eggs, back to camp. Once you've delivered the required number of items to the supply box in camp, the quest is complete.
73	Transporting	You cannot wield your weapon while transporting an item. If you fall over or get attacked, you will drop the item and need to transport it from the beginning again. Plan your route carefully! You can still sprint, scale ledges, and move along walls while transporting an item, but make sure you don't run out of stamina. You can drop the item you're transporting by pressing , but you won't be able to pick it up again.
74	Customizing Bowguns	Bowguns can be enhanced by adding mods. The number of mods that can be added varies depending on the rarity of the bowgun. Multiple mods with the same effect will stack, further enhancing that effect. Rarity 1-2: One mod Rarity 3-4: Two mods Rarity 5+: Three mods Use to scroll the center-right window and view the changes caused by the added mods.
75	Managing Kinsects	Insect glaives are used together with a Kinsect, and both can be enhanced independently. To get a new Kinsect, select "Purchase Kinsect." To enhance an existing Kinsect, select "Nurture a Kinsect." As you progress through the game, the menu option "Kinsect Elements" will be unlocked. There, you can trade a power level to add one of the following elements: fire, water, ice, thunder, or dragon. To equip a Kinsect, first equip the Insect Glaive you wish to pair it with, then select "Equipment Box" from the "Change Equipment" screen and choose a Kinsect.
76	The Map/Scoutflies	Your scoutflies can guide you to monsters, Grimalkynes, and gatherable items. Press to open the Wildlife Map. Use the cursor to select the target you wish to seek, then press to place a pin on it. Your scoutflies will take it from there. During expeditions, simply collecting monster tracks will not engage your scoutflies' guide feature. To do so, make use of map pins.
77	Lucky Vouchers	When Lucky Vouchers are used when posting a quest, you'll receive bonus rewards upon completing the quest. Be sure to use vouchers whenever you have the chance! - Random quest rewards are guaranteed to drop - Reward money doubles Note: Lucky Vouchers are obtained via login bonuses.

78	Zorah Magdaros Quest Availability	Zorah Magdaros's optional quest has been unlocked. This quest will randomly appear when you finish any quest, or return to Astera from an expedition. Once it appears, it'll stay on the optional quest list for a period of 2 quests, so don't let the opportunity pass you by! Hint: Pay close attention to the music and system messages. The odds of the quest appearing increases as your hunter rank increases.
79	Xeno'jiiva Quest Availability	Xeno'jiiva's optional quest has been unlocked. This quest will randomly appear when you finish any quest, or return to Astera from an expedition. Once it appears, it'll stay on the optional quest list for a period of 2 quests, so don't let the opportunity pass you by! Hint: Pay close attention to the music and system messages.

80	Deviljho Investigation	The World Eater, Deviljho has been spotted in the New World and it's threatening the local ecosystem! In every high rank locale, and 6 or 7 optional quests, you may find Deviljho tracks that will help in your investigation... or you may run into the beast itself! Once you've gathered enough research points, talk to the Jovial Scholar, who will issue a Special Assignment. Special Assignments can yield special rewards. Note: Deviljho can also appear in quests it is not listed in.
81	Special Assignments	Special Assignments are quests that are assigned to you that are not related to the Elder Crossing. To receive a Special Assignment, talk to anyone with a blue exclamation mark above their head.

The Kulve Taroth Siege is available only in the Celestial Pursuit for a limited time. Players can join the siege in progress, but SOS flares cannot be used.
83	How to Progress	All hunters in the Celestial Pursuit investigate one Kulve Taroth. It begins once someone initiates the Kulve Taroth Siege. The final objective is to completely break Kulve Taroth's giant horns, but to do so requires a thorough investigation. Collect tracks, destroy parts, and whittle down its health with other hunters using various methods to contribute to the investigation. By cooperating with other hunters, you raise your chances of completing your objective before Kulve Taroth retreats. The investigation is considered a success once Kulve Taroth's horns are destroyed.
84	Review Kulve Taroth Siege Progress	Check Kulve Taroth's info to see investigation progress. Pursuit Level: During an ongoing investigation, info about Kulve Taroth is displayed in levels, based on the results of everyone's contribution. The higher the level, the better your chances of completing your objective. Reward Level: The higher the reward level, the better the rewards. Complete research entries and you'll accumulate points that will raise your reward level. You can only receive a certain amount of points from other parties. If your party completes an already completed objective, the reward level will be overwritten.
85	Kulve Taroth Rewards	Once Kulve Taroth's giant horns are broken off, the investigation is considered complete. Once it's complete, head to the quest counter in the Celestial Pursuit to pick up any special rewards you may have earned. Please note that rewards vary depending on your reward level. Each gathering hub investigates their own Kulve Taroth. If you move to another gathering hub, your reward level will reset and you can obtain your rewards. You can investigate other Kulve Taroth during the available time period. Keep in mind that your special rewards will be available even after the Kulve Taroth Siege is no longer available.
86	Investigate the Teostra in the Wildspire Waste	Teostra has been spotted in the Wildspire Waste. Post or join the special assignment, The Blazing Sun to begin the investigation.

104	Team Together to Fight the Behemoth!	There are some special rules that are applied to the quests that feature the Behemoth. 1. Multiplayer is highly recommended, kupo! We recommend tackling this quest with a full group of four hunters. Try to find friends and meet up at the gathering hub. 2. Drawing enmity is a good thing, kupo! Enmity is when the monster has its sights set on you. Once the monster concentrates enmity on one player, you can seal certain powerful attacks, kupo! This is when your teammates should attack! But remember to support your teammates if they draw enmity, kupo!
105	Controlling Enmity is the Key, Kupo!	3. Raise enmity by attacking the head, kupo! Attacking the Behemoth's head repeatedly raises enmity. When a red line is displayed, that's when you've successfully drawn the Behemoth's gaze, kupo! Weapons with strong blocking capabilities raise enmity easier, but each weapon has their own unique characteristic. 4. Watch the Comet! By hiding in the shadow of the Comets that appears during the quest, you can avoid damage from the extremely powerful Ecliptic Meteor attack, kupo! This is vital to your success! But Comet can be destroyed by either hunter or the Behemoth. Try to position yourself in a place where it's easy to hide but Comet is hard to break, kupo!
106	Investigate Arch-tempered Kulve Taroth	The existence of an Arch-tempered Kulve Taroth has been confirmed! Investigate this menacing monster and draw out its true power. Obtain new Kulve Taroth weapons Due to the appearance of an Arch-tempered Kulve Taroth, siege objectives have been revised. By completing specific objectives, you'll have a chance at receiving new rainbow rewards that are more powerful than gold rewards! Some new siege objectives will be considered incomplete if you return from the siege and your pursuit level is at 1.
107	Investigate the Anomaly at the Research Base.	Something has happened at the Research Base. Head there at your earliest convenience. This is a special assignment unrelated to the Research Commission's main mission of solving the Elder Crossing. Speak to the Third Fleet member with a blue ! above her head to advance the special assignment. This special assignment has voice options for Japanese, English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish. Adjust the language to get the most authentic experience for this collaboration title!
108	Take on the Woodland Spirit with a Group of Hunters!	Another leshen has been sighted in the Ancient Forest. This one seems to be even more powerful than the last. Team up with other Hunters to take it down. If you're going to take on this leshen, the item and gesture Geralt of Rivia gave you will come in handy. We recommend you complete the special assignment, Contract: Trouble in the Ancient Forest before accepting this quest.
109	Find all Branches of this Special Assignment!	You can play the special assignment Contract: Trouble in the Ancient Forest, a collaboration with "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," as many times as you want. Step into Geralt of Rivia's shoes once more and try to find all of the side quests and endings. Complete all of the side quests in one playthrough and you'll be awarded the "Wild Hunt" title at the end.
110	Flame Manipulation	Your Hunter has learned Flame Manipulation. Either use the Hunter Runestone you received from Geralt of Rivia from your item pouch, or perform the The Witcher 3: Flame Manipulation gesture to spray fire at your enemies.
111	Upgrade Your Magic with the Geralt of Rivia Full Armor Set	Equip the Geralt of Rivia Full Armor Set to upgrade your magic with the Igni Intensity skill. The Hunter Runestone you received from Geralt will turn into an Igni Sign, granting a significant boost in magic power. Use it to your advantage! Similarly, the gesture you received will change to The Witcher 3: Igni Sign, and increase your magical prowess even more!
