    Will you be playing MH Rise on PS5 / Xbox? If so, will it be your first time or have you played Rise before?
  • Most crucial tip I know that wasn’t mentioned: Use a gathering palico for first half or more of game, it’s better to use two gather cats an just have evade extender which extends your swinging animations too making you faster than dogs at lvl 3. Gathering cats can plunder off any monster as well as gather herbs,ore,etc they’ve gotten me many extremely rare monster parts. Moves like Go,fight,win Power drum, Shock purrision, Endemic life support, Are to be sought after when hiring a gathering palico

    "Sniff Out" (whilst requiring you bring a Palamute...) is much more useful for tracking what's available on the map in real-time, because it covers all item categories, and places blue and yellow pins over the locations of gathering points and hunting helpers, respectively. This gives you an indication of where to find something you're looking for, as well as a timer on when that item has respawned, because the pins are hidden once it's been collected.

    The map settings at 10:35 are really important imo - having the zoomed-in minimap showing me where wirebugs and other useful endemic life are can make a lot of hunts a lot easier
  • My dude , just the 1st tip already changes the game so much . I love you because of this ( as a Great Sword user i thank you ) you deserve more subs .
  • Damn got me good, 2 things i did not notice with the first two camera tips, so subscribe is done. Keep up your good work
  • @angcil88
    Whoah it's been years since the last time I watch your videos on MHW, you are speaking much much better now buddy, good on ya! keep it up!
  • @taesaes701
    Really great tips for beginners and others that don’t delve into the settings. I knew all of these because like you I have over 1000 hours in rise and SB, and I also spent a ton of time configuring things. The most annoying option Is the camera distance… why is the closest the default setting!?
  • @Evil-Olive
    Will definitely try the camera zoom option to see how it feels. Nice suggestions!
  • @StillWeRide
    Just started rise on ps5 and pulling the camera back already has helped immensely. So glad I saw this video before I got too far in!
  • Actually helpful tips. I've been playing MH for a long time but only recently started MHR/SB and even as a MH veteran like me, these tips especially those in the settings are still extremely useful and most of them I didn't even know or even think can be changed.
  • @grimreefer213
    Another big tip that was not mentioned in this video, I would highly recommend switching your action bar and your item bar! It feels cumbersome having to hold L1 while you’re cycling through your item bar in the midst of combat. Change your item bar so it works how it did in world, by just using the d-pad, and your action bar you’ll have to hold L1 to use. You’re going to be using your action bar a lot less often than your item bar, do yourself a favor and change the settings.

    Thanks for this video. Some of these options helped out. I clearly wasn't paying attention enough when I first went through the menu
  • @BBKDRAGOON
    Yo thanks Dark, I'm just coming back to Rise after a few year break, this is really helpful, thanks!
  • Day 1 and I've taken a very strong liking to the Hammer and the combos and moves you can do with it. Zoning and ranging took a couple hours to get but its fun and the ariels are so great for the flying enemies 😂. Played all day amd never though to change FOV sometimes hard to get the swing right with the FOV.
  • @lodevdb4179
    Learned allot from this video so you have my sub. I keep forgetting about the settings, ty for the reminder
  • The mhfu village theme hit me with when I first got into the monster hunter series
  • I keep the names on the upper left enabled because I keep an eye on other hunters' health. I always keep life powder so I have to know when I need to use it.
