In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, while your character doesn't level up with stat boosts like in traditional RPGs, there's still a crucial leveling system you need to understand: the Hunter Rank (HR). Here's a detailed look at the maximum Hunter Rank in *Monster Hunter Wilds* and the steps to increase it.
Monster Hunter Wilds Max HR Explained
As of now, *Monster Hunter Wilds* does not have a maximum Hunter Rank or HR cap. Similar to its predecessors, you can continuously increase your Hunter Rank as you progress through the game. Every 10 ranks, you'll receive a small reward, incentivizing you to push your HR as high as possible. However, once you've completed all High Rank missions, further grinding might only serve to enhance your bragging rights rather than providing practical benefits.
How to Increase Hunter Rank
Increasing your Hunter Rank in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is straightforward. Focus on completing the main story missions to raise your HR. During the story portion of the game, only these main missions contribute to your Hunter Rank increase; optional side quests do not. This is crucial because your HR affects the types of monsters you can hunt online, ensuring you stay competitive, especially when playing with friends.
Once you reach High Rank missions, new ones will become available as you defeat new and Tempered monsters. Concentrate on these to quickly boost your HR.
That covers everything you need to know about the maximum Hunter Rank in *Monster Hunter Wilds* and how to increase it. For more tips and detailed information on the game, be sure to check out resources like The Escapist.
