Tracking and Preparing for a Hunt

• Place Hunting Towers:
  
  • To locate creatures quickly, each region should be covered with hunting towers. 
  • You can place hunting towers in any region with working dragon Pits nearby.
  • You should place multiple Towers in one region, and to help ensure you have covered the entire region, you can look at the map to see the Towers' range.
  • Interact with one Tower, and it will activate all the Towers in that region simultaneously and give you X-Ray Vision of all bosses in the area.
• Read the Cyclopedia to prepare for each hunt. It contains information on all the Kemono you’ve encountered so far, and it provides the strengths and weaknesses of each creature.
• Use Dragon Karakuri to help you travel quickly. This will reduce time spent traveling from place to place and is vital for chasing down wounded beasts before they can heal.
• Place hunting tents near a Dragon Pit to act as fast travel points. Therefore, instead of respawning at your starter camp, you can respawn at the point nearest to your next quest.
• Instead of accepting quests from a single quest-giver character in town, you can embark on quests from the main map or by interacting with a campfire.
• You should not be afraid to craft multiple of the same weapon type as you will upgrade each of them in different ways so they’ll become useful in certain situations.
• Use the mechanical bear training dummy to practice new weapons. It can be found outside the starter camp in Harugasumi Way and on the shore of Minato.

Attacking Your Target

Crates and Bulwarks should be used to deflect attacks.

• Crates can be used for both offense and defense as they can block attacks of a weaker Kemono, and you can climb them and jump from them for a more powerful plunging midair attack with any weapon.
• A Bulwark is stronger and can be created by placing 6 crates in a 2x3 formation. These are strong enough to stop Kemono attacks.

Look out for Hunter’s Arm opportunities. Once you damage the Kemono, glowing spots will appear. Once they do, grab onto the Kemono, shuffle to the areas, and hit the interact button. Your Hunter’s Arm will then be engaged, allowing you to get onto the top of the creature and burst the glowing patch. This will give you an extra Karakuri Thread and leave the Kemono vulnerable to heavy attacks.

Loot and What To Do With It

You should harvest loot from broken Kemono parts, as the parts severed during a fight can often be harvested individually for bonus materials.

Collect your Tsukumos as they are handy:

• As you gather them, you will find they will start helping you in small ways. For example, some will attract the attention of the Kemono bearing down on you; some will spread a healing mist around the area which heals you up, and others might automatically attack the Kemono.
• You can upgrade Tsukumo by interacting with a Campfire, which will give you extra benefits such as improved health and attack power.

Don’t let inventory fill up, as you won’t be able to collect items you may need. It is therefore advised that you sell items that are easily obtained.

You can unlock new Karakuri by using the Kemono Orbs that you collect. You can access the Karakuri upgrade tree by opening the map and going over one tab to the Karakuri screen.


Springs should be used to avoid attacks.
