Rare Items

 

Monster Hunter revolves around getting monster materials and using them to make armour and weapons. If you want to know the best quest to farm a particular item, look in the list below! These were worked out by using the Farmer's Almanac (see Useful Resources) and contains the chance of getting AT LEAST 1 of the item in a quest (you may always get more). For those who aren't G-rank and are trying to find rare items, scoll down to the High Rank Items section.

 

NOTE - The reward chances for event quests are UNKNOWN, so event quests have not been included in the results.
