---------------------------------------------------
3. HUNTER RANK NOTES
---------------------------------------------------
* You can only raise your first "8" Hunter Rank through Port Tanzia.
* Port Tanzai’s quest are more challenging than Moga Village. Monsters there
are stronger, harder, and more difficult.
* It is best to raise your Hunter Rank through multiplayer such as connecting
with other local 3DS players or online through the Wii U.
* Some "Key Quest" requires “Pre-Requisites” which you must complete before it
shows up.
* Completing all available “Key Quest” will unlock the “Urgent Quest”.
* Upon completing the “Urgent Quest” your Hunter Rank will raise.
* Once you get to Hunter Rank 8, talk to the the Guildmaster at Port
Tanzia and your Hunter Rank might raise above HR 8 depending on the amount
time you've been grinding for both Moga Village and Port Tanzai.
---------------------------------------------------
4. CHECKING YOUR HUNTER RANK
---------------------------------------------------
1) Press start.
2) Move to Info.
3) Click on Status.
4) You should see your HR highlighted in blue and Next [HR points] in green.
You can only see "Next" after reaching Hunter Rank 8.
5) HR points can be gained from both Moga Village and Port Tanzai. The
harder the quest, the more HR points you'll gained.

======================================
G-Rank Quests LV ******** [HR8-XXX]
======================================
After achieving Hunter Rank 8 and talking to the Guildmaster, it is
possible that your Hunter Rank will raise abruptly. This is due to
all the grinding and HR points you've been accumulating before
reaching Hunter Rank 8. The more quest you've have complete the more
HR points you'll accumulate. You can check how much HR points you have
received after completing a quest.
---------------------------------------------------
6. HR POINTS FARMING QUEST
---------------------------------------------------
It is best to do "[Advanced] Pack Mentality" in G-Rank Quest LV ******
Quest until you reach HR 80. Then from there on farm "Four Point Formation"
in G-Rank Quest LV ********.
NOTES:
* These two quest are the easiest/fastest way to farm HR points.
* [Advanced] Pack Mentality" quest appears and disappears randomly. If
farming solo and quest doesn't appear, go to Moga Wood and exit. Then
check to see if it appears at Port Tanzia, if not repeat.
* Food Skills "Felyne Exchanger" increases HR points you can earn.
* Dying everytime would result in a -20 HR points.
======================================
[Advanced] Pack Mentality
======================================
Hunt 3 Barioth
Without Felyne Exchange: 4410 HR Points
With Felyne Exchange: 6615 HR Points
======================================
Four Point Formation
======================================
Hunt a Nargacuga, a Barioth, a Green Nargacuga, and a Sand Barioth
Without Felyne Exchanger: 6180 HR Points
With Felyne Exchanger: 9270 HR Points

for this game (solo) while Port Tanzia is for you to do afterwards and
experience a more challenging game play (solo/multiplayer).
