Max Hunter Rank in Monster Hunter Wilds: Tips to Increase

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, while your character doesn't level up with traditional stat boosts as seen in other RPGs, there's still a vital progression system you should understand: the Hunter Rank (HR). Here's everything you need to know about the maximum Hunter Rank and how to increase it in the game.

Monster Hunter Wilds Max HR Explained

As of now, *Monster Hunter Wilds* does not have a maximum Hunter Rank or an HR cap. Similar to its predecessors, you can continue to elevate your Hunter Rank indefinitely as you progress through the game. Every time you advance by 10 Ranks, you'll receive a small reward, making it worthwhile to push your HR as high as possible. However, once you've completed all your High Rank missions, further grinding your HR might only serve as a point of pride rather than a necessity.

How to Increase Hunter Rank

Increasing your Hunter Rank in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is straightforward. Focus on completing the main story missions. During the story portion of the game, only these missions will contribute to raising your HR; optional side quests won't affect it. This is crucial because your HR influences the types of monsters you can hunt in online play, ensuring you're not left behind, especially when playing with friends.

Once you reach the High Rank missions, new challenges will emerge as you defeat new and Tempered monsters. Concentrating on these will help you increase your HR more quickly.
