Monster Hunter Now – Weapon Upgrading Explained

First off, you need to become familiar with what weapons do. In Monster Hunter Now, they help you eliminate monsters that are out to get you.

The catch with this game is that you will need to get up and walk around in order to find new monsters.

Monsters will be revealed on your map as you walk around. Please be wary while playing this game, always make sure you are watching out for yourself as you are walking.

Remember Pokemon Go? This game is exactly the same sort of concept, however, instead of collecting monsters, you will need to attack them.

Now in order to upgrade your weapons, you will first need to gather the required items in order to forge your weapons first.

The items required to forge a weapon can be obtained by killing monsters. Don’t be alarmed, you will receive your first weapon for free during the Monster Hunter Now tutorial.

This weapon is the “Hunter’s Knife” and is perfect to start out with, however, using it long-term is not advisable, as monsters become stronger and less easy to annihilate as you progress.

Only a small amount of resources are needed the first few times you upgrade a weapon, however, as they overgrade (see details further on), they become more expensive to upgrade.

Each time you upgrade the weapon or armor (equipment), the number of resources needed to upgrade will increase. Make sure you have enough in order to upgrade, as it can become quite expensive.

The following items are required to upgrade the first set of weapons:
