Your adventure really begins in any Monster Hunter game after you've beaten the main story and start working your way up through the Master Ranks. As you get higher up in the rankings, the more difficult your hunts will get, not only requiring more knowledge and skill, but far better weapons and gear for your character, too. The series has always had the flow of hunting monsters, gathering materials, crafting better gear, and then hunting tougher monsters, and that remains true for Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak.

What You Need

  • Master Rank

Alongside the new area and monsters, there are plenty of new materials added in Sunbreak that you will need to gather to craft the newest and most powerful gear. Some can be picked up in the environments, while others like Prized Pelts need to be carved from smaller monsters in certain parts of the map. Because the new area is quite large, and there's always a chance you won't get a material drop on your first carve, it can be hard to pinpoint where exactly to get certain things. Here's exactly how you can get Prized Pelts in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak.

How to farm Prized Pelts from Kelbi

There are two smaller monsters in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak that have a chance at dropping Prized Pelts, the first of which are the deer-looking Kelbi. Here's the best way to farm them for this material.

Step 1: Enter the Shrine Ruins area and fast-travel to Sub-Camp 1.

Step 2: Travel between areas 11, 12, and 13 in a kind of circle. There should be around half a dozen in this path for you to kill as long as there aren't any other big monsters in those zones to scare them away.

Step 3: Assuming you're in Master Rank, each Kebli you carve will have a 30% chance to drop a Prized Pelt.

How to farm Prized Pelts from Anteka

The other monsters to hunt for that can drop Prized Pelt are the big-horned Anteka. Here's the best way to farm them.

Step 1: Go into the Frost Islands and start in Area 1.

Step 2: This is the only area this monster has been spotted in, so roam around here over and over while wiping them out.

Step 3: Anteka should be your backup option for farming Prized Pelts since they have worse drop rates. They will only drop in Master Rank at a rate of 18%, which is just over half the rate of the Kebli.

Prized Pelts can be used to make all the following armor and Buddy Equipment:

  • Khezu Coil X
  • Leather Headgear X
  • Kadachi Greaves X
  • Hunter's Helm X
  • Bone Vampraces X
  • Volvidon Mail X
  • Leather Gloves X
  • Lagombi Helm X
  • Hunter's Greaves X
  • Lagombi Coil X
  • Izuchi Coil X

How to get Refined Quartz in Stardew Valley
Fighting slimes in the mines of Stardew Valley.

Besides the basics of farming and giving gifts to other villagers in Stardew Valley, one of the first tips and tricks you learn is the importance of mining. Unless you are willing to use some cheats, this is the only way to get the proper materials to craft new and better versions of items. Quartz is a very common material that you can find almost anywhere, but Refined Quartz takes a few extra steps to get. It isn't hard once you know how it's done, and it will open up tons of new possibilities, so let's learn how to get Refined Quartz as fast as possible.
How to get Refined Quartz

There are three basic ways you can approach getting your hands on Refined Quartz. The first is by far the easiest and most reliable, so long as you have a furnace, some regular Quartz, and coal. If you don't have a furnace, you can make one with just 25 stone and 20 copper. Drop your coal into the furnace with coal powering it and leave it for half an in-game hour. Once it has been smelted, you will get a bar of Refined Quartz. However, if you find some Fire Quartz and smelt it, then you will get three Refined Quartz instead of just one.

Inside Capcom: how Monster Hunter Wilds’ sights and sounds are made
A hunter fighting a fights a beast in monster hunter wilds.

When I demoed the first five hours of Monster Hunter Wilds, I was thoroughly impressed by how detailed Capcom's latest AAA game is. 2018's Monster Hunter World was already a pretty game, but Monster Hunter Wilds takes it a step further with delicately designed animations and immaculate sound design. To top it all off, this game features one of the best main themes of a Capcom game ever. Capcom has been at the top of its game for the past several years, but I didn't fully understand why until recently.

Last month, Capcom flew me to Osaka, Japan, where I toured its headquarters. I already appreciated the visual power of the RE Engine, the proprietary game engine that Capcom has used for most of its recent Resident Evil games, Exoprimal, Dragon's Dogma 2, and more. During this tour, I learned how it has vastly improved the motion capture experience for Monster Hunter Wilds. On top of that, I gained more insight from the sound designers and musicians behind the game as to how Monster Hunter Wilds' memorable sound effects and main theme were created.
