u/TheConceptualThinker

Hello, I keep forgetting to post these ideas or inklings I get from playing the game but here they are.

Since Nata seems to be grown in the trailer of Ascendance a lot have suspected him to be a support hunter which makes me wonder if he'll still handle material retrieval. I can also see if he still does maybe he offers special material retrieval for the hunter like monster parts (Kinda like in rise/break with palicos if I'm remembering correctly)

I also believe we'll see expanded maps for the current biomes like they did with the scarlet forest for the T1 update. What leads me to believe this is sometimes the ceratonoths (windward plain stegos) can walk into areas we can't reach as players. Which leads me to believe there are plans to expand the biome (possibly, because why code ground otherwise?). I've also have seen the small wyverns flying outside of range as well.

If I discover more in my exploration I'll be sure to share my thoughts with y'all.

There's a lot I want to see so here goes:

Gameplay changes/enhancement:

Weapon upgrade system reined in. We shouldn't have two systems where one is used mostly for layered weapon armor and the other gacha style gambling. And I'll admit I dig it kinda for skill set bonuses but the endgame monster weapon tree should offer something gogma weapons can't that make them more viable in specific instances.

Weapon combos that aren't just booster brace defined. I'd like to see a little more variety, like a couple cool new things we can do. As a lance main I desire a little more interaction with my weapon and the monster, that being said I like where it's at for the most part... I just want more ways to poke I guess.

More unique quests. Give us some gathering quests and egg delivery quests.

I read somewhere the game has shifted more to monster fighter vs. monster hunter and I can't agree more. I'd like to see more tracking elements in game. A fun way to implement this would be to add conditions that make us need to use things like paintballs and other tools that don't get used as much. A few more capture quests would be nice as well.

Please add hunter profile selfies to end hunt screen. Let us show our fashion off.

Monsters:

Subspecies for chatacabra, quematrice, rompompolo and ajarakan and xu wu. We already have subs for Anjanath, doshaguma, ratholos, odogaron and arkveld as guardians. And nerscylla got the clone variant. I'd like to see what they can do with these monsters in ascendance.

Returning monsters I'd like to see would be, pukei pukei, zamtrios, seltas king and queen, brachydios. I could name others but I'll keep it short.

New monsters I'd like to see would be, a giraffe like monster, a ghidorah like elder, a crab like monster, a butterfly/moth monster, a cat like monster.

Variant apexes. I'd like to see environmental switches in the 4 apex monsters we have. Like a dusty uth duna, scarlet jin dahaad, molten rey dau, icy nu udra.

Cool stuff:

I really like barrel bowling and I think having two more mini games like it would be fun.

I like the way Gemma and Werner help out with traps and would like to see this expanded.

Unique stuff similar to the street fighter and final fantasy crossover content but Monster Hunter-esque. I'd like to see a boxing glove weapon even if it's just a unique armor set combo that allows you to box the monsters.

Unique weapon skins. Just weird wacky things we can use to fight monsters. Miss my chicken leg from world...

Anyway that's what I'm hoping for. What do you want to see in the dlc?

I've seen others post about this but I've tried everything to get it to work. I went through all except 10 of the optional quests with my palico + 50ish beware the chatacabre (Not accounting for previous quests done with palico) Achievement has been close since I started the optional hunts.

P.S.

Finally got it after resetting my Xbox and doing 3 more quests.
