What is hunter rank mhw?

In Monster Hunter World (MHW), Hunter Rank (HR) is a progression system that unlocks various game features and quests. Initially, a player's HR is locked to 16, but as they progress through the story and complete specific objectives, their HR will increase. Hunter Rank is divided into two categories: the Offline HR system that is the base game's solo story progression, and the Online HR system that is the game's multiplayer mode.

The highest level of HR in MHW is HR 999, and it takes a significant amount of time and effort to reach this level. As your HR increases, you will unlock more difficult quests, more powerful rewards, and more content, such as new monsters, weapons, and armor.

Hunter Rank is also tied to Elderseal, which is a type of weapon property that allows players to disable the special abilities of some powerful monsters. The higher the HR of a weapon, the higher its Elderseal rating.

One important thing to note is that HR is separate from player proficiency and skill. A higher HR does not necessarily equate to a better player, and some players may choose to stay at a lower HR for their own reasons.
