Here are some tips for players who are stuck mid-game with certain challenges proving them a hard time or returning hunters getting ready for Iceborne.
Cultivate!
The Botanical Research NPC in Astera can grow useful items for you to use in your journey.
Some of the useful items we have found so far:
- Herb (for crafting Potions)
- Honey (for crafting Mega Potions)
- Might Seed (for attack boost or sell for instant money)
- Flashbugs (for crafting Flash Pods)
- Thunderbugs (foo crafting Shock Traps)
Craft Thunder and Fire Weapons
We are heading into the frozen wilds, and a number of the monsters are weak to Thunder and Fire.
For example, the Piscine Wyvern, Beotodus, is weak to Fire and Thunder, while Tigrex is weak to Thunder. Barioth is weak to Fire.
The Anjanath Weapon Tree has high raw plus fire element at the cost of negative affinity, while Rathalos weapons have great raw and decent fire element, with positive affinity to boot.
Get Those Tools
Tools consist of Mantles and Boosters. Mantles are wearable cloaks that bestow hunters with bonuses and resistances useful against certain monsters. Boosters provide you and your team helpful buffs and heals. These tools offer great utility to the squad.
The Iceproof Mantle is invaluable as we head into Iceborne, providing extra Ice resistance and deep snow mobility.
Here are all the tools:
Mantles:
- Ghillie Mantle
- Makes you temporarily invisible to monsters
- Vitality Mantle
- Negates a Fixed Amount of Damage
- Glider Mantle
- Allows gliding, grants the power to ride strong winds. Also makes it easier to mount monsters.
- Apothecary Mantle
- Increases Status Buildup
- Bandit Mantle
- Causes Rare Trade-In Item Drops
- Challenger Mantle
- Aggros monsters
- Evasion Mantle
- Increases evasion window, grants increased attack when evading at the last second.
- Fireproof Mantle
- Increased Fire Res, immune to Fire Blight and Blast Blight

Arekkz has compiled a video on how to unlock all of the tools stated above.
Finish Those Optional Quests
As you can see above, completing optional quests net you a boatload of utility items as well as certain items for deliveries. This helps you considerably for the final push later in the game.
Get All Palico Gadgets
Your cat partner is your invaluable ally, often helping you in ways you could not imagine. Provide your Palico with more tools to diversify its usefulness.
If you’re planning on hunting alone in Iceborne, the Palico’s Coral Orchestra will help a lot. It works like a Hunting Horn, and it buffs your hunter in all sorts of ways that make the fights less punishing.
Palico Gadgets also get buffs in Iceborne. For example, the Vigorwasp Spray at Level 11 can save you from a cart once with the Vigorwasp Revival.
Subsequently, completing these will also provide you with the Tailraider Rides. This is quite useful everywhere in the game. Think Uber rides, but with lizards and skunks as your drivers.
Stock Up On Items
Gather as many consumables that you can, the Tempered Elder Dragons will burn through your potion collections faster than a drunk wizard.
Flash Pods and Dung Pods are useful to change the flow of the fight.
Dung Pods will be useful to deter monsters as invaders such as Bazelgeuse and Deviljho will start to interrupt fights at higher ranks.
Unlock The Augments
Once you hit HR29, you’ll have a chance to receive an illusive Warrior Streamstone by completing a Threat Level 2 Tempered Monster investigation. This will allow you to augment your weapon, bestowing it with special bonuses such as follows:
- Attack Increase (+5 True Attack Value) – Increases Attack. Stacks with other upgrades.
- Affinity Increase (+10% Affinity) – Increases Affinity. Stacks with other upgrades.
- Defense Increase (+10 Defense) – Increases Defense and has a chance to reduce damage taken each time you receive damage. Stacks with other upgrades.
- Slot Upgrade – Adds an extra jewel slot. Stack with other upgrades to increase slots level.
- Health Regen – Regain Health as you land attacks. Stack with other upgrades to increase the amount of health regained.
Only Warrior and Hero Streamstones can unlock augments for your weapons.
Rarity 6 weapons will have 3 augmentation slots and require 1 Warrior Streamstone for each, along with some other materials. Rarity 7 weapons have 2 slots and require 2 Warrior Streamstones per slot. Rarity 8 weapons have only 1 slot that requires one Hero’s Streamstone.
Armour can also be augmented. However, augmenting armour allows for only one type of Augment, Upgrade Limit Removal. This removes the limit and allows further upgrading through the standard method to increase the pieces defence.

Augmentations Now Have Augment Slot Cost
In Iceborne, all available augmentations will now have slot costs. The more augment slots your weapons have, the more augmentations you can put into it.
Master Rank Weapon Augment Slot Costs

|---|---|---|
| Extra Slots | Adds more augment slots on weapon | - |
| Attack Increase | Slightly increases attack power of weapon | 3 |
| Health Regen | Slightly recovers health when damaging monsters | 3 |
| Slot Upgrade | Adds a Level 1 slot into weapon | 3 |
| Affinity Increase | Slightly increases affinity rate of weapon | 2 |
| Defense Increase | Defense is slightly increased with chance of reducing damage | 1 |
| Element/Status Effect Up | Slightly increases power of elements & status effects | 1 |
Extra Slots Adds 2 More Augment Slots
When you augment your weapon with Extra Slots, you'll get 2 additional augment slots. This doesn't fill up any augment slot but costs rare materials & some Research Points.
Strengthen Master Rank Weapons With Custom Upgrades
Another new feature of Iceborne, weapons now have custom upgrades. Using specific mods, you can slightly increase specific stats of your weapon & also change their appearance. More mods are unlocked when you keep upgrading a weapon.

Recommended Master Rank Weapon Augments
Best Master Rank Weapon Augment Chart
| Elements | Description |
|---|---|
| Health Regen | - Reduces need to use recovery items, therefore increasing time to attack monsters |
| Affinity Increase | - 2nd augment increases by 5% - Best for weapons with low affinity |
| Attack Increase | - Increase depends on weapon type - Recommended for weapons with high affinity |
| Slot Upgrade | - Best for weapons lacking slots |
| Defense Increase | - Low priority augment as defense should be armor-focused |
Focus On Health & Affinity Augments
It's best to augment weapons with Health Regen & Affinity Increase as these work make hunting more efficient. If your chosen weapon already has a high affinity rate, it's best to use Attack Increase instead.
Choosing Between Attack Or Affinity Increase
Prioritize Weapons With Low Affinity
Having a weapon with high affinity will increase your chance of dealing critical hits & doing heavy damage so it's best to raise the affinity rate of your weapons. However, note that Affinity Increase augments have diminishing returns.
Use Attack Increase With High Affinity Weapons
If your weapon of choice already has a high affinity or cannot be augmented with Health Regen, you can opt to augment it with Attack Increase. This will strengthen your raw attack stat, making each hit more powerful!
