The main goal of Monster Hunter Now is to defeat the Large Monsters that roam the lands while also becoming stronger with upgraded armor and weapons crafted using the materials from defeated creatures. This is the grind of Monster Hunter, and even though Now is a mobile/beginner-friendly iteration, the traditional routines are still present.
If players are having trouble figuring out the weaknesses of Monsters or finding out what they drop at what tiers, this guide will certainly be helpful. In the table below, Monster Hunter Now fans will find a list of every monster in the game we've found so far, as well as their type, weakness, and dropped materials.
Updated September 25, 2023: We've added five-star info for Great Jagras, Kulu-Ya-Ku, Paoluma, Anjanath, and Legiana.
This Monster Hunter Now guide is a work in progress. As we spend more time with the mobile game and discover more and more monsters and higher star ratings, we will continue to update the list below with the necessary info.
