All Subquests And Side Stories And Their Rewards In Monster Hunter Stories 3

by

Monster Hunter Stories 3 features numerous side quests. While many involve simple tasks like hunting particular monsters or gathering items, they still add to the overall experience.

Many of these side quests offer excellent rewards, like new crafting recipes and special armor sets, so they’re definitely worth doing. Your companion quests are particularly rewarding, offering unique items, so it’s a good idea to complete them all.

Every Side Story And Their Rewards

Each companion character has four unique Side Stories. These stories become available as you explore each of the game’s main regions. Serathis is the only exception – because it doesn’t have a central hub area, its Side Stories can be started from Tarkuan instead.
