You already had the walk-in-the-part version of the egg delivery quest, so you shouldn’t be surprised to find that this one is somewhat more challenging. There are a few unspoken snags to this quest that you need to be prepared for ahead of time; first, you must have the Ancient Forest Camp location unlocked in the boughs of the forest and second, you should be prepared to fight a Rathian in this quest, as the mother of those eggs won’t let them go without a fight.

Fighting a Rathian has been covered in the quest Royal Relocation, so you won’t be burdened with redundant strategy. Just be aware that the terrain is much more… vertical… in the Ancient Forest, and the Rathian will flee to a variety of lofty nests as you fight it and chase it off. It’ll take you much longer than it’ll take the Rathian to get to these locations, so be prepared for quite a bit of running about. Its nest in this map is in AREA 16, fairly close to the Ancient Forest Camp in AREA 17. While you can move between those areas fairly easily while unburdened by crawling under a branch, when you’re carrying an egg you’ll have no choice but to go around clockwise - a much longer route. The eggs, of course, are in the Rathian’s nest in AREA 16.

(1 of 2) After the Rathian is defeated, it’s a trivial manner to grab the eggs from its nest

After the Rathian is defeated, it’s a trivial manner to grab the eggs from its nest (left), Mark the nearby camp and follow the Scoutflies on a circuitous route to deposit the eggs in your Supply Box (right)

Once you defeat the Rathian, you should have little to fear save some Vespoids, and even then, only if you stand still for a quite a while. Claim your prize from the Rathian nest and walk through the boughs of the Ancient Forest to reach the Ancient Forest Camp. If you’re not sure of the route, simply press [R3] on the Ancient Forest Camp to set a waypoint, then follow the Scoutflies there.

This guide features a full, beginning-to-end walkthrough written in an “ideal chronological order of events” format. Main quests are interspersed with side quests in the order in which they unlock, although some side quests and arena challenges may only be referenced instead of fully explained. These are typically quests that have you facing a monster you’ve already fought under similar circumstances that offer no unique reward for completion. For example, after completing most main quests you won’t be able to attempt that quest again, but you’ll usually unlock an identical side quest allowing you to hunt the same monster in the same area with the same success/failure conditions.

Monster strategies will be discussed in detail as you encounter them throughout the walkthrough, featuring elemental and status information and drop lists. The guide also features a fully detailed bestiary for those who just want information about specific monsters unaccompanied by a walkthrough. Trophy/achievement information can also be found in a separate trophy/achievement guide, although be warned: many trophies/achievements in Monster Hunter World are easier said than done.

Other features of this guide include:

  • Information on crafting/harvesting.
  • Side quests that unlock mantles, ingredients and other useful features.
  • Field Researcher quests including where to catch rare fish, how to capture small monsters, and where to locate Grimalkynes/Gajalaka.
  • Grimalkyne/Gajalaka quests.
  • How to upgrade the Ancient Tree/Harvest Box and how to unlock various fertilizers.
  • How the Elder Melder works, melding different items and decorations.
  • Where to find the Powertalon and Armortalon, and how to upgrade them into the Powercharm and Armorcharm.
  • Detailed information on how to unlock Tempered Monsters, the difference between Threat Level 1, 2 and 3 Tempered Monsters.
  • Information on Feystones, including drop rates, the differences between the types (Mysterious, Gleaming, Worn and Warped).
  • How to get Warrior’s Streamstones and Hero’s Streamstones.
