Monster Hunter: World – Mantle, Booster and Pigment Unlock Guide

Monster Hunter: World – Mantle, Booster and Pigment Unlock Guide

One of the best and worst things about games like Monster Hunter: World is trying to find time to unlock it all. There is always going to be an opportunity cost, be it chasing after specific armor, HR, palico upgrades, trophies, features and oh so much more. One of the easiest to overlook are mantles, boosters and the unique pigment.

Unlike a lot of things, mantles and boosters are a great way to supplement your build and do so in a way that isn’t costing you much. What they do ranges from free healing to generating cash for you team to even unlocking specific skills. They’re a must if you plan on sticking around for the long haul and extremely useful if you just want to supplement builds. With this in mind, this guide will help you unlock them all.

Editor Note: Mantles and boosters are listed in the order they’re presented in game. In addition to that, since most of these are unlocked by doing one thing, followed by completing a quest, the guide will tell you the method to unlock and then proceed to tell you what needs to be done. I also included whether it was assigned or optional to make it easier to locate.
