Head over to our Monster Hunter World Iceborne guide to make your start. If you are looking for specifically Monster Hunter World Iceborne guides, then we have created a separate guide hub for just expansion stuff. This Monster Hunter: World combat guide will go over the different weapon types in the game, as well as give some tips on how to upgrade and how best to use them. You can generally get a good idea of what they do by experimenting with them in the Training room, found in your quarters in Astera, but this guide will go over each of the weapon types, analyse their various strengths and weaknesses, and where they are best used. They all behave in different ways some being very slow to wind up to deal blows, while others opt for a more nimble approach. When beginning your Monster Hunter: World journey, you'll be given the most basic version of each of the fourteen different weapons.
