Monster hunter world update 3.0 patch notes

Monster Hunter: World Update 3.0 Adds 16-Player Hunting Sieges and a New Location, Read the Patch Notes

Monster Hunter: World has a lot more up its sleeve than goofy crossovers like Mega Man and Devil May Cry’s Dante. The first big free title update brought the new monster Deviljho for players to hunt. The second one adds a Kulve Taroth, a new monster that comes with a new mode and new location. Taking place in the new Caverns of El Dorado map, the hunt for Kulve Taroth is known as a Siege. Sieges are massive hunts that will require the help of every person in your Gathering Hub (up to 16 people total). The hunting party then splits up into groups of four to find clues and hunt down the same Kulve Taroth.

Defeating the new monster will give you materials to create brand new armor sets for both your hunter and your Palico, but that’s not all Monster Hunter: World update 3.0 brings to the table. A number of bug fixes and quality of life changes make the game easier to play, such as the ability to sell all Trade-in Items at once and the ability to sort investigations.

Bug Fixes

  • A bug has been fixed where the Jump Master skill would not activate during the beginning of the Vaulting Dance animation after a Jumping Advancing Slash or Strong Jumping Advancing Slash connect. The player will no longer go into a mid-air knockback animation.
  • A bug has been fixed where players would not recover from Defense Down status even when gaining a Defense Up buff from a Hunting Horn melody.
  • A bug has been fixed where during PS4 Ver 2.00/Xbox One 2.0.0.0, when the Self-Improvement Encore buff would add Attack Up for the player using the Hunting Horn, the Self-Improvement Encore message would not display “Attack Up + Deflected Attack Prevention”. The effect itself has not changed.
  • A bug has been fixed where your bait wouldn’t be consumed if you failed to reel in a giant creature.
  • A bug has been fixed where the Free Meal skill wouldn’t apply to Mushrooms you can eat via the Mushroomancer skill. Now when the Free Meal skill is active, Mushrooms will not be consumed when used.
  • A bug has been fixed where the lock-on cursor would target the space in front of Teostra’s face instead of the actual face when aiming the Slinger. The cursor will now lock onto Teostra’s face properly.
  • A bug has been fixed that caused Mining Outcrop points to not increase during High Rank quests and expeditions in all locales despite the environment info indicating that they are in upsurge.
  • A bug has been fixed to adjust the amount of Nitroshrooms harvested when using fertilizer. It has been adjusted to the following.

    No Fertilizer: 2

    Fungi Harvest Up (S): 2+2

    Fungi Harvest Up (L): 2+6

    Joyau perce-dragon[1]

  • Description text for the following three trophies/achievements have been updated, as previous translations had the term giant crowns instead of making a distinction between gold and silver crowns. This fix is for all languages except Japanese and Traditional Chinese.Giant Crown

    Giant Crown Collector

    Giant Crown Master

The update to the trophy descriptions is referring to one of the most notoriously difficult and grindy trophies to obtain in Monster Hunter: World. While it doesn’t appear to actually change the trophy requirements, the descriptions at least now realistically indicate the task ahead.

Are you excited for Monster Hunter: World update 3.0? Do you have 15 other friends you can go hunt Kulve Taroth with? The two free Monster Hunter: World title updates were only about a month apart from one another, so we can probably expect to see number three hit around this same time in May (I’d stake my money on May 17 or 24). Capcom has made it clear that the studio is working on actively updating the game in the future, and with the pretty quick and surprising release of Kulve Taroth, Caverns of El Dorado, and Sieges, I don’t think it will take them all that long to get another content update up and running.
