Hey hunters!
This is the Monster Hunter Now Development Team.

Driftsmelting Updates

We’ve implemented the following updates today to make driftsmelting even more fun and easy to play.

• Skills granted by each driftstone have been revised.

• Smelting distance for driftstones and driftgems has been reduced from 5 km to 2 km.
• You’ll now have a higher chance of obtaining driftstones after successful hunts.
• The maximum number of Driftstone Shards you can hold has been raised from 200 to 300.
• The number of skills you can store has been increased from 10 to 20.
• Driftgems now contain only one skill type, guaranteeing that specific skill when used.

Thank you to all the hunters who shared their feedback through our community forum and social channels. We truly appreciate your continued input!

What is Driftsmelting?
Driftsmelting is a feature that allows you to grant skills to your equipment using driftstones, which are obtained by hunting monsters. Driftsmelting can be unlocked by completing the pre-season story. For more details, please refer to the FAQ.

Update on Feature Release Timing

In the roadmap we shared at the end of August, we mentioned the following features would be released during Season 7. However, their release has been moved to Season 8 or later:

• Hunt with friends in faraway places
• New paid items to help during hunts

Our development team is continuing to refine these features to ensure they deliver the best possible experience. We apologize for the delay and appreciate your patience as we work hard to bring them to you soon.
