How to Increase Master Rank & Max Master Rank Level in Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak

Here’s a breakdown of how you can increase your Master Rank in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, as well as what the max Master Rank level is. Master Ranks are a new addition in Sunbreak that allow players to take on even more challenging hunts, which is great news for players who have already played the crap out of the base game. Let’s get into it.

What Master Rank Does

As mentioned earlier, by increasing your Master Rank, you’ll be able to go on more challenging hunts. And by taking down the tougher monsters, you can gather even more high quality materials to make better armor and weapons, which will make your subsequent hunts more manageable.

This is the core gameplay loop of Monster Hunter, and it remains intact in Sunbreak as well. Whenever you get stuck, consider farming some of your earlier hunts for materials to craft better equipment, then take on the highest level challenge available to you.

Increasing Master Rank in Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak

If you’ve already played the base game, then you should already be pretty familiar with how the Master Rank system works in Sunbreak.

It works the same way as your Hunter Rank in the original campaign of Monster Hunter Rise, and as it increases, you’ll be able to go on harder hunts.

All you have to do is play through the Sunbreak story content, and your Master Rank will increase naturally. Do all of your regular quests as they pop up, and once you’ve done enough of them, an Urgent Quest will become available to you.

Once you clear that Urgent Quest, your Master Rank will go up by one.

If you take a look at the top right corner of your screen, the game will also tell you how many regular quests you need to complete in order for the next Urgent Quest to open up.
