************************** * MONSTER HUNTER 3 (TRI) * ************************** ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Map 1 - Kotou -------------------------- Item Gathering Guide ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ BY: shingenmochi AUTHOR NOTE: This guide originally appeared at [http://tabiasobiplus.blogspot.com]. Feel free to leave any comments, corrections, etc., on that site. Here is a list of the items you can gather from Monster Hunter 3 Tri's first map, "Kotou" (孤島) or Solitary Island. The island's 13 areas (including the Base Camp) house a total of 32 gathering points, which are marked by the following telltale signs: - Seed point: Looks almost like small brown rocks. - Mushroom point: Pretty easy to spot. Just look for, well, a ginormous mushroom. - Grass point: Actually looks more like a plant. - Bee point: Look for a hive. - Bug point: An area with bugs flying around. - Rock point: Marked by a big, conspicuous rock. - Bone point: Look for a bone piece that kind of looks like a white stone. - Fishing point: Basically marked by a body of water. Besides items from the gathering points, I included the stuff you can get via item exchange with the "Old Man" (which is the last section of this FAQ). I tried my best to match names to accepted English conventions from past Monster Hunter games. Those that I couldn't find a match for are marked with a question mark (?). In most cases, these are items that are new to MH3. Now let's check out the map: ============================== MAP: "Kotou" (Solitary Island) ============================== ==== ========== | 12 | (11)x| | ==== | | x(11) | | ====== | 10 | x| 11 | | | | |x(10)| | ====== | | (7)x === x(11) x(8) ========== | 8 | x === x(5) ===== | 9 | | | (8)x === === x(5) ===== | 7 |x(6) (7)x| 6 | x === x(6) === x(4) ===== x(3) === | 5 | | 4 | (8)x| | === (6)x ===== x x (7)x ======= x(2) ==== | | | | ==== | 3 | (3)x| 2 | x |Base| | | | | |Camp| ======= x(2) ==== ==== (3)x ==== x(1) | | | 1 | | | ==== First off, I apologize for my horrible ASCII art skills. I'm just hoping this mess of a map uploads in one piece with the formatting intact. Note that x's on the map indicate exits. In cases where the connection isn't obvious, I also indicated the area the exit leads to within brackets. For example, "x(11)" or "(11)x" means that exit leads to Area 11. Otherwise, if you want a map that makes a lot more sense, I have an actual scan from a Japanese guide I'm using posted here: http://tabiasobiplus.blogspot.com/2009/09/monster-hunter-3-map-area-1- solitary.html That one's certainly a lot easier on the eyes.
