You need to move with main quest

I can't, it tells me to raise my HR lol

Usually when your'e stuck at a rank, it means that you need to do a story quest to continue. Once that quest is done, either it will level you up to 41 if there's another story quest after or it will unlock the Hunter Rank and you will hit your true level based on all the experience that has been pent up.

As I mentioned my main quest is "raise your HR" so no, that's not it

[IcePaper]

have you done all otional quests ? had same issue fixed it by doing all optionals

[Даки]

What's the last main quest that you did?
If it's tempered Lala and Fulgur then I just did one investigation and then I had to speak to Nata to continue

[Siameasy]

i did a tempered rathalos investigation and my quest moved forward

[Venandi]

Listen at what Alma says when you move from one location to another, I think you need to talk to Olivia somewhere (I don't remember where) to continue with the main quest

SOS Flare Thundering Flowers quest. This was the only quest that would work to actually advance once i ran into this issue.

Nothing about this game is intuitive- it's probably the worst AAA implementation of a console port in gaming history. It's somehow less intuitive and worse structured than MHWorld. There is a glitch with being stuck at L40.

[Slyther]

The way to resolve the glitch is to join someone else's SOS main story quest mission, which will trigger you being able to get the next main story quest. For example, join an SOS for the spider+anjanath mission, thundering flowers. I think you can even join and leave but not 100% on that- it tried to make me redo the frost leviathan that I already did the mission for, I joined an SOS for it and left, it progressed my main story ahead of that.

It is in fact an unresolved bug, at least in terms of retroactively being fixed to those already affected, and that is the current workaround.

It's not a bug or a glitch, it's just badly explained. You just need to get enough HR points after getting the quest for the next one to appear.
Basically just do a few hunts and the next story quest will appear.
Here's the official Monster Hunter Status twitter account talking about this:

In that case they need to change it to a bar that fills up with HR points rather than just saying "Go raise this thing you've already maxed for now"

Just do one hunt. Don’t know why so many people stuck on creating all these threads instead of doing this what the quest log tell you and just playing the game. -.-

Probably because you can do 3+ quests and it not change at all, you'll be at the HR cap for that part of the story and it legitimately looks like a bug at that point.
