Max Level Guiding Lands (7, 7, 7, 7, 7)

[₰Lin₰]

So I just ran into someone in the GL who had every region maxed out to 7. As far as I understood, that's impossible to do, isn't it? I've checked all the mod places I'm aware of and don't see any such mod that would make it plausible to get all regions maxed, so I have to ask.

CAN you max them all? o_O If so, how? Because as far as I knew, it was just 3.

[Mave]

In theory, yes. What is more likely? Take a guess.

[Scorcher]

It is possible but it takes far far too long to do normally. People have indeed done it on consoles though. Look at it like this, to get a max level in the guiding lands you'll need maybe 1500 xp for example. Killing a monster will give little to none and an leder dragon gives like 14 so you'll need to kill like 100+ elder dragons to get 1 single max level rinse and repeat over and over until you get all the levels. More than likely it may have been modded.

[Narcoleptic Marshmallow]

It's technically not impossible, but you'd need to play 24/7 for longer than the 40 days the game has been out on PC.

So yes, they're cheating.

[Erudax]

As far as I know, it's possible. Kill Velkhana and Savage Deviljho as they give exp in all regions. But the exp gain is minimal and you'd need thousands to advance to 7. Someone did it on PS4, but on PC it's most likely a cheat.

Hmmmm so wait, Elder Dragons don't lower the value of another region they simply raise the value of whatever region they're in?

Or certain cases like Rajang where I know he doesn't negatively impact any region?

Every monster inhabits certains areas, you can check those in the lure screen. Area exclusive monsters grant a lot of xp for that area, monsters that show up everywhere, like Savage in all 6 maps, give xp to ever region, but the amount is miniscule. By hunting stuff like Nami, exclusive to the Coral, you lose xp in another region. Hence why getting 77711 is kinda tricky as it is.

You can max out your guiding lands by killing a couple thousand tempered elder dragons there. Every few hundred tempered elder kills in the guiding lands will add 1 to the total levels that you can have.

It's PC VERSION so anything is possible

5800 Tempered Velkhanas, afaik.

Any tempered T3s

Anyone got a source for getting all to 7? Afaik you can only max 3 and other 2 are at 1 because the total level of all regions caps out at 23 currently.

If all regions are max level, they're cheating cause I have not seen any info about having all regions at max level as there is a cap.

To explain the two exceptions to the cap rule:

1. The cap is a softcap. Positive region exp gains have a negative multiplier after you've passed the cap. However, you still technically gain exp every single time you kill a monster, so killing multiregion monsters still advances your levels by tiny increments.

2. Every time you kill a Tier 3 Tempered monster, the cap goes up by a miniscule amount. IIRC every Region Level is worth 10,000 exp and the cap goes up by 24 per T3 Tempered kill. So, killing roughly 400 T3 Tempered monsters essentially raises the cap by 1.

The softcap thing is pretty easily observable, the second thing was proven by a Japanese console player who did manage to get all regions to 7 by using that method.


However, killing the thousands upon thousands of Tempered T3 monsters to get all Region Levels to 7 is essentially impossible to do legit this early on into Iceborne PC's lifecycle. If we assume every run takes 10 minutes on average, you would need to be farming Tempered T3s nonstop for something like 960 hours. That's pretty much over a month's worth of nonstop playtime.

Or you can use pure cheese builds like this.

My guess is that even on console they cheated by abusing the fact that you can disconnect from someone else's GL and maintain the monsters at the same HP. (Unless this was patched at some point)

E.g. one person hosts a GL expedition and their friend joins. They get the T3 tempered down to about 5% health and the "guest" forcibly disconnects (e.g. unplugs network cable). They end up in their own copy of the GL with the monster at 5% and kill it. Then they reconnect to the internet, rejoin the same GL session, where the monster (which the host never killed) is still at 5%, and repeat that for as long as the monster stays in the host's session.

People had max Hunter rank of 999 before the 3rd month of the game being out on PS4. If it's possible people are doing it jsut to do it.
