All Smithy Recipes And How To Unlock Them In Monster Hunter Stories 3

If you’ve ever played a Monster Hunter game, then you’ll know that committing acts of habitat destruction is the norm. You’re hunting down monsters to make a new pair of boots so you look nicer when you hunt them again.

Thematically, Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection has you instead restoring monsters. But effectively, you’re still hunting the ones that give you the nicest jacket. And the Smithy is more than happy to make it for you.

Everything You Can Do At The Smithy

The tutorial for the Smithy in Monster Hunter Stories 3.

The Smithy is your one-stop-shop for everything you can do with your materials. It’s where you get all of your weapons and armour crafted, as well as any upgrades from them.

While you do not create Decorations explicitly at the Smithy, fully upgrading any weapon or armour will unlock one, and this ends up being the source of the majority of Decorations, especially those that grant new Skills to your weapons.

There is a Smithy in every hub area in the game, though they don’t actually provide any unique effects over the Felynes you find outside each of the base camps you find in the world. In fact, these Felynes act as both the Melynx Emporium and Smithy. A nice two-in-one.

Every Armor And How To Unlock It

Soldiers standing in armour with halberds in Monster Hunter Stories 3.

Armors are primarily granted by defeating the respective monster that it is based on at least once, though there are also times where it will be restricted by story progress. If it doesn’t unlock after defeating a monster, then you just have to progress further in the story.

The elemental defenses of each armor are based on those of the monster itself, though the game also helpfully separates them by elemental category to easily find their highest resistance.

They also come with a great variety of skills that help them stand out, as well as Decoration slots so that you can customise them more for your specific build.
