Monster Hunter Generations Any% NewGame+

An incomplete and poorly formatted guide I was working on when I was trying to run this. The strats aren't perfect and were developed with different attack up skills activated. I had this sitting around for awhile and since I worked a lot on it but then stopped for a long time, I figured I might as well upload what I have somewhere.

Note- the guide is for Any% NewGame+; from a new game after character creation to the beginning of the credits dance scene. It allows for DLC item packs.

--Key:

A1E, etc Area 1 entrance
