Unlocking the Switch Skill Swap in MHR Sunbreak

Luckily, you won’t have to wait long for the Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Switch Skills. The first time you speak to Master Utsushi in Elgado, the new Sunbreak Area, he should offer to teach you about the new Switch Skills. This unlocks the ability to use the Switch Skill Swap, which allows you to switch between Switch Skills in the middle of a hunt.

The rest of the new Switch Skills will unlock Master Rank 4. They’ll be available from Merchant Kage and Doctor Tadori, allowing you to unlock several Switch Skills at once. That means no questing, gathering mushrooms, or leveling up MR beyond 4. By the time you’re MR4, you’ll have access to all the Switch Skills you could want. This is a welcome change from the past, where you would have needed to do quests to unlock new Switch Skills before you could purchase them and equip them.
