Desert Ravine

The Desert Ravine (Japanese: Dry Canyons) is the first G-Rank subregion to be unlocked in Monster Hunter Destiny. It bears resemblance to the Gorge from Monster Hunter Frontier G.



Basic Information
Terrain Types: Desert, Cave, Freshwater

Areas: 11 + Base Camp

Rank Unlocked: G-Rank Online, HR 11

Weather: Sandstorms often. Strong sun often. Rainstorms occasionally. Rarely clear.

Areas 1, 2, and 4
Area 1 is dark, and a Torch is needed to see. Permanent torches are found in two places inside the cave, and can be lit to provide much-needed visibility. Stalactites hang down from the ceiling, and a trickle of water flows from Base Camp, through the center of this area, and all the way to Area 5.

Areas 2 and 4 aren't dark at all, thanks to light coming through the exits to Area 3 and 7. Bones and dung gathering spots can be found in these two areas. Area 4 in particular is a Necrocula roost, made evident by extra bones, dung, and scraps of fur gathered in the center of the area.

Area 6
This area, as with most of the cave areas, is very dark and requires the use of a Torch. As well as having the same luminous water as Area 5, it also features a few small "tide pools" scattered around. These "tide pools" are like bowls that rise several feet above the surface. An open chasm on the east side of the cave allows for one-way access to Area 7.

Area 9
Area 9 is an oasis, featuring a deep pool of water that certain monsters can climb into and out of. Bushes and palm trees encircle the oasis, and many plant and insect gathering spots can be found amongst the plants.
