Shortcut to Section 6

From the Water Forest, head the opposite way from the road -- out towards the backside of the sleeping tent. Walk into the water and look for an underwater tunnel to take you to area 6.

Shortcut in Sandy Plains

Once you arrive at camp, go behind the red delivery box and through the entrance and you will arrive at Section 7.

Live Bait

When fighting a boss, it helps to take Cha-Cha along with you. Why? Because he makes a great distraction for the boss.

Getting Stolen Items Back

Felynes and Melynxes steal your items from time to time. If this happens, quickly hit them and they will return the stolen item. If they happen to get away with something important to you, you can still get it back. On every map there is a large cat statue positioned somewhere. Normally if you check it, nothing is found, but under the circumstances above, you will find your item again.

Shorcut from Camp to Section 9

From the camp, head down to the dock and jump in the water. Swim downwards through the tunnel and you will arrive in Section 9

Plus (+) Items

To get "plus items", you need to fight high ranked monsters online. You cannot obtain those items offline.

Kelby Horns

To get Kelby Horns, stun them with a shield bash or a sword slap. You can carve them while they're stunned for this item.

Trapping and Capturing

Playing the single player mode is a great idea, especially through the missions where you have to capture beasts. "Capturing" is an important skill to learn, and nothing makes you look like an awful player online like picking up a trap in the supply box and immediately setting it down on the ground. If no one has materials, the mission is pretty much failed.

Three steps for trapping:
(1) Weaken the monster until it is limping,
(2) drop a trap either in a path where it will go or while it is sleeping,
(3) hit it a bunch of times with tranq bombs/tranq bullets until you get mission complete. Stronger monsters (meaning both less damaged/more powerful) need more tranq shots.

Wii Online Operations

You can only send someone a friend request by sending them a message, and you can only send a message to another player when they're online. It's annoying but at least once they're on your list they stay on your list. Note that messages in your inbox are deleted when you go offline. Unfortunately, you can also only send messages/add friends when the person is in a city and not on a quest.

When you create a character, you are immediately put in Moga village in the single player form. If you want to jump straight to online, choose "Quit Game" and then select the option "Mode Select." When you are at the mode select screen, choose "City" (the option on the right).
