Changes: Tundra

MH3: Tundra Music Theme

The Tundra is an icy land, harsh on life. A glacier floats by certain areas, whilst Popos forage in the snow. This area is known for both its lightly forested areas and terrifyingly dark caves. Unlike the Snowy Mountains, the Tundra contains no high-altitude areas, and like the other general areas in the game, has been given a more creative and elaborate name. Hot Drinks or the armor skill Cold Cancel (High) are needed to stop your stamina level from depleting faster than usual. When hunting in the tundra at night, if the warming effect is not active then your stamina will decrease at a faster rate. Most areas actually only need the Cold Cancel (Low) armor skill to stop the stamina depleting effects, as shown by the dull blue and grey colors of the areas on the map. However, Areas 2 and 6 interchangeably require the Cold Cancel (High) armor skill, due to blizzard-like conditions present in those areas, depending on night and day respectively. This is shown by the bright blue coloring of these areas on the map depending on whether the hunt takes place during the day or during the night.

Secret Area

DragonBone relics are gathered here as well as Gracium, Isiums, Bloodrun jewel, Stone, and Ice Crystal

The only way to get up to this secret area is with the "Explore" food skill and HR +40 Tundra quest. You can also rarely start in this area in high rank quests.

Notes

Behind the bed at the Base Camp, is a map of the Monster Hunter region.
Large icy rocks float by in the base camp, if watched carefully, one can observe the same pattern of ice rocks repeatedly floating by.
While large ice rocks float by in the base camp, so do the large glacier walls, this hints at a warmer Tundra, causing glacier melting.

Changes in Monster Hunter Portable 3rd

The cave areas do not require a torch to be lit. They are all pre-lit.
The path from Area 3 to Area 5 is no longer one-way.
Mining is done from cracks in the wall as in MHFU, instead of random spawning crystals.
Jade Barroth and Deviljho can break open the path to the Areas 8 and 9. Dragon bone relics can be found here.

Changes in Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate

Brachydios, Jade Barroth, and Stygian Zinogre can open the path to Area 8 and 9.
