Additionally, you may rely on your Palico companion to mark monsters for you for hunting later. If you’re wondering how exactly Palico Paintballs work, or how to get more of them, you’ve come to the right place.
What Are Palico Paintballs?
Palico Paintballs work in much the same way as normal Paintballs. By marking a monster that you may see on your map, you cansave it for later, adding it to a list ofup to eight monsters.Monsters will stay marked for 48 hours, at which point they will expire and beremoved from the list.
Normally, to use a Paintball, you need tosee the monster on your map. Then, by tapping on it before beginning the hunt, you’ll have the option tomark it with a Paintball.
For Palico Paintballs, this process will be doneautomatically. In fact, youdon’t even need to have the game open. As long as you haveAdventure Sync enabledin the settings, and have allowed Monster Hunter Now to uselocation services in your devices settings, your Palico willautomatically mark monsterswhile you walk around.
How To Get Palico Paintballs
