It's not hyperbole to say that Monster Hunter Rise has been a phenomenal success for Capcom. Aside from performing well financially, it quickly became a critical darling and, while maybe not as rich with content as its predecessor, Monster Hunter World, was, it's easily one of the best games in series. But it isn't completely devoid of issues and has already suffered from a couple of nasty bugs.

Not long after release, Capcom had to warn players of an oddly specific bug that could make save data completely inaccessible, thus scuppering hard-earned progress. Thankfully, this has since been fixed, but now players have reported another, less severe but still annoying issue involving the Melding Pot.

In Monster Hunter Rise, players can use the Melding Pot to create Talismans, special equipment that provide new skills, which can range from giving players improved resistance against certain attacks or increasing how much health is restored from items. There are several different ways to use the Melding Pot but, while most of them let players craft Talismans with specific skills, there is an option to make multiple Talismans at once with completely random skills, called Melding - Wisp of Mystery.

The problem is that when some players use this method, the pot creates the same Talismans in the exact same order, which kind of goes against the random element it's meant to be providing. As inconvenient as it is, it's not exactly game-ruining, but Capcom is already working on addressing and fixing it. While it doesn't say when a fix can be expected, it hopefully shouldn't take too long. The aforementioned save data bug took about a couple of weeks or so to address so, with any luck, this issue will be resolved within the same amount of time.

Earlier this week, Capcom also shared patch notes, which detailed fixes for other miscellaneous issues and bugs. This not only includes the save data bug, but also a couple related to riding Canynes (better known as Palamutes) set to the second Buddy slot and one that could cause the controls to stop responding entirely if a player used the Call Cohoot gesture while sat on a bench.

Monster Hunter Rise is still in its early days, with Capcom already promising more DLC and other updates down the line, similar to how it handled Monster Hunter World post-launch. Not only that, but the game is confirmed for a PC release as well, but it won't come out until sometime in 2022.

Monster Hunter Rise is available for Nintendo Switch.
