Interaction in the Field

While on a Quest or Expedition with other Hunters, you can give Items to other players by:
1. Opening the Item Pouch through Start Menu > Items and Equipment > Item Pouch
2. Highlighting an Item and Confirming
3. Choosing Give from the resulting dropdown menu and selecting the teammate and Item amount.
The Hunter will remain stationary while holding out their hand, and the recipient can then approach and take the item.

Hunters can also give their teammates recovery or performance-boosting Status Effects through the use of Items or with the Hunting Horn.

In addition to being able to help their teammates, Hunters can also hinder allies if they are careless. Weapon attacks often cause knockback to other players, ranging from small flinches to airborne throws. Airborne knockback can also be used to inflict mounting damage on a Monster, though it is best to coordinate beforehand.
